What happened to the weekend /tgesg/ threads? The last one was nine months ago.
a thread can only carry on so long after lack of content. All that can be discussed with TES has been discussed until 6 comes out.
>>94401598TES6 will only further deteriorate the setting and you know it. I’d honestly be happier if it never came out and we could just be left to circlejerk over what we already have in peace.
>>94401693yeah we can circlejerk like we do in our regular /tgesg/ threads.
>>94401693>TES6 will only further deteriorate the setting and you know itCounterpoint: outside of memes trying to prop it up, TES setting was never interesting in the first place. And people who usually masturbate to it are at best familiar with something from Skyrim, but desperately try to "fit in" and huff and puff how great the setting and lore are.They never were.
>>94401773boring contrarian opinion.
>>94401805It's not me who wants to circlejerk, anon
>hmm today we will try uesrpg 3e>system fun, however I struggle with just how much SHIT is in the setting and I refuse to dumb it down, end up burned out in 3 sessions from all the homework>make my own setting with the same mechanical caveats to run the system with>it is now fun>read 2e and restart our game in it because it is genuinely a better system
>>94401815>go into thread about setting>actually setting is dumb and boring>everyone claps at your grand wisdom
>>94401693my table my setting
>>94401548They're all busy reenacting Vivec's Sermons.
I don't get why you guys care about TES so much. It has hardly any remarkable or interesting features at all, its basically just /v/baby's first setting. I don't understand why you guys made the same general thread on repeat for weeks about it with absolutely no new good official content in sight.Explain. Why do you obsess over it? If there's features you like about it, surely you can just incorporate those into your own games and settings? I don't see how there is that much going on in TES that it's specifically worthwhile playing in TES over anything else.
>>94401598>All that can be discussed with TES has been discussed until 6 comes out.When's it coming out? Genuine question, Starfield seems to have bombed but it took most of Bethesda's resources for 10 years to make it. When did they start on TES6? When will they reasonably finish? I do want to play it, if it has new TES lore and a cool setting.
>>94401904>Point>(You)The funniest part is that you are trying to play a victim card, while being clearly clueless how TES general works
>>94401548the elder scrolls is a series of video games. not traditional games.
>>94401548for its traffic it really didn't deserve a weekly thread, it doesn't really belong on /tg/ to start with (forgivable but it is still a point against it), and there's hardly anything to talk about TES these days
I remember the anons in these threads working on some really cool highly detailed linguistic maps of Tamriel, I don’t know how long ago that was or if the project was ever completed.Anyone know anything about that?
>>94401548TES is video games dumb dumb.
>>94409473Yes but it is the only setting with lore on the same level as Runequest/Glorantha.
>>94409493>on the same levelOk Todd. Anything else you want to say for your adoring fans?>only/vg/ secondaries
>>94402725This was a discussion on /v/ not too long ago, That, Bethesda has a huge amount of employees for a game studio, why can they only release games at a snail's pace?
>>94402725>throwing>drinkingsensible chuckle
>>94402725>if it has new TES loreThere is new lore in the mmo. Nobody cares about it.
>>94402650It has an interesting mythology/religion and you actually interact with it in a manner that feels integrated with the game's setting.
She's the only Et'Ada worth any praise by mortals and you're Gay if you disagree
>>94402650>you guys made the same general thread on repeat for weeksYears.>>94416424Being the second or third least evil Daedra doesn’t automatically make her a benign god.
>>94401773I've always liked TES, though I feel like it just has too much stuff.There's nine provinces, and also an extra, and each of them has subregions and factions, and the ten races have complicated interactions that keep going back and forth (it's good to have interactions between races, but 10 is too many), and it has this really long history, and it's somewhat inconsistent but the devs don't believe in retconning so instead we end up with these bizarre convoluted explanations.In any single game, things are fine. But all 6 games together is a bit much. And of course, once you go MMO, everything gets fucked, and they insist on keeping all of the MMO lore in the canon.
>>94416424>>94416599>be allegedly non-evil>curse at least two races with permanent changes
>>94416599>Being the second or third least evil Daedra doesn’t automatically make her a benign god.oh yeah enlighten me on how she's evil>>94416734>curse at least two races with permanent changesDeserved. Nobody said she was blindly benevolent. That said there isn't anyone nearly quite as helpful as her except for maybe talos.
