Hardcore Mode

Post by Fist »

For those of you who played Fallout: New Vegas, you will be familiar with the "Hardcore Mode" which you have to eat, drink and sleep to survive.

I always wanted a feature like this in Oblvion, because sure, theres taverns and bars and inns to do these at. But theres no point of going in them unless it was for a quest. The only reason I needed bread was for a restore fatigue potion, and I would just sell those. I would just wait in Oblivon, and when I needed to level up I'd sleep at a bandit camp.

So what do you think of Bethesda adding a Hardcore mode for Skyrim?

Voted yes, mainly because it's always interesting to have more ways to play the game.
I should mention that FNV's hardcore mode also added weight to a lot of weightless items (ammo, for instance) and made companions non-essential, to further add a sense of realism. I also liked that you could switch between hardcore and non-hardcore, so that you don't have to re-roll a character if you don't like it.
All in all, i like the idea of hardcore mode because it's not a way to play the game with just a higher difficulty: it feels genuinely different, while changing very few things.

No reason to vote no; you can just disable hardcore mode if you don't want it.
