Guards should be killable

It flat out kills the immersion off the game, Guards should be like a mini boss.

    No.

    I already hate it that NPCs are killable and I have to step over a pile of murdered old womens' bodies when I step out of my door every day. :s

    idea for new gold sink: "hire a guard"

    Guards ae thinking the same thing about players. Let's level the playing field first by letting them kill players much more easily.

    Killable guards would probably lead to non-stop slaughter in large cities with every killable NPC always being dead, which would kill immersion more. Basically every city would be Anvil during Dark Brotherhood event.

    No. The guards (and everything else killable) would be dead all the time. That would be a worse 'immersion killer'.

    Just learn to not get caught instead of whining about the guards.

    Nope.

    The Justice System is in place for a reason.

    There are passives in the Thieves Guild skill line to help you improve your thieving and make it easier not to get caught.

    But, escaping the guards is just a L2P issue ... players get better after more gameplay.

    And there are really a lot of edicts in thief troves to find - no need to run around with a bounty on one's head.

    This is a game where we can cook every type of food and drink by stirring a single bowl and occasionally licking our finger to taste.

    Just saying, immortal guards are far from the only time immersion took a back seat to gameplay.