>>94416734>The "curse" is gray skin and red eyesTheir punishment is pretty lackluster.
>>94401773I disagree, I think TES is one of the best settings not just in a game but in fantasy as a whole
>>94416728god you're lame. 10 races is too little and the game worlds are 2 pathetically tiny to be anything worth shit. I want huge giant mmo sized worlds to explore that have huge massive regions and stuff not these pathetic babbies first backyard adventure sized maps they think are awesome when its barely above pathetic. and as for races there needs to be like 50-100 races not this pussies tiny world selection of 10. but no companies are capable of actually doing this because the industry is overrun with subhuman things like indians that cant make anything that isnt slop and the rest are woke modern retards with modern thinking and a lack of creativity. so the actual games we should have by now will never happen because to many subhumans making games now and thus the current state of the industry and why its ass.
>>94416728>>94402650For me, the appeal of Tamriel has always come from it sort of being a “free-play” Middle Earth. Tolkien’s legendarium exists in a very specific context and is trying to achieve very specific ends with its romantic mythopoeia, but TES is irreverent, its convoluted and layered mythology and history exists only for the sake of those in-setting. Additionally, the clutter is a huge part of the appeal for me, I like to see it as an example of a “tasteful” or “restrained” kitchen sink setting. I’m glad they don’t retcon lore, if they did then the setting would have been ruined like they did to Fallout.>>94409493What do you mean “same level”? Idk what your measure of quality is but WH Fantasy is also really good IMO.
>>94401548TES merchandising has been neglected for Fallout, and we aren't getting any more until the next game.
>magic is very common, has low barriers to entry, can do virtually anything and has little or no drawbacks, but society in most places still resembles a theme park version of medieval Europedogshit setting
>>94417478Have you ever made a game? What you’re proposing is essentially impossible outside of random generation for the map.
>>94420783>magic is very commonYes, but not commonly used. Most of the people who you see using it are adventurers or people with power. The commom folk may learn one or two out of conveninence, like ignite a fire or find key.>has low barriers to entryYes, but you ain't going that far wihtout work on it.>can do virtually anythingExactly, virtually. Doesn't mean people do everything with it.>has little or no drawbacksDraining Magicka and possibly casuing destruction seen like a huge drawnback. That's why the Mage's Guild exist, to make sure people learn magic properly.
>>94420783nigga doesn't know anything about the setting
>>94401548Lack of content. Also NOBODY has faith in Bethesda to deliver on TES VI anymore so the series is in limbo with all the new developments being done by big mod projects that aren’t canon.
>>94401773people who masturbate to it are nearly all memewind fans
>>94404632self important retard
>>94423556after 12 years of NORDS, 76 , and SPACE BALLS, I don't understand how anyone but the greatest beaten wives cna even care, fuck I saw the writing on the wall when skyrimjob came out
the Reach belongs to the Forsworn
>played a one shot (5e)>I wanted to play paladin but I was a lazy ass so ended up picking a premade bard since I didn't bring a sheet (I knew DM would bring premade though so I didn't stress over it)>2 girls who roleplayed way too much made it drag far longer than it should have, so we'll have to set a second sessionIdk why but I just have so much fun playing fairly amoral (but not truly evil) bards.
>>94428640Until they learn to play nice with others they'll forever be nothing more than fodder for adventures like pre-TES3 Orcs.If all they do is fight with outsiders then all outsiders will do is fight them back.
>>94428640it's telling that they produced emperors of Tamriel and so few other races have
>>94416728>and they insist on keeping all of the MMO lore in the canonNo one of any reasonable intelligence actually goes along with this, same with the Fallout show's canon changes.
>>94429450The MMO lore is fine you insufferable faggotron.
The real problem with most TES lore discussions is that they start sucking off Kirkbride who is the fucking middest of wits. Most of TES is pretty interesting in the sense that it's a high fantasy world with some stuff swapped around, a bit of gnosticism, a dash of weebshit. And then you have Morrowind, which is like fucking weirdo central. And the fact that Kirkbride can't stop writing fanfiction that the various lore retards try to pass off as canon.
>>94401773No.
>>94428640I'd like to reach between her legs for her forsworn pussy.
>>94420783>can do virtually anythingFlying is illegal now
