Selling an outfit, Here if anyone wants to check it out




Well it looks like someone must have bought it already.

So the whole outfit thing, you just throw an outfit together and then charge whatever price? What's to stop someone from simply buying the items separately for cheaper? Eh I guess convenience?

Indeed, you put together an outfit, save it in your outfit section, then upload it to the outfit marketplace and whatever price you think is fair. At the start listing on the OM didn't have an option to check which items where on said outfit. Loads of people BAWWWED that this would increase the rates people were scammed into spending lots of gold for cheap items, so they have added in a option to view what items make up the outfit. Now while some people could hunt down each item and thus make that outfit they like, not everyone knows every item. So more or less its about being able to acquire a nice looking outfit fast.

sweet. seems like a cool concept, my only comment is that well damn before you could I suppose copy someone elses avatar though I'm not sure how many people do that... now if you look at someone's avatar you can't necessarily think 'they are so creative for throwing that together!'

That "fear" of having you avatar "stolen" was the counter to the "we need to see what items are listed to prevent scams" option.

Vampires confirmed in a new Skyrim preview at RipTen.


I'm really hoping that were-creatures (namely werewolf's) are also an option in Skyrim.

"Just finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
It... was epic. I seriously spent HOURS just exploring and stuff, and some of the 'missions' took me over two hours to do, and I did not notice the time pass at all(As in, it didn't feel like I was being dragged about aimlessly).
I also did fairly well at stealth, considering I usually suck at it.

The Xbox can finally get a rest for the first time in three days, since my siblings and I were taking shots and our sleep patterns are different(it seriously has only been turned off once since I got Deus ex, and only for about 20minutes.)
Now... I can go back to waiting for Skyrim.

Not related at all to your post, but very nice avatar Deranged ;3
And glad you like your game. I haven't played anything new in a long while, just been getting achievements for DAII. Think I'm going to try 'em for all my games.

DA:O Harvester on Nightmare.
Sounds like so much fun...

"Ahah, thanks.

Playing a game to get achievements doesn't satisfy me, I mean sure, I do it sometimes half-heartedly but I can't get into a game just to do that.
So yeah, my gamerscore is crap.
Then again, I'm the sort of lazy guy who doesn't particularly enjoy challenges... I generally play games on the easiest difficulty, even if I know I'll do well on it anyway.

Considering there were supposed to be were-lions in Oblivion I wouldn't get my hopes up.

I must have forgotten that little detail. I do remember that the entire environment of Cyrodiil. From the 1st Edition Pocket Guide:

It is the largest region of the continent, and most is endless jungle. Its center, the grassland of the Nibenay Valley, is enclosed by an equatorial rain forest and broken up by rivers. As one travels south along these rivers, the more subtropical it becomes, until finally the land gives way to the swamps of Argonia and the placid waters of the Topal Bay. The elevation rises gradually to the west and sharply to the north. Between its western coast and its central valley there are all manner of deciduous forest and mangroves, becoming sparser towards the ocean. The western coast is a wet-dry area, and from Rihad border to Anvil to the northernmost Valenwood villages forest fires are common in summer. There are a few major roads to the west, river paths to the north, and even a canopy tunnel to the Velothi Mountains, but most of Cyrodiil is a river-based society surrounded by jungle.

What we got in Oblivion was a generic English fantasy country side. That is why I loved the Shivering Isle so much more than the actual man game. It brought back that exotic fantasy world that Morrowind had.

I play for the story first but I get bored very, very easily so I like to spice things up a bit. Normally I like a good challenge too. I'm also a perfectionist. Very hard to let that go.

But you're not alone on difficulty, I'm just now playing normal in DAII. I sort of hate it a bit.

Yeah, I'm not sure what book it was but I remember that it was a book, could've been on diseases, that said something about were-lions and I distinctly remember something about were-sharks...

I've said it before, Oblivion was soulless. Shivering Isles I am glad I played, well except for the canonical shitstorm that is "Sheogorath is Jyggalag, Sheogorath may have been also been Arden-Sul as well as others. You are now Sheogorath." I liked the idea of becoming a daedric prince in the end but first of all, with my Champion in place he wouldn't be the lord of madness for much longer. He would probably become the patron god of good vampires, good and noble people who have become pariah, and Spellswords, Nightblades and Battlemages.
Second, my favorite prince, character wise, is no longer going to be playing a meaningful part in the series. Leastwise not if Beth want's to maintain that whole arc as cannon...

EDIT: I found the book. It's On Lycanthropy by Varnard Karessen.
Here's the aforementioned excerpt:

"In Black Marsh and southern Morrowind, werecrocodiles stalk the swamps. Black Marsh also shares with the Imperial Province and the wetter parts of Elsweyr the vile presence of werelions. Valenwood's werevultures are not found in any other province. The wereboar has found both the climates of High Rock and Hammerfell amenable. As I mentioned before, the werebear is the most common lycanthrope in Skyrim, and is also found in the northern parts of High Rock, the Imperial Province, and Morrowind. The werewolf can be found in every province. The seventh lycanthrope, which I have never seen but my trusted peers have assured me exists, is a wereshark that roams the oceans around Tamriel."

I knew about werecrocodiles as the mention them in the TES book The Infernal City as most of the 1st book takes place down in Black Marsh. Well maybe we will get a werebear in Skyrim, but like you said I doubt it unless that's one thing they wish to keep under-wraps.

Well Skyrim is set 200 years in the future so you never know what's in store canon wish for Sheo. A lot of things can change in 200 years. The hero from Morrowind will still be the Nerverine as the corpus keeps him/her from aging. But the hero of Cyrodill that's a big IF, seeing as your powers as Sheo only work while ur in the Shivering Isles, but that could just be a game mechanics thing.


I have to admit I really did love the Scottish Sheo, I know loads of people didn't like that but it made me giggle so poo on them. Azura is still my favorite Daedric Prince and I do hope that in some game we will be able to visit her realm of Oblivion.
