So where is the Imperial Cult in Cyrodil and Skyrim? They should be everywehere there right?
>yupee nub nub!
>>738722219Everytime I see him I smile :)
>>738721836The Imperial Cult is the missionary arm of the greath faiths meant for remote provinces, why would they be in the main human provinces? They have the individual cults instead.
>>738722219He looks like any random mumble rapper.
>>738718942>women have cartoonishly over-exaggerated accent>men have different accent than women>men sppeak way too loud
>>738718942Females sound passable for Morrowind but the men are a little rough. Not as good as Imga imohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dc3kiPe7Tnk
>>738722327nice
>>738721836The Imperial Cult is a missionary thing meant to teach provincial retards the basics of the Imperial pantheon, in Cyrodiil everybody has already known the Divines for thousands of years so they all have hundreds of individual cults instead

>>738729387You pretty much have to go to the direct in game sources. I still use UESP but only to go to the reference section and then discard everything post Morrowind.

Tangential note, but it makes me unreasonably upset that 20+ years later Dwemer metal still doesn't have a formal name or even a hint (besides the default assumption of tonal autism) of how it is made. It's not even that good, godammit.
>>738732649it's just brass

>>738732649Brass or bronze is what it's all called
>>738732649Dwemer Metal. Made by Dwemer, from Dwemer (possibly)
>>738733794>>738737601brass is weaker than steel, but dwemer metal is stronger than steel.ergo, it cannot be brass and has to be some other thing.
>>738737883And ebony is a wood and not crystallized space god blood. I'm telling you internal Lore Secrets. Brass or bronze is how you refer to it if you refer to it.
>>738737883Well this is the same setting where "ebony" is an ultra hard volcanic glass instead of just a type of particularly hard wood

>>738739227It is, but it is on par for Russians, needing to insert themselves everywhere they can.
>>738739315Bretons only become French-expies with the utter flanderization that starts in Morrowind but kicks into gear in Oblivion and enters hyperdrive in Skyrim. Have you considered that you might be the retard?

>>738742243The produce from the farms just barely offscreen.
>>738742243The ascadian isles are dotted with newly built saltrice plantations, traditionally food would be imported, but Imperial settlement has increased the demand for food.
>>738740985How old is Vivec even supposed to be? The town i mean
>>738742674Second era.
>>738742674>When Vivec City was built is unknown and its origins are deep rooted in the Tribunal Temple's mythology. Vivec's 36 lessons claimed it was founded in the days of Resdaynia,[3] referring to the Chimer's ancient name for Morrowind. The province received its modern name sometime after the first eruption of Red Mountain in 1E 668.[15] The events that lead to the city's founding in the 24th sermon take place after the Skyrim Conquests in the third century, as established in previous sermons.[16][17] The historical-fiction series Poison Song dates Vivec City's initial construction in the aftermath of the War of the First Council and Sun's Death,[18][19] which in the series' given timeline is roughly 1E 685.[20][Note 1]
does anyone else find it difficult to play skyrim as anything but a nord or imperial? the main story narrative is so linear showing up with Fus as a khajiit just ruins my immersion immediately
>>738740985Why don't Indoril and Dres have Cantons?
>>738743340no presence in vvardenfell

>>738743171I mod Skyrim to an unrecognizable state and I'll always play a bosmer, altmer or dunmer.
>>738740985God I wish we could get thisEvery vivec remake is either complete ass, still way too spread out, or keeps all of the cantons as is for no goddamn reasonYou could do so much with the lack of xbox restrictions, but everyone is either retarded or think what the city was really lacking that whole time was just extra decorations

