>>340978189
>Valenwood
>not superior Hammerfell
>>340978640
daggerfall already did hammerfell
>>340978189
>What are your expectations for the 6th installment of TES?
that it will be at best half as good as Skyrim. Just like how oblivion was half as good as morrowind and so on.
>When do you think the game will be released?
3 years from now when they announce it 2 years from now.
>>340978794
So?
12 months
Bethesda know their fanbase will slurp up their dumps, so they'll only release their main franchises (Fallout/TES) at E3.
>>340978794
You're retarded
N-next E3 efinitely
Told you fags it was too early for a TES reveal.
>>340978794
You know that they're targetting younger, mordern gamers.
Anything not covered by TES4 & 5 is an option for them, hell even a Morrowind-based game would not surprise me.
As long as its not fucking Skyrim 2.
it wont be announced until next year and it will be made for vr gimmicks
Gotta get some money from skyrim 2 first.
>>340978189
It will be meh with a bad story on Gamebryo
I hope they don't add that fucking FO4 dialogue method
pls be Elsweyr or Black Marsh
>Not Blackmarsh.
I didn't watch any meme3 footage, was Valenwood announced at their show or is this just speculation?
>>340979575
nope
>>340978189
>When do you think the game will be released?
Why did so many people in the stream expect an announcement? Do they think TES is Assassin's Creed or COD, that it can be released once a year?
Bethesda had set up a cycle of development. They only really started working on Fallout4 when the last of the Skyrim DLC was completed. And since they are still working on Fallut4, there will be no real work to show for TES6. It is the same team, they rather do one major project at a time, and move on when it is done.
>>340979575
Nope.
Is TESO even any good or is it just a waste of time?
You wouldn't keep making content for something that nobody's playing
>>340979575
Lower than speculation, just hopes+dreamsfrom faggots, I want Redguard.
>>340978640
>>340979550
>he hasn't seen the Nuka Cola leak from 2014
Next TES is in Valenwood and called Project Greenheart :^)
Well, maybe the VGA's guys
Why did you guys expect a new TES game?
It's only been 6 months since Fallout 4.
Bethesda usually takes 3-4 years between major releases.
F
>>340979961
HOW
>>340979853
It's legitimately awful.
The only people who play it are clinically-depressed addicts who are just trying to fill the void left by GW2 and modern WoW.
>>340980030
artificial delay
>>340979853
I like it.
I have a massive boner for everything TES and would play Fallout 4 without guns if (when) that's what TES VI turns out to be but I like it.
>>340980030
I don't think anyone expected it, it was just the only thing that could have saved that miserable conference
They shouldn't have wasted their time making Fallout 4
>>340980030
but its not the same teams working on fallout and tes
>>340980339
After the success of FO4 you can bet your ass it is now.
N-next E3? AM I RITE?
BETHESDA HAS TO RELEASE TES6 AT SOME POINT
>>340979853
People do play it, it has decent population.
The game itself is not bad but I can't stomach a game that depicts Wild hunt as red glowing bosmer and where everything related to mythopoetic powers of Amulet of Kings as well as it's location at the time and how it's going to get back to sancre tor is fucked up.
If you are into MMO's, play it.
Welp back to lover lab skyrim mods....I guess.......
>>340980339
it actually is
>>340980547
Dude, they will not release fucking TES until Fallout 4 is fully milked, are you retarded?
Of course they are developing it, I have Skyrim concept arts dated with 2007.
If they would release or even announce TES VI now it would draw attention from Fallout 4 and would cannibalize them, especially since it's aiming for the same target audience.
Do not expect new TES until all DLC's are out.
>>340980320
If you liked TES then you would hate TES:O
>>340980547
It's not going to happen.
They're just going to re-fucking-release skyrim and call it a day.
play Enderal pleb
What would the actual symbol for a valenwood themed game be? Because having the Skyrim one simply coated in foliage makes no sense.
>>340980960
Not necessarily, depends on what kind of a TES crowd he is from.
I personally hate it but a lot of faggots on TIL that I respect like it for some fucking reason.
You guys are ridiculous.
It's going to be Skyrim 2: Winds of Winter.
It'll take place in a skyrim that's been ruined by dragons and the civil war.
You play as a draugr named Nate or his wife Nora who were both frozen in time and woke up in an unfamiliar time. You have to look for your son who was kidnapped by the dovakhiin
Are there any games with decent looking forests?
>>340981365
>>340981447
>>340981447
>You have to look for your son who was kidnapped by the dovakhiin
>Not my wifes son
It's 20 fucking 16 Anon.
Need a mod where I can slaughter homosexuals in a club
>tfw The Elder Scrolls: Elsweyr will never happen
There's only one tower left and it's somewhere in Elsweyr.
>>340981365
Depends. Valenwood has several symbologies.
>Wild like deer head with antlers
>Camoran symbology though we have never seen it
>Y'ffre related shit though again we have never seen it
>Generic tree shit
Depends on what the story will be about
also
>Skyrim one
No nigger, that's Empire symbol and it has a broken wing representing Civil War.
Skyrim was never that much into Dragons until Dragon Cult, they are mostly Shor worshipers and Dragon symbology does not have much to do with them, hell even Cyrodiils never liked Dragons that much until Alessia/Marukhati happened and then Akaviri brought their Dragon fapping.
>>340979809
Look at this guy, being all reasonable and shit. Where do you think you are?
>>340981970
no theres not only one tower left
>>340978189
>Elsweyer
>Valenwood
>Summerset Isles
The Elder Scrolls VI: Dominion
>>340981365
Most likely Camoran Dynasty symbology.
Many forget that Valenwoodian Empire was the first one to actually hold active conquests and expansions. While Aldmeri and other Mer were fucking around with magic, contemplating life and being buttmad, Valenwood was doing actually important shit.
Camoran Dynasty and it's Empire WAS what started the first era, Zero Year of first Era is the founding of Valenwood Empire.

