I know Festus was an A-Hole but MAN!

Post » Thu Jun 07, 2012 2:09 am

He didn't deserve that kind've a death.. holy crap!!! o.o

Spoiler
Just came back from killing the "fake" Emperor to find Festus literally pin-cushioned to a frikkin' tree! Like WOW! Overkill much? There's like 100 arrows in this dude.. man! I feel bad now for being an ass back, lol.

Yup..

I wish you could have saved the Dark Brotherhood. Especially considering that the three of the ones that die all appreciated the Old Ways of the Brotherhood, even if they remained loyal to Astrid. If nothing else, I'd have liked to have Veezara stick around. The Dark Brotherhood is the best written Guild in Skyrim but they lose some of their luster after the storyline completes because a lot of the characters you've come to like are no longer there.

Festus my favorite one. Dude was funny as hell and he was the only one that struck some emotion when he died and how he died. Man I will admit when I saw him when I came back I was in that crypt with a vengence agsint the troops and Astrid....I hope she gets repeatily mauled and in her forever burnt as body in the void having the only comfort of listening to Cicero caper and rant and talk nomstop....

YEAH that pissed me off. I didn't want Arnjborn to die... made me sooo mad when I saw it happen. I just came in and got to that area of the Sanctuary. He's in Beast Form just beasting out literally.. then 4 of the Penalatus Octulus or w/e there called dudes frikkin MASS swarmed him and took him down in a blink of an eye.

I was like "ARNJBORN NOOOOO!!!!"

OH YEAH you guys ever pay attention to a little tidbit? Ever notice how the Black dudes always the 1st to go in most movies/games crap like that? I found it HILARIOUS that Nazir was the only one who survived!! :D :D :D

(I knew Babette would.. I mean she's a frikkin Vampire afterall..)

I was mostly dissapointed that they went with the "Dark Brotherhood basically gets purified again" trope. I would have very much liked to instead findmy family members alive, and at the Dawnstar sanctuary, where I usurp astrid from her position in a glorious revolt at her dastardly betrayal. Gabrielle was a well spoken, and likeable mage. Festus, though old and crotchety, grew on you after awhile, and veezara was just a total bro, all things considered, the example being the Bridal assassination.

Also, I had basically JUST earned Arnbjorn's respect, and then he goes and dies. Pah.

So glad most of those psychos got eliminated. :P The only one I miss is Veezara. It would be him I'd say didn't deserve to die, and I'm glad Nazir survived. Festus and Arnbjorn were nut jobs.

Whats with all of these annoying spoiler tags?

Oh and Festus was great. I liked his personality. Too bad Bethesda took away the best characters in the dark brotherhood.

myrisk, Don't hate the Penitus Oculatus for doing what came natural. The Dark brotherhood attacked them first, not the other way around. Hate that filthy [censored] Astrid for back stabbing you. Shes the one that ratted you out to the Penitus Oculatus and to be captured by them after attempting to kill the emperor.

Cicero was right all along. Astrid is a pretender. In fact I had so much joy killing Astrid then I did with the PO.

This was pretty much why I just killed them off on my second playthough. I couldn't stand to live with Astrid's terrible leadership choices again. She's not worthy of leading the DB at all. She didn't care about the 5 tenants that they were founded on or even the Night Mother! Screw her; was happy to put her our of her misery right away. Now I just hope that Cicero and Babette reform the DB following the 5 tenants.

I was just thinking something... WTF was Festus even DOING outside? He was the only one out there.. and he's not the big and burly type like Arnjborn so I'm pretty positive he wasn't guarding the door. Lmao..

@buckom - Lol dude I'm no rascist at all, but when I notice stuff like this.. lil drop of it comes out. Heh.

i cannot save veezera nor gabriella nor festus, but arnjborn, i clearly rushed and killed the 2 agents before they even strike him down. He should have survived. But no, gamesas decided to kill him.
At least i have cicero with me. Two friends adventuring around skyrim, killing innocents and stuffing their pants in their mouth. i love DB

Tried saving him, twice by reloading. Either way he dies theres no saving him. Frikkin' BS!

Kinda wish I didn't kill Cicero now.. it's too damn quiet in the Sanctuary in Dawnstar. All you really ever hear are the people moanin' and groanin' in the Torture Room.

AND OMFG, I summoned Lucien and he won't go away and just keeps saying random (but still quite interesting) dialogue. But now I want to be alone.. I just went through Mzinchaleft (ALL OF IT).

Go away Speaker, your Listener commands it..

EDIT: I love Lucien though forreal <3. I like his voice actor alot kinda reminds me of those guys who narrate movie commercials.

Is there something wrong with me cause everytime i see DB i think DragonBall and not DarkBrotherhood.

But yeah it was sad, but when you think about it DB was basically a gang of mad muderers.
