Skyrims mass murderer or misunderstood soul?

Post » Thu Jun 07, 2012 2:30 pm

Okay, so inadvertently I have been dragging NPC's from the warm cockles of the fires of the inn's and homes they inhabit and in the heat of combat murdering them. Does that make me Skyrim's serial killer? I even went as far as turning into a werewolf and devouring my housecarl Lydia in an attempt to stave off the falmer attacks just so I could keep the bloodlust going. Poor Vorstag got a mace to the head as he fenced of against Red Eagle and Cosnach got impaled with bolts of ice from these very hands typing this. Along the way I have also been luring hapless priests and then murdering them (one for the cannibal covern and one for the demon Molag Bal). Things are not looking good. I certainly didn't intend when starting Skyrim to be this cold, heartless monster that devours dead corpses for health gains. I planned on being the benevolent hero who was going to rush in and save the cities and towns from the dragons and the evil forsworn. I was going to scour each and every inch of tunnel and remove the scourge that is a Falmer...now I am starting to feel like the real monster in the game is me :(

Hey, whatever ticks you off! I used to invite prosttutes in my car in GTA: san andreas and then I'd drive towards a bridge or building's ledge or a cliff, and jump out and watch the car rolling down the way with the poor [censored] inside. :P

And to spice things up you spawn an alduin on the other side of town and see where the people flock to :D

You're a terrible human being. :tongue:

On my Bandit character (strictly PC only) I spawned a group of bandits and we raided Rorikstead togather and killed every one (apart from the kids) and I decorated the street with their dead bodies. :devil:

It's a pity the game doesn't have a proper morality system in place where by the more bad ass you become the quests that enhance your goodie factor start to taper off and vice versa.

Also would be great if the game recognised your rise in ranks. Its okay to get the lip early on in the game but as you progress it would be nice for NPC conversations reflected this