>>340981365
>>340982319
Better yet, Valenwoodian Empire lasted for a whole Era and more until Thrasian plague fucked everyone over AND ONLY THEN Did the "Second Empire" with Reman bullshit conquer them.
>>340978189
Elseweyr. That way they can reuse all the fallout assets, make the entire country a wasteland, and retcon the jungles saying the deserts have been expanding aggressively because of whatever great ebul is lurking in the dunes.
Spoiler alertIt's the fucking elves again
>>340982543
Duh. If course it's elves. Specifically the Thalmor. Have you not been paying attention in the past five games?
>>340982543
>Cause I've got barbs, that jingle jangle jingle, as I go humping merrily along.
Have you heard of the High Elves?
>>340981841
Oh that's weird my post got cut off.
Through a series of events you learn that your wife cheated on you and that your son was actually Sanguine's illegitimate bastard but you still have to love him anyways. There's no option to kill him of course, that's not very progressive.
If you play as a female then you have to look for your son but also go around fucking redguard studs or orc alpha womyn.
>>340982468
Here are my actual realistic expectations based on FO 4 and Skyrim, memes aside.
>Races will remain obviously
>Story will most likely be in Hammerfell to stay relatively neutral because it will be extremely hard to play any non-mer in a Dominion setting.
>You might be HoonDing and Sword Singing Shehai Shen She Ru will be the new gimmick instead of Thu'um
>Dialogue wheel will be a thing
>So will the armor system from Fallout 4, so expect multiple armor pieces and some armors which are like full set and you just equip it.
>Enchanting and weapon creation will be something like modular system in Fallout 4 which mbgud.
>Combat will most likely stay shit but I have some hopes that they will take at least SOMETHING from Dark Messiah and Dishonored.
>Maybe some gimmick like ships.
>Also expect building stuff, not to the same degree as Fallout 4 but maybe lots where you can make mansions.
>Another "updated" engine.
>Lore and Quest design might get better since Kuhlmann is back on TES in full force now and Dragonborn DLC was better than Skyrim and I actually enjoyed it, again probably thanks to him.
I keep my expectations low but I will get hyped out once it gets announced because I am a bitchboi like that.
>>340982468
Holy shit! You just spoil "The Elder Console: Fucking Casual 24fps"
>>340982903
Nocturnal is playing the long con. Seems to be distant and completely uninterested in Tamriel, but is actually getting people to destroy the Towers so the world will vanish into nothingness.
>>340982903
Thalmor have not been an active threat since fucking Second Era, there is literally not a single hint about them doing shit till Skyrim because they legit could not, Empire was strong and not until Oblivion Crisis where everything got fucked over did the Thalmor get a chance (Together with Camoran backing) to take over.
Once they took over though it was EZ, they have some of the strongest wizards out there, and by strongest I mean
>can make moons disappear
levels of strong.
>>340979961
>>340983478
That's not what would happen though.
A) Oblivion realms can not exist without Mundus, before Lorkhan created plans for Mundus there was no anchoring point in all of Aurbis. Mundus has to exist so that the realms of Oblivion can exist as spheres tied to it.
B) If Mundus is unmade everything returns to Aetherius, not fucking nothingness, it's quite the opposite with infinite energies and all...well technically in original soup it was both, Creatia of Aetherius with it's infinite energies representing Anu/Anui-El and Oblivion with it's Azure plasm representing Padomay/Sithis, those are primary matters and binary code of existence basically.

if you really really like tes and want a generic fantasy rpg that's essentially a very watered down version of a single player game with 100% optional co-op elements and an unplayable pvp mode then it's ok
the base game is 90% garbage and the main story is shit
imperial city dlc is complete shit - do not buy
wrothgar dlc is actually decent and what the base game should have been like
thieves guild dlc is also an improvement on the base game but too much boring corridor story quest bullshit
dark brotherhood is kinda the same shit as thieves guild

>>340980547
Why in the fuck would you want a TES 6?
bethesda has made it abundantly clear that every new iteration of TES gets massively worse compared to it's previous counter part.
Oblivion looks nicer than Morrowind but plays worse and has a worse story.
Same goes for Oblivion to Skyrim and Skyrim to the fucking MMO.
It won't be any different.
that same fucking business practice has leaked onto their fucking Quake and Fallout games.
TES is fucking Dead until Zenimax and bethesda no longer hold the rights to it.
People who think they're ready to show off TES VI right after the release of FO4 are morons.
The main team is a one game studio, always has been. They're just now starting prototypes/early alphas at this point.
>>340981970
tower?
>>340985743
Skyrim actually improved on Oblivion. I resented the attributes. I applaud them for removing them. Although I hope that they reiplement a substitute for Oblivion attributes, smth that actually fits into a fucking action RPG.
>>340978794
it did HIGH ROCK, DUMBASS
>>340986441

