LE Skyrim Immersive Exercise

[Spiderleg]

Summary tag line: Gain in game bonuses for working out in RL. Two birds with one stone!

 

Now that MCM has changed the landscape of mod configuration, Immersion is customizable. We can totally block out the outside world on our own terms and become the Dovahkiin. I like to play games but, unfortunately, they require me sitting down to do them. I also like to be toned like a Sundracon male in RL. I often forget to do my workout and then have to try to 'make up' my exercise routine later.

I propose a mod that allows you to put in a name for an exercise, (iron butterflies, jumping jacks, push ups, sit ups etc) a number of reps and a frequency. Something that could be reward based could be included (i.e. complete three quests and do X amount of push ups.) This could also be configured for things like remembering to walk the dog or take the kids to soccer practice (I don't have kids but I imagine they probably act as reminders themselves without the need for a mod)

 

So every time you would kill XX enemies or complete XX amount of quests or XX amount of time passes you are prompted with a little reminder that may or may not play a sound. You could then hit an accept button to "pause" the game and do your workout. IF you hit the cancel button then it would not penalize you below normal Skyrim stats but....

 

Once you complete 100 of any type of exercise in RL you could gain a reward like run speed increase or stamina increase or carry weight increase in game. If you skip the exercise you don't gain any workout XP and if you earned a bonus feature previously, once you skip 100 reps of anything you lose the last rank of bonus for that category. This would be entirely honor based and of course, the player could just lie. That doesn't matter. The target audience would be people who like the added incentive to get off their bums for a few and gain something in both RL and in game. It could even be merged with mods that progressively make your character more buffed out.

 

All features could be customizable through MCM.
