Where'd That 6th Toe Come From?
Just noticed that there's an option to eat corpses! Oh my God that's awesome. I wonder if cannibalism is in. I mean it's in the game as it was mentioned once, but don't know if you could actually feast on another human. This is great news

*Mild approach*
Yes, I do like the corpses eating aspect of the game. Personal preference.

I don't thinkthe cannibalism is too far fetched. I mean really if you are in the waste land and starving and you happen to kill a group of raiders. There is a lot of meat there and you'd be foolish to turn your nose and starve rather than eat some long pork.
Granted it would work a lot better in a very grim and dismal game setting without humor and what not.

I want child killing, but that's easily moddable. And yeah they will release a CS, they always have, so no problem about this.

Cannibalism doesn't make sense because your character doesn't need to eat anything. If there was starving implemented in the game* it would fit greatly: there isn't much food in postapocalyptic world so you eat all you can maintain. Now it is only for fun of player and if anybody is finding it as a real fun then... Well, I think I don't have rights to tell anyone what his taste should be or criticise his likings.
*which is one of the stupidest ideas in games. Anybody who played one of these old games that tried to be very realistic at every point know there isn't anything more annoying than your character dying of starvation just because of bad luck and no money.

True, I don't want to be forced to eat. Though I did read a post about this the other day which was rather good. I only love cannibalism just because, well I love the whole cannibalism aspect. I'm a fan of Dr.Lecter, so well you know.
Cannibalism does not make sense because :
-starvation isn't implemented ( why eat if you can't starve ? unless eating a corpse gives the player some kind of bonus, which would make even less sense )
-the wastelands seem to be overpopulated ( this is probably due to the fact that the map is rather small and located around the ruins of ONE big city ) => societies are more or less organised and therefore one should be able to buy/grow food and not have to eat every raider one kills. If you can buy chems, have stuff fixed for you and even buy a house ( bethesda... ) you can probably buy food.
Cannibalism would make sense in a deserted world à la "The Road" or in a survivalism-oriented simulation.

You have to remember loads of people larp in oblivion, i think the corpse eating is a spinoff from that.

Yeah, Corpse Eating seems more in line in a game more related with survival, like, say, The Fall: Last Days of Gaia. I remember myself skinning wolfs, deers... but no people. Also, I liked how there was no currency. When people wanted something from you, they usually asked water or meat. And trading was done on pure bartering, no money.
Still, if WE can eat corpses, I want to be able to get meat from other corpses, sell them to a doctor who makes it proper for eating and then send it back for me or a friendly-meat seller, who will make great chips along me selling "Prime Choice" Iguana-On-A-Stick!
