My shameful truth.
Nah. Jrpg's are too furry.
"Every idea is an incitement. It offers itself for belief and if believed it is acted on unless some other belief outweighs it or some failure of energy stifles the movement at its birth. The only difference between the expression of an opinion and an incitement in the narrower sense is the speaker's enthusiasm for the result. Eloquence may set fire to reason." -Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
So you are saying you finally uninstalled the female khajiit nude mod?

The issue shouldn't be realism, it should be balance.

Unfortunately no one actually fought that way, A. the soldier wants to fire as many arrows as possible and he can't do that if his arms are exausted after the first one, B. he needs to fire many arrows as quickly as he can, why waste time to sap his arm strength?
As I mentioned earlier requiring stamina to hold the bow would be a bad idea. It turns shooting the bow into some awful "click at the right moment" minigame that breaks up any flow there is to shooting arrow after arrow, and doesn't make any sense when in real life you would be able to feel when the bow was drawn fully back.
But if you really feel inclined to add to my mod suggestion, how about this: the default has the bow release automatically when fully drawn but once you get either the zoom or slow time perk you are able to keep it drawn back at the expense of stamina (which would make sense since you'd need experience or training to hold your bow back like that).
Soldier and adventurer are two very different things. Soldiers just need to shoot arrows at a huge mass of troops a long way off. Adventurers will be using archery more like hunters

The principle is still the same though. You are not worried about rapid fire as an adventurer, you can take a moment to get your shot even if it's hard because fighting whatever that is will likely be much harder than holding that bow drawn. I could understand there being a small time limit for how long you can keep it drawn but an instant fire hell no.
If you are talking about an adventurer who only uses a light bow for hunting and never actually brings it out in combat then perhaps. But that's not the kind of adventurer I want to play, and it's definitely not the kind of adventurer I want to see all the NPCs playing. I'd much rather see something fluid like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LG1YwJQtEUs.
If anyone doesn't think that doesn't sound fun then they can stick with the vanilla or use another mod.
Has anyone given the ENBSeries graphics mod a shot?

It's kind of neat and it's nice to see that the mod doesn't hit my performance as much as I thought it would but there's definitely an issue with the brightness and contrast. I kind of wish I could scale it down a tad yet I have no clue how to do that in in .ini file.
I wouldn't count out the mod based solely on that. I mean, you're not seeing NPCs dual wielding greatswords but the option is there if the player wants to. Now the the mod is at 0.44 and they've added more stuff in terms of alchemy, smithing, etc. The new version also added in an Imperial Spear and an Imperial Pike - I have yet to come across one or craft one yet but I'll let you know how well it works when I do.seems to be your general quantity over quality mod. Dual wielding Great Swords? Yeah right.

I'm getting an appcrash with the 4GB LAA mod. Anyone knows a solution (besides waiting for the official patch)?
Someone has to make a destructable world mod. I wanna see dragons burning cities!
BLM - ANTIFA - A.C.A.B. - ANARCHY - ANTI-NATIONALISM
So I'm uninstalling the ENBSeries mod.
Yeah, it did kind of make the game look better but the contrast and brightness was too whacked and for some reason the mod caused the game to crash if you tried to open your map while inside a dungeon.
Also for those that want "Glamazons" as they're called in their Skyrim check this mod out

It turns pretty much every female NPC into super model material if that's your thing.

I'm going to guess everyone who downloaded that one also downloaded the nude mod
"When I die, I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like Fidel Castro, not screaming in terror, like his victims."
My shameful truth.
Probably.
No it doesn't and that is from personal experience.
Best 5 mods out there IMHO:
5. Very cool dragons.
4. I praise this man for fixing the god awful mountain flowers and much more.
3. Simply a must have.
2. Best atmospheric mod out there and enhances game performance immensely.
1. The most expected mod whose development should be watched closely.
I'm going to guess everyone who downloaded that one also downloaded the nude modSeconded.Probably.
I didn't though b/c I really don't see the point in such things. I do like the Glamazons mod though - I'm not one of those people who gets all up in arms when a fantasy game makes everyone super unrealistically attractive. Plus having unrealistically attractive characters is the better end of the spectrum IMO after coming off Oblivion where everyone, especially females, looked like someone made a few indents in a piece of rock and put it on top of a body lol
I'm not sure if you're referring to the statement about the ENBSeries mod making the game look better or the statement about it making the game crash. I'm going to assume the first. If that's the case I do hope you realize that the Enhanced Shaders mod specifically names the ENBSeries for providing a good chunk of their work...No it doesn't and that is from personal experience.
