Your favorite sounds in Skyrim Options

[Lady Saga]

Hello all. My name is Lady Saga, and today I'd like to talk about my favorite sounds in Skyrim.

I apologize and feel slightly embarassed for starting all these threads, by the way (what am I up to now, 3? Lol) I can't help it though. I've been dying to start Sky threads for months now over at Bethsoft, but....ya know...


#1 for me is the sound of of NPC's smithing. Especially from a distance. I love hearing that little tink tink tink sound. Or clank clank clank as I approach a village. This sound happens to carry a bit, meaning there are times I don't even know there's civilization nearby. I'll hear the sound of smithing and always a smile crosses my face.

#2? Boot-steps on wood floors. They sound heavier in Skyrim than they did in Oblivion. clomp clomp clomp. I like the sound of footsteps no matter what game I'm playing (even cheap-boat Raiders of the Lost Ark on the Atari 2600) but Skyrim's footsteps on wood floors just sound so full.

#3: the sound of dirt falling as we travel thru dungeons. sssssssssshhhh. I dislike the actual dungeon-noises (the ones that repeat over and over) but I love walking under something, and then some dirt falls from the ceiling. Know what I mean?



anyways, sorry. I keep starting threads. I'm probably gonna keep doing so. But what are your favorites?

Don't feel sorry for starting topics. Go ahead!

I never really thought about the sounds much. I like the sound of the bows being drawn back to full extension. You can hear the deep moaning of the bow stave as it curves back, and the twisting of the string. It has a real strong, solid sound.
