Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports).

"Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.


Posting Rules

  • Posts must be directly gaming-related. Thus, "generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission; similarly, reaction GIFs are also not appropriate as submissions.

  • Following Reddiquette is encouraged

  • No "general" URL shorteners (bitly, tinyurl, etc). Single-site URL shorteners (such as youtu.be or fav.me) are allowed.

  • NSFW submissions and comments must be labeled

  • Spoilers can be posted using the following formatting:
    [X Kills Y](/spoiler)
    Result: X Kills Y.

  • To mark a spoiler as relevant to a specific game/topic, use the alternate formatting:
    [Player 1 wins](/spoiler "Pong")
    Result:
    Player 1 wins

  • Report posts containing spoilers not using the above method

  • Don't post users' personal information.

Submission Rules

Is your post not showing up? Do not delete it. Wait 5 minutes to give AutoModerator a chance to look at it; it approves most submissions automatically. If it hasn't shown up after more than 5 minutes, simply message the moderators and ask us to let it through.

In between vaginas right now, but I'll put the real answer for anyone wondering.

Daedric is just a letter substitution. You just need the alphabet and the words translate directly to English.

The Daedric Alphabet

The Dragon language is an actual "language", and you can translate the words on the dragon walls and such, but it requires translating into the words, then translating the words into English.

The Dragon Language

I just call 'em like I see 'em. It really is crazy how often the top comment is doing the old reddit switch-a-roo. I'm glad it now has a name. Maybe it belongs in that thread about over-done comedic gestures

[–]CheekyMunky 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

That one's not, though. Not really. The switch-a-roo is about (intentionally) fixating on the wrong one of two possible people/objects being referenced. chrisknyfe was facetiously taking an idiomatic phrase as literal.

walliver's reply to the top comment, however, is an actual switch-a-roo.

Dragons don't really have any happy words do they? It seems like they are all about death and strife. Must be pretty sad to be a dragon, well apart from the whole flying around setting people of fire and then taking their gold thing.

[–]Mr42 8 points9 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I wouldn't call dragon language an "actual language", seeing as it doesn't have grammar. Word substitution is far more complex than letter substitution, but a substitution nonetheless.

I feel like when someone automatically answers something about not getting sex because of a dorky question it really perpetuates negative feelings towards hobbies. I mean if a 12 year old boy asked this the first thing he learns is games are bad, get female sex objects instead. No matter what this is a long running joke. I mean you can see already that virginity in public school is made to be shameful and an embarrassing fact for most preteens now days. Does anyone else think that's fucked up and it's no one elses business to push their priority of sex on someone else?

False. I'm a girl, I play Skyrim, AND I study linguistics. I think it would be pretty cool if someone learned either language :)

I agree with some of the other posts...jokes like this are getting old. There are girls who like video games and the artificial languages from said games. Just because a guy also likes these doesn't mean he's not going to have a girlfriend.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

my girlfriend is home from school on winter break and is pretty much locked in her room playing skyrim atm, calling/texting me periodically about how awesome the game is (she didn't get her hands on the game until going home).

I can appreciate humor that relies on stereotypes/generalizations, but considering that I've met quite a few other girls in addition to my gf who are attractive and "normal", but also are really into various videogames, the whole "video game nerdyness repels women" joke is too much of a stretch to work for me.

[–]SecularMantis 29 points30 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

As a male linguistic major who plays Skyrim, I think other people here are vastly underestimating how many women are interested in language AND gaming. My classes are ~80% female and I've seen more of them wearing Zelda/Mario gear than any group of male friends I have.

[–]mojowo11 67 points68 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, I doubt there's any selection bias here.

[–]unusedalias 17 points18 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I have to agree with mojowo11 here, your linguistic classes are not a good sampling group for the what the average woman is interested in.

[–]Dreadgoat 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

He said language AND gaming. The girls in a linguistics class is a pretty good sample group of girls interested in language. If of that group a significant number are interested in gaming, then his statement is reasonable.

Furthormore, if he had said language OR gaming, it would still be correct assuming 80% of his classmates are female, since they are only required to have interested in one of the two in order to qualify.

The only way he could have arguably been wrong is if he said "how many women are interested in gaming."

Logic Man, awaaaaay!

[–]alcoholland 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Get your ass back here logicman. I have an issue with you. Look at the 1st comment. The selection bias isn't in the group of women he chose; it is in the group of men he chose. For his situation to be validated his friends would have to be an accurate cross section of all men. They likely arent as all goto one school fir instance or are able to befriend the poster as another.

Perhaps the poster has 0 male friends who would wear zelda gear....

[–]Dreadgoat 2 points3 points ago

You are technically correct. Since my post was attempting to be overly technical about the issue and you have out-technical-ed me, I declare defeat.

Reddit lives by stereotypes...I wouldn't sweat it.

Some of the popular reddit stereotypes: They think the average redditor is fat, white, college-aged, weed smoking, neckbeard gamer, lover of the internet, socially awkward, and will never get laid. The south (US) is nothing but KKK members. Anyone who enjoys anything vintage is a hipster. Anyone who is slightly conservative in anyway is a republican and is evil. Women are dumb, backstabbing, and hate everything the average redditor stands for...the list goes on and on.

Daedric/Dragon are not languages linguists would be interested in, they're just letter/word ciphers... a better example would be Tolkien's work for Lord of the Rings, considering he was an actual scholar in that field.

And yet, the one person I know who speaks fluent Klingon and Elvish has a beautiful wife, two remarkably well-behaved teenaged kids, and an incredibly successful career. He just happens to be a natural linguist who knows 7 or 8 languages though, so that gives him a bit of an advantage.

If Reddit is anything to go by, there are a lot of vaginas playing skyrim. The "gamers are foreverarone men" stereotype seems to be thrashing in the throes of death.

Me and my boyfriend both play Skyrim. If he decided to learn the language I'd still love him <3

Yeah right. Ben Yankin knows where the Vag's are. Sure sure.

That could be the single greatest reason to learn both those languages.

I always casually upvote these kinds of jokes, but to be honest, I really hate this attitude. Bacteria reproduce. Learning an artificial language is really one of those higher things that separates humans from other organisms. I wish there were a greater appreciation for things that are not simply pleasures of the flesh.

Every time I see posts like these, I'm like, THERE ARE FEMALE GAMERS that would find that HOT. I'm sorry it is so hard to find female gamers, and I hate when I see gamer guys with girls who despise or "don't get" video games. Makes me sad, cause I can't imagine being with someone who doesn't get your passions. ;____;

I'm not entirely sure anyone would find that hot. You can like a game without wanting someone to learn the language for you.

[–]mahboobies 6 points7 points ago

Not sure how I implied that wanting someone else to learn a language makes the game more enjoyable for me? I'm a female gamer with a dirty mind, and it pisses me off when people equate being nerdy in some way (in this case, wanting to learn a language in a game) keeps girls away.

Just sayin', my guy would probably end up getting extra nookie for learning how to speak Dovah other than in his sleep (which he does, btw). Not like it would EARN him more (such a system is dumb), but I'd probably be so inspired.

The other night, my guy was speaking Dovah in his sleep. I wish I'd had the foresight to record it.

The sadder thing is probably that I actually recognized exactly what he was saying.

Afaik daedric isn't a language -- you just substitute daedric characters with English letters. I used to be able to write in it once.

Yes, I am a virgin.

I'm sorry op, but this is false since I'm not familiar with either of these languages.

In the opposite direction of a vagina.