Less armor. Less weapon types. Still uses gamebryo. Most dungeons are copy and pasted. Factions you can join are dumbed down even more so than fucking oblivion. Magic fucking ruined. Alchemy turned into a fucking math problem instead of interesting results. The entire fucking leveling system. teh combat is just a FPS with Swords and bows.
No. It is in no way better. Graphically I actually think it looks worse than oblivion.
>>340985743
>TES is fucking Dead until Zenimax and bethesda no longer hold the rights to it.
How about no.
No one will ever be able to make proper TES other than Daggerfall/Redguard/Morrowind crew, which might not be current Bethesda but it's hell as fuck not any other dev team.
Unless they get their writers to smoke opiates and spend a year talking to Kuhlmann and Kirkbride I will not trust anyone with TES.
>>340986986
>Less weapon types
Wut?
More weapon types
> Most dungeons are copy and pasted.
Less so than Oblivion, much less so. Compare the fucking maps you mong, Oblivion was literally the start of modular dungeon design.
> Factions you can join are dumbed down even more so than fucking oblivion
That's true
>Magic fucking ruined.
It was shit in Oblivion and Skyrim added new ways to cast magic. All they had to do was make magic power scale with your level so that it doesn't become weak which mods do.
> Alchemy turned into a fucking math problem instead of interesting results
Alchemy is objectively better and so is enchanting.
>Leveling system
Oh boi, says the guy who is defending Oblivion, the definition of a literally broken leveling system with broken world scaling. At least Skyrim improved the level scaling and created lists of items and caps for mob levels.
>teh combat is just a FPS with Swords and bows.
Which Oblivion is not?
>No. It is in no way better. Graphically I actually think it looks worse than oblivion.
Memepost, it's superior to Oblivion in every single way other than faction quest design.
>>340986986
>Magic fucking ruined
I prefered it in skyrim, where things were a bit more dynamic
for example, in oblivion, you had
>fire spray
>fire ball
while in skyrim you had
>fire spray
>fire ball
>fire rune
>fire explosion
>fire shield
etc
Also, the spell dual-wielding was better than just pressing 'C' over and over
>The entire fucking leveling system
as compared to oblivion?
>combat is just a FPS with Swords and bows
as compared to oblivion?
>Most dungeons are copy and pasted
again, compared to oblivion? they were significantly more memorable and unique than oblivion
>>340986668
Wasn't CHIM the players ability to make decisions? I've only learned skyrim lore from /v/ besides Google is there an official wiki that lists ditched stories and shit the developers said was Canon but never published?
>>340988316
CHIM is explained differently by like everybody, but i always thought of your ability to create character, saveload, console, and mod the game basically proved that you as the player have achieved CHIM
the real explanation about CHIM is, you realize the world is a dream or something but the realization doesn't destroy you from existence and you get the ability to affect the dream at will,,, or something like that
>>340986441
Ignore whatever anyone posts about "towers".
Structure of TES universe is Wheel and Tower, which is Wheel sideways. This represents that creation (wheel) has one unified identity (tower, the "I") and how everything is part of the same consciousness.
Towers are any metaphysical constructs created to manipulate reality through deep understanding of how Aurbis works and they have multiple functions, for example Numidium was purely built to be a device for Apotheothis while White Gold Tower was created to control exist world.
which brings me to...
>>340988316
>>340988759
CHIM is simple and player does not have it, only two people (well technically 4 since one of them is 3 people).
World is a unified mind in a dreamlike state multiple levels below the original reality so to say, something like inception but it's more mystical than just
>LE IT'S ALL A DREAM
Think Hindu and gnosticism.
Mundus exists for sole purpose of enforcing mortality through which one can realize truth.
CHIM is realizing that you do not actually exist as an individual and that everything is but an illusion and a facet of a same being...this realization when it is fully achieved usually erases you from existence but few individuals are so egotistical and self loving that their enforce their I, their personal Tower over existence and say
>I am not part of everything, EVERYTHING IS PART OF ME!
And they basically become Budha.
>>340986441
constructs created to anchor and manipulate reality
white gold and imperial city is one of them
pic related
>>340986986
>Less armor
Oblivion had 12 armors while Skyrimhad 22
>Less weapon types
Skyrim had exactly similar amount of weapon types.
>uses gamebryo
when will this meme end
>Most dungeons are copy and pasted
Are you saying that Oblivion dungeons weren't just as copy pasted.
>Magic ruined
Skyrim had better agic than Oblivion
>Alchemy turned into a fucking math problem instead of interesting results
Alchemy is literally copy pasted from Oblivion.
>leveling system is shit
It was shit but much better than Oblivion's and Morrowind's.
>teh combat is just a FPS with Swords and bows
And Morrowind's and Oblivion's wasn't. Almost nothing has changed about the combat from Oblivion to Skyrim.
>>340989513
and here is the structure of reality from Ogham infinium
as you can see imperial city is literally built to be mirror of existence
white gold tower is where nirn is, mages guild is where sun/magnus is etc.
>>340988267
>where things were a bit more dynamic
Only allowing the combination of the same spell to produce a 1.2x damage effect for twice teh mana cost is not dynamic. It's fucking stupid.

You had anything you fucking wanted because you can make whatever the fuck you wanted if you were smart enough.
>while in skyrim you had
The stock spells they fucking gave you.
>as compared to oblivion?
Yes you had full control over your character and didn't get fucking shafted scaling enemies because you wanted to do a little bit of alchemy. before going to fucking sleep. Your character wasn't entirely fucking governed by a fucking Railroading skill tree.
as for the combat. Everything from fighting with weapons to fucking using spells was fucking better period.
And dugeons. Fuck man. Oblivion dungeons were actual mazes. had several floors to them. didn't require you to fucking load into a different map every few seconds most of the time wasn't a straight god damn line that loops in on itself.
Skyrim was fucking trash.
i expect an elder scrolls game where i singlehandedly genocide the aldmeri dominion or help them destroy mundus and achieve godhood or do both and take godhood for my own
>>340989320
im pretty sure the player definitely has CHIM, all of the abilities match up, talos changed a swath of the land at will (modding) and everything always went well for him inexplicably (saveload) , maybe they don't CANONICALLY have CHIM in the story, but all of your characters across all TES games and yourself as an entity combined really looks like a representation of CHIM to me
>>340978189
Like Skyrim
But without gameplay.
>>340989513
>>340989674
GOD THIS SHIT IS SO COOL
also it creeps me out at the same time because it reminds me of fullmetal alchemist, like someone's going to transmute the entire fucking city into a philosopher's stone and kill everyone

crash course of common lorefag interpretations of TES universe
Anu and Padomay are brothers, they like Nir, Nir likes Anu, Padomay gets buttmad killed Nir, Anu kills Padomay and goes into coma from shock and need to suicide, his mind and soul get divided and fucked and a new universe which is representation of his broken psyche gets born inside of him
Anui-El is avatar of himself, Sithis is memory of Padomay, Akatosh and Lorkhan were one unified being of space and time, other Et'Ada (original spirits, Aedra and Daedra) get born because spacetime exists now
Sithis infects the unified original being and identity of Lorkhan slowly appears, he gets memories of Nir from Anu and Padomay and realizes that universe is a dream, tower wheel etc. can't achieve freedom feels trapped
decides to trick Et'Ada into creating a plane of existence where it's possible to actually escape the dream through mortality somehow
together with magnus makes Mundus, those who join him are Aedra those who fuck off to maky copy cat realms that are solo become Daedra
Lorkhan tricks Aedra, drains them, Magnus and his children run away and create holes in reality which are suns and stars, magic flows through them out of Aetherius
Akatosh kills Lorkhan and rips out his heart for ever sepperating their identities
Adamanta and heart of Lorkhan together trap Akatosh into a linear timeline and now mortal beings can exist
everyone is fucked for ever and everything will get only progressively worse from this point on
the end
>>340989881

and they were all a combination of generic base effects in one of two delivery methods

