SKYRIM: Open ended realistic nature.

Yeah im still playing Skyrim.

Ive been told that skyrim has a kinda realistic nature to it. Sure like the next guy ive noticed that the game seems to be a mini world with denizens getting up at certain times and going to bed at certain times witha plethora of realistic tasks in between. What i wonder though is what happens when you kill off one of the citizens. For instance. If at the beginning of the game i was to kil fulcan who gives you the claw quest would he stay dead? and if he did what would happen to the quest?

I Read some where that the actions you take in sky rim affect the game, Im just trying to determine by how much.

some people you cant kill. not sure about some of them tho, probably screws up the quest

There are some characters that are marked essential for the big quests to progress, like the main quest and the civil war questline or even most of the guild questlines. If you tried to kill these guys they would just stagger to the floor, crawl around a bit then get back to their feet. There are heaps of other NPCs that you CAN kill however, that can really mess up questlines of other quests, meaning you won't get a reward or can't complete the quest at all

Pretty much anything skyrim, I'm your gal. I've racked up over 300 hours on that game

So like these people are gone forever? The ones you can kill i mean? Unless and until you start a new game?

Yes. Unless you have PC and use console commands to resurrect them, gone forever.

Yeah it only ever messes up Misc quest or sometimes optional parts which I guess fall within Misc category. I quit playing that game as it was draining my life span

Elder Scrolls MMO will fuck my life all together

He said "RIM" huh huh yeah khee khee

In the older Elder Scrolls games you could kill anyone and fuck up your quest line. In Skyrim there are some important characters that just fall to the ground for awhile.

Morrowind especially. If you killed an essential a pop up would say "oh hey you killed someone important, the world is doomed" (not exact words)
