Three Questions

[Lord English]

1. What the hell is with the trans discussions? I don't have the game yet, but I don't recall any issues back in '06. Feel free to ignore this questions as IDGAF either way. Just curious.

2. Did they keep in the audio flubs (like the lady who says, IIRC, 'that take was ♥♥♥♥. Let me try it again')?

3. Does the base game contain Shivering Isles and KotR?

4. What are the things in the Deluxe Edition? I don't remember anything save Horse Armour.

TYIA.

People are angry that the company whose last game in this series, Skyrim, had the gender be a left or right slider, made it body type one or two. This is a massive deal somehow for this franchise.

So a big fuss over nothing much? Got it. Thank you.

Answers to questions 2 and 3 are on the store page. I don't care about the first two questions.

1) I think they just renamed Male and Female to body type 1&2 and of course its the end of the world now lol
2) Yes! It's actually still there!
3)Yes!
4)Deluxe adds 2 more horse armors (totally to 4 now) and one new quest outside of Kvatch. Its kinda lame... it rewards you with a unique armor/weapon set. Sort of like Iron/Steel variants. You get this new variant of gear for heavy, light (same models used), swords, blunt, bow, etc. I don't really like it and you can kinda just get... unlimited of them? Thankfully they're worth 0 gold so it doesnt break the economy. But IMO youre missing nothing with skipping deluxe

1. There's a lot discussion of the use of "Type 1" and "Type 2" for the "Body Types". The original game had "Gender" and "Male" or "Female". I went through the translation files and "Type 2" is actually listed as female and "Type 1" is male. Both "Male" and "Female" have hundred of references in the translations as well. So there was just a front end change for the character creator and that was it. An appeal to triviality is a fallacy. Words all carry meaning so I understand there being a discussion about it.
2. No idea
3. Base game has the DLC. Info is on the store page.
4. Info is on the store page. There's some armor and a couple weapons. Not worth $10 in my opinion at all.

There's 2 quests actually! One you can get in the Imperial City by the statue of Akatosh.

People noticed that the game has had corporate virtue signalling and censorship shoehorned into it. They point it out, and call it stupid. It's OK to do that. If the change is really as trivial as its defenders say it is, then it shouldn't have been changed at all. I noticed NPC titles in the game like "bowman" have not been changed to "bowbodytype1", so they can't even be consistent in their stupidity.

It's OK to notice things. It's OK to call stupid things stupid. Don't let anyone tell you that you're "freaking out" or "losing your mind" when you notice something is stupid, and call it stupid.
