The city of Vivec

Rolandthemad · 01-19-2003, 03:13 AM

Does the city of Vivec strike anyone else as not entirely convincing? I mean where are the street vendors? The pedestrians? The streets? Some metropolis! And the whole canton thing.. the idea isn`t so bad but the implimentation kind of sucks. How is the infrastructure supposed to work in that place? I`d hate to have to drag any carts up those two huge ramps in the foreign canton. Bah!

you haven't been to the treasure vaults aren't you?

check the topic " I found paradise but paradise won't let me in ".

I agree. Vivec was my least favorite town to go to. The whiskey tasted like Guar piss and there wasn't a topless bar to be found. Why Suran gets my vote. Better whiskey and at least one topless bar for my Nord to kick back and relax after a day of adventuring and pilaging. Gotta love the developers of this game for having a good sense of humor. I'm just wondering if I can get one of these chicks shaking it for my drunken pleasure into the back room? I know I'm sick. But you guys know you've thought of it too (and I'm sure tried) so cut me some slack. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well at least you`re not alone in your sickness. I know I`ve seen a mod for this.

You gotta be kidding? lol. Playing it on the Xbox because the old comp runs it like a slide show. Time to get that Alienware I've been looking at. I'm missing out on all the good stuff.

At one point in time I was going to rebuild the entire city of Vivec but I`m pretty lazy lol.. and I still haven`t beaten the main quest yet (I`ve had this game for months!)

It would probably entail the reworking of alot of dialog and quests along with just the art and city layout. I wondered if anyone else had similar ideas..?

I was thinking that the basic city structure could be the same except the cantons could be hollowed out and built as mostly in the exterior cell of instead of all those interior cells.

I found a mod called 'Adventurer`s NPCs' that really help with the aesthetics of Vivec. It isn`t so bad when it isn`t so lifeless and desolate lol. This mod adds lots of new, generic npcs all over the place. I went for the B version because I`m already having problems with those damn Tribunal assassins and I don`t need friggin` vampires and bandits on top of that.

You can get the mod here - http://www.m0use.net/~adam/

Sorry for you Xbox folks.