>>738743340>>738745296POV: Indoril nobles look on in horror from their island chapel while the Empire and other houses carve up Vvardenfell
>>738747721They're flipping it so that the palace itself is closer to red mountain, protecting the city, and the front of the city facing the sea is more sensible in the context of a vvardenfell that isn't a lone island in the void, vivec actually being a port city at the centerpoint of two of the biggest water channels in tamriel next to the nibenAdditionally, the sides now being the main land entry makes more sense for vvardenfell rather than having silt striders and gondolas go an extra mile just to sit in the obvious-last-minute-placeholder-location in front of the foreign quarter
>>738718236It's so gay to literally just put a Berserk creature in.Can I join the dev team and add Princess Celestia from the horse show since random pop culture references to things devs like are cool? Unicorns are at least TES canon.
>>738748741In the new stuff, sureBut the lesson that should've been learned from almas thirr was not "wow, everyone really loves having to walk around this big ass building exterior", that's why TR is planning to move that silt strider from the opposite sideThe vanilla cantons are like if you took an american mall meant to be circumnavigated with a car, replaced 70% of the interior stores with long winding hallways, and placed it in an ancient village where nobody has carts or horsesThere's a fucking reason bethesda wanted it to look like this and only came up with the closed canton design late in development as a cope when the beta build ran like shit on the xbox

Morrowind's music is such a vibe. Admittedly there aren't as many tracks as you get in Oblivion or Skyrim but I can remember getting annoyed or bored at those games' music whilst Morrowind I'd settle in for no matter how often they repeat
>>738752882The title theme annoys me sometimes, it naturally stands out more than the othersReally the main improvements the later games introduced was separate music for different spaces and restricting combat music interruptions more, which I'm glad mods introduceVery sad vibes to go from plain to volcano to city to dungeon to temple and have the same track playing the entire time occasionally intercut with the cliff racer alarm
I just know that when Hammerfell comes out, /v/ will love it as much as they love GTA:SA
Anyone ever think about how the retarded Russian AllinAll sperged out about how he was making Kirkbridian fanart and not TES fanart?

So how do fairies work in ES? Why aren't there any in Morrowind?
>>738756120NahI said what I saidDunmer slaves can handle the Morrowind environment and harsh treatment better
>>738756697I do believe the general assumption amongst the TES lore people is that they are related to the earthbones/EhlnofeyThat's all i can say really
>>738756697there aren't any fairies in Morrowind because they only live on the Summerset Isles, on the opposite corner of the continent.
>>738756697Why the fuck would any intelligent race want to live on Morrowind?You know who claimed that place? Dumbmer, who were tricked by daedra into wanting to suffer, Dwarves, who lived underground like the gross evil molepeople they were, and Nords, who are pathetic literal retards and took over while the previous two were weakened from fighting each other all the time before getting kicked out as soon as the others put aside their differences to kick snowman ass instead.
>>738757595Argonians were also indigenous to the southern portion before the proto-Dres cut down their trees and terraformed the place
>>738755856Redoran will be quick, it's the same content amount/area as Grasping fortune + Wealth Beyond Measure, it'll probably be done in 5 years, and dres probably will in 10 years if they don't get sidetracked by almalexia

>>738759725cool
>>738758697GF was 3 years after DoD, and it had several years in development before that, and we're still a good year or two out from WBMRedoran 1 might be 3 or 4 years out if we're lucky, but the Blacklight release area isn't even started yetHell, poison song alone has been indev for 5 years
>>738759771Yeah, that's just someone's remake of Tribunal's Mournhold
>>738718236Isn't this nigga from love live?
I think a complete Morrowind (minus Telvanni remakes) is probably going to happen by 2030, bar any further delays with Dres.
>>738761578>2030This is a year of the future! Stop actually being just around the corner!Next thing you know it'll be 2049.
>>738761578*complete Morrowind exteriorsShould've clarified that
>>738742674The city was founded in the First Era. Vivec's crib/temple is the oldest building, and the temple-related cantons (Temple, Saint Delyn and Saint Olms) were built after his ascension to godhood. The Great Houses and Arena cantons were built in the Second Era, while the Foreign Quarter was built early in the Third Era.
>>738761578Doubtful. Even if they continue at current pace they're still bogged down by things like world design, asset development and implementation. There's a lot that goes into making new regions and it's an ever evolving process. Heck- they're still ironing out the final look for Sundered Scar. >>738746816
>>738761578Weren't there exteriors for the whole Blacklight/Northern redoran? Or were these scrapped
>>738762303Scrapped
>>738718236>>738720072What is his endgame?
>>738763109why
>>738763652His methods are unknowable, but his hunger for gold is insatiable.
>>738763739Dunno, but that area is still years away from release. Maybe they wanna accommodate a huge Blacklight, but one that runs better than this version did.
>>738763739Like most older worldspaces it was janky and just reused vanilla assets
>>738761686They don't make the exteriors all at once, they still work through the release scheduleThat's why the redos have been happening, so they can work on those in between new areas
>>738764902>>738764987oh ok fair enough
>>738737883My own headcanon is bronzealuminum, like medieval people he no idea how to refine aluminum and you could mix it with bronze and engineer it to be lighter and stronger than each individual elementAlso color matches
>>738718236This is antiseptic
So WHAT is Dagoth Ur? Is he even real? It makes no sense for him to be the original Voryn Dagoth who was definitively killed by all accounts (and why would the tribunal not thoroughly kill him when they sure as fuck made sure to do so with Nerevar?)
>>738765853How foolish of you to think that mere death would slow a god down. He is a god! How can you kill a god?
>>738738216>in the surfaceBrazilians never learn...
>>738766024As fun as that is, the heart of lorkhan for all we know of it doesn't resurrect the dead. Otherwise why wouldn't it resurrect Nerevar too?
>>738766459Because Nerevar didn't play with the heart and invert his existence
>>738765853When Voryn Dagoth died he had developed a connection to the heart that defied all mortal understanding. Dagoth Ur the god isnt so much the man himself but the shadow of lorkhans heart wearing his image
>>738766459maybe it did!
>>738765853I like the theory that he's a god
>>738739681>lady n personally contributingvery auspicious for hammerfell
>>738739612Assume the lore explanation would be something along the lines of mountains being natural barriers or some such nonsense.
>>738765853He's the dream of Lorkhan
>>738767667What was the Dark Brotherhood's problem?
>>738752882Very strong disagreeAdding more music is the first thing I do every time I happen to reinstall

>>738771062my music folder for morrowind is 4gb, i've added to it over 5 years and I don't remember where most of these songs come from
I wish musicians contributing to PTR was more common, some of the stuff for Cyrodiil sounds like it was pulled straight out of a King's Field game

>>738771642do you mean the music from this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/55779I like the dungeon synth stuff a lot
>>738771713Yeah, that author's music
I saw in this dev discord there was debate on the presence of early firearms in Tamriel and on if they fit the "vibe" and if they should be allowed. Of note>Flashgrit is a thing used for mining>Fireworks from Akavir are canon>Cannons from Hammerfell are canonAn idea some people seemed to like was for firearms to be a redguard thing. What do you guys think? Imagine if someone added a new skill just for firearms so you could actually make classes based around them.
>>738752882I prefer oblivion but its still neat

>I have no hands and I must rubOK, but can I get a guts waifu, like when Slan kisses Guts.
>>738772635Well good news, if you're just into making assets they have tons of assets they need made!https://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/assetYOU could help us get new releases of TR and PT much faster!

>>738772305It would just be roped into marksman, like everything from bows to throwing knives already isYou can really tell which playstyle they didn't give a shit about back then
>>738772698And asset devs are one of the main things that hold up new releases, tooThe amount of shit that gets shipped half finished with placeholders that end up becoming permanent because nobody wanted to make more unique stuff and just everyone moves on and forgets about it is sad
>>738772353then join TR

Is there anything redeeming about the Hlaalu? Playing as them you get the feeling of being a slimy opportunist which is so fun. But they have no aspect to them that is slightly redeeming. All the other Houses by contrast have something awesome about them. The Redoran have their military pride to counterbalance their ineptitude when it comes to statesmanship. The Telvanni have their cool magic which makes up for them being an incoherent collection of psychos. The Indoril have their religious autism which gives them a mystique and a huge degree of authority, along with a genuine care for the people of Morrowind. Even the Dres who we know almost nothing about and are largely as seen as completely “evil”, have something interesting going on with their adherence to the 3 Good Daedra (while still respecting the Tribunal) and deriving their identity from slavery and their fighting against the Argonians.Hlaalu has no other identity besides being the house of slimy merchants.
>>738779303They love multiculturalism and that's heckin' wholesome.
>>738779303Hlaalu are very adaptable. Their "grand conspiracy" lore is cool.
>>738779351But even that is two faced as they only suck up to the Imperials while half of them are controlled by the Camonna Tong. And they have some of the biggest slave plantations too. >>738779671I guess so, but this too falls under slimy opportunist. Maybe I’m just being unrealistic.
>>738779303hate the Hlaalu as any man worth their saltrice, but, you've got to admire being able to quickly adapt to market changes, political musical chairs, and maybe even the fact that they seem to actually care about making Morrowind not just a kwama egg harvesting shithole, but to actually be a trading power, until they just couldn't keep power, got kicked and replaced by that other House I can't recall now, the other Houses really are just fucking shit at opening, maintaining, or improving any trade routes, look at how 1000 fucking Drakes are a church fixing donation to the fucking Imperial Cult, Redoran are stingy tightpurses that will only get worker strikes every month with their terrible business acumen, and the Telvanni are too busy in their own daughterwife cloning facilities or murdering each other to prove theyre hot shit.
>>738779303Their seat of power is in Balmora and Balmora is Bestmora
The Hlaalu dying off after the Red Year was one of the dumbest things future ES games. The absolute dumbest was Morrowind just getting rid of slavery because ???
>>738780195trade routes collapsing and their Imperial benefactors leaving made them lose everything, it makes perfecr sense.
>>738780195Ted Peterson implied that he was told to get write slavery out of the setting by Bethesda, presumably (by me not him) because it's scary for the modern audiences they were chasing in Oblivion onwardsDoesn't excuse the way he went about doing it tho, writing the Great Houses as if they were generic feudal european houses that solve shit through dynastic marriages and pathetic puppet king Helseth as some Hlaalu big boss who singlehandedly convinced the Dres to give up the thing their culture and economy revolves around by marrying the beautiful Dres princess of Bodrum (a Redoran city)
>>738780374>Doesn't excuse the way he went about doing it tho, writing the Great Houses as if they were generic feudal european houses that solve shit through dynastic marriagesTo be fair is this system less realistic than political factions that form around muh warriors or muh magic?
>>738780435It's not about realism you retard it's about the fact they're just not like that
>>738780318That implies that they had no other plans (especially when fucking EVERYONE was anticipating the Empire to collapse soon it wasn't some weird conspiracy theory) and that they did nothing of value with the obscene amounts of wealth they had built up and they did nothing with all the political power they hadTo believe that the Hlaalu would die like chumps as they do in Skyrim requires believing that they're completely fucking stupid and inept>>738780374>presumably (by me not him) because it's scary for the modern audiences they were chasing in Oblivion onwardsThis I absolutely believe and fully see as the cause, but it's still dumb as fuck. Honestly if any house should've been on the chopping block, Dres would've made more sense. Not that I like it, but killing off the one super evil house that no one got to see instead of one of the ones players might care about seems more logical, and they could tie that into the removal of slavey. Massive slave revolt in Dres lands, wipes out the Great House, inspires slave revolts elsewhere, takes ages to clean up, abolitionist elements in the Hlaalu have enough political capital to remove slavery. It's not perfect but I think that'd be far more passable than what we got.
>>738780530this is the House that elevated a drunken Nord, some degenerate Imperial, Canonna Tong lowlives, and had Caracalla and Geta tier fraticidal retards in their top brass, they ARE fucking tunnel vision'd into acquiring more gold, fucking over others, and then their turn to be fucked finally came and they had no one on their side when the chips were down.
>>738780435his point is that peterson didn't bother researching what the dunmer are actually supposed to be like.
>>738780780High Rock Wal-Mart at night is WILD
>>738780501>>738780734I should have clarified that my post was about Morrowind’s political system as a whole and not meant as a justification for the sloppy way slavery was written out of the franchise.

>>738780041If you want to cope extremely hard you can say they're the house that most adheres to Velothi ideals because they eschew tradition so easily.
>>738791607There is something to be said about House Hlaalu seemingly being the only House still around in C0DA
>>738762139The suplhur willows look fine finished as they are. There's one dev who is just adamant that Sundered Scar looks absolutely perfect without them (it doesn't, it looks barren and boring) and wants the asset in some other region that won't be made for a decade.

Be friends with Argonians
ill have to replay morrowind with the get rid of cliffracers mod. I never beat the game because cliffracers annoyed me so fucking bad I quit. Also I fucked up my character build. I wanted to do alchemy but I didnt make it one of my primary skills so I had to grind a fuckload of alchemy points and got bored.
>>738798223Alchemy is the boringest skill because using it makes you insanely overpowered.
>TRarent the imga not actually supposed to be that civilized looking and are just aping fancier customs of man and mer
>>738798437whats the most fun build then
>>738798637but that would be racist
>>738756120Your pic reminds me of something...>Some Imga see the Altmeri as their superiors and as a portrait of an ideal, civilized society. Imga go to desperate measures to emulate the Altmeri: they wear capes, practice with the dueling sword, and attempt to speak with perfect enunciation and courtly manners despite their gravelly, baritone voices
>>738798637>Great Apes go to desperate measures to emulate the High Elves>The Imga feel that humans are beneath them as lesser beastfolk, That'd require PTR to have decided on Altmer lore/assets
>>738798637The vibe that I get from PTR's Imga is that they have been aping other cultures for so long that they've basically integrated into society
>>738800220>that imageThis feels hilariously racist somehow.
>>738800220>>738800046Also PTR Imga don't seem to like the Altmer much anymore, evidenced by their racial ability and some voice lines >>738722684 referencing Marukhatism https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Tamriel_Data:Imga
>>738800989https://youtu.be/Dc3kiPe7Tnk?t=74>the mystery is that there is no mystery... cruel truth of the worldthis shit is driving me up the wall, its directly ripped from blood meridianalso picrel
>>738798437It's the coolest skill for that reason
>>738800772not really
>>738800772There is nothing racist about the employee of the month gallery for the Cyrodiil City Department of Motor Vehicles, get your mind out of the gutter
It's funny how the Sutch Fighters Guild occupies a position of honor atop the city's spire, white the Mages are relegated to a (quite comfy) hole in the wall
>>738789549Such a cringe character.
>>738807652WhyI liked him
>>738809905He's fat.
>>738801597I don't mind references if they're tasteful and that line fits the doomer ape-man mindset
>>738809939okay, fair enoughI liked how he is very religious, extraordinarily rich and not a bad guy. Combination of all these traits is pretty much unheard of in modern media.
>>738799672 It’s honestly one of the funniest bits of lore in TES.>massive 8ft jungle gorilla >puts on silk cape >tips little dueling sword >“m’aldmeri” in a voice that sounds like gravel in a wine barrelI love that it’s played completely straight too. Like they’re not parodying the Altmer, they genuinely think they’re achieving peak civilization by copying the snootiest race on the continent. It loops back around from goofy to kind of tragic.Also the mental image of an Imga painstakingly practicing Altmeri vowel elongation for hours a day is peak C0DA-tier nonsense and I want more of it.
>>738766785If Dagoth Ur is an extension of the Heart, and therefore Lorkhan, why would it want to destroy reality if Lorkhan was the one who made it in the first place?
