I'd still play the Elsweyr Elder Scrolls game where this was the premise - the main storyline would actually be like an 80s buddy cop movie (or action movie depending on your playstyle) e: or anime movie if you use mods

Can someone remind me how storage works in Morrowind? I don't remember the rules as far as what chests are safe and not.

The vast majority of chests are safe, except for the obviously respawning ones like the guild supply chests. Also, many containers have a weight limit. Dead bodies do not, but they often get removed. Hlaalu Manor in Balmora has a body that isn't removed, and thus a popular place to store your poo poo.

Man, the Bethesda news is everywhere now. Hopefully they man up and decide to give us a 64-bit engine so we can go crazy with mods in the future and not have to worry about that 3.1 GB memory limit.

I want a game that tosses out all playable races so far except Dunmer and beasts, and gives us playable Maormer, Lilmothiit, Inga, Sloads, Akaviri races, and Hist trees. Don't care that the last ones can't move, just hang out being a bro with your lizard buddies, invite the catmans over to chill too, gently caress the guards eat hist/drink skooma erry day.

OneDeadman posted:I want Elderscrolls VI: Elsweyr now so I can best buddies with the wookie catpope. My dream TES:VI game would be "Dominion" and cover Elsweyr, Vallenwood and the Summerset Isles. Its possible! If you look at a map of Tamriel, all 3 provinces together are slightly larger than Skyrim. Rather amazingly, with the exception of Daggerfall and Arena, Bethesda has done an amazing job of actually making the various provinces (Cyrodil, Vvardenfall, Skyrim) the correct size in relation to one another from game to game. The cells actually match. Its pretty impressive.

Bethesda should just do a kickstarter at this point, you know drat well we'd all happily pay them to make the game and then pay them more to let us play the game and then grumble a little but still pay them even more for a pack of new fur patterns for our Khajiits or whatever. The franchise is basically a license to print money, I don't know why they don't take more advantage of that fact. It bugs me a little that it's been years since Skyrim and no one's heard a peep about TESVI....

I'm pretty sure I read that B's plan is to alternate between releasing Fallout and TES games. So I think it's unlikely we'll hear about TESVI until Fallout 4 is out, although it may be close to release at that point. Unless they decide to revisit a province they only have the weird and interesting left.  I guess the least interesting would be Hammerfell, and that would still be great.

There's still High Rock too, which could be an interesting take on the standard fantasy setting with all its warring independent lords. looking at the sizes I'd like to see high rock and hammerfell together in the same game. Maybe with ships to sail around the iliac bay

They've done such a good job with the Thalmor; everybody hates them and they are an existential threat, but they still feel believable and are far more interesting than some evil ancient god awakening again. I expect Hammerfell and High Rock will be the location though.

I mean, there's no travel system of underground tunnels and you're riding around in a giant snakes belly, but it had shapeshifting elves and undead Kothringi, giant Aztec pyramids and you're often having to take a lot of :treedrugs:, and that's just kind of the cusp of Black Marsh that was practically controlled by the Dunmer up until recently. edit: same goes for Hammerfell, its basically Arabian Nights like it was in Daggerfall.

Hopefully, though, an actual Elder Scrolls title set in the more unique provinces like Black Marsh will have a lot more elements taken from the Lore.

I remember rumors floated around about Dragonstar, which is a city that during Oblivion's time was split in two between occupying Nords and the native Redguards, after the War of the Bend'r-mahk. Of course, that situation was probably resolved during the 200 years between Oblivion and Skyrim.

Sky Shadowing posted:My friend, have you ever heard of the game called Daggerfall? Yes but come on no one plays Daggerfall now. I always just write that and Arena off when discussing the series. I honestly think it's a given that we'll get Hammerfell. They can do it justice with current technology, and the whole plot of it seceding from the empire to keep fighting the Thalmor would make a solid narrative foundation. I would love to see the Summerset Isles, mind.

Each Elder Scrolls game is about deactivating one of the towers. If they set a game in Hammerfell, that means the player would need to deactive Direnni Tower, which means we would get to somehow undo Convention. Which would be really weird.

The towers are metaphysical anchors that keeps the world intact and also [kirkbridian babble continues for several pages]. Here's a few links  http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/The_Towers http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Towers

LoonShia posted:I really wish I understood what any of that meant. Hoo boy, okay, let's see if I can get this right, it's mostly MK lore so it's not my specialty... In Tamriel there are certain "structures" that serve as anchors of Nirn, of sorts. They are Ada-Mantia, the Adamantine Tower in High Rock on the Isle of Balifera, Crystal-Like-Law, the Crystal Tower, in Summerset, Green-Sap, Falinesti in Valenwood, Snow-Throat, The Throat of the World in Skyrim, the Red Tower, Red Mountain in Morrowind, and White-Gold in Cyrodiil, which needs no additional clarification, I think. Also Walk-Brass, the Numidium. Basically, each of them are responsible for holding Nirn together, and separate from Oblivion. Each is generally regarded to have a Stone, which may or may not always be a physical object. White-Gold has the Chim-el Adabal, the Amulet of Kings. Red Mountain had the Heart of Lorkhan. Snow-Throat, I believe, had the 'unity' of the Nords, which was broken by the Civil War in Skyrim. One of the popular ideas is that each of the games since Daggerfall has ended with the 'deactivation' of a Tower, which is destabilizing the Mundus and threatening to dissolve it. Daggerfall ends with the destruction of the Numidium, in Morrowind you free the Heart of Lorkhan, Cyrodiil features the destruction of the Amulet of Kings, etc. So basically with each Tower that falls Nirn de-stabilizes. The reason Dagon was actually able to invade in the Oblivion Crisis, when Oblivion's lore presented him as being able to invade whenever the Dragonfires were not lit (which, it should be noted, was the case during the vast majority of the Second Era) was that there were still enough Towers present (Numidium, Red Mountain) to keep that from happening. Then when they go down, the Mythic Dawn deactivate White-Gold, which destabilized enough that Dagon was free to invade. And the deactivation of Snow-Throat allowed Alduin to return. It's not a perfect theory, and I probably don't understand it entirely.
