Arts/Crafts Need help naming my new Hero of Kvatch OC

0 Upvotes

I'm still designing his outfit, but for now I want to try and get some ideas of names for my new HoK that I'm working on!

And I do have some vague ramblings, if people need more details about the character to think of a name :P

They're still not fully developed as I'll be developing them as I do a new play through of the game, but so far I have down that they grew up in Bruma, likely at least tried their hand at magic to an extent (still not sure how far that goes yet), but focuses mostly on archery and swords for combat, so most likely some kind of spellsword type.

As for factions, I'm leaning thieves guild in their youth, then turned towards the dark brotherhood later on, and then the main questline + DLCs. Not sure if they'll do the mage guild yet.

Personality-wise is trickier cuz I haven't played him yet and these things tend to just kinda show themselves as a I play, but I imagine someone who is usually closed-off with their personal life, hesitant to open up, but masks it behind an air of confidence which he uses to talk himself out of situations.

Likely having put the Dark Brotherhood behind him at least a few years ago before the start of the game, he is trying to right previous wrongs and tries to help others when possible. Though is likely to fall back on old habits sometimes and could be a bit more standoffish than intended sometimes, especially if his pride gets hurt.

Original Discussion Should i play Oblivion Remastered or The OG moded

0 Upvotes

i have an outdated graphics card rocking a GTX 1660 Ti im expecting the remastered to run very poorly on medium to high settings and i want to start playing Oblivion so i need help

should i buy the remastered version and see how it runs or get the OG and mod it since im not a fan of the old blurry graphics on it, and if so which modlist is the best to keep the vanilla experience while enhancing the visuals and implement fixes.

Video Day 548 of Pally and Me’s Adventure until I can loot his armor. Pally is scamp-minded

15 Upvotes

It was nice enjoying a quiet walk in the woods. But I knew I couldn’t leave Pally alone for long. Especially with responsibilities! Turns out I didn’t have to worry. The blue fire kept their attention… wait, why is the fire blue? 🙀

Like Pally, like Scamp. I think he’s starting to like the scamps. They remind him of, well, him! No thoughts behind those eyes just pretty colorful fires to look at. Might want to check this place out. I’m curious why it has blue fires. Pally just likes the color blue cause he likes sleeping in Ayleid wells.

Hail citizens. Currently the scamps don’t attack unless attacked so I’ll have to use my command animal spell so they aggro properly. Now I’m gonna have 4 angry kids and a Pally scampsitter! Nothing bad can happen it can only good happen!

Remaster Discussion Need a doggo!

5 Upvotes

Anyone know of a way to get a dog/wolf companion in remastered? Is there a way of abusing the command creature spell to make it permanent? Or another exploit?

I’m on Switch 2. No console codes or mods. And don’t talk to me about that awful looking skinned hound. I need fur 😂

Thanks all. I’m not hopeful after all my experiments have failed so far but thought it’s worth an ask!

Landscape Screenshot Almost unbelievable that this game came out last century. Let's not forget how good the graphics were during the time period (yes, I know this is the remaster).

Original Question Is glarthir crazy or is he actually right?

223 Upvotes

I remember there being basically no evidence pointing to him being right... but then I remembered skingrad has a bunch of weird shit going around it like the mythic dawn sleeper agent and the vampires.

I also remember there being an hour long video discussing this that I wanted to watch but I tried looking and couldn't find it today.

Could someone just break it down for me? I've played oblivion like twice and I know someone here has a million hours and knows every detail lol.

Original Question "Whodunit?"

15 Upvotes

So I'm going through the dark brotherhood quest line and I'm here at the famous "whodunit?" Quest. Of course I'm going for bonuses, so I'm taking my time, really listening to the characters and dialogue because it'a been well over a decade since playing this game. We'll, I thought I'd go ahead and take care of Neville first si he doesn't put on his armor (not that it's really an issue, but role play reasons). I head downstairs to talk with the other guests, see what my options are and I start with Noble nepo baby Primo Antonius, in the background I see Dovesi Dran, in freeze frame having just summoned a zombie. I'm laughing to myself about the absurdity and finish up the dialogue with Primo, I move onto old lady Petite, finish up her dialoge and in the background see Dovesi kill Primo, with Nells the Naughty, slumped along the wall, dead. Apparently Dovesi killed him first while I was walking towards Matilda Petite.

I went to speak with Dovesi, and her dialogie is normal, she is surprised about the deaths of Primo and Nels, even though she killed them. This leads to the reason of this long winded post. Has anyone experienced this sort of thing during this quest, or have an idea what triggered it?

TLDR: Killed Neville first and Dovesi Dran randomly bugged out and killed 2 other guests while feigning ignorance and curious if it happened to anyone else.

Edit: A typo here and there and a butchering of Primo's surname.
