there's no such thing as role-playing in skyrim, you can get all of the skills to 100 on any character.
>>
>>344548465
Theres hardly any roleplay in this game at all. Any roleplay you want to have has to be super imposed based on your own arbitrary limitations. There is no good and evil, you can't smite half the evil shit in the game because its all quest-line characters.

That was not funny. You didn't actually laugh.

you can do the same in real life if you're not a drop kick mate

You can even choose to never have dragons and never be the dragonborn in Skyrim.

Has anyone managed to breed level-scaling out of Skyrim/Oblivion through modding yet?

It's the one aspect that constantly keeps me from reinstalling.

Play a game that facilitates RP rather than being oblivious or hostile to such an approach.
>>
>>344549068
That's what I never understood about Skyrim. You kind of go on a rampage in Markarth, you can purge the Dark Brotherhood, but you can't do shit in Riften.
>>
>>344549286
list actual open world games that allow RP or never post again
>>
>>344549019
no you can't. you have to dedicate time and effort to mastering a skill in real life. you only get one life, you can't master everything.
>>
>>344549357
>you can't master everything
loads of people have, elon musk or bill gates are good examples
>>
>>344549520

Bill Gates can't ride a unicycle.
>>
>>344549351
Define open world, because open world seems scattered locations on a map, by that definition pretty much every 2000's RPG game.

you already know what open world means in this context, just list what you think is a better alternative to skyrim for RP
>>
>>344549520
nobody can master every skill. let's see Elon Musk smith a set of ebony armor and then we can talk.

>Can't roleplay in Skyrim

What the fuck is this meme? I roleplayed as a sneak-illusion-dagger-thief in my 1st playthrough.

No one is autistic enough to level every skill to 100.
>>
>>344550083
Previous Elder Scroll games for starters.
>>
>>344550083
Witcher 3.

>>344550235
but technically with enough money you can be the MASTER of that skill, like he could pay somebody to make it

you dont neccesarily need to know how to make armor if you have enough money to get someone else to make it, that's how he's could be the master of all skills because infinite money = infinity ability to pay for other peoples skills to benefit you

Requiem for Skyrim gets rid of the level scaling I believe, but it's kind of excessive in my experience, and it makes it kind of boring as shit because the game was just made from the ground up to scale with your character.
>>
>>344550432
barely any difference desu
>>344550438
>Witcher 3
but you already have an established history in the witcher series
that's like telling me to RP in half life; how am i supposed to make my own story if the game has already made it for me
>Skyrim
in comparison you're literally just told you were arrested by the imperials, the rest is up to you
with that you can ACTUALLY rp
>>
>>344550438
Can I just build a house and make jewelry and live with my wife in TW3?
>>
>>344550470
then we're not talking about the same thing. i was saying that it's impossible for one person to master every skill, which is true, because 100 years is not enough time.
>>
>>344550707
Yes you can build your own house in B&W dlc. You can choose between Triss and Yen as your lover.
>>
>>344550750
>then we're not talking about the same thing
we are though

you dont NEED to have any skill in a thing to still be the best at it if everyone who is good at it works for you

that would still make YOU the best at it
>it's impossible for one person to master every skill
not with enough money
>>
>>344548749

This is all me
>>
>>344550964
2 of those posts were me, actually
>>
>>344550920
obviously i was talking about this in skyrim's context, where the player character and ONLY the player character PERSONALLY masters every skill.
>>
>>344550478

Not him, but while I see your point, I would argue that RfS is probably the best Skyrim overhaul in terms of level-fuckery. It does have problems though, obviously.

>all the faggots in this thread hating on RP in Skyrim
Don't you have a designated Bitcher thread to be whining in?

Well, only way to roleplay is to limit yourself.

I did a priest of Stendarr run which was pretty fun. One handed mace in the right hand, magic in the left. No "evil" magic like summoning, only healing, shields, destruction, and alteration.

I also did a passive aggressive run that was quite a bit of fun. Sneaking mage, unable to use any direct damage spells or weapons. Most of my time was using summons to fight for me, raising the bodies of the dead to fight their former comrades, fury to make enemies fight each other, and other shit like that. Forced you to bumrush hideouts before the raise dead spell wore off. Some fights like boss fights are impossible, and others like dragon priests are tedious as shit, but overall it was a very different experience.
>>
You can't roleplay in Skyrim. You are forced to play as a prisoner that somehow got caught by Imperial and somehow got saved by the villain of the game. You play as a pre-defined dragonborn. There are no quests that impact the game world and the story line.
>>
>>344551379
Go back to red dit or /tesg/ with your autismal crying please
>>
>>344551379
This is bait
>>
>>344551379
but you can pick everything other than that
other than you being captured and you being dragonborn you're a blank slate, so the things you roleplay could have massive story implications, like your character could be the first dragonborn to retire and start a farm or the first dragonborn to be a jarl/king/emperor after your playthrough/story is done

personally in my character storylines i always become the emperor and declare war on the thalmer and win, letting talos get worshipped again which is pretty signifigant if you ask me
>>
>>344551116
they could be morrowind fanboys

>>344548465
Kill everyone psychopath, outlaw

Do thieves guild questline, it's pretty fun barely surviving on the way out every time
>>
>>344551379

>What is Random Alternate Start for $400, Alex
>>
>>344552024
it's a mod that is only for fun and not canon.
>>
>>344552090

It can be argued that due to CHIM, nothing is canon, since you can bend the laws of reality and any outcome that you wish.
>>
Does the Dark Brotherhood lend itself well to a charismatic serial killer roleplay? I want to be a sneaky murderer, but also a skilled diplomat and tradesman.

There's literally nothing you can do to make Skyrim an enjoyable experience. Just give up.
>>
>>344550327
Your build was sneak-illusion dagger
As a character you were the bitch everyone sent into dungeons and no one really respected. Even if you were the Listener Archmage Werewolve King Vampire Lord or wjatever
>>
>>344548465
Roleplay playing good game.
>>
>>344552090
Your new is showing
>>344552292
Nothing in your life is an enjoyable experience, that doesn't mean we don't get to enjoy Skyrim in ours.
>>
>>344551719
>Kill everyone psychopath
I tried that once. You become incredibly aware of how many NPCs are essential very, very quickly.
>>
>>344550689
>in comparison you're literally just told you were arrested by the imperials, the rest is up to you
With mods you have even more freedom. There's just not enough sandbox open-world RPG games, and the only one coming out in a few more decades is Bannerlord.
