I think this is something Bethesda should do something about. When I walk into a tavern, I want it to be alive, not just a few random boring NPC's sitting att a table talking about the weather. I want taverns to be a place where you can find all kinds of interesting peoples. Where you can talk to Mercenaries about battles and job offers. Where you can listen to drunken conversations, and sometimes pick up unique info. I want it to be music, drunken nords hitting on the waitress and getting denied and being kicked out by the owner. I want to see scary looking npc's sitting in dark corners and talk about criminal activities. If you walk into the wrong tavern(owned by evil factions or something) you have to be on guard to avoid trouble, or make trouble. Off couse this is not the case if you are a professional bar brawler ^^ But offcourse there should be nice and cozy taverns too, just make the place alive Bethesda _________________ Jack-In-Irons on the official Bethesda forum

They'd also need rural local pubs for local people where "you can't stand there because that's where Fjorgerd stands and he'll be here in a minute" and the Nordic equivalent of the loud and boring man in the pink corduroy trousers who refers to Mrs Bore as 'the wife' that you seem to get in every single pub in England. Live music in the pubs would obviously be something I'd love as well - shanty bands in the harbourside towns and classic drinking songs and mournful mountain airs further inland, anyone? _________________ The Last Horse In The Sand of The Brotherhood.

Well, I agree with you on this matter. The inns and taverns were terribly boring in Oblivion. I loved when I discovered a new one, but I was always disappointed when I walked in to find out that the only guests would be a legion soldier... _________________ Avron the S'wit wrote: Hippie, you are too cool.

With that my character tends to drink a lot, yep I have a play an alcholic. Where is the blurred vision and delayed responses along with accidental or inccorectly cast spells! |

You're an old and weather-beaten traveller, stumbling through the snow and despedately looking for a place to stay. When you reach the inn, you are sccosted at the entrance by a young Orc, who claims that you can't enter unless you show that ou have the money to stay there. After refusing and insulting his weight, then eventually giving in and presenting your grubby Septims, he reluctantly lets you in. When you reah the bar and ask for a drink, you realise that the bartender is the father of the Orc outside, and boy is he not happy that you called his son fat. After finally convincing him to let you buy a pint of Hist Rage Ale, you sit down in the corner and get your surroundings. In the corner is a group of Nords shouting around a cockfight. A frustrated old Altmer sits in the corner, sipping on Tamika's and reading Alessia Ottus's latest novel. Eventually, you find yourself stuck against the wall chatting to the world's most boring Bosmer. Yeah, I could dig that. |

UESPoints: 0 | it would be so good for realism to add a bustle feel to the whole of the cities, picture carts going down a cramped, dirty road and people walking past them. the buildings completeley surround the road and there is a tavern at the top of the road, you can hear the chatter from outside. candle light from inside lights the windows with a dull yellow. when you go in there are many people talking and laughing. like the inn of the prancing pony in bree. |

Anyway, in Oblivion I found it unlikely that when you enter the an inn/tavern in the wilderness, the only social gathering point in miles around, you found perhaps two or three NPC's talking about vicious mudcrabs, or simply sitting around a table in silence. The inns definitely needs some re-working in Skyrim. Maybe, with the addition of bar-fights and gambling/betting? The taverns could also become a place for gathering information from slightly intoxicated Nords in quests? _________________ "A Bro never admits being unable to drive stick, even after an accident" |

If you actually listen, you might overhear someone who needs help with something, or maybe on the darker side, would pay good Septims to have something stolen, or someone killed. Being able to blend in would be great, too. I know this isn't Assassin's Creed or anything, but I should be able to grab a drink and sit down off to the side, completely inconspicuous. This would allow me to either escape a chase, or eavesdrop/spy on someone quest-related without them noticing. |

Some times Oblivion feels a bit quite for a medeavil (srry about spelling) town, I mean there should be more street braws, a hanging or execution, stalls on the streets, more beggers, pickpockets can steal from YOU. |

There should be on the random occasion that someone gets paranoid and starts a bar fight with one of the other local drunks. There should be bards singing songs and sharing tales and even in each Tavern, you find a unique NPC who will tell you interesting stories. There should also be mercs for hire and Assassins just sitting alone at the end of the tavern. _________________ My Cats Breath Smells Like Cat Food |

I love the idea about NPC's (and the player) getting drunk and singing and stumbling, hugging and fighting. Every tavern should have a guy like the one in Cheydinhal that lost his house. "Cliff racer fllllyyyyyyy soooooooooo hiiiiiiiiiiiiiigghhh". On a somewhat related note, one of the things I always hated in Oblivion was how if you went into your inventory and picked something to eat or drink, you never saw your character eat or drink, but you could see NPCs around you eating, drinking, sleeping, etc. I want more realism in the role playing! When I go into my room at the inn, I want to see animations when I eat dinner, read a book, take off my armor, and lay down to sleep. |

The inns and taverns in Oblivion just felt dead. Sure, they would have a few people in them, but they never really felt alive. I want lots of characters crammed inside (what's a tavern without having your personal space violated?), drinking, shouting, interesting NPC conversations, and a creepy old bartender with one eye that knows everything. Yup. That sounds about right. _________________ "I can see the whole of time and space. Every single atom of your existence, and I divide them. Everything must come to dust. All things.

Here are my ideas: The people and behivor would depends on the loctation; like in an orderly and rich town like Skingrad, the bars would also be orderly. The people would be freindly, willing to share a tale or too, give you tips on stuff like goblin hunting, and hire you to do stuff like deliveries and reserch. Fights would break out every now and then, the guards would come and break them up, and as long as you don't use weapons and/or magic, you won't get arested or fined. However, in a rough and poor town like Cheydinhal, the people would be rough, telling deeds of there recient "acheivements", give you tips on places to loot, and hire you to steal something or kill someone. Fights would break out left and right, and the gurds would use weapons to break them up. Bars not in towns would depend on the loctaion. NPC's there would depend on were they are when it gets dark or bad weather. Ones along the main roads would get more guests, but also have more guards that come there. Ones not along the main roads would be void of guard most of the time, but also most NPC's. Shadey people like mercinary's and theives would stay at these taverns, allow you to hire them at any time. _________________ Genesis Rhapsodos wrote: Even if the morrow is barren of promises -From LOVELESS act III |
