The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim: Question!

[NR90]

Hello, I know there's already a thread about this game but I have a question. In your opinion, will it be okay to play this game?

 

[Dark_Lite]

Yes.

 

[blarg the 2nd]

why would it not be?

 

[SonOfTheWest]

The only thing wrong is if you DON'T play this game!

 

[NR90]

why would it not be?

Blood and Partial Nudity.

Blood and Partial Nudity.

well if god made people he built blood into us violence may not be good but blood is not bad and if your going to have violence i see no reason to pretend its cleaner then it is

nudity is not bad either religions tend to be more concerned with lust and only frown on nudity because it may encourage it


the way i see it the game will give you a choice when it comes to violence you can attack any one for you own gain or you can only attack those who harm you and others

and most people will probably have clothes on( its the cold up north after all ) im not sure you can even completely strip an npc but likely most of the time people will have things on as long as you dont sit around staring and getting off on anything it will probably be OK

if you want the game to be more morel by your standards play morally by your standards

Blood and Partial Nudity.

My opinion is that television and video games are simply a form of entertainment, and unless it negatively affects how you act or view the world, then it is fine. If your conscience is crossing you when you play, then don't play, at least not until you settle things within yourself. There's nothing wrong with that.

That being said, entertainment in general is just like anything else; too much of a good thing is bad. That statement is biblical, but I believe the principal applies to everybody, no matter what their beliefs are.

 

[Crujir]

if you want the game to be more morel by your standards play morally by your standards

I have to agree with that statement, too. Once again, if your conscience crosses you when you play, don't play. If it only crosses you when you perform a certain act in the game, then don't do that in the game.

What about the magic in this game? Is it okay?

 

[Dark_Lite]

What exactly are you afraid of? It's a fantasy game. Fantasy games have magic.

What about the magic in this game? Is it okay?

i didn't have to do anything bad because i used magic in the last game for all i know its just an ability people have in the games

some of the summons are sentient in last game but im not sure how they feel about it so you might not want to summon much in this game ( though in the expansion to last one you kind of become a god to a couple types of summons since they exist to serve your will its probably ok to use them
dying and going to the deeps of oblivion scares golden saints and dark seducers but there immortal and they will reincarnate but again you serve and become there god so only apply to them

but other then possibly summoning magic seems to be only as bad or good as the purpose you use it for

 

[blarg the 2nd]

ok your going to absorb the sols of dragons to power your special ability's in sky rim

on the other hand there servants of a god who plans on eating the world

just hope the twist is not that you become this destroyer once you consume all the dragons

What exactly are you afraid of? It's a fantasy game. Fantasy games have magic.

I'm just checking if it's okay to use because the Bible says magic is wrong. But then again, fantasy magic i think is not remotely close to real magic.

 

[blarg the 2nd]

what real magic?

 

[NR90]

The magic God warns us not to dabble in.

 

[NR90]

And what are your thoughts on the leveling system being that you look to the stars to level up using constellations.

My thoughts are that maybe you should stop worrying about this or just not play the game if you're that concerned that God will smite you for playing it.

 

[NR90]

I already got the game bought and I would like to play it.

Then just play it or take it back? You read far too much into fantasy. I'm half expecting you to ask if killing NPCs in the game is okay because god says not to murder in the 10 commandments.
