✭✭✭When the game first came out, having dragons in the game was considered lore breaking.... So you never know.
Having hundreds/thousands of dragons happily playing taxi for all the dragonborn wanna-bes *is* lore-breaking.
Remind me, Abnur released *how many* dragons? Dragons who were locked away and not out in the open....dragons who are story-related and not mounts.....0 -

✭✭The only mounted combat I can see as playable would be riding your mount into a crowd of badguys to do collision damage before it despawns and leaves you on the ground fighting.
Why wouldn't mounted combat be playable? I'm no game dev (far from it) so this may just be a fantasy. Hypothetically though, the skills would be dragon skills. Granted AoE would be a sphere, and spacial (vs. ground) targeting would be something new (not sure how the engine would or could deal with that).
Because it would have a lore-breaking impact on game mechanics.
Whats next?
Magical gunpowder from enlightened alchemists?
There have been calls for that concept, too, in previous years.Edited by twev on June 11, 2019 3:15PMThe problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.1 -
LordTareq✭✭✭✭✭Craft or acquire armor and weapons for your dragons, level them up, evolve them. Special quests or delves to capture rare ones. Breed and sell. Hot dog, that would be fun. Dragon mode BGs. Chaos in Cyrodiil.
Would have to be at the base game level. It wouldn't be very fair to annihilate an enemy raid with a dragon ult and strafe fire (or whatever) on the leftovers. Or maybe put a lower elevation limit for the dragon to activate attacks. You know. Cause it might hurt itself.
Please? Just sayin' (wish list).
And while I'm at it I want capes! (Yes, I know the game engine isn't built to support capes, but dang it if I don't want my toon with a cape on a rare dragon he's bred and leveled to max).
Devs, please pay me in crowns. You're welcome. Jk. Sort of.
Yes, we should all ride dragons capable of annihilating entire zergs. I'm sure that will end really well.0 -

✭✭✭Well dang, notes (engine, lore, PC Skyrim, etc.) taken. Wasn't aware of the lore. Ah, and I'm on PS4, so no Skyrim modding for this player. Can't a gamer dream/ be ridiculous a little on forum? (rhetorical)
Kk, dropping subject. Yikes.
Actually, there are quite a few mods out for PS4.

That's probably the reason they're so full of anger and rage, they can't get a good release.

They are beings out of time; they have always simply existed. Due to their appearance, affinity with time, immortality (unless their soul is consumed) the fact that Alduin calls himself "the first-born of Akatosh" (implying there were others), they are probably best described as offshoots/aspects of the God of Time.[The Beauty of Tamriel] My collection of ESO screenshots

Well color me lack-of-research. No deal though, who would see my awesome bow skills but myself? (ESO is my first and probably only MMO)0 -

No need for hundreds, only one for the only Dragon Born = ME!!!

tuxon✭✭✭✭Evolve the Dragons? BREED THEM? Are you sure you are on a right forum, mate?
P.S. Seriously, they (dragons) are VERY ancient and VERY proud race, okay?Resdayniil kan tarcel1 -

Not game-breaking by any stretch, but it does mess with the immersion to walk passed ladders I can't climb.
It's just like seeing a house with lights on in the upstairs windows, but there's no staircase inside.
So, my opinion is no lore-breaking dragons flying around like Uber, when I can't climb a ladder.The problem with society these days is that no one drinks from the skulls of their enemies anymore.1
