There actually was an arena, well, it was actually more like a fighting pit, in Windhelm, that got removed.FootloosePhoenix said:I would add in Oblivion. And then take out Skyrim.
To actually contribute though, an arena. Bethesda goes through all the trouble of trying to make their combat system better, and succeeds at least in comparison to Oblivion, and then neglects to put in a combat-focused feature that the previous game had. I know the reason is because the land of Skyrim doesn't have a proper arena according to lore (which makes no sense to me considering the Nords are a warrior-centric race), but an underground scene would have been cool.
Yes they do have a connection to Cyrodiil however Falkreath used to be part of Cyrodiil until the borders were changed, so technically it would be within lore for Minotaurs to be in southern Skyrim and within reason seeing as the Falkreath hold has a very similar climate and plant life to the rest of Cyrodiil, so HA!

Dude, if I had the Two-Handed Sweep move in Minecraft I would be a very happy man.KissmahArceus said:Minecraft combat and Skyrim combat - so similar that it hurts. I love Minecraft but when it's combat is comparable to Skyrim then yeah, it needs improved. First person melee combat can be done (Riddick, Breakdown, Dark Messiah PC) but if it could make each weapon type feel unique and make our strikes feel weighty when they connect then YES
God no.erttheking said:I'd probably make the combat system more Dark Souls like. Not as hard, but with the same system, because run up and just swing your sword until the guys fall down isn't the best. Heck, when I think about it, fighting in Minecraft was more tense than Skyrim.
I said that I would prefer it. Especially since Skyrim's combat puts me to sleep. It's what I prefer, calm the Hell down.Saviordd1 said:God no.erttheking said:I'd probably make the combat system more Dark Souls like.

Can we please get over Dark Souls combat people? It's not the end all be all of RPG god; it had good combat but its not the jesus of games.
OT: I'd add characters like you said.
Also, FUCKING REACTIONS.
I ENDED the civil war, why are they still singing about it in bars?
Dragons are fucking everywhere, why does barely anyone react to it?
A werewolf tore through whiterun, that should be huge news.
Why is a guard telling me I should join the wizards guild (or whatever) when I'm wearing the archmage robes?
The game doesn't REACT to your accomplishments, its very immersion breaking.
So defend your opinion, then tell me to calm down about my opinion.erttheking said:I said that I would prefer it. Especially since Skyrim's combat puts me to sleep.

We're done here before this gets out of hand.
Even if the dragons were only as strong as the drakes in that game it would be much better. Of course then they wouldnt be able to throw them at you every time you walk around a corner.s69-5 said:You mean like this one?

OT: I'm fairly happy with Skyrim, even being an XBox fanboy such as I am, but the one thing that really bugs me is the marriage/family stuff, and most of Hearthfire. The housebuilding is mostly useful, but aesthetically godawful- the additions that actually match each other have little to no synergy with each other, meaning that if you want one house to be your primary base of operations, get ready to never be truly happy with it, especially if you want your family there.
Which brings me to my primary point. Hearthfire complaints aside, having a family feels less like having a family and more like a stat boost. This is all well and good if you're a munchkin, using the wife/husband to sell unwanted things, getting a food item, and then fucking off to the next dungeon crawl, but as a roleplayer it gives me fits. Shit, it'd be bearable if the option was there to just tell your spouse you love them. It wouldn't even be that hard, just modify some of the dialogue options to actually address the person you're speaking to. The best I can do is devote 0.3 lbs in my inventory to my wedding ring at all times, just for the sake of sentiment. There's something else, I guess; Having the ring either unenchanted, so I could throw something on it I'd use and wear it all the time, or have an enchantment on it that makes the case for wearing it at all times, like a spouse would.
