Halt! A Daggefall reference...

Post » Mon Jun 11, 2012 10:57 am

Has anyone else noticed how the Imperial guard female that you first see when you create a new character yells "Halt!" when that one prisoner tries to run away? Not sure if it's a coincidence or what, but it's nice to see a guard yell halt just like in Daggerfall. If you never played Daggerfall, check this out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18CGW9P5Y9M


Also check this out at 5:04 (the guard in Skyrim yelling halt): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxlaXhZvPvc

Oh, how I loathe the Daggerfall guards.
"HaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHaltHalt"
Again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.

Damn them to Oblivion. :stare:

I don't think so, Halt! is a common military/formal command. Would be cool though.

Saying halt is a kind of standard thing to say when someone tries to run away....

Funny to see the difference in graphics.

i don't really see how this is a daggerfall reference, halt is nothing special, it's a very commonly used term..

I bet Skyrim is a reference to the real world, because they speak english, they have houses, mountains, grass, men, fish, a lot of things that we have too!

Seriously, how stupid are you?

This is wear one of us pulls out a gun & shoots the other in the chest with their entire clip. Or the entire town is thrown into genocide. One of them.

On topic.

I don't see how it is a reference, it is a basic English term in a sense.
