Skyrim: The Women Of Skyrim (Gallery)

NowGamer: "Back at Gamescom 2011, Bethesda's Pete Hines told us that The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim's female quotient had been given an upgrade by saying, "We have attractive women now."

We decided to put this to the test by embarking on a quest for satire, and set off searching the cold expanses of Skyrim for as many ladies as we could find."

[skyward]

Definite visual improvement on Oblivion. Not just the ladies, either.

[SuicidalTendencies]

I agree but some of them still look a little homely. Not as bad as Oblivion though.

[MajorJackHoff]

You've gotta have some fugs, it adds to the realism.

[ChrisW]

Almost all of them look like they're variations of anerexic Angelina Jolie. Hopefully someone will come out with a TexMod that'll put some meat on them.

[Canary]

All of the NPCs I've seen have been ugly as hell.

Except for one, possibly: the shapes were good, but covered with so much dirt crap it was hard to get good grasp of things.

[Poopface the 2nd]

yeah really, I doubt there would have been that many hot ladies back then so thats why they are all poor and dirty looking in this game.

But I noticed that in oblivion and fallout, no matter how old or ugly their faces were, they always had really fit and hot bodies when you took their clothes off(I know how pervy of me LOL). Well I guess there were less fat people back then anyways.

From these pics it seem that this game continues this tradition. Im sure under their clothes they all have nice butts, tiny waists, and nice heaving breasts. I bet even that old lady they show has the body of a 22 year old porn star if you take her clothes. Not tht that is a bad thing lol.

[Abriael]

Honestly i don't see all that visual improvement in the ladies. They're evidence that Bethesda didn't learn much from the modding community of Oblivion.

[iamgoatman]

I'm glad they didn't, most of the face mods just made the NPC's look like they've been pulled straight from some crappy Manga.

[awi5951]

I think these new girls are more fugly than the old ones.

[aPerson]

But they do look better. You are wrong.

@awi5951

If you truly find Oblivion's potato-faced ladies to be more attractive, I highly recommend investing in a pair of glasses!

[sohaben]

haha....that was a joke, right?

did you play Oblivion? I would make a prettier lady and i have a beard. lol

[sohaben]

Yeah, those are mostly manly women. Their posture seems a little....unnatural; its odd.

Hopefully at least one of the nobles will get a rise out of my trousers =D haha

[sohaben]

who says trousers?

[jakethesnake]

Yeah - the posture is weird. It often looks like their heads are too far back which does seem very unnatural - but other than that it looks great.

[chazjamie]

they all kind of look the same. damn ugly. not even "reality ugly".

[Feckles]

You're my wife now. Well, soon, anyway.

[iamgoatman]

Hello Dave!?

[Sidewinder-]

Wanna buy some pegs!?

[Grendizer]

you redneck cock

[fastrez]

What is the point of this article again?

[Feckles]

Boobies.

[fantasygamer]

Wonder If you give the one whos homeless money will she buy a house and stuff? that would be pretty cool and if you can give money can you also give other things?

[CPUSmith]

Why do they all look like zombies?

[Lord_Sloth]

Because Zombies are all the rage and medieval people couldn't clean themselves, being primitive obviously means incompetent. XXXD

[ScubaSteve1]

i just hope they fixed the voice animations, that what made me mad in oblivion because the mouths would not move, when they talk

[Ness-Psi]

but women are like that in real life.

[f789790]

That's a common misconception. It only appears that their mouths are not moving. In fact, they're talking so fast your eyes cannot keep up with the movement.

[jc48573]

one word: Ugly

[ForROME]

goty

[EverydayGuy]

They actually look like women

[jc48573]

what women? lol even your average women in real life looks better. Heck, most games have real women in them, but this is a lie!

[double-o-7]

I feel like I'll get the Black Plague just looking at them.

[Main_Street_Saint]

Nice one! XD

[Deadman_Senji]

A few of them look like dudes. Straight up DUDES

[kesvalk]

except for susana (the one n the SS here on N4G) all of them look like zombies/men.

when bethesda will replace their character artists?

[Tuxedo_Mask]

Is it true that your character can marry any of the women in Skrim? If so, I wonder who will take the plunge with Silda or Tekla. Someone has to give those two ladies the gift of societal upward mobility, and maybe some clean clothes too.

[Inception]

They all look like men -_-

[Somebody]

They're better than Oblivion but they have really sharp/flat cheeks. All of them(in the screenshots).

[MasterCornholio]

Hmmm maybe there's an illusion spell to make some of them look a little better. At least they look a lot better than the women in oblivion.

[Bolts]

I've been deceived! By "Women of Skyrim" I read hot chicks. Instead the link took me to pictures of old crones.

Get to work mod community!

[thewhoopimen]

Is it me or do eastern Rpgs/mmorpgs tend to have more of the eyecatching in game female characters.... Bethesda's charcs went from fugly to fug.

[jc48573]

It's mainly Bethesda. They need to consider hiring some good character designers because this is unforgivable. All we want is some believable class of people. You start looking at other games where they've improved a whole lot on character designs, but Bethesda is like they haven't hit evolution yet.

[Main_Street_Saint]

Don't really think they are not that great looking; oh and Narri looks like Drew Barrymore od'ed on eyeliner!

[mook1022]

Mods will fix that...they fix anything...little snip of the bra here...push that there...oil this here...there...beautiful ladies everywhere...thank you modding community!!!

[SicilianGunner]

wtf they all look cold and angry no smiles on them no light on their face same expression on all of them -_- fugly if you ask me

[tiffac008]

Those are women? They look like zombies!

[CaptCalvin]

Never were good at making attractive hair, and never will be

[ME1989]

So we can marry in this game correct?

Cuz that Susanna the Wicked gon' be mine! ahahahah

[Jagsrock]

The only one that's is somewhat attractive is Susanna The Wicked.

[Organization XII]

hey should let CD Projekt make the ladies for them. Those who played The Witcher 2 knows what I'm talking about.

[GUNS N SWORDS]

(looks at those women and says.)
you're one ugly motherfu....

[OnlyAMystery]

Well...Guys, I'm a girl and, first of all, I'm not feminist. But what you're saying is quite offensive for a lady :/ Skyrim is a wonderful game, but It's a RPG game. Maybe If you did wanted to touch a butt or do something worse you should have bought another kind of game...Just saying.
