Why is everything is Skyrim so fricking hideous. The entire game look like shit.
I was really amazed by how ugly every NPC was. Maybe it was some overcompensation for clean potato faces from Oblivion, who knows.
So is the new meme nowadays that Skyrim elves somehow aren't faithful to the Morrowind ones? These was a big point that even Skyrim haters acknowledged at some point but I see even this was revised apparently. Or that people didn't praise it for being a huge improvement over Oblivion?
Maybe there's no evil memesters out there to get you? Just a thought.
You can actually play the games and see for yourself whether the elf faces are similar or not.
Are you fricking READY for TES6 to be set on the Summerset Isles Altmer bros?!? It's gonna be so shit words cannot describe how disappointing it will be.
>It's gonna be so shit words cannot describe how disappointing it will be.
Don't even have it on your radar, Elder Scrolls ended with Skyrim, it's over now. Do not hope for something that can not be.
>Elder Scrolls ended with Skyrim
Reading something like this is almost worth having to live out the last decade. Almost.
Skyrim was an embarrassment, and the lies that were spoken to advertise that shit were Fable-tier. It also is a very poor implementation of Skyrim as an in-game place, not surprising to anyone. TES is a series of shit games, the only exception being Morrowind.
skyrim was shit for lore same way oblivion was, but if fallout 4, fallout 76 and starfield thought us literally anything its that bethesdas writing can and will always get worse
Sorry fren, todd howard game studios sold out to the globohomo, that's why Starfield was delayed for a year after the microsoft buyout, so it could be injected with woke shit and the SVOUL removed.

If there is one thing I feel confident not even the most moronic writer at Bethesda would try, it's having the Empire consort with daedra. There was like an entire game about it.
If you find the power of a god then use it or destroy it right away. The moment other people know that it's there ready to be used, they'll kill and betray anyone to get it.

>average Nord clever man bodies an entire clan of Dwemer so hard they invent Spellbreaker just so they can kind of break even, and still lose it in the final battle
And people don't think the Empire was bad for Skyrim.
Ayleids depend on their city state. Many allied with the Alessian Nedes and cohabited with them. Not all Ayleids practiced tiger sports and wailing wheels, those are actually assigned to specific cities of the Daedraphile Barsaebic Ayleids (Ceyatatar and Vindasel respectively). Many Ayleids worshipped the Aedra, and many Nedes worshipped the Daedra. It wasn't until Marukh's reforms that a purely Aedric pantheon was enforced over the Alessian Nedes and their Ayleid vassals.
Both dwemer and ayleid were objectively EVIL, satanic-level evil.
Nope you got it backwards. Snow Elves were the evil as frick ones. Dwemer didn't have the balls to just wipe out an evil race, so they got betrayed and stupidly blinded them just to keep them alive. Snow Elves only devolved into monsters because they were already monsters on the inside.
>The falmer aren't evil, they tolerated the nords >razing an entire city to the ground and putting the citizens to the sword in one night is tolerating the nords
Because they literally got a falseflag thinking the nords would use the Eye of Magnus at them and others.
And it was hinted that it is Herma Mora who did that
[...] >Mournhold in Tribunal: white temple, greenish houses >Mournhold in ESO: BLACK, BLACK EVERYTHING MUST BE BLACK LIKE DAGGERFALL
It is explained that mournhold is being rebuilt after the entire Kamal invasion, since the salty Vampire snow elven survivors who became molag bal's b***hes in Akavir hates the dunmer for not coming to their rescue.
>it literally makes no sense.
It makes perfect sense if you think for a minute that they might have been as bad as the Ayleids.
in Skyrim alone you find ruins with trapped arenas or vivisectionist rooms.
Just because they were a highly advanced and wise civilization doesn't mean that COMPASSION or EMPATHY were seen as virtues.
They created the Numidium, which people forgets.

making them good boys is super lame
especialy when everyone in tamriel is a super racist
but they arent really fleshed out so I guess nothing of value was lost
The alleged indecent may or may not have happened the exact way the information on it is presented in the setting. It's also real life levels of "evil", It can be excused or coped with.

Tell that to those who still believe the ayleid worshipped daedra and gutted people for fun.
The cosmopolitan multi-racial society was pretty much exclusive to the Septim empire, because Tiber extended the promise of freedom of religion to the Nords (who were the majority of his army), Bretons, and Dunmer, and eventually the rest. Religions are self-governing and have jurisdiction everywhere but only over their followers, so Temple Ordinators from Vvardenfel could arrest a heretic living in Cyrodiil, but they had to go through the proper Imperial bureaucratic channels (unlike the Morag Tong who just ignored that so they were dissolved).
Prior to the 3rd era, everyone hated each other and TESO can't really represent this and be an MMORPG at the same time.
Even earlier than that in the 1st era, there were no strong racial identities. Different clans of Dwemer, tribes of Nedes, and cities of elves fought their own kind nearly constantly. It was them vs everyone else. Think of it like the early Hellenistic era: the Greeks didn't give a shit that they were all Greek, they had immediate problems with the next city-state over and that was more important than any national identity.
So the Dwemer betrayal of the Falmer should be expected. The Dwemer of Skyrim already had a reputation for excessive cruelty and isolationism, and they were more centralised and larger than other Dwemer clans because they were connected to each other through Blackreach. The Falmer wanted to survive as the Nedes were exterminating them and the Dwemer wanted slaves. The Falmer knew they were never going to be treated fairly in the first place: they were a highly religious surface-dwelling culture being absorbed into an atheistic underground-dwelling culture so they were going to be at odds with each other from the start. The Dwemer would have to put limitations on the Falmer to prevent uprisings, plus it took generations for the Falmer degeneration to fully take effect.
So explain to me how did the dwemer that lived in fortified cities and had access to armies of robots, time bending magic and could even fool gods lose to a bunch of mudhut dwellers that used sticks as weapons?
Ever notice how anytime there’s a Morrowind thread, it usually turns into getting mad at how popular Skyrim is and shitting on it and everyone who plays it?
Meanwhile, a Skyrim thread is just people talking about the game and their favourite mods?
Makes you think…
Remember, Sotha Sil was such a chad that the reason of why Mephala even agreed to stop Schizo Nocturnal in ESO, was because she wanted "private meetings" with him AKA, she wanted to be manhandled hard by Him and his literal third leg of a wiener up her womb.
I really fricking hate this artwork. It feels so soulless. I hate the tryhard positivity of it, the tryhard emotiveness, the fricking bright colors and the fact these races get along when they shouldn't. It looks like some nu-WoW shit.

And in those days the empire of the Cyrodiils was dead, save in memory only, for through war and slug famine and iniquitous rulers, the west split from the east and Colovia's estrangement lasted some four hundreds of years. And the earth was sick with this sundering. Once-worthy western kings, of Anvil and Sarchal, of Falkreath and Delodiil, became through pride and habit as like thief-barons and forgot covenant. In the heartland things were no better, as arcanists and false moth-princes lay in drugged stupor or the studies of vileness and no one sat on the Throne in dusted generations. Snakes and the warnings of snakes went unheeded and the land bled with ghosts and deepset holes unto cold harbors. It is said that even the Chim-el Adabal, the amulet of the kings of glory, had been lost and its people saw no reason to find it.
And it was in this darkness that King Hrol set out from the lands beyond lost Twil with a sortie of questing knights numbered eighteen less one, all of them western sons and daughters. For Hrol had seen in his visions the snakes to come and sought to heal all the borders of his forebears. And to this host appeared at last a spirit who resembled none other than El-Estia, queen of ancient times, who bore in her left hand the dragonfire of the aka-tosh and in her right hand the israeliteels of the covenant and on her breast a wound that spilt void onto her mangled feet. And seeing El-Estia and Chim-el Adabal, Hrol and his knights wailed and set to their knees and prayed for all things to become as right. Unto them the spirit said, I am the healer of all men and the mother of dragons, but as you have run so many times from me so shall I run until you learn my pain, which renders you and all this land dead.
And the spirit fled from them, and they split among hills and forests to find her, all grieving that they had become a villainous people. Hrol and his shieldthane were the only ones to find her, and the king spoke to her, saying, I love you sweet Aless, sweet wife of Shor and of Auri-el and the Sacred Bull, and would render this land alive again, not through pain but through a return to the dragon-fires of covenant, to join east and west and throw off all ruin. And the shieldthane bore witness to the spirit opening naked to his king, carving on a nearby rock the words AND HROL DID LOVE UNTO A HILLOCK before dying in the sight of their union.
When the fifteen other knights found King Hrol, they saw him dead after his labors against a mound of mud. And they parted each in their way, and some went mad, and the two that returned to their homeland beyond Twil would say nothing of Hrol, and acted ashamed for him.
But after nine months that mound of mud became as a small mountain, and there were whispers among the shepherds and bulls. A small community of believers gathered around that growing hill during the days of its first churning, and they were the first to name it the Golden Hill, Sancre Tor. And it was the shepherdess Sed-Yenna who dared climb the hill when she heard his first cry, and at its peak she saw what it had yielded, an infant she named Reman, which is "Light of Man."
And in the child's forehead was the Chim-el Adabal, alive with the dragon-fires of yore and divine promise, and none dared obstruct Sed-Yenna when she climbed the steps of White-Gold Tower to place the babe Reman on his Throne, where he spoke as an adult, saying I AM CYRODIIL COME.
Goddamn I miss playing TES, guess I'll play Skyrim again with a frickload of mods
Still remember when I was a 14 year old boy playing Skyrim, oblivion and Morrowind for the first time.....now I'm 20 and tes VI is still like 2-3 years away from us
>2-3 years away from us
lel no. It took 4 years to make Fallout 4 from Skyrim, and 8 years to make Shartfield from FO4. They haven't even released DLC for Shartfield yet, assuming the don't just abandon it for doing poorly. I wouldn't expect it to come out for at least another 6-8 years, although with assistance from AI, it could come quicker.
>"heavily influenced by india"
The metaphysics of CHIM and Vivec are influenced by Hinduism, that's it.
Dunmer are influenced by a bunch of different cultures, like Japan, Hebrews and even Romans.
Now go tell your people to use utensils when preparing food.
It is the same autist shitting the /tesg/ threads when ESO is mentioned to a point he even started to evade bans it is some schizo from /wowg/ who got anal when people left that shit to RP there as dunmer slavers and never came back
Why do people make Azura out to be some b***h who doesn't care about anything? Out of all deadra and aedra she is the one who cares the most. She answers prayers, she doesn't frick over her followers and she keeps her word. In tes she is THE deity to worship if you are looking for someone who gives a shit
>turns all Chimer dark skinned and red eyed over something three buttholes did
That wasn't done by her. Daedra can't influence the material world in such a direct way. It's most likely something the Tribunal done and offloaded onto Azura to take the blame for.
Even if it was, I can't think of a single weaker curse that "you're a different color now. Also, it helps you blend in to your new environment. Bet you feel stupid now."
Azura is known to be caring yes, but incredibly petty. Meridia is the one you should be praying to, all that she requires is you don't frick with the dead and she'll leave you to your own. There's zero intrigue to her, no desires to conquer or convert and is plain and simple in maintaining her own Daedric sphere within Oblivion.
>sided with ayleids
It's because they were praying to her. And most of Ayleid history is written by Imperial scholars. I very much wouldn't doubt that Meridia would cast out her blessing to anybody doing the flesh sculpture shit because that's borderline necromancy (of which not ALL Ayleids even practiced mind you).
>Meridia is the one you should be praying to, all that she requires is you don't frick with the dead and she'll leave you to your own.
The reason there arent that many Meridia-Cults is because she literally throws them at suicide-missions against Undead or Necormancers.
meanwhile Azura >"Queen of Dawn and Dusk I seek your wisdom" >"I dont think you are really ready for my wisdom but if you really want here is what you have to do" >"oh no I cannot face this horrible truth how could you do this to me"
I like to think that Azura is the Deadra of common sense and people literally go insane when she tells them to not do something batshit moronic
The reason there aren't many Meridia cults is simply because she doesn't require much devotions and such, nor fealties and tributes. She doesn't grant much boons outside of destroying the undead to keep the cycle of life unmolested. She's the perfect Daedric Prince that has a simple goal and structure. Her devotees don't even bother cleaning her shrines because she doesn't really need to. No sacrifices and all. Her realm, the Colored Rooms is just her going on sermons and such, no orgies, no forever-tortures, no world-shattering prophecies. It's literally just her talking much to the boredom of the other princes and people when they visit. It is, in other words, max comfy.
Ghosts of the Tribunal is canon, her soul escaped the soultrap by sheer hatred and is now haunting her former followers and even her mask waiting for someone to resurrect her again.
And she is Livid at the dunmer after they discovered what she did. And Dagoth Ur survived because he is now the very ash and heartstones erupting from Red mountain, Even his mask carries his will
Any mod that ups the difficulty/kinda just spices things up for someone like me who has beaten the game like 30 times and knows where everything is by heart?
"Wildcat - Combat of Skyrim" plus "Wildcat Realistic Damage" works for me. Using spells and poisons to exploit enemy racial weaknesses actually becomes valuable, and if you frick it up you can get beasted. Bosses are actually bosses when you can kill most enemies in 1-3 hits and then you sneak attack crit a Draugr Deathlord and he just sprints over and decapitates you. It doesn't work well with CC content though: you can get by, but it does get annoying when every enemy in a CC encounter might as well be 3x your level.
I use it with "VioLens - A Killmove Mod SE" (which also works on AE with some cleaning) to limit VATS because it's just fricking annoying and dangerous having VATS come on in the middle of a fight and you're locked in to a killmove while 3 enemies attack you (especially ranged killmoves, I can't even count the number of times I've missed a spell on a close target and the camera tracks a fireball flying across the map and hitting a deer, meanwhile I'm getting stabbed by the bandit).
"Summermyst - Enchantments of Skyrim" is a good one as well. It adds loads of new enchantments to loot, vendors, and enemy levelled equipment. It's quite entertaining/scary when you attack some bandits, one of them shoots Serana with an enchanted bow and stuns her, so she gets flipped up into the air. It makes combat very unpredictable and combined with the other mods, you actually have to analyse your targets before you attack them and develop a plan.
Finally there's "Beyond Skyrim: Bruma" and Arsemoor's "Live Another Life" and "LAL - Bruma patch" so you can start a playthrough in Cyrodiil and the main quest doesn't start until you reach Helgen. It's a bit tricky to get going because the latest update broke Live Another Life and Arsemoor is being a dick about it. Manually cleaning Beyond Skyrim and verifying the integrity of game files worked for me.
Why is TES lore so interesting? I only played Skyrim and I still never miss threads like this. Is it the writer who locked himself in a room and did drugs?
Kirkbride and his contributions have been massively overrated by people who think the mushroom story is the funniest thing on the planet and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
Probably the guy that laid the foundation for all that followed. Ted Peterson was one of the finest writers TES ever had.
The drug guy has struggled to find gainful employment post Bethesda so it is doubtful he is the one responsible.
>The drug guy has struggled to find gainful employment post Bethesda so it is doubtful he is the one responsible.
He's part of it, but it only worked in Morrowind because there were other, smarter people in charge. The dude has no common sense, which is why all his OOG stuff is irritating nonsense.
This is the general things many people dont get about timeless classics or great storytelling.
Its very rarely just one person like with Tolkien, generally it has a lot to do with the people who were around the creatives to tardwrangle them.
Just look at hollywood:
If Lucas didn't have tardwranglers Star Wars might have been something entirely different not nearly as successful.
If Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman didnt dunk on Dan Aykroid's script Ghostbusters might have been a b-movie no one remembers instead of a lightning in a bottle.
Its a combination of things that led to it. Like the fact that someone had to come in and somehow tie the bits of lore that existed in daggerfall and arena into something that kinda made sense. Kirkbride was more then a bit of a frickin lunatic but hes basically become myth himself and the wilder stories of him being a drug lunie are basically false. Its also a case of using alot of hindu faith shit which is very under utilized. Probably cause no one gives a shit about India and those fricks having religious texts the legnth of basically every other religious texts combined. Also while kirkbride gets the credit it was like 3 main writers that designed the world. Its complicated and funny enough at this point is a myth onto itself.
Because both Kirkbride and Ted read enough myth and history to understand how a myth is created emulated this for the writing in TES.
Just read up some of the historical sources on the Trojan Wars, it is so fricking bizarre how wildly the accounts on it differ based on who wrote it and then you will understand that the Battle of Red Mountain is essentially a copy of it.
TES lore feels like actual real-life history. Not every single analysis of events is a dry exposition dump. Normally it is propaganda, or a study of some magic art that just hits on a historical character in the process, or is a collection of jokes, or anything else. The method of presentation sets it apart from other loreheavy series, unfortunately, most players don't read the books and instead trawl through the wikis, so they never get the feeling of cracking open a study of Dwemer history right outside the doors of an ancient underground city.
If you want a similar setting go read about Glorantha by Gregg Stafford (a fair bit of elder scrolls lore is inspired by it and vice versa).
Another cool setting with very unique lore is Tekumel from Empire of the petal throne
Why are zoom-zoom's suddenly acting like Morrowind is cool when they don't have the attention span to play it? Is it the new troony game ala New Vegas?
It's just his job. At least he isn't directly scamming people, I guess. Somebody is fine with his level of art - somebody pays him. There's no rule that you should actually try at the workplace.
But you did that already.

Ok for real why the FRICK did the Dwemer do that shit to the Falmer, it literally makes no sense.
Both dwemer and ayleid were objectively EVIL, satanic-level evil.
The only mainline TES game I haven't played at this point is Arena and I can confirm that all elves are evil and must be killed.
Ayleids depend on their city state. Many allied with the Alessian Nedes and cohabited with them. Not all Ayleids practiced tiger sports and wailing wheels, those are actually assigned to specific cities of the Daedraphile Barsaebic Ayleids (Ceyatatar and Vindasel respectively). Many Ayleids worshipped the Aedra, and many Nedes worshipped the Daedra. It wasn't until Marukh's reforms that a purely Aedric pantheon was enforced over the Alessian Nedes and their Ayleid vassals.

Nope you got it backwards. Snow Elves were the evil as frick ones. Dwemer didn't have the balls to just wipe out an evil race, so they got betrayed and stupidly blinded them just to keep them alive. Snow Elves only devolved into monsters because they were already monsters on the inside.
The falmer aren't evil, they tolerated the nords
The scale of evil buttholes of nirn in TES in order
>Sload
>Ayleids
>Dwemer
>The falmer aren't evil, they tolerated the nords
>razing an entire city to the ground and putting the citizens to the sword in one night is tolerating the nords
Because they literally got a falseflag thinking the nords would use the Eye of Magnus at them and others.
And it was hinted that it is Herma Mora who did that
It is explained that mournhold is being rebuilt after the entire Kamal invasion, since the salty Vampire snow elven survivors who became molag bal's b***hes in Akavir hates the dunmer for not coming to their rescue.
They created the Numidium, which people forgets.
It's also explained why Cyrodil has no jungle. But we both know the true reason is that Bethesda is full of inept and greedy hacks that should have never been able to work in the industry.
making them good boys is super lame
especialy when everyone in tamriel is a super racist
but they arent really fleshed out so I guess nothing of value was lost
The alleged indecent may or may not have happened the exact way the information on it is presented in the setting. It's also real life levels of "evil", It can be excused or coped with.
>The alleged indecent may or may not have happened the exact way the information on it is presented in the setting.
Tell that to those who still believe the ayleid worshipped daedra and gutted people for fun.
night of tears was a dwemer false flag
The cosmopolitan multi-racial society was pretty much exclusive to the Septim empire, because Tiber extended the promise of freedom of religion to the Nords (who were the majority of his army), Bretons, and Dunmer, and eventually the rest. Religions are self-governing and have jurisdiction everywhere but only over their followers, so Temple Ordinators from Vvardenfel could arrest a heretic living in Cyrodiil, but they had to go through the proper Imperial bureaucratic channels (unlike the Morag Tong who just ignored that so they were dissolved).
Prior to the 3rd era, everyone hated each other and TESO can't really represent this and be an MMORPG at the same time.
Even earlier than that in the 1st era, there were no strong racial identities. Different clans of Dwemer, tribes of Nedes, and cities of elves fought their own kind nearly constantly. It was them vs everyone else. Think of it like the early Hellenistic era: the Greeks didn't give a shit that they were all Greek, they had immediate problems with the next city-state over and that was more important than any national identity.
So the Dwemer betrayal of the Falmer should be expected. The Dwemer of Skyrim already had a reputation for excessive cruelty and isolationism, and they were more centralised and larger than other Dwemer clans because they were connected to each other through Blackreach. The Falmer wanted to survive as the Nedes were exterminating them and the Dwemer wanted slaves. The Falmer knew they were never going to be treated fairly in the first place: they were a highly religious surface-dwelling culture being absorbed into an atheistic underground-dwelling culture so they were going to be at odds with each other from the start. The Dwemer would have to put limitations on the Falmer to prevent uprisings, plus it took generations for the Falmer degeneration to fully take effect.
The dwemer were massive buttholes, even by mer standards.
>it literally makes no sense.
It makes perfect sense if you think for a minute that they might have been as bad as the Ayleids.
in Skyrim alone you find ruins with trapped arenas or vivisectionist rooms.
Just because they were a highly advanced and wise civilization doesn't mean that COMPASSION or EMPATHY were seen as virtues.
So explain to me how did the dwemer that lived in fortified cities and had access to armies of robots, time bending magic and could even fool gods lose to a bunch of mudhut dwellers that used sticks as weapons?
It was a different time, the days of old. When magic filled the air.
It becomes a cakewalk to dab on someone that manages to nope themselves out of existence tbh.
They disappeared when all the dwemer have left was one last citadel. The war was already won by that point.
I know what happened to the Dwemer.
And no, I won't be saying.
Black person aids?
That's just what the tribunal wants you to think. It's actually reply to this post or your mother dies in her sleep tonight.
It's morning tho
It was the deep israelite
Morrowind threads became exactly the newbie Twitter repost colonies I always knew they would. Anyone shitting on this game is 100% justified.
>Ah, people talking about Morrowind
>NO NOT LIKE THAT
Isn't there some homosexual TES lore subredit you could be posting in?
>he isn't shitposting in both right now
Ngmi
Ever notice how anytime there’s a Morrowind thread, it usually turns into getting mad at how popular Skyrim is and shitting on it and everyone who plays it?
Meanwhile, a Skyrim thread is just people talking about the game and their favourite mods?
Makes you think…
I'm shitting on those who think Skyrim is the only game in the series, idiot. And now I'm shitting on you. Open wide!
>And now I'm shitting on you

based dining fan!
I bet the Nords fricked the Falmer out of existence, and that's why they can't shout so good no more
>Ysgramor, King Elf Rapist
If you frick your enemies, they win.
they can't shout so good because they were assraped by the chimer and the dwemer at Red Mountain
How do we stop the orc problem?
God damn look at the fricking SIZE of that orc's breasts.
> YWN be a fat old bastard who fricks dark elf pussy on the regular
why even live.
She's just a hooker bro. Granted, you will never find a dark elf but you too can frick hookers as a fat old bastard
Azura is a daedra though.
I want to frick Dork Azura
yeh i know i just wanted to use the dunmer coomer
Remember, Sotha Sil was such a chad that the reason of why Mephala even agreed to stop Schizo Nocturnal in ESO, was because she wanted "private meetings" with him AKA, she wanted to be manhandled hard by Him and his literal third leg of a wiener up her womb.
>White people are basically non-existent
this is the kind of society leftists want and it's fricking disgusting.
You're worried about white people in a fantasy setting where the color of your skin is hardly anything to point at in terms of differences.
Also an Imperial conquered all of Tamriel, If anything it's a Roman fantasy power setting in Oblivion where all the races are under your heel.

I really fricking hate this artwork. It feels so soulless. I hate the tryhard positivity of it, the tryhard emotiveness, the fricking bright colors and the fact these races get along when they shouldn't. It looks like some nu-WoW shit.
the fat bastard literally has argonian and kahjit slaves fanning him with palm leaves
And yet the Khajiit slave is looking at the performance with joy and excitement just like everyone else. Lol gtfo. Ironic that it's showing a stage play when the whole piece is so performative and gay.
>like everyone else
did you miss the mega milk orc yelling at her kids? in fact most of those people aren't smiling. you're just mad at nothing as usual
the slave is obviously locking eyes with the chad tiger kahjiit riding a guar on the other side
Same energy

And in those days the empire of the Cyrodiils was dead, save in memory only, for through war and slug famine and iniquitous rulers, the west split from the east and Colovia's estrangement lasted some four hundreds of years. And the earth was sick with this sundering. Once-worthy western kings, of Anvil and Sarchal, of Falkreath and Delodiil, became through pride and habit as like thief-barons and forgot covenant. In the heartland things were no better, as arcanists and false moth-princes lay in drugged stupor or the studies of vileness and no one sat on the Throne in dusted generations. Snakes and the warnings of snakes went unheeded and the land bled with ghosts and deepset holes unto cold harbors. It is said that even the Chim-el Adabal, the amulet of the kings of glory, had been lost and its people saw no reason to find it.
And it was in this darkness that King Hrol set out from the lands beyond lost Twil with a sortie of questing knights numbered eighteen less one, all of them western sons and daughters. For Hrol had seen in his visions the snakes to come and sought to heal all the borders of his forebears. And to this host appeared at last a spirit who resembled none other than El-Estia, queen of ancient times, who bore in her left hand the dragonfire of the aka-tosh and in her right hand the israeliteels of the covenant and on her breast a wound that spilt void onto her mangled feet. And seeing El-Estia and Chim-el Adabal, Hrol and his knights wailed and set to their knees and prayed for all things to become as right. Unto them the spirit said, I am the healer of all men and the mother of dragons, but as you have run so many times from me so shall I run until you learn my pain, which renders you and all this land dead.
And the spirit fled from them, and they split among hills and forests to find her, all grieving that they had become a villainous people. Hrol and his shieldthane were the only ones to find her, and the king spoke to her, saying, I love you sweet Aless, sweet wife of Shor and of Auri-el and the Sacred Bull, and would render this land alive again, not through pain but through a return to the dragon-fires of covenant, to join east and west and throw off all ruin. And the shieldthane bore witness to the spirit opening naked to his king, carving on a nearby rock the words AND HROL DID LOVE UNTO A HILLOCK before dying in the sight of their union.
When the fifteen other knights found King Hrol, they saw him dead after his labors against a mound of mud. And they parted each in their way, and some went mad, and the two that returned to their homeland beyond Twil would say nothing of Hrol, and acted ashamed for him.
But after nine months that mound of mud became as a small mountain, and there were whispers among the shepherds and bulls. A small community of believers gathered around that growing hill during the days of its first churning, and they were the first to name it the Golden Hill, Sancre Tor. And it was the shepherdess Sed-Yenna who dared climb the hill when she heard his first cry, and at its peak she saw what it had yielded, an infant she named Reman, which is "Light of Man."
And in the child's forehead was the Chim-el Adabal, alive with the dragon-fires of yore and divine promise, and none dared obstruct Sed-Yenna when she climbed the steps of White-Gold Tower to place the babe Reman on his Throne, where he spoke as an adult, saying I AM CYRODIIL COME.
THIS THREAD IS FULL OF FILTHY MER I PELINAL WHITESTRAKE HAVE COME TO CLEANSE IT
it was really dissapointing to find that pelinal you meet in the game is just "hoho hello friends" moron and not an elf genocider from the books
Technically he did go insane by the end so I just rationalized his rants as the schizophrenic ravings of a madman.
I'll probably chill out if Imperials owned all of Tamerial
He's the coolest character in ES lore, hands down!
Wake up, you've been dreaming.
>quite literally the only fact to the khajit race is that they are bunch of shifty wandering merchants and crack addicts
What did Todd mean by this?
you forgot thieves. they're literally just romanians
They were only disgusting gypsies in Skyrim. It was more nuanced in Morrowind, while Oblivion barely had racial identities.
literally the only fact to the khajit race is that they are bunch of shifty wandering merchants
way to go and out the fact that you've only ever played Skyrim
Goddamn I miss playing TES, guess I'll play Skyrim again with a frickload of mods
Still remember when I was a 14 year old boy playing Skyrim, oblivion and Morrowind for the first time.....now I'm 20 and tes VI is still like 2-3 years away from us
>2-3 years away from us
lel no. It took 4 years to make Fallout 4 from Skyrim, and 8 years to make Shartfield from FO4. They haven't even released DLC for Shartfield yet, assuming the don't just abandon it for doing poorly. I wouldn't expect it to come out for at least another 6-8 years, although with assistance from AI, it could come quicker.
>. I wouldn't expect it to come out for at least another 6-8
I'd think that too if starfield wasn't a failure

Project Tamriel will mod Hammerfell into Morrowind before Todd finishes ES6.

thats what I would do.

>"heavily influenced by india"
The metaphysics of CHIM and Vivec are influenced by Hinduism, that's it.
Dunmer are influenced by a bunch of different cultures, like Japan, Hebrews and even Romans.
Now go tell your people to use utensils when preparing food.
Black person, mournhould is literally Japanese architecture.

Hand it over, gotta get that spit before it dries out.
I had an aneurysm reading this. I fricking hate this memelord azura shit
I don't get it. What's the implication of where the ring came from?
I'm sorry your childhood sucked.
Her mouth
What a grand and intoxicating innocence.
Why do people make Azura out to be some b***h who doesn't care about anything? Out of all deadra and aedra she is the one who cares the most. She answers prayers, she doesn't frick over her followers and she keeps her word. In tes she is THE deity to worship if you are looking for someone who gives a shit
People want the daedra to be associated only with evil. They cant fathom that aedra and daedra are the same beings.
>she doesn't frick over her followers
>turns all Chimer dark skinned and red eyed over something three buttholes did
>turns all Chimer dark skinned and red eyed over something three buttholes did
That wasn't done by her. Daedra can't influence the material world in such a direct way. It's most likely something the Tribunal done and offloaded onto Azura to take the blame for.
You're telling me turning people into werewolves and vampires isn't affecting the world in a direct way?
Cursed beings lose ownership of their souls in TES while Dunmer are free to do whatever they want with their life and soul.
Is it ever stated that Vampires go to Cold Harbor when they die? Seems kind of counter productive of Molag to make them immortal if that's the case
Even if it was, I can't think of a single weaker curse that "you're a different color now. Also, it helps you blend in to your new environment. Bet you feel stupid now."
For the chimer it was a huge loss because they had the most golden skin out of all mer. It was a point of pride for them.
Idk, being turned into brown or heaven forbid, black sounds like pure horror to me.
nerevarine was just a tool for her to get a revenge on the tribunal
Azura is known to be caring yes, but incredibly petty. Meridia is the one you should be praying to, all that she requires is you don't frick with the dead and she'll leave you to your own. There's zero intrigue to her, no desires to conquer or convert and is plain and simple in maintaining her own Daedric sphere within Oblivion.
she sided with the ayleids, dude
they can't do that
they could gaslight the bosmer into worshipping them, though
oh so they can get men genes but not men souls? what the hell is inside their babies then? white souls? Disgusting
>sided with ayleids
It's because they were praying to her. And most of Ayleid history is written by Imperial scholars. I very much wouldn't doubt that Meridia would cast out her blessing to anybody doing the flesh sculpture shit because that's borderline necromancy (of which not ALL Ayleids even practiced mind you).
No no, the thing about the flesh-sculptures was that they were still alive and could scream...
They are basically flesh Atronachs stitched together by magic. You know what branch that is? Necromancy.
>Meridia is the one you should be praying to, all that she requires is you don't frick with the dead and she'll leave you to your own.
The reason there arent that many Meridia-Cults is because she literally throws them at suicide-missions against Undead or Necormancers.
meanwhile Azura
>"Queen of Dawn and Dusk I seek your wisdom"
>"I dont think you are really ready for my wisdom but if you really want here is what you have to do"
>"oh no I cannot face this horrible truth how could you do this to me"
I like to think that Azura is the Deadra of common sense and people literally go insane when she tells them to not do something batshit moronic
The reason there aren't many Meridia cults is simply because she doesn't require much devotions and such, nor fealties and tributes. She doesn't grant much boons outside of destroying the undead to keep the cycle of life unmolested. She's the perfect Daedric Prince that has a simple goal and structure. Her devotees don't even bother cleaning her shrines because she doesn't really need to. No sacrifices and all. Her realm, the Colored Rooms is just her going on sermons and such, no orgies, no forever-tortures, no world-shattering prophecies. It's literally just her talking much to the boredom of the other princes and people when they visit. It is, in other words, max comfy.
> such, no orgies, no forever-tortures, no world-shattering prophecies.
wow thats like cutting out all the fun stuff.
Which begs the question, if you want boredom so much why not worship one of the Nine Divines in the first place?
Because Meridia gives you sick light powers and golden armor.
frick this b***h
dont mind if I do
Anon, she's crazy. And not "text your parents death threats" crazy, I mean "cut your head off and eat it" crazy.
unfortunate for nerevar
yes
i see this as an absolute win, crazy woman frick the best everyone knows this anon.
Ghosts of the Tribunal is canon, her soul escaped the soultrap by sheer hatred and is now haunting her former followers and even her mask waiting for someone to resurrect her again.
And she is Livid at the dunmer after they discovered what she did.
And Dagoth Ur survived because he is now the very ash and heartstones erupting from Red mountain, Even his mask carries his will
>her soul escaped the soultrap
What soultrap?
everyone who plays MW ends up soultrapping her in the end for OP enchants
I didn't.
Any mod that ups the difficulty/kinda just spices things up for someone like me who has beaten the game like 30 times and knows where everything is by heart?
a randomizer maybe?
Try to play the game as a vampire.
"Wildcat - Combat of Skyrim" plus "Wildcat Realistic Damage" works for me. Using spells and poisons to exploit enemy racial weaknesses actually becomes valuable, and if you frick it up you can get beasted. Bosses are actually bosses when you can kill most enemies in 1-3 hits and then you sneak attack crit a Draugr Deathlord and he just sprints over and decapitates you. It doesn't work well with CC content though: you can get by, but it does get annoying when every enemy in a CC encounter might as well be 3x your level.
I use it with "VioLens - A Killmove Mod SE" (which also works on AE with some cleaning) to limit VATS because it's just fricking annoying and dangerous having VATS come on in the middle of a fight and you're locked in to a killmove while 3 enemies attack you (especially ranged killmoves, I can't even count the number of times I've missed a spell on a close target and the camera tracks a fireball flying across the map and hitting a deer, meanwhile I'm getting stabbed by the bandit).
"Summermyst - Enchantments of Skyrim" is a good one as well. It adds loads of new enchantments to loot, vendors, and enemy levelled equipment. It's quite entertaining/scary when you attack some bandits, one of them shoots Serana with an enchanted bow and stuns her, so she gets flipped up into the air. It makes combat very unpredictable and combined with the other mods, you actually have to analyse your targets before you attack them and develop a plan.
Finally there's "Beyond Skyrim: Bruma" and Arsemoor's "Live Another Life" and "LAL - Bruma patch" so you can start a playthrough in Cyrodiil and the main quest doesn't start until you reach Helgen. It's a bit tricky to get going because the latest update broke Live Another Life and Arsemoor is being a dick about it. Manually cleaning Beyond Skyrim and verifying the integrity of game files worked for me.
Yes, and this prostitute too. Traitors get the daedric katana.

