No calipers? What the hell, Bethesda! : V

I can't believe they took out callipers. How much more can they dumb the game down? I really miss all the things you used callipers for in Oblivion. At this rate, TES VI probably won't have tan jugs!

As long as they keep tankards and mead, I don't care.

Oh no. I just realized. There'll be no mead with juniper berries in TES VI

Lol, I was excited when I found Tongs, there's like only one of those in existence in the game o.o
at least as far as I know.

Calipers were a staple of Oblivion. Indeed the removal of calipers is an unconscionable dumbing down of the entire series.

At least brooms are still available.

I think this series went completely to hell at the moment they took my right to hoard spoons in my inventory away.

I think this is a small easter egg in reference to the Shivering Isles quest Work is Never Done where an NPC ask you to collect callipers for a project he is working on

But, now we have ancient Nord embalming tools. That's a major technological improvement. :geek:

Joking aside I am a little disappointed that silverware can't be picked up.

In Oblivion M'aiq also looks for calipers.

I was pretty stoked when I found a spigot. To bad you can't tap any barrels

Could be, but THAT quest itself is an easter egg in reference to the huge amount of complaints about oblivion and how everyone locks calipers behind very hard locks. So you wasted your time picking a lock for 10 minutes and all thats in the hardest lock around is 5 gold and a pair of calipers.
They added that quest in for shivering isles because it was one of the biggest complaints about vanilla oblivion.

you can steal Balbus' Fork, that's another thing I got excited about when he was killed and I searched him

although I'm not sure what it's for

Heh. I have found two references to calipers in the game. One is with M'aiq, naturally. The other was a pretty amusing convo.