>>738718942>excessively heavy accenting means medieval setting!easy worse
>>738801597Lmao that's my screenshot from last summer when I tried to figure out what the fuck it saidThe voice line is fine imo but the book could be implemented a bit better, easter eggs should be obscure and not something an NPC just hands you randomly in the middle of a faction questline
>>738811219Because he's insane.
>>738811172It gets better >More extreme Imga shave their bodies and powder their skin white to seem more like the Altmeri. The Imga feel that Men are beneath them as lesser beastfolk and pretend to find their smell exceedingly offensive: when Men are around, Imga hold perfumed corners of their capes to their noses.
>>738718942Any rehost? Catbox seems unreachable for some reason, maybe it's just me
>>738779303>Hlaalu has no other identity besides being the house of slimy merchants.this is literally USA and they are the most powerful nation in real life. you act as if the capitalists arent the most powerful
>>738813727deep bro
>>738814482im just saying that if you wanna larp as a hedonistic merchant egoist who cares about nothing other than profit, like the US, then hlaalu is the house for you. its pretty cool imo. its not unrealistic by any means and the US has plenty of identity, i'd say.
>>738720246Nigga got the Jewhelit
>>738724634>High Rockdude weed lmao
>>738814961And exclusion zones. Don't forget those exclusion zones!
>>738815149Fucking love magical exclusion zones man, not even being sarcastic
>https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/58658Have genuinely been glued to Morrowind since I downloaded this.
Is there a distant land placeholder for all of Tamriel for the sake of immersion?
>>738779303>Hlaalu has no other identity besides being the house of slimy merchants.It cuts both ways though. If all they care about is money then they're also willing to tolerate what other houses won't. That matters quite a lot if you're a khajiit for example. It also means they're the most willing to modernize, they're not pinned down by inefficient traditions. If you want to look at it from a dunmer nationalist perspective, without the hlaalu, what leverage would morrowind abroad? Sure they work with the Imperials but they hold power in return, power which is ultimately in the hands of dunmer families from morrowind. The alternative would be imperials coming in to run everything directly, and what's better, the slimy merchant you know or the slimy merchant you don't?Let's say you want to reform morrowind to make it great and strong again, how would you go about doing that? You'd have to modernize, and fund that modernization. Which houses would be able to affect that change? Only Hlaalu. Which houses could still function if the plantation systems were broken up and local fiefs torn down in favor of central authority? All of them go broke or cease to exist except Hlaalu. Ironically the house that hires housecats is the house most able and ready to turn the dark elf nation into a sovereign state.Basically if you want Morrowind to not be a shithole, the Hlaalu are the only available way. They are for the modern dark elf, which is a big tent that doesn't just include merchants and empire lovers.
>>738816460All of that is only problem because morrowind's gods are schizos
>>738813727>>738816460I guess you’re right that the flip side of greasy opportunistic merchants is that they are the future of Morrowind so to speak. I guess that’s pretty “redeeming” considering the Hlaalu will also backstab the Empire the second they can.
>>738815987We need someone to get a working vanilla to OpenMW save converter
>>738816460>Let's say you want to reform morrowindFuck off outlander.

