then they'd hardly be playable because they have their own sets of rules that don't involve actions a humanoid body can take

How is that a problem?

The AvP games have you playing as both humans with human abilities as well as aliens that can crawl on walls, stab people with their tail and do other xeno stuff.

>lizard thread
>it's gay porn bait with a lizard OP
just stop

Do you have some problem with the humanoid form? It suits the Argonians quite well.

>it's a human human episode
>it's a cat human episode
>it's a big human episode

stop

The AvP games are not enormous rpgs with tons of items, armors, npcs and weapons that you can interact with

Maintaining universal equippable loot across all races.

Yeah well that's not how Bethesda games work friend.

>lizard race
>they're fucking awesome

Argonians are not a lizard race. They are beastfolk, metmer.

stop

hahahaha it's a giraffe

It's the unnamed "common tongue," rendered as English for your convenience. Lrn2fantasy.

Elites from Halo were done pretty well I'd say

horp and skorp lorp a dorp look at you thinking with your brain and shit, get this nigga out of here you are upsetting me to the point i might just have to close this tab which i have no problem doing normally so i might just do it anyway just to spite you

>fantasy game
>as its own original language
>you have to learn it beforehand to understand the game
Does something like this even exist

Each race in ES series should have their own special trait besides "slightly resistant to this" or "use this shit ability once a day."

>Fantasy game
>no one speaks english
>everyone speaks half garbled grunting noises intermixed with chest beats and roars
>drop game because it takes an hour to translate what anyone is saying

this is one of the major reasons i hate this game and most FF games. FFTA was my first and i just fell in love with non human races being a thing. i like FFTWOTL but when its an mmo and you are left with every race looking pretty much exactally the same just different types of humans it gets old

i hope so. it would restore faith in humanity for me.

...

>lizard race
>is intelligent, endothermic and capable of complex communication and cooperation

>fantasy game
>everyone speaks spanish

The special abilities are the gameplay abstraction of their special trait. All are mer and men - they cannot be too dissimilar beyond cultural specialties and affinities. The beast races should be more unique, though.

>big human

NieR's soundtrack does this but I'm not sure if it's an actual language they thought out that has any meaning in the lyrics.

No Man's Sky

Nope, it is a made up language and the composer uses different words from different languages because in her words "it activates different parts of the brain when you hear them"
in order to...induce emotions or something, but no, there's no actual meaning behind it, it's just supposed to sound really pleasant

Video game dev shitters are way too casual for conlangs

That is one of the better outcomes of a Sup Forums thread.

Khajiit are just supposed to be fucked up mer, who apparently furfagged a little too hard one day
Argonians are the ones who should be strange and alien, and are often described as such in fluff books, but then in the game they're just regular old people like everyone else.

>always play as a male human in any game with other races to play as

fuck all the shitty nonhumans and females

Do you know much time, money and effort it would take to develop a unique fantasy language that doesn't sound similar to any other language on earth with its own grammatical rules?

>game has its own script
>it's just the latin alphabet but the characters look different

not that much at all? nerds do it for their fucking D&D campaigns and fantasy novels all the time. Grammar isn't that complicated, it's just where words go in a sentence and rules about how words are constructed and verbs are conjugated. You can add fancy features if you want but you don't have to.

Just smash a keyboard over and over again instead of actually writing anything of any worth. Then close your eyes and put random spaces in.

Then get a voice actor to try their hardest to vocalise what you've just created, but tell them they must put an extreme emphasis on certain vowels.

Make sure there are no subtitles and then task people with coming up with what the dialogue means post release, after a month or so, the reddit thread with the highest amount of posts will probably have the best guesses and just tell them they were more or less correct.

You know what's objectively better than reptilians? Reptilians with humanoid characteristics. By that I mean a humam/elf with a tail/horns/wings. Reptiles are disgusting but a tail is cute.

> but a tail is cute

yesss.

The beast races are just absolutely fucking hideous and there are no mods that fix them.

I agree, if there was a lizard race it would only make sense that they would be dumb as fuck.

Guys I think I reptile might be in this thread.

Sounds like shit game design then, thanks todd

I recomend you all get Digitigrade Beast Race Feet + Beast Skeletons to fix those god damned legs on Argonians and Khajiits.

most if not all reptiles are plantigrade user, it's you who needs to fix your legs.

Raptor feet are COOL.

Also helps to make them feel a little less like a human with a lizard head, which is what the thread is about.

You got the video of El Donte?

then just make them dinosaur/bird people
makes a hell of a lot more sense than lizard people anyway. Lizards are about as simple and primitive as tetrapods can be.

youtube.com/watch?v=TPKHxbOg19s

I'd be totally okay with that,

What kind of penis do you think they have? Would it be a scaley human-like one?

>it's you who needs to fix your legs.

Why is the succubus so gross?
the whole point is that they're hot. Fucking ninja theory

all genitalia would be internal, in the same hole that shit and piss comes out of.

Internal
crocodiles have explosive penises

Don't mind me, just posting the best character and bro in Berseria.

The only art I can find of this guy. There needs to be more.

