How is it possible to have a proper bath if you aren't naked?

 

 

Most of us have probably done it one time or another in a public pool, so it is possible. It could even be justified by making public baths the norm in the Cyrodiilic Empire, after all it is based on Rome which had lots of public baths (though people did not wear anything in them of course). But I guess pixelation/black bars should be used instead of underwear for both bathing and sex...

Maybe it's because the children of the people who make these kinds of stupid rules are much more likely to actually have premarital or otherwise "sinful" sex than to actually behead or gut people. So more effort is put into the prevention of the more likely "sin"?

 

I must say it's ironic that this cycle of belief that outside factors like games and music can 'corrupt' young people still exists. 50 years or so ago people thought Elvis was going to corrupt their children with his music. Almost 20 years ago Mortal Kombat was supposedly going to corrupt children due to the violence in it.

 

It's the same bulls*** over and over.

 

The ultimate irony is that all these obsessive and over-protective parents seem to forget that abusive / bad parenting has produced more serial killers and sexual sadists than video games and fiction ever will.

In Skyrim they have hot springs, quite a lot of them. And there's a whole bunch of hunters running around naked since my sneakthief pinched all their clothes while they frolicked...

 

I've never been in any public baths, they simply don't exist where I am. As for the hot tubs at private health clubs, if it is a single sex session the cozzies tend to get left off.

 

Still don't buy the idea of pixellation of rude bits. Nude mods for me!

I'll bet the "NO" votes are all Americans. Americans are such prudes. Violence is perfectly fine and dandy, but hang a boob out there and "OH MY GOD, GET IT AWAY!!!!" I am an American and it makes me shake my head.

 

 

I'm from England and I see no point in it at all...

 

Moralities aside, apart from adding some sort of titterlation for those young enough to have not seen a naked woman before, what possible purpose does it serve in this game!?

Why are we just talking about bewbs? And by the way, I'm female, fifty and have seen plenty of nudity. Personally I find it to be a natural state to be nekkid once you take your kit off (no I am not talking about being a naturist, there's a time and a place for nudity and the street, the office, in public in general is not it) and feel that it's somewhat unhealthy to be so scared of what we all have.

 

So if my toon is out adventuring, she is to be seen either in light armor or a mage tunic. If she decides to bathe in a hot spring, she gets naked. If she sleeps in a bed in her own home, she sleeps naked. At an inn, she's more cautious. To me that's the purpose of it. To roleplay in a certain way.

I voted no. Why? Because it's not needed. Any argument for it revolves around roleplay, in which case you need to seriously re-evaluate your roleplay goals, cut out the middle man, and just get some porn instead of living in denial and crapping up the internet.....or just wanting "Hur hur naked peeple" because it's titillating. Bravo in the second case for being honest, slimy as it is, but shove off and find some porn because Bethesda is making a game here.

 

Yeah, we need nakedness to roleplay properly. Funny how that argument is only used for nudity and not fully animated dumping. Or being in battle and thus your armour so long you have no choice to soil yourself. Or everyone being a dirty, stinking, and most certainly very hairy medieval mess no modern first worlder would ever want to see naked.
