How marriage should work : V

This is how I think marriage should work in skyrim if it is to be realistic as marriage in the world with divorces and raising children and maybe take your mate with you on some adventures or something or try to simulate real life situations that could work in skyrim without going too overboard

Just don't let Steven Segal write the script. Your family will be murdered and you'll have to spend the rest of the game tracking them down and killing them.

Okay. With you so far.

with divorces

But doesn't the entire conceot of divorcing a character when you're bored with them cheapen or defeat the point of marriage.

I'm married. I took vovs. You're supposed to keep them. That's marriage.

and raising children

Could work. But who'd look after them? Your parter at home I guess. They'd be a pain in the backside while questing.

and maybe take your mate with you on some adventures or something

You can do that now, with several companions. Depends who youmarry.

or try to simulate real life situations that could work in skyrim without going too overboard

But then it becomes lers of an RPG and more of a people simulator. We already have one of those on the market. It's The Sims. Why try to do that?

If it adds to immersion and makes it more real, I'm all for it. Skyrim has quite a long way to go before it risks being too much like The Sims. If Bethesda could do the romances like Bioware did it in Dragon Age (Origins, not DA2), I would be very happy.

It was the emphasis on making things 'realistic' in a fantasy game I had a problem with. TES isn't a simulator. Romances in the style of DA:O would be a posaitive improvement in my book. I totally agree with that.
