[REQz] No more chiors!

Okay, I get it, it's an epic fantasy.

But if I'm fleeing from dragon 183, since I have no time to deal with it and don't desire to kill the silly bugger anyway, it's entirely inappropriate to have the game screaming about the Dovahkiin in my ears. In fact, half the time it's doing that it's inappropriate.

Okay, I get that it's an epic fantasy and that you want to make Conan parallels. But the last thing I want is that, and likewise, the last thing I want when I level up is "HUU HUU HWAAAAH!". Seriously. Besides, that just sounds like those Nords in Sovngard are really going at it up there. After a while you do begin to wonder. There's just so much of this going on too that isn't related to the shouts.

With the shouts alone, I think that's enough, but the shouts and the rest of it is just too much.

I love the setting of Skyrim, but I think that the obsessive pokes by the devs are a bit over the top. "Look, it is like Conan!" they yell. "Look, it is like Braveheart!" they exclaim, showing me a certain loading screen. It's sometimes just a bit too much and it does do a lot to ruin the atmosphere. The loading screen is tolerable (you know which one it is), but the endless shouting and shouty choirs which have nothing to do with dragon shouts aren't.

So, let's recap!

It'd be really nice if the following were replaced with instrumentals:

- The title music.
- The music that plays when a dragon appears.
- The music that plays when we encounter a draconic word.
- The music that plays when we level up.

I don't even know if instrumental versions of those exist though.

Anyone else feel the same way? Just putting that out there as a thought, anyway. I wish that this was something that I could look into, but I'm not a musically talented person and I'm not sure how their new music formats work. I've only just gotten into poking things with TES Snip.

(Silly typos: They have been fixed. Well, some of them, anyway.)

thats probably really easily done just by unpacking one of the sound BSAs, replicating the folder structure inside the Data folder and placing whatever music files you want (in the correct format) in the correct positions (like a texture mod or those swearing mudcrabs)

you could even use this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gyCFuP3rM2w :P

you could probably do it yourself in a sunday afternoon :)

I think you can just replace and rename the music files you want play instead of the original ones.


Well, that reminds me I want the game play Mot?rhead's In the Year of the Wolf while I'm in the Beast Form
