studded and scale armor

Post » Tue Jun 26, 2012 3:27 pm

The dovahkiin armor in the trailer and the wallpaper of skyrim shows that the studded armor have something to cover the sides of the character's legs. which is pretty cool but i dont really like how it shows the side of ur legs in the games. sometimes when u crouch, ur right knees even stick out from the armor. Dont get me wrong, i really like the look of studded armor and scales one, and the horned scale one too but im just bugged by the fact that it reveals the side of my legs as if im some kind of kinky guy who likes to show off my legs. it looks great on a female version like most of the armor in this game do. but for a guy it just feels weird to be showing the sides of my leg while im walking around. Look at this version of the studded armor in the skyrim wallpaper for example http://skyrimfansite.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Skyrim-Wallpaper-1.jpg it actually covers the legs and looks like something u would wear in the snow even if it has no sleeves but ur legs still feel warm while ur wearing it. I mean it would all work out find if they still have greaves or pants. Or atleast if they're gonna make 1 piece of body armor then make sure to actually covers most of the "body" part. I am not saying that they have to change it cuz its probably the least of their worries at this point, I get that. but im just asking like do u guys think that they planned this out from the start with the designing of the armor like this? Are you guys ok with the way the studded, scale, and horned scale looks right now? Is this what u guys expected its going to look like when u guys bought the game? I jst wanna hear other people opinion on this and how u guys think about it?? But either way i still :tes:

Well, I really dont like most of the armor, partially for what you're talking about. Light armor looks kind of ridiculous in that it looks like your half naked most of the time. Pretty ridiculous since you're in a cold environment. Some of te heavy armor is alright ( I like steel, dwarven, and ebony mail. Other than that, you're a half makes barbarian or an evil overlord in spikes. Kinda svcks. Need more light and heavy armor options imo for each material. Won't happen ( unless you play on PC ) but I can dream.

For such a big game, im pretty disappointed with the armor overall. Pretty weak selection.