The only lizard tits I like are big masculine chests with large pectoral muscles.

Well how the fuck would you do it OP? Why are elves, orcs, furfag cat people, jews, and dwaves humanoid?

>A crocodile and his pet deer

I suddenly really want a video game based on this concept.

...

>not even a usable character in the game
>happy ending is him turning back into a human

That depends entirely on the setting they're in, user. Just because they're primitive in one setting doesn't mean they HAVE to be primitive in every fucking other setting.

Fuck, generalizations like this rustle my jimmies something fierce. It's like on /tg/ whenever they get into a "is necromancy inherently evil" discussion.

While that image is hilarious, that's not even a gecko, it's a fence lizard (which are fucking awesome by the way).

>fantasy setting
>the other monster races are constantly cucking the humans from their women
>those races have no females

In 2001.

I'm still mad. I haven't beaten the game yet but I already had that part spoiled. I would have loved him as a party member.

>tfw you will never comfort lizard-Dyle through his lizard dick

It hurts.

>When will this meme end?
to answer the question, when normiefag consoles stop getting pandered to; see:
it was after this they discovered consoles could/would be a big market, and look what happened to Oblivion in part because of it

they don't even resemble geckos
It's like confusing a cat and a weasel
lizards are smooth brained ectotherms. They don't engage in complex problem solving, they can't communicate and coordinate with each other, most of them barely even learn. There's only so much you can change about the kind of creature they are before they cease resembling it altogether and the name becomes pointless.

Lizards are plantigrade though??

Again, that depends on setting. Some settings might have decently intelligent lizard animals, who knows.

And for the record, lizards can communicate with each other. Plenty are capable of learning. A few are even capable of some higher developed intelligence to the point where they exhibit enjoyment with human interaction (this is mainly only tegus and certain monitors, though).

Can you use a spear with a shield in Morrowind?

enjoy being forever unhappy.

NO STOP I DONT WANT TO PLAY MORROWIND

>long flexible neck
>can make out with she-lizard while fucking her from behind
naisu

Thats not a Lizard man, I'll show you a Lizardman...

Not in vanilla, but there's a mod for it.

Western devs just aren't crazy enough.
>Ar Tonelico

Ar Tonelico has one of the most in-depth settings in video games

>change game settings to a language you don't know yet
>learn a real language instead some fantasy shit in order to play it

which reminds me
>people want a game where you have to learn the language in order to play
>but if you learn japanese to play japanese exclusives youre dumb weeb trash

>you couldnt use regular boots
That was somewhat good compared to the others.

>Bethesda games are fucking huge and accounting for hugely varied races would take a shitload of work
>well that's just bad design

You can throw "bad design" at nearly any part of a Bethesda game and be correct but it really doesn't apply here.

>Bethesda games are fucking huge and accounting for hugely varied races would take a shitload of work
This isn't an excuse for lazily slapping a beasts head on a human body and calling it a day.
The overworld might be big but that's about it, it's fucking nothing in regards to actual content.
>Just a handful of weapon models, wouldn't be much of a problem because of variety, but you got shit like daggers, one handed swords and axes sharing the same animations.
>Dungeons reuse assets, it's always the same walls, textures and clutter, and enemies. Understandable as this is following themes and setting, but fact is, it doesn't make the game "fucking huge"
Bethesda games aren't huge in content more than they are bloated with garbage that gets reused everywhere.
Skyrim is just as large as Morrowind in terms of content and time wasting, yet Morrowind actually tried with the beast races, and for a game being limited by cd-roms it manages to have larger and more intricate dungeons too.
Having actual beast races and accommodating the body type by having different armor models is not only doable, but it wouldn't take the herculean effort you seem to imply it would, stop apologizing for lazy devs that ask you full price for a barely functioning mess who's only improvement is graphic fidelity at the cost of everything else.

>Long flexible neck

Which comes with a long dexterous tongue.

What exactly is so great about a neck that long when you're not going to be able to experience any more of it than a normal deepthroat?

I guess you could stick your arm down her throat like giving medicine to a cow but that's about it.

all of that is fine, but why the fuck do their helmets look exactly the same as they do on humans

that kept me from ever playing through the game as argonian

Did you even read his post?

take it easy man, i'm just sayin

preach on, bro!

Ar Tonelico is one of the most underrated series ever, and the lore, world-building, atmosphere and attention to detail are amazing.

and the music too. can't forget dat hymmnos.

Man a legit lizard race would be OP as fuck.

>Flexible as shit
>Would be able to function on both two feet or four
>When on all fours be fast as shit and climb up walls

How could humans even compete?

Well yeah you need bipedalism.

says who?

>How could humans even compete?
By waiting for winter to fuck them up while they're too lethargic to be OP

Pretty sure Jade Empire had its own language

Argonians actually had weird lizard bodies in Morrowind though. They didn't become completely humanoid until Oblivion because Todd decided there should be absolutely no quirks to any races so that casuals will feel good with whatever they pick.

Yeah because Argonian and Khaajit were barely playable in Morrowind right

>Lizards are all plantigrade.

Fucking furfags.