>>340989912
>im pretty sure the player definitely has CHIM
the guy that created CHIM and the other guy that helped him create CHIM literally said that player does not have CHIM and only VIvec/ Talos ever had it
but sure why trust Kuhlmann or Kirkbride
really though, you can interpret it any way you want, if you think that player has CHIM fine, but consider the following, you don't have the most important aspect of CHIM, feeling all of existence being part of yourself and in reverse
CHIMsters are one with existence as a whole
>>340990129
There is more, Pelinal Whitestrake very well could have been a spirit terminator sent from future
>>340989912
your character doesnt have CHIM. but you the player are the godhead
>finally get Skyrim mods on next gen console and updated graphics
I'm happy, screw you guys.
>>340991031
if that's true, does that mean we have some kind of bootleg knockoff CHIMlike ability that isn't actually CHIM?
>>340990129TES lore is a long, twisted, unclear rabbit hole, but it's a lot of fun to dig in it. There is a literal fuckton of world building in the games. Unfortunately 90% of it is all in books that tell stories way cooler then any TES game can hope to capture.
>>340990736
No, just fade effects, there are more towers than that.
Towers go as follow...
Adamantine - High Rock
Walking Brass - Between timelines now and several versions of it is destroyed, this is Numidium/Akulakhan
Snow Throat - Skyrim
Green Sap - Valenwood, most likely Falnesti
Orchicalcum - Orsinium, supposedly broken
Crystal Like Law - Destroy by Daedra durring Oblivion crisis, SummerSet Isles
White Gold - Imperial City, it's stone the Amulet of Kings is gone so the tower is most likely fucked too...that being said
Statue of Akatosh in Imperial City - It might be a new tower since it's the new covenant that holds the veil now
Talos - Thalmor are doing their best to kill this strongest tower
That's all that we know of, there might be more out there
Any construct living or dead that holds reality is a tower basically
I expect it to be shit and made with gamebryo so it's mostly broken.
>>340978189
All melee skills are now combined into two trees Offensive and Defensive.
All magic skills are going to be joined into a single "CHIM" tree. Also Chim is going to be retconned to just be magic talent.
Stealth will contain all none combat skills, including Speechcraft. There will be a point to unlock "sarcasm", bringing the total choices of dialogue to three, which is kinda of an upgrade over skyrim's two.
Armor will now be a single set to better differentiate TES from Fallout.
Companions with romance quests will be introduced. They'll be three stage with one personal quest each.
The map will be twice as large as Skyrim's but have only two dungeon variations. One of these will be caves, a fan favorite.
Modding limitations for consoles will be put in place. We can't have those guys getting screwed again by the elitist pc community.
screencap this. Some of it is right. I work at bethesda, and I'm kinda drunk.
>>340991661

>>340991365
>if that's true, does that mean we have some kind of bootleg knockoff CHIMlike ability that isn't actually CHIM?
It might be, or it might be that modding and gameplay are just that, again that's up to you anon.
But yes there are things close to CHIM, the six walking ways, for example there is the Psijic endeavor which is like what edging is to cumming. It's being on the edge of CHIMing out but somehow maintaining your mind from the full realization which Psijic have and it apparently helps in Dawn Magic which demonstrably in Skyrim can stop time and control reality for indefinate amounts of time...and that was like one Psijic monk.
Generally speaking there are so many organizations out there who's power levels are so high that we never meet. I was pretty hype when they showed Quaranir.
>>340991495
Lel
>>340990129
TES has a lot of practical lore if you are into that, as in comparing maps and images or ingame quotes and texts and going
>Oh shit so that's what this is
For example do you know how people know FOR SURE that Vivec killed Nerevar Indoril? Because Sermons of Vivec contain this secret messege that can be built with Sermon 29
>He was not born a god. His destiny did not lead him to this crime. He chose this path of his own free will. He stole the godhood and murdered the Hortator. Vivec wrote this.
Which also proves that Vivec sort of felt guilt for fucking over Nerevar.
>no announcement
>no teaser
>nothing
Does this mean Elder Scrolls VI is still in the conceptualization phase?
I wish the game covers the entire Dominion. I want to see Khajiit sugar junkies begging for cake in the streets, and moon phase related quests, skills, etc
Bethesda will ruin the games by going completely off the rails BECAUSE IT'LL BE NEAT and ruin everything.
The Elder Scroll: Akavir
Fallout: China
>>340992531
>conceptualization phase?
No it's in dev phase already.
It won't be revealed until Fallout 4 and all DLC's of it are fully finished though, that would be cannibalization otherwise because both games target same audience.
Same as they would not announce Fallout 4 even though they probably could when Dragonborn DLC came out.
The way they do it usually

almost impossible to play with anyone but Khajiit, Altmer or Bosmer.
Is nerevarine, champion of cyrodiil or the last dragonborn important in the lore?
>>340993082
>almost impossible to play with anyone but Khajiit, Altmer or Bosmer.
Why? You will start as a prisoner like always.
>>340993327
Nerevarine, immensely so
Champion of Cyrodiil, not so much. He's just Sheogorath now
Dragonborn, kinda. Probably will become way more important in later games due to self-fellating
>>340993327
Uh considering they got their own games, yes
>>340993580
Last Dragonborn will probably become the new emperor or something
>>340993327
Anything involving dark elves means they are indispensable to the lore. They are the pet race of MK
>>340993580
Isn't TLD aspect of both Akatosh and Lorkhan?
>>340978189
Hate Elf.
>>340993545
Because SummerSet Isles EVEN DURING the days of Empire did not allow more than several travelers at a time and those travelers had to be diplomats. Altmer are hardcore into eugenics and race preservation.
Now that Dominion is a thing any Men race representative in Dominion is open for instant kill.
I think you are imagining the dominion wrong.
>SummerSet
Super advanced with giant crystaline towers and magical rides everywhere, people are hyped for them finally getting back to the "roots" of Aldmeri culture which is being a faggot that goes around screaming "I AM SUPERIOR" and genociding men races. Almost no one from any other race, few royal Bosmer allowed.
>Valenwood
Strict Thalmor regulations further enforced by Camoran dynasty, couple of men races here and there but under super hard stress and constant fear of being fucked...coupled with the fact that no one wants to live in Valenwood other than Bosmer because it's dangerous as fuck and basically a giant hostile living forest do not expect more than a 100 people from different races there.
>Elsweyr
The only place where you might find some humans here and there but still under hard stress, not from the Khajiit themselves but from Thalmor patrols and all that.
>>340981447
>>340983219
Fuck off with your GoT ripoff
>>340993327
Nerevarine is extremely important
So is Champion of Cyrodiil, there is a book describing how revered he is in Cyrodiil now and how he and Martin are basically the sole heroes of this whole event.
>Dragonborn
We don't know yet but by the very virtue of being the most chosen one thing you can be in TES, he is important. The only way he can be more chosen if it's confirmed that he is a Shezzarine also.
>>340993949
I guess so, but the shit he did wasn't really all that important. I mean yeah, stopping dragons but if they ran rampant then the world would just be a little scarier. Alduin would have got full after he only ate about a third of the world. Look at the Champion. His ass stopped the world from becoming literally hell. Nervarine stopped.. well.. the world from becoming literally hell.
>>340994337
>by the very virtue of being the most chosen one thing you can be in TES
Being Dragonborn is above being Nerevarine?
>>340993327
>All the games deal with major world changing events and are always documented in future games
>You are main hero
>Durr are you important
gee I dunno
>>340993949
Not all Dragonborn are Shezzarines. If TLD is also a Shezzarine (which he might be because Ghost in Old Hroldan literally saw you as Hjalti which is one of the people that make up Talos) he is both aspect of Akatosh and Lorkhan.
But that is not hard to achieve considering that Akatosh and Lorkhan are aspects of each other in a roundabout way, almost always someone tied to one is also tied to the other.
>>340994510
Yes since you are actually a walking God. Not a demigod or something like that, all Dragon are aspects of Akatosh and his lesser mirrors so to say, by the virtue of you having a Dragon soul you too are a part of fucking Aka.
And Dragonborn people have done the most important shit over the history, look at Wulf, Alessia, Reman, Talos etc.
>>340994162
Do we know if the next game will take place after Skyrim? None of this was a problem in TESO.
>>340978794
Following that logic Morrowind already did Skyrim.
>>340978189
>>340978189
>>340978189
What song is this?
>>340994510
>>340994737
Nerevarine is a mantling of a mortal champion of a Daedric Prince.
Nerevarine and Nerevar are extremely cool but they are more of Batman, a guy that was amazing mainly thanks to his own ingenuity and skill, as opposed to Dragonborn who is basically Superman, a strange person that has some strange inclination to dominate the world as a whole until one day he stumbles upon a dead Dragon and sucks his soul in realizing that he is actually a fucking shard of Dragon God of Time himself.
>All this meta shit
Ok, Skyrim only fag here. So gods in TES are real and not bullshit like IRL, does that mean Talos is an actual god?
If yes, doesn't that mean the Stormcloaks are on the right yet the devs portrait them in the wrong?
>>340994746
>Do we know if the next game will take place after Skyrim?
Every single TES game has taken place one after the other
> None of this was a problem in TESO.
ESO takes place during interegnum and is ruled by a literal SJW empress who will get killed by loyalist Altmer who want eugenics and "hating other races all the time" back.
By the time Tiber Septims conquest happens SummerSet Isles basically has a giant force field around it that reads
>GO AWAY, TRUE ALDMERI HERITAGE ONLY REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
And they had mirror logicians and Dawn Magicians out of the ass hence why Tiber had to use Numidium to conquer them
>>340995257
>So gods in TES are real and not bullshit like IRL
Everyone is a God. Ada is the natural state of being in TES, Ada means spirit and most the the "Gods" are Et'Ada which just means original Ada.
Mortals are just bound to Mudnus and mortality is forced on them, but literally anyone who gets strong enough, like Mannimarco can become a God pretty easily.
>does that mean Talos is an actual god?
Talos is one of the most powerful beings out there allegedly.
>If yes, doesn't that mean the Stormcloaks are on the right
Both Empire and Stormcloacks are in the right, this is not about who is right
Aldmer Dominion has magic powerful enough to destroy regions with a single flick, the only thing stopping them are other organizations with similar power.
This is about who can fight Dominion better, unified Empire or regions that rely on themselves and this is up to you.
Empire was forced to denounce Talos because they got fucked during the Great War, but as soon a Dominion will fall Talos worship would be back.
That being said, consider the following, avatar of Talos you meet in Morrowind tell you pic related.
>>340995257
>So gods in TES are real and not bullshit like IRL
Fedora as fuck, but I'll bite.
>Does that mean Talos is an actual god?
Sorta, but for the sake of this argument then yes.
>If yes, doesn't that mean the Stormcloaks are on the right yet the devs portrait them in the wrong?
Well, Talos is A sorta god. Not THE sorta god. Also gods kinda work differently in TES. It's complicated. And there's tons of them. And lots of gods of different levels. Talos is just one of many religions, and there's other religions that follow several gods, Talos included. When it comes to bickering about gods in TES, no one is really right or wrong. It's just my god versus your god. Except everyone's god.
It's complicated.
>>340995257
The fucking world of TES is a clock and Talos is a software program.
TES is sci-fi not fantasy.
>>340995257
>so gods in TES are real?
Uh you talk to several of them in the game? Are you an idiot?
>>340995257
Talos is complicated shit man. He is a sneaky guy who might have been a Breton at that. He manipulated one of the strongest wizards ever and one of the greatest heroes ever, Wulfharth the King of Skyrim to achieve all of the power in the world, then he got the strongest device ever that can warp timelines, Numidium and eventually made himself a God. So yes through extreme trickery, three people, Hjalti, Wulfharth and Zurin who eventually unified as one Talos are a God, which is fitting since all of the are avatars of Lorkhan the Trickster God that created the world as we know it in TES.
>>340981979
>symbologies
THE WORD YOURE LOOKING FOR IS SYMBOLISM
>>340995257
Talos is important because
>>340995841
Is sort of right.
Convention is the event which created Mundus as we know it. Story of Talos is Convention 2.0 and Talos as a deity sort of became the operating system of the universe.
Thalmor want to erase Mundus because that will allow them to become Ada again and free them from the mortal coil, and to do so they need to erase Talos.
>>340995705

