Way to completely ruin my immersion!

I have had to exclusively play in the rift with light fur armor, and even that is pushing the limit. My char is speced for Heavy! It's a total gamebreaker!

Loyal to the fans of the Northern Hemisphere maybe, but what of us Southern folk?

Close your window blinds, turn off the light and put your feet into a bucket of ice-water.

That ought to do it ...

Best thread ever.

Only thing that would improve this thread is a poll about the option to include, at no additional cost, complete player immersive system that dynamically alter the local atmosphere to match Skyrim's in game conditions.

Seriously you can't tell if the person with a PINK ELEPHANT for an avatar has made a joke thread or not? :lmao:

I literally spent a month and a half outside in the Yukon wilderness playing Skyrim with a TV and my Xbox running on a car battery.


That's immersion.

Close the blinds ...

I live on the second driest continent in the world and we frequently have temperature of 40 degrees Celsius in the summer months. And I have zero problem with game weather being the opposite to real-life weather. Why? BECAUSE ITS A VIDEO GAME.

I sincerely hope that the OP is trolling though ...

That's immersion.

Take it a step further, when you get killed by a swarm of Snow Bears, head up to the arctic circle and poke a Polar Bear's eye out to totally immerse yourself in full sensory simulation. You can't say you're hardcoe until you've passed out the other end of a bear's intestine.

OP is right, they could have made a DLC on the beaches of Valenwood. I'm tired of all this snow, srsly guise.

You can also try to travel to the Artic in the peak of winter, dress with a fur cloth and jump in to the water, you will feel the cold there, I can assure! Then if you survive, you can resume playing, you will remember that cold water for the rest of your life , Again.. if you survive

ROLFLMAO!!!!! Wow! Like seriously just wow.... this is like the most (lack of intelligence) thread that I have ever read. I can't tell if your being serious honestly but if you want to be in an environment like Skyrim here is my advice...

Skin a bear, dress yourself up in "bear" armor and move up to the northpole. Go kill another bear or something...

I'm gonna give you some advice here. When a Pink Elephant starts talking about temperature immersion. The thread is fake.
