LE Radiant waterworld

[Plankbreaker]

Greeting viewers,

 

As you all must have seen, skyrim's lands flourish with life yet its underwater world (which takes quite a major part of the map) is left almost utterly dry or wet in its case.

What i would like to see and most of you would - A massively diverse waterworld.

 

Just to name a few suggestions - More marine creatures (the slaughterfish is great but lacks more oomph) such as aquatic serpents, schools of small fish (minnows), prehistoric sharks and rays (bonyfish),

mammals (including horkers which dont have swimming animations) orcas, seals and whales, seabed crawlers not limited to just mudcrabs, prawns and lobsters maybe? (someone could include them in food recipes too)

and giant (dragon proportions or bigger) amphibian bosses, and not to forget small animals as well, frogs and newts (giant ones as enemies), snails, slugs and a modified aquatic version of the frostbite spider would kick a**! :biggrin:

 

Varied plant life, excluding the massively common seaweed beds found everywhere,

corals beds perhaps? Mostly near shipwrecks or other sea-based structures, and one of my personal favourites, ancient submerged ruins accessable only by diving.

Removing that disgusting underwater smog would also be great, make it less swampy and more sea-e, more blue, deep and dark at the depths and light at the surface with rays of sun passing through.

 

And finally, improved and more radiant (immersive) swimming styles, no more leaning to the right while swimming. (you know what i mean)

I was also dissapointed with the argonians swimming style, since they are partly reptilian, they should have more of a crocodile or even snake like swimming animation,

not only that, most of you players out there may have noticed that the games definition of current moves only in one continues direction, which is a major drawback since skyrim is such a great game, so to recap, more dynamic water currents and force without breaking gameplay or visual appeal.

 

Ill also be sketching up some ideas and uploading the images soon.(mostly creatures)

 

Good suggestions and comments are always appreciated.

Plankbreaker.
