I want to befriend a giant : V

I'm just saying... If you can actually manage to

Spoiler

sell a goat

to a giant then it's plausible that you can be friends with one or maybe several. Would love to spend time chilling in front of their bonfire.

Would make a decent life guard.

It's part of a quest

All that heavy breathing would make me kill him myself. BTW where are the female giants? I'd love to see one .....................

I tried to befriend a giant once, then I took a club to the head.

I also wish I could befriend giants, but they seem to think otherwise.

i did this as well, then went flying 50 feet the other way.

I ordered my companion to give a giant a big hug. Instead, she went flying 50 feet over a cliff face, splattering on the ground below. :biggrin:

If it's for a mod, I don't know but in game maybe there is a way to do it. I imagine that we can add a giant of our choice to the player ally faction by using this command:

addtofaction 0005A1A4 3

(the 3 represent the "ally" rank in the action) after having clicked on the giant? I'll give it a try once.

You can befriend pretty much any living creature you encounter. Just make sure you're not too close, when the, um... spell, wears off :tongue:

Does the 'calm' spell work on giants at all? Never tried it.

» Mon Jun 11, 2012 9:44 pm

If Frenzy works on them, so does Calm. But they cap at lvl32, so have the appropriate leveled spell if you're in that range.

Would be interesting. One would wonder whether the mammoths would get jealous though.

» Mon Jun 11, 2012 5:50 pm

Lol yeah i agree with you.
I mean can they even speak? i want them to not just be enemies,I want them to talk and be friendly.

Yeah, they can speak. You never really hear it in-gane though.
In Daggerfall you could learn yourself Giantish and they are the ones naming the Dwemer Dwarves, as they were the first race to encounter them.

Ive found a couple of non hostile giants wandering around , they just look at me and help me kill dragons :0

Do that. It's an amazing game, if you can overcome somewhat repetitive side-quests and graphics.
You can easely use 5 hours in one dungeon, as they are so huge and confusing.

Yeah, yesterday i come across a farmer who wanted to give his painted up cow to a giant and i thought, how come I cant buy a cow, paint it up and then get some giant peeps?

» Mon Jun 11, 2012 6:15 pm

would be awesome if they hopped on the mammoth and followed you

or sold you a ton of that cheese for cheap if you did something for them ....

» Tue Jun 12, 2012 6:59 am

Tried it myself. Even took his hard-earned mammoth cheese. Neither he, or his mammoths raised an eyebrow.

» Mon Jun 11, 2012 5:02 pm

I despise Giants. Ever since I saw a dead Khajiit among the wreckage of a coach near a giant's camp do I despise them. They only need to look at me funny and I go mad on them. They are hideous, mammoth-cheese loving creatures of evil. :swear:

» Tue Jun 12, 2012 2:58 am

It could have been near that dead Khajiit salesman, there was a notice that authorities negotiated with the giant and he was allowed to live here. Cititzens should stay away.

I'm not quite sure if I'd like to befriend them, they're rather friendly most of the time, but I have a feeling that they smell terrible.

This reminds me. On my first play through a giant was my first death because I wanted to talk to him. Good times....good times.