So what power is this and how did they get it?
>>340996018

>>340996224
Dawn Magic, the original techniques of Magic. Psijic monks have them and higher ups at Aldmeri Dominion.
It's not like
>how they got it
it's more of
>they never lost it
You see Dawn Magic in use when you meet that Psijic monk in Skyrim, you know how he can just stop time without even breaking a sweat? That's Dawn Magic.
Adlmeri Dominion has demonstrated it when they made moons disappear for months because they wanted to experiment on Khajiit.
Khajiit were unstable spirits related to Bosmer long ago and their forms are tied to the moons, so when Khajiit is born he is one of the many breeds depending on the phase of the moon. Strange shit happened to Khajiit when they disappeared. (Pic related breeds of Khajiit)
What about Psijic Order what do they want to accomplish?
>>340996538
Yes, that's the point. They want to be retarded aimless and immortal spirits in shapeless soup of infinite energies.

Dawn Magics is term applied to the magic that Ehlnofey used during Dawn Era.
Basic premise is that usual magic allows you to create simple facets of reality out of pure magicka.
Alteration and Mysticism moreso are shitty leftovers of Dawn Magic that exist in current standard magic, which is to say that Dawn Magic is a lot more about manipulating reality as a whole, controlling time, bending space, transmuting energy into matter etc.
>>340996808
Oh so they know they will be retarded energy, but because they will be immortal it's worth it?
These niggers plan is far worse than the Dwemer one.
>>340996674
Isn't there some special Khajiit who has a super Rastafarian mane because he was born on two full moons or something?
>>340996940
>>340997118
Not really, they also know that there was a different state of being and consciousness back then not comparable to the mortal one, so maybe it's worth it, all that they need to know is that
>We will be together with out ancestors the Aedra
>We will be immortal and in our true form which is the way it's meant to be
As for Dwemer, their plane was basically
>WORLD IS SHIT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>Oh wait, there is some shitty Heart of a God, lets study it and base our reality warping technology on it
>OKAY I GOT IT GUYS, WORLD IS SHIT BUT WE CAN FIX IT BY MAKING AN ANIME MECHA LIKE DEMONBANE THAT CAN CONTROL REALITY
they are bunch of weebs.
>>340997294
When two moons eclipse each other "The Third Moon" can be seen.
If a Khajiit is born under that moon and he goes through trials he becomes a Mane, who are spiritual and political leaders of Khajiit that have deep connections to Moons, Azura and Lorkhan.
Pic related, they are extremely comfy. Khajiit ritualistically cut off their own manes and tie them to Manes mane which in turn absorbs their mane...and basically as time passes he becomes a giant furball.
>>340997628
How the fuck does he walk or do anything?
>>340996801
They are one of the most enigmatic guys out there.
All that we know is that they want to preserve "The Old Ways" and principles of Crystal Like Law which was left to them by Auri-El.
They also live on an island of Artaeum which just travels and disappears sometimes.
>>340997990
Do they support the Thalmor?
>>340996801
They want to restore/protect magic, and the world.
Damn shame they couldnt protect magic from Todd Howard.
>>340997801
He doesn't, he is carried by others and fed and all that. He just talks, smokes Skooma and meditates.
>>340996801
As a member of the Psijic Order, it is important to remain "faithful" to the Old Ways. Members believe that the spiritual world is always watching our world, and a loyal grey cloak will perform the Rites of Moawita on the 2nd of Hearth Fire and the Vigyld on the 1st of Second Seed in order to empower the salutary spirits and debilitate the unclean spirits. These spirits are believed by the Order to be the ancestors of the living, and even the Daedra and Aedra are considered to be nothing other than exceptional spirits who attained great power in the afterlife. They basically believe in a very strange and twisted version of ancestral worship that Aldmeri have mixed with kalpic nature of existence where once the time ends and resets any spirit can become a God...which is not entirely false. Yeah by the way the whole Alduin eats the world thing, that's legit and his function, he is supposed to reset world back to convention and a new Kalpa (unit of time from start of Mundus timeline to it's end) starts.
The Psijics have also practiced pig breeding on the Isle of Artaeum. They originally bred the intelligent Psijic Domino Pig, which is so smart it can count to five and learn to recognize its name. It's a favorite animal companion of spellcasters, as it isn't spooked by magic—in fact, it seems to enjoy arcane activity, sitting back and grunting happily as spell effects go off nearby.
TES VI: Dominion
Magic
> You can now bind your main spells to specific keys, with the defaults being 3456 for right-hand and 7890 for left-hand; 1 and 2 are your bound weapons
> Spells which are the same but with different stats (effectively replacing the lower level versions) are no longer a thing, but every spell can be upgraded once or twice through leveling up and skill trees
> Conjuration has Daedric summons again, although it can be a risk due to superstitious NPCs and the chance of going rogue
> Enchanting is now split between traditional soul gems and those filled via rituals and special locations and therefore not requiring slaughter
> A new skill tree for Shadow magic, which bends space-time at the risk of misfiring and doing something terrible: manipulate time, summon alternate versions of yourself, make a pocket dimension, etc.
Races
> NPCs and factions react different based on race, moreso than previous games
> Instead of a static bonus levels for skill trees, you can now select where you level from each race's options (drop a balance between smithing, one-handed, and conditioning for your Nord, or put everything into archery for your Bosmer)
> Beyond bonus start skills and inherent racial effects, each race has unique content at varying points:
> Nord: Thu'um
> Redguard: sword singing
> Breton: druidic magic
> Imperial: joinable merchant faction (which is actually a spy network for Cyrodiil)
> High Elf: advanced privileges when a member of the Dominion
> Wood Elf: optional Green Pact andstory spoiler: Wild Hunt quest/abilities
> Dark Elf: become a representative of any of the Great Houses
> Sea Elf: serpent magic
> Orc: champion of Malacath questline
> Khajiit: sub-race options at character creation (Ohmes/raht, Suthay/raht, Cathay/raht)
> Saxhleel: periodically undergo random mutation (Histskin, inherent poison which damages attackers, sex-change, etc.)
> Imga: hair growth and shaving which change NPC interactions
>>340978189
Condensed.
Sophisticated.
Challenging.
Cerebral.
Unlike any other TES
>>340978189
I know it's a joke, but I think Hippies is about as far as you can get from the wood elves; the ones that live in Valenwood and follow traditions are solely carnivorous; they aren't allowed to harvest from the forest or to farm. Plus, they're cannibalistic; they are not allowed to waste any meat at all. On top of that, they make all the equipment out of bone, stone, and animal hides, and occasionally mutate into horrific monsters in order to defend Valenwood in times of emergency.
>>340998094
No, clearly since in Skyrim a Psijic monk directly helps you defeat a Thalmor general in Mages Guild quest, and interacting with anyone is a big taboo for Psijic monks.
Their views of original Aldmeri teachings and Dominions views are very different. Psijic want to achieve apotheosis and get out of Mundus that way, a process which is called Dracochrysalis that can be archived by the use of Crystal Like Tower...no one is sure how it's done but still Auri-El said it could be done.
Thalmor don't want to be bothered with any ascensions and decided to create shortcut

