Rammundstein Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 (edited) I had this idea that a mod that more added silent dialogue options for the ''hero'' could really add something to the immersive side of the game. With the silent dialogue idea i'm obviously inspired by the likes of Bioware's older games, and i really think that adding more dialogue choices for Skyrim would be a great thing, but unfortunately i haven't the slightest idea of making my own mods, so that's why i have turned to you, in hopes that someone see this, and thinks ''wow, that is a good idea for mod'', and make it themselves.

BloodBond76 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Sounds like a cool idea.Do u mean that you won't more dialogue options for the player in the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammundstein Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Yes, just more dialogue for the player would be fine. :) The reason why i'm thinking of silent dialogue instead of spoken dialogue, it's just cause i would think it to be a lot easier to make in a mod.

MostlyMuggie Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I am not sure if this is what you are looking for, and it took some digging to find it since I forgot the name, but this mod gives a lot more dialogue options throughout the game. Non of it is voiced, but it is inspired from dialogue in Morrowind and Daggerfall. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/39143/? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammundstein Posted January 5, 2014 Author Share Posted January 5, 2014 Thanks, MostlyMuggie. I must admit i would prefer not to have a mod with silent dialogue to the NPC's, i think it takes a bit of the feel away from the game, if some NPC dialogue is voiced and some is not. Since the Dragonborn is already silent, i think it would be appropriate for him/her to have more silent dialogue options, the npc's could then maybe respond to the dialogue, although there would be some extra work on the NPC sound files to make it work correct. i'm sorry if it's me not explaining myself probably before. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that we do not have the original voice actors to make recordings for mod-added dialogue. Even if a modder made the voices, it would be weird if an NPC has 2 voices (original professional voices + modder's voice). In older RPG games, most NPCs just had text dialogue and maybe voiced greetings. Only important or quest NPCs were voiced. It was like this in Morrowind, and kinda like that in Fallout 1 and 2. That was always my favorite formula since:It lets me use my imagination and picture the characters voices and emotions which IMO was better than a voice actor on a stiff in-game face It was MUCH easier for modder's to make professional mods with dialogue.
