Im pretty sure they are. They’re just not descended from the same tribesmen that all the other human races are.

Elves and humans came into being when a progenitor race fractured. The ancestors of elves stayed on Tamriel, while the ancestors of humans left to other parts of the world. The ancestors of the nords went north, and the ancestors of the redguards went east. Despite redguards, nords and elves all diverging at the same time and being equally separated, as of Skyrim elves are counted as mer and redguards and nords are counted as men.

this is your first mistake when discussing elder scrolls lore

this is the series where saves, reloads, and health potion pauses were written into the ingame esoterica

It would be less insanely dumb if it was what creation myths are in reality. Every time I stumble across anything dealing with something like the Silmarillion my eyes start rolling so so much that my optic nerves snap.

kingdom come deliverance has a lot in common with oblivion but is way better written and despite being the first game from a central euro outfit waaaaay less janky for those who want to relive glory days and also lockpick the vagina of a woman who has turned into the pig while tripping balls and thinking you're satan [this is something that actually happens in the game]

Nothing in Jurassic World is natural, we have always filled gaps in the genome with the DNA of other animals. And if the genetic code was pure, many of them would look quite different. But you didn't ask for reality, you asked for more teeth.

I'm interested in kingdom come, but word on the street is that it has a TON of bugs.

nothing crippling from my 25 odd hours of play and from reading threads on it. certainly no worse than your standard bethesda or obsidian release. i have a suspicion the assertion it's a bug-riddled mess is a bit of confirmation bias - that was certainly the expectation given it's from a central european dev making its first game and pursuing a design philosophy with novel elements, and there are enough bugs there to say 'yeah there are many bugs', but it's far from crippling.

It's fine. I've played like 20-30 hours so far and fell through the world 1 time and that was the worst thing I've encountered. It's not any worse than a Bethesda game on launch, and might even be a bit better. The worst thing about it is you need a beefy rig to get a smooth 60 fps.

Oh one time I was doing some archery contest and the guards freaked out thinking I was shooting at people so I had to reload a save and start it again. :shrug:

I'm also using a mod on PC that lets you save as much as you want so there's that.

e: If I had a complaint it is that the "kill last witness = no crime" thing isn't a Thing apparently because if you murder some innocent dude alone in the woods somehow the whole village knows about it next time you're there but w/e.

Cool. I guess the bugs were exaggerated or got fixed with a patch.

It doesn't but it doesn't have "strength" or "dexterity" either because all the characters are basically fetuses so I embellished

Black people used to have low intelligence but high perception, asians were roughly the other way around. It's hard to find the exact detail because they took it out of the game
