The only way to get huge fast is to insult a passing witch and hope she curses you with Beast-strength.


That’s where I checked out. Never finished despite stoning a bunch of hours into morriwind lol

Perfect preparation for the Imperial City sewers. Frankly it shouldn't be the Thalmor that are the big threat in Skyrim, but the rising Goblin Empire of Cyrodiil

It's been about twenty years, but as I recall the main quest of tribunal is actually impactful and has stakes. But you also never stop fighting goblins, lol.
C/D?

Look I'm not racists, I have many goblin friends, but goblins are just not fundamentally not good people and deserve to be slaughtered on mass. But like, only for their on good. It's for the best for them.

Tribunal Goblins are insanely powerful which is a fun Subversion of Goblins as trash mobs.

It really puts Dagoth Ur's plans in perspective knowing that if he actually marched his army of hosed up Sleepers onto the mainland every single one of them would get totally bodied by lovely sewer goblins. Vvardenfell was Newb Island the whole time and he had no idea.

I'm still mad that you end up making it to the Clockwork City only for it to be a tedious linear dungeon with basically nothing in it.

breaking into a nord tomb and doing some fun necromancy experiments is like the most dunmer thing imaginable. it's easy to forget but the dunmer include nords in the category of "neighbors we really hate due to 3000 years of history" and the only reason there weren't a bunch of nord slaves in morrowind along with the argonians and khajiit is that the empire would be more upset about slave raids into skyrim than into black marsh

You know you didn't have to go post that, right?
But it's fine, I guess...

You just keep being you!

It's weird, what with the Skyrim-Morrowind-Blackmarsh alliance in Elder Scrolls Online. Some sort of 'no one gets to slaughter our greatest enemies but us' deal where they put aside their differences to beat someone else up and then immediately go back to killing each other.

I assume it came together, for the writers, because they couldn't fit in with anyone elses' groups with some sort of imbalance going on.

There's some strange stuff going on with goblins on Oblivion. Warring goblin tribes fighting over totem staves, UESP claims that goblins will keep chasing you even through oblivion gates if you steal the staff but it hasn't happened to me. There's Goblin Jim the breton who leads his own goblin tribe, there's no lore or notes about this at all...just Goblin Jim in his cave with his goblins.

there's supposed to be an entire radiant mechanic/campaign thing about goblin tribes fighting each other that you normally never notice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-QPuhtgrAo

Future TES games should have a separate Necromancy skill-tree where you unlock doing fun stuff with corpses.

You'll need to go to Loverslab for that, I'm afraid.

The times when the Skyrim quest marker totally bugs out is always fun. I was doing the quest for Arniel Gane to get Keening. The quest marker said I should go into Mzult, the Dwemer dungeon from the College main story to find it. This was completely wrong of course. Wonder what causes this to happen.

Were you on the step to find the courier? Mzulft is a valid location for the previous step, to use a Dwemer convector.

Quest markers have a habit of getting stuck in certain places, especially if you use teleportation mods from within an interior. Did you use a spell or item to get back to Arniel quickly after getting the convector from Mzulft?

e: Essentially, the game knows that to get from where you are at this specific point in time, to where you're supposed to be, you need to go through a particular door. Normally the game handles this fine, even if an interior has multiple entrances or exits, but if you instead teleport away, the game sometimes get stuck on that door. After all, you haven't gone through it yet.

I've been playing FF7 Remake and it has like 10 tips you can scroll through during loading, but loading off a NVME drive I can't even finish reading one by the time it's over. I guess it was originally a PS4 game.

Lol, same with DQ 11. There's no scrolling, though. It's just "here it is", "there it goes".

WoW has them too, but even with NVME they are still readable. Game is nigh-unplayable without a SSD, I think one is part of the minimum specs.

Depends on your time frame! I once started taking my room mates sedentary dog on my morning jogs and after a couple of weeks he got his wind and started running my rear end all over neighborhood, you could just almost see the exercise strengthening him in real time.

Elder scrolls works the same way :pseudo:
