We like strong nord women here
She looks like she fucks imperials
I always pick Dunmer or Imperial
because I don't want to?
Their stats used to be so bad, so now most people don't have a leveled up bosmer.
>all meat diet
imagine the braaaps
I'd let her peel me tater if you catch my drift
She's goit loice in 'er fackin' pubes she does, makes fer a tasty treat when 'avin a lick o' 'er muffin innit?
can you describe them to me anon?
You ever smelled cat shit?
I do, which is weird because I don't normally like playing short races. They have absolutely no synergy with the way I like playing either.
>Cannibalistic merlet
Granted it's still better than a man or beast, but come on
I'll tell you why.
>Boring lore
>Shitty fucking aesthetic
>generic wood elves, don't even have an interesting Fae spin on them like Warhammer, besides a wood obsession and cannibalism they have a very generic culture that is very droll and boring to roleplay
>Altmer, Dunmer, Dwemer, and even Falmer and Orc lore blow Bosmer out of the fucking water, the only barely interesting thing is a tiny bit of their lore around their leadership and their mages, the Spinners, and that's literally it, there's no distinctly fascinating culture like the Dunmer or the Altmeri, their cities aren't much to look at and should've had their own chapter DLC instead of getting the shitty generic base game cities, there was hardly any effort
>Valenwood barely has anything interesting going on despite massive opportunity for it looking at the vast lore of Morrowind and everywhere else
Basically you either play a Altmer or a Dunmer, clowns pick Bosmer
altmer and dungmer are the reddit of elves
Cannabalism??? Where does that come from? Why?
The Green Pact has a Meat Mandate which states they have to eat a fallen enemy within three days of killing them
its a pact they made with thier god, imagine veganism but in reverse.
and only losers play Altmer and Dunmer, do you want to be a loser, AND a clown? didn't think so.
>Boring lore
>Literally artificial elves that once a year have a party to return to their eldritch formless monster form to devour all life
lorelet
Bosmer bussy
because i played breton instead
How is ESO these days? Never played it, but it seemed mediocre on release..
Just as mediocre, if not more so.
its ok but its not like other mmos like wow that u can play forever bc theres constantly new raids and better gear coming out
elder scrolls theme park
It's been 8 years, so it's improved drastically since. They've added 2 classes on top of the original 4, with another (Arcanist) coming out this summer.
Devs are extremely incompetent though and always cause some major bug to occur with every major update. They take no criticism either, apparently
I hear they did same patch last year that somehow ruined the entire game for a lot of older players. What exactly did they do if you know?
not him and i havent played in years but my buddy does, ur probably talking about the update where they nerfed damage by like 25% which made some of the content a lot harder.
they fucked up when they initially made the game and it was possible to do whats called 'weaving' which is where u press a skill thats on a cooldown and then weave in a light attack between each one to cancel the animation. they never fixed it and basically just built the game around it and since they nerfed the damage by so much it basically became required to clear a lot of the content from what my buddy was saying
Oh, that. Yeah, they basically butchered the combat and rotation dps to the point that some end game bosses would have been impossible to defeat. It got so bad that the devs had to make statements saying "just trust us. We know what we're doing".
Funny enough, they quietly realized they shit the bed. To compensate player's lost dps, they reduced every boss's health by about 5 to 10% I believe.
It's pretty gravy now, but I do know a lot of players quit the game after that patch. Even I find myself getting burn out every few months.
It's even more mediocre. The world has been deleveled and everywhere is now on easy mode except group dungeons. On top of that Zenimax has completely abandoned veteran and PVP players. Only play ESO if you actually like exploring Tamriel, and don't give them a cent. The only good part of the game nowadays is the worldspace and some of the lore.
it is still mediocre AT BEST, often actively terrible
do not touch
your curiosity is misplaced
same with fallout 76
fallout 76 is the ESO of fallout
shit lore, ugly, short
but I play a bosmer stam sorc
How's that going? Sometimes I regret going magicka. Staves feel so stiff compared to melee weapons
Great, especially with the hybridization letting us use some magicka abilities too. Crystal frags hits hard.
So you run pets or no?
Depends on the content. But most of the time I run both the scamp and the twilight with daedric prey.
>Cuz I play as a Golden Saint with VA, bitches
>They're pretty G as a race ethnically, but the amount of time to genuinely play as a character in a TES is already far too high to have it be a secondhand consideration
>Breton is the pure white-blood race
>misfit beings that couldn't hold any one form given a second chance by The Green to exist in stability in exchange for not actively harming the plantlife
>on the whim of a callous personification of Earth or if they reach a certain threshold of despair and fury they can shed their physical form, return to the genuine literal chaos they are and wreck havoc as a shapeless mass of teeth claws and any manner of hellish fleshform their fragmented consciousness can recall long enough to form out of possibility
>in-game the men are sniveling cockney runts that never do anything interesting
>in-game the women are just shallow hippies or yet another girlboss
>in-game depictions of the whole shapelessness aspect simply means if a werewolf isn't a Nord then it's probably a Bosmer
>in-game depictions of the whole 'no harming the plantlife' outside of books just means the occasional tent made of bones and leather as well as the off-hand mention of only eating meat
the TES audience is too casual for the Bosmer to ever really shine and I doubt anyone left in bethesda wants to do a worthwhile depiction anyhow. Wasted Potential: the race.
At least they're spared from a Cyrodiil-tier retconning. I have to mod in katanas to roleplay as a proper Nibenese adventurer, and even that feels hollow.
I play a bosmer named Legolas in every scrolls game.
their ears clip through my favorite helmets
Because it takes place in Skyrim not Valenwood
>played a bosmer for as long as i can remember
>dip into their lore one day
>find out they're cannibals
What's wrong with that?
it's reprehensible
it's still a bit off-putting. I'm a dunmer man now anyway
What were Bosmer like in your head before you looked up the lore?
like night elves or something
Only the ones in Valenwood. The ones living outside don't have to abide by the green pact.
they're ugly elves
they're short manlets
they're never important in any of the games or have any stakes in the world
they're smelly cannibal savages
they live in trees
they most definitely smell bad
their deities are dumb so it's hard to care about their religion
terrible boring armour and themes
not a single one of them has any direct interesting lore in the games, only references to something cooler (at least you can interact with all the different types of khajiit in the mmo)
I only play male characters in these games for self insert immersion (I am 6'2 so b*smer is not immersive for me) and/or so I can fuck all the hot babes.
Why on earth would I ever want to play as a b*smer?
Actual race of fruit flies.
Say that to my face fucker and not online, see what happens.
Because they aren't accurately portrayed anywhere in the games. To play a PC of one that actually follows the green pact would take forever to play. how long would it take to eat 1 Person? How many people do you kill in game? Every animal? Gotta eat them. The only way to get around this is to make all bosmer outside of Valenwood not follow the greenpact which is such a cop out and ruins the lore.
Because I play characters that kill ALL mer on sight.
They're the ugliest elves, and elves are all pretty ugly.
bosmer women are canonically the prettiest elves, and bosmer are canonically ugly gremlins.