Is Skywind out yet/coming out soon? At this rate I've been looking forward to this mod for longer than I played Morrowind
Why is TES lore so interesting? I only played Skyrim and I still never miss threads like this. Is it the writer who locked himself in a room and did drugs?
Kirkbride and his contributions have been massively overrated by people who think the mushroom story is the funniest thing on the planet and I'm tired of pretending otherwise.
Probably the guy that laid the foundation for all that followed. Ted Peterson was one of the finest writers TES ever had.
The drug guy has struggled to find gainful employment post Bethesda so it is doubtful he is the one responsible.
>The drug guy has struggled to find gainful employment post Bethesda so it is doubtful he is the one responsible.
He's part of it, but it only worked in Morrowind because there were other, smarter people in charge. The dude has no common sense, which is why all his OOG stuff is irritating nonsense.
This is the general things many people dont get about timeless classics or great storytelling.
Its very rarely just one person like with Tolkien, generally it has a lot to do with the people who were around the creatives to tardwrangle them.
Just look at hollywood:
If Lucas didn't have tardwranglers Star Wars might have been something entirely different not nearly as successful.
If Harold Ramis and Ivan Reitman didnt dunk on Dan Aykroid's script Ghostbusters might have been a b-movie no one remembers instead of a lightning in a bottle.
Its a combination of things that led to it. Like the fact that someone had to come in and somehow tie the bits of lore that existed in daggerfall and arena into something that kinda made sense. Kirkbride was more then a bit of a frickin lunatic but hes basically become myth himself and the wilder stories of him being a drug lunie are basically false. Its also a case of using alot of hindu faith shit which is very under utilized. Probably cause no one gives a shit about India and those fricks having religious texts the legnth of basically every other religious texts combined. Also while kirkbride gets the credit it was like 3 main writers that designed the world. Its complicated and funny enough at this point is a myth onto itself.
Because both Kirkbride and Ted read enough myth and history to understand how a myth is created emulated this for the writing in TES.
Just read up some of the historical sources on the Trojan Wars, it is so fricking bizarre how wildly the accounts on it differ based on who wrote it and then you will understand that the Battle of Red Mountain is essentially a copy of it.
>I only played Skyrim
>perpetuates the "Kirkbride did drugs" lie
You don't know the first thing about TES lore so your opinion doesn't matter.
TES lore feels like actual real-life history. Not every single analysis of events is a dry exposition dump. Normally it is propaganda, or a study of some magic art that just hits on a historical character in the process, or is a collection of jokes, or anything else. The method of presentation sets it apart from other loreheavy series, unfortunately, most players don't read the books and instead trawl through the wikis, so they never get the feeling of cracking open a study of Dwemer history right outside the doors of an ancient underground city.
If you want a similar setting go read about Glorantha by Gregg Stafford (a fair bit of elder scrolls lore is inspired by it and vice versa).
Another cool setting with very unique lore is Tekumel from Empire of the petal throne
Why are zoom-zoom's suddenly acting like Morrowind is cool when they don't have the attention span to play it? Is it the new troony game ala New Vegas?
this artist fricking sucks their entire bit is just softcore porn
Nice. Followed.

It's just his job. At least he isn't directly scamming people, I guess. Somebody is fine with his level of art - somebody pays him. There's no rule that you should actually try at the workplace.
