✭If we wanted to be realistic there should be sewage in the street, since chamber pots were generally just dumped out the window. With no universal medical care there should be rampant disease, which would lead to lots of disabled and sick homeless people panhandling on the street.Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.1 -

which is exactly what the nords wanted for us dark elves in skyrim. it's uncalled for to even think we dunmer have to use restrooms or baths as we are kept alive purely on magicka and inteligence.
there are no restrooms for us dark elf dunmer but the rest of tamriel citizens certanly need them.

✭Was there a bathroom in any part of skyrim? for humans?
I think so, there was like an outhouse. One. For all of Skyrim.
Actually, I just looked it up and it was a mod. So apparently OP isn't the only one troubled by this in TES games.Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.1 -

✭It could be even funny. You have a few toilets in every city. Also you need to use it or you get debuff 'wanna pee' and you toon cant stand still. If you dont visit toilet you pants lost some durability. LOL!!

Cyberdown✭✭✭I swear these people would halt development on the game so they could get stupid stuff that doesn't matter like children, toilets, and killable cats....
I think about how many times I was so relieved to see toilets in games like fallout or metro...wait no...didn't care...didn't add to the game to know that a non-life-like NPC could if he wanted to, out of sight, take a dump.
Just pretend everyone goes and runs off into the forest to do their stuff...Edited by Cyberdown on August 16, 2014 3:54AM0 -

✭✭See all those buckets laying around in the game? Yeah those. Those are honey buckets. That's what the world uses for the bathroom. Just like in the old days before people had indoor plumbing.Far too many characters to list any more.1 -
epoling✭✭✭✭Sorry - I have to agree with the OP. When he was younger (12 or 13) my son was fascinated by toilets. It has stuck in my head since that games build realistic (for the setting) worlds and then leave out the most basic of human needs.1 -

CreepySpydre✭✭✭This bit of detail is left out in many mmo's. But there may be a mini portal in the chair in our 'sitchair' emote, and it drops in Mehrune's lava domain for incineration.
Thinking back in SWTOR, there were no bathrooms on board those ships, not to poop, and not to shower... it does not stink its a natural musky smell.1 -

You are incorrect. There were many 'bathrooms' but you are thinking like a modern person with running water and toliets. Forget about all of that. Admittedly the Romans did have public bath-houses with public toliets that had flowing water through them, so theoretically you might see something like that being thematic to this series, but it is not. What you will find dotted all over Skyrim, are what people know as chamberpots. A chamberpot is just that. A pot you use to relieve yourself, and then toss out as needed. In Skyrim there were many locations where you find buckets lined up in stalls (mostly in keeps) and humorously there was reading material nearby very often. You just had to be observant enough to notice it, and not have your preconceived 21st century notions of how to go to the bathroom. Additionally, if you take out running water, there wouldn't be sinks, but there would be bowls or basins that were filled with water for this purpose.
I'm not saying I've seen this in ESO, but Skyrim did have these features available, in the vanilla game, without mods.US/AD - Dodge Hopper - Vet Imperial Templar | US/AD - Goj-ei-Raj - Vet Argonian Nightblade

We use magic to get around all those problems.
Seriously though, until very recently in our world baths were tins that hung on the wall, and toilets were hole in the ground. It only changed en mass in Europe after world war 2. Only the very rich had special Bathrooms and porcelain toilets for quite a long portion of history. And during the middle ages virtually nobody had them.People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!