Why did he do it?
>>738821782When a nigga needs to ball, a nigga needs to ball.
>>738815149Don't do me like that. I can't get hype for fantasy stalker with knights.... Is it happening?
>>738820475why is it called blacklight
>>738823703Because city names from Arena are a bunch of pseudo random combinations of two words and black light sounds generically drow-like
>>738823791Can't wait for Reich Parkeep

>>738825653Aleister Crowley and Akhenaten are amazing inspirations for Reman, goddamn
>>738823703Dude the argument about the name of Blacklight has been going on for years and people have debated this point for so longIn the end though the reason Blacklight seems to be currently the one gone with is because Blacklight is just a cool name
Can shotn Markarth side still release this year?
>>738827131Poison Song is optimistically going to be an August release. I don't see them squeezing Markarth Side in time for a Christmas release. Maybe next year.
>>738825653https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Tamriel_Data:Reman,_Son_of_Remanhe fucked that cow, didn't he?
>>738827131The team is suggesting on releasing Karthwasten overhauls on the Poison Song update, for this year, no idea.
>>738825653man the TR team is so fucking good man. they have the perfect minds for TES and it just makes me so frustrated that bethesda does not embody a similar mindset and approach to their own franchise
>>738827182why the fuck is the skyrim project so slow?
>>738827217It would be harder to list the things Reman didn't fuck. Dude was built different
>>738789549I like that he just has a permanent dreamworks eyebrow for no reasonKinda makes me wish these projects had a few more unique characters, faces are the one asset type that people seem actually interested in making tons of
>>738794759Every thread
yeah but what has the Third Empire ever done for us?
>>738830232Who would pay for roads without the empire?
>>738822558Maybe in 20 years if Bethesda/Microsoft doesn't send a cease and desist before then
>>738798637That's second era valenwood imga, cyrodiil imga would descend from the alessian order and instead be aping imperialsOr at least that's the lore that needs to be invented, because imga were just a small joke stolen from runequest in PGE1(that oblivion then went back to treating as just random uncivilized monkey people who live in trees), and Marukh was an entirely separate thing not associated with the imga at all at any point outside of obscure Temple Zero shit that Kirkbride would sometimes reference in forum posts later in the 2000's
>>738829121I wish that lazy fuck would finish/release the Shonni-etta
>>738821782God I wish some of them were still around, pale babylonian/assyrian steam tech elves are so much fucking cooler than the altmer or bosmer
>>738820475The narsis-ism is taking full effect already I see. Not that I'm complaining, that looks way easier to navigate.

>Morrowind bases a lot of assets on actual pictures>Modders do the same, but to make higher quality textures using modern pictures as reference>Khajiit faces that are very obviously just someone's house cat because those are the only available reference>Redguard females that look like they know what an iphone is because those are the only available referenceIt's like that problem AI models have where they can't generate a blonde woman that doesn't have dark roots and perfect features because the the dataset was poisoned by instagram
>>738722219Is that my nigga spottemgottem?
Are chuds here still seething over ESO improving the lore
>>738833790What do you even think you mean by this
>>738756697Morrowind is literally the worst place to live on the planet in the lore. There's a reason the empire doesn't give a shit about what happens there
>>738798637>>738800220>>738831190>>738800046If I remember the general idea correctly, the TR idea is meant to be following the "Moneky see monkey do" joke some, but a bit of a different direction. They try following the "winning culture" for traits to incorporate into their own. Right now the Empire is the dominant culture, so...

Is there such thing as fun dunmer stronghold dungeon? I am completely convinced it's impossible to make good area using that boring as fuck tileset.
>>738840089Too high contrast, I don't remember anything in the OG game being that high contrast.
>>738840183The colors also make them seem like they were made for an entirely different biome, the old ones were actually various shades of grey
The new races should be playable desu
>>738840993Isn't that just the matter of installing a single mod?
>>738815987>Added miss feedback animations by Dubiousnpc and myself. Now when you miss an attack (even with glancing blows enabled) NPCs will do a little dodge move for visual feedback. Oh fuck, I didn't know they also added this to this mod! Can't wait for my playthrough when the PS is released.
>>738840993there's a mod for that
>>738790816She doesn't need fixing.She is exactly what she's supposed to be.A whore to kill.
>>738845084Yeah but does it feel real or just hacky? Like playing a skeleton?
>>738846483I haven't used it but all the races should have their own passives and skills and whatever, it's only some of the big ones like giants that are obviously broken and shouldn't be played
