Ambient interaction?

Post » Thu Nov 01, 2012 7:28 am

I was walking around my house the other day and noticed my wife leaning over a railing. And I've seen people sitting on rocks and hay bales, places that I can't sit on. I was wondering if Bethesda might make a patch giving the player the option of interacting with more objects, for more immersion. I'm sure there's a mod for that, but I'm an Xbox player, so no modding for me.
Some other ideas:
  • Playing instruments (maybe for money)
  • Brushing your horse
  • Washing your face/hands
  • Polishing Armor
I know only the first one is actually in the game right now (albeit NPC only), and the others would be part of DLC, not just a free patch, but I think it would be cool to have a more personal approach to the game.

Thoughts?

It would be neat to have an interaction button. I'm on PC but I would still prefer a professional non-spell way of going about it.

I can understand that they don't allow the player to sit everywhere, I fear the screen would constantly be cluttered with 'Sit on Hay', 'Sit on Corpse', 'Sit on rock' and 'Sit on pile of cow dung' whereever I look.

Idle animations would have been nice. If you don't like it, don't do it.