It's not a she or a he.

Yeah sure, event though said "accidenta" event played out in favor of Dominion in every way shape or form.
>>340999079
eh, more loresawy lorefags can answer it
from what I understand they already have something called psijic endeavor which is close to CHIM, but them being so tied to their aedric heritage is stopping them or something like that
they want dracochrysalis instead which somehow through arui-el allows you to return to aetherius without fucking mundus up

>>340999613
>you will never go to Akavir and fuck monkey girls with Nerevar
>>340999707
>"Khajiit tradition holds that only one Mane can be alive at any one time"
Which is proven false because there are both documented multiple manes and in ESO quest there are multiple candidates for becoming a Mane.
Being a Mane is obviously achieved through Mantling the third moon.

Somebody else tell him, I can't.
>>340999831
>Which is proven false because there are both documented multiple manes and in ESO quest there are multiple candidates for becoming a Mane.
If you actually played the fucking game you'd know that there were two "Candidates" to be Mane, and your Vestige is "moon hallowed" guide in the trial. Either Khali or Shazah becomes host to the Dark Mane ending their part of the trial while the other twin continues the Moon hallowed path and becomes the new Mane.

oh man i havent seen that shit in ages and forgot to save another when i got my new laptop. Thanks anon
It's gonna be hammerfell and it's gonna be a WE WUZ KANGZ story.
>>341000503
But they wuz kangz. They're from Yokuda and sunk their homeland into the ocean with magical atomic swords in a war and moved to Hammerfell and became Arabs.
>>340999831
>using any of ESO as canon
>>341000503
I hope so. Redguards are best race everything else must be purged
>>341000503
>It's gonna be hammerfell and it's gonna be a WE WUZ KANGZ story.
Thats pretty much the Hammerfell story in ESO. Except apparently traditional Redguards cant kill their undead and the nogs tend to talk in either Jamaican or pseudo-arabic accents.
E'y bumbaclot 'ave ye 'eard about de werd o' Tu'Whacca?
personally I wan TESVI: Secunda

Thats a funny way to say Breton

Goddamn I felt like Drizzt slicing up motherfuckers.
And no they aren't a one to one Arab. They're religion prohibits soul magic use and shit but they're pretty chill otherwise.
>>340999973
>>341000094
>>341000090
Shit, I saw OP's pic and header and haven't seen anything else about E3 today, so I thought they actually announced it
>>341000909
Yeah we just got some Fallout dlc news and Skyrim remastered. No new TES for now.
We're discussing lore and stuff today.
>>341000315
>Becomes the Mane
Notice the "Becomes" part?
Reincarnation does not exist in ESO, mantling, incarnation, aspects, holding the soul in a plane of Oblivion, making a being spend so much time in a plane of Oblivion that he essentially becomes Daedric, that shit is possible.
Reincarnation as in soul going through dreamsleeve and then coming back with all of it's memories and entering a new body is not possible, same way that reviving people once they actually die is not possible.
>>341000909
Gamebryo could never handle Valenwoods vegetation you know.
>>340978189
>It's already been 4 years since Skyrim
>Skyrim was mediocre at best
>mfw thinking about what a casual shitfest this newest Elder Scrolls will be
>There are literally people that thought they would announce a new TES within a year of Fallout 4's release
Holy fuck. I knew /v/ was retarded with the weeaboos and shit, but god damn you guys literally can't even figure out patterns.
>>340978189
All I'm sayin is that the two combined are the size of skyrim
>>341001087
Again thats basically what one of the twins does. You literally go to the demi plane of Jode, fight/kill the Dark Mane and Javad Tharn and the Twin mantles the Title/power of mane BECAUSE ITS BOUND TO FUCKING JODE.
Once again you spew verbal diarreha
So.. what happened to the Dwemer? I mean I know the built a robot that fucks with everything, but then poof. Did their robot backfire and tear them out of reality, or did the godhead realize they were dangerous and chose to forget about them?
I mean I know it's WHO KNOWS WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED, I'm just wondering if their machine fucked up or it was divine intervention. I know they shot themselves in the foot either way.
>>341001260
>Morrowind was 2002
>Oblivion was 2006
>Skyrim was 2011
Definitely falls into the pattern
>>341001879
>All I'm sayin is that the two combined are the size of skyrim
But they'd have to develop two different cultures and that is more writing work.
>>341001879
Imagine treking the jungles of Elseweyr then into the harsh deserts crossing the border into the beautiful forests of Valenwood.
>>341001879
Ive already seen enough of Valenwood in ESO to know its shit. Fucking short elves were bitchy about their stupid Green Pact and only the Ayleid ruins broke the monotony of forests and caves.
Elsweyr MIGHT be interesting if its anything diverse as Skyrim. Reapers March and Khenarthi's Roost left decent impressions IMO
>>341002104
Meant for
>>341001471
>>340996290
Well, true. Overall it is just a dream, but we're talking about the details of said dream. You can just totally brush everything with ITS A DREAM brush when talking about the details of the lore.
>>341002098
Generally it's believed that Godhead himself can not do shit and is not aware, his awareness is everything that exists.
But yes, they disappeared when Heart of Lorkhan was hit by Kagrenack in a vain attempt to finish Numidium before Chimer forces rush in to bumfuck them.
People like to believe based on MK's out of game ramblings that Dwemer who were on Mundus got fused with Numidium and are part of it's skin, hence why Numidium seemingly has a sentience and needs things like "Totem of Tiber Septim" to keep it under control.
>>341002219
>I've already seen enough of Valenwood in ESO
Valenwood in ESO looks nothing like Valenwood
>>340996901
deserts are rad though
>>340994759
Morrowind didn't even do MorrowindI still want to explore the entirety of morrowind and not just Vvardenfell
No, I'm not playing ESO
>>341002104
You're ignoring Elder Scrolls Online.
>>341002243
Good job ignoring other games Bethesda has developed. Fucking brain-dead weebfag.
>>341002219
>Something in ESO is shit
Paint me surprised.
>>341001958
Is that the same quest where you get to see "Wild Hunt" in one of the visions on the moon and it looks like Red glowing Bosmer and red glowing Werewolves?
Yeah nah, ESO is shit.
>>341002098
From what people speculate it seems to have something to do with the Heart of Lorkhan.
General speculation from my buddies is that they managed to create an easy understanding of CHIM which allowed them to ascend. kinda like a Ctrl-Alt-Delete for the entire race.
>>341002208
They can't even do cultures in one fucking region properly.
Cyrodiil has distinct Niben and Colovnian cultures in it which were absent and ignored in Oblivion.
Even Todd said he wished they would flesh it out more because Nibenese and Colovnians are distinctly different.
>>340986565
Different fag here. Daggerfall did the Iliac Bay region, which had parts of both High Rock and Hammerfell.
They should still do it again though since Daggerfall was just 2359265065152986 square miles of the same thing.
>>341002098
We basically know what it is.
When Arneil in Skyrims quest tires to do the same shit that Dwemer did he gets erased and his soul gets bound to you, from that point on you can summon his shade which looks like Dwemer shades.
Dragonborn is tied to Akatosh and Lorkhan, same way Numidium is built according to Heart of Lorkhan.
Consider that and Kikrbride literally saying "Dwemer are the golden skin of Numidium" all the time on lore forums it's safe to assume that Dwemer bodies broke down and their souls got integrated and bound to Numidium
>>341002581
no its the one where you go to this trippy mini plane.
ESO is pretty decent for what it does. I wasnt expecting perfection from it but it met my standards compared from what I expected from Skyrim when I played it. Lore was heavily expanded on, and the crafting system was MASSIVELY overhauled.
Valenwood just sucks because the Bosmer are just so one dimensional and blase.
>>341002459
>>341002571
Nice samefag.
ESO was Zenimax.
>>341002987
>Valenwood just sucks
And shitting on the "coolest" thing that Bosmer can generally do doesn't help it. But I guess they didn't want to make unique mobs for one quest and red glowing Bosmer was enough for them.
Fucking MMOs.
>>341002987
No, pretty sure that vision of Wild Hunt fucking up all of Dominion is one of the pre-quests before the confrontation with the Dark Mane.
>>340994337
It was my understanding all pc's are shezzarines becures "urr own faet" and that
>walking into people's open houses in elsweyr

>>341003134
Its just how it is m8, no need to get your panties in a twist.
Has there even been an area that was playable in two different TES games? Was that Dragonborn DLC in a location that was in TES III? Did they actually keep it the same or did they just completely redesign it?
>>341003460
Don't Khajiit have another name for Sheogorath?
>>340980030
Attributes
>>341003641
Mittens
>>341003624
Arena was almost everywhere technically
Solstheim was in both Morrowind and Skyrim, yes
And no it was not redesigned, but it is heavily fucked because of ash and volcanic eruptions from Morrowind
>>341003280
oh that alternate timeline vision with the feral bosmer? Yeah that was part of it. Threw me off with the "glowing red part"
>>341003641
Sheggora or Sheggorath, not that different.
They do have funny names for deities like Alkosh and Lorkhaj and Hemorath.
Valenwood + Elsweyr together.
Doable and a cool contrast in environments.
Plus it would be interesting for US to be the outsiders and the Khajiits to be on home turf for once.
>>340991495
Falinesti was canonically deactivated.
>>341003624
arena had most regions
daggerfall had some of high rock and some of redguard
morrowind had vvardenfell and solsthiem
oblivion was in cyrodiil and the shivering isles (if that counts)
skyrim was in skyrim and solsthiem
>Did they actually keep it the same or did they just completely redesign it?
well it was 200 years later
>>341003972
No, it just "rooted" itself before Oblivion Crisis and stopped walking, bracing for the impact so to say.
No one knows what that actually means and if it's deactivated, that's just assumed for some reason.
>>340991495
>Talos
Which one is that? Is that an acutal tower or is it just a metaphorical tower as he is different from the others?
>>341003971
>Plus it would be interesting for US to be the outsiders
>I didn't play morrowwind
>>341004049
>some of redguard
>>340979383
I think you mean skyrim 1.1
>>341004283
Tower does not actually have to be a tower, it's a construct that mimics reality to manipulate it and reshape it in some way shape or form.
Talos as a deity himself was formed by copying convention, the creation of Mundus itself and he is a living Tower deity.
>>341004283
Something about the reaffirmation of Lorkhan's role in creation or somesuch. He mantled Lorkhan/Shezzar and anchored his divinity in mankind, a product of Mundus.
>>341003971
Maybe if you dont play as Kahjit.
>>340978447
>when a girl acts silly like this with you
Muh heart
>>341004369
Right, right, where the Khajiit were ostracized and and turned into slaves en masse. Definitely on their home turf.
Go to bed, your bait efforts are waning.
>>341004637
Still dont understand how talos works.
Correct me if im wrong but I thought Talos was a divine Frankenstinian oversoul amalgam with Lorkhan at its core and taking Lorkhan's missing place in the divine pantheon.
>>341004662
>n'wah life
I thought n'wah was an insulting term for foreigners, was I wrong?
