Oblivion - Romans Vs Hell

Oblivion - Romans Vs Hell

Skyrim - Vikings Vs Dragons

What will they mix Redguards with in Hammerfell?

blacks vs japanese

Skooma Junkies

skyrim was romans vs barbarians

another Yasuke game

Kino

elves probably

argonian women vs my dick

The boring plot option would be Redguads vs Thalmor. You fight the secret Thalmor masterminds targeting the Adamantium Tower. I would unironically prefer Todd rapes Redguard lore like they did Nord lore and make up some bullshit like they did with the Dragon Wars. Maybe they bring back the left handed elves or something?

As much as Morrowind-era lore is cool and all. I enjoy the way they randomly hamfist new contradicting lore with every mainline game. It keeps the timeline moving forward and pisses off DnDtards who want the world to be static for hundreds/thousands of years so they can make their own little head cannon about every undescript detail. If they had their way we would still be in the 3rd era and would just be exploring different parts of Tamriel like in mods.

What will they mix Redguards with in Hammerfell?

They will probably go for the "blacks vs police" angle.

Blacks Vs Full-Time Jobs

job applications

Todd likes to changes aesthetics for movies he just saw ie lotr and oblivion so my thinking is Dune aesthetics. So middle easterners mixed with north Africans vs giant elf worms.

What will they mix Redguards with in Hammerfell?

Berbers vs Elves

Purely socioeconomic factors

That questlime was lame

Arabs and Blacks (Redguards and their newfound Orcs allies) vs Jews and Whites (Altmer and Bretons)

the two greatest warrior races on nirn vs. the two greatest magick races

kino

like they did Nord lore

Huh? skyrim is almost a direct copy of the old pocket guide lore

Arabs (Crowns) VS Berbers (Forebears) VS Elves (Thalmor with Daedric allies) VS Orcs (Independent Orsinium) VS Romans (Empire) VS Undead

Everyone will control their own areas and you can help every faction, but it will be like Fallout 4 or New Vegas where you have to choose the faction to take over.

blacks vs nazis

kino

Pirates Vs their own inability to stop committing crime

Redguards (who are now basic Wakanda shit complete with tribal African aesthetic) vs Thalmor (who are now even more blatantly boring nazis/Siths), you are the Swordborn who must use the power of the Pankratos Sword to put an ancient evil that has awoken (idk, they bring back the real Mannimarco) and is being used by the evil Thalmor.

you will be a blxck kang and you will have to save the blvck race by genociding whyte cucks and taking dey womxn with your niggashout

What we know so far:

provinces have been confirmed to be Hammerfell and High Rock, possibly Summerset too, speculation over Valenwood coast

ship building, sailing, combat and trading confirmed

main quest will heavily feature the Thalmor

Swordsinging will be a big mechanic

heavy Indiana Jones vibe, lots of ruins with ancient artifacts to explore

possible addition of new race

What we know so far:

that's fucking gay

And we know that from where, exactly?

What we know so far:

game is made by the same people who made shartfield

still on creation engine

still written by pagliarulo

lmao

Oh yeah? Then where are the snow whales?

YFW they say Hammerfall Forever

arabs aren't black.

If the Thalmor are not a big part of the next game then they fucked up. They cant build up that shit in Skyrim and go nowhere with it.

Just about all lore related to dragons in Skyrim was new, most notably for that guy's point, the idea that the shouts are a dragon thing, in previous games it was described as a natural Nord ability related to Kyne.

There's also the almost complete erasure of the Nordic pantheon, which people fight over because some say it was a conscious lore development to show that the Nords became imperialized over time and others argue was just a retcon done purely because Bethesda didn't wanna confuse their retarded normalfag fanbase by expecting them to keep track of two pantheons (the latter group is almost certainly correct)

And also the fact that the Nords in TES V generally act very "normal" instead of being the wacky violent semi-tribal barbarians from the previous games and books, which gets the same type of discussion as the pantheon thing

so are redguards supposed to be middle eastern or african?

Snow whales were not in the old Pocket Guide lore at all. They're from Kirkbride's out of game texts, at least one of which was written just to be as ridiculous and weird as possible, without any intention to ever be incorporated in a game.

They are in american media.

from starfield

niggers vs robots

You are on crack brother.

It's probably not going to end on basic country lines, wouldn't surprise me if it included the reach and the gold coast.

my and my redguard brothas and our katanas vs your scrawny little white boi nord pencil necks

Redguards vs racism.

Both and neither you retard, TES races all incorporate elements from different real life cultures, they don't have to have one direct "real life parallel" the way a lot of the TES fanbase expects them to for some fucking reason. That being said, the Redguards themselves are indeed supposed to be phenotypically subsaharan african in the same way Nords are clearly scandinavian, as very clearly said in old dev interviews

TES6 gameplay

instead of being the wacky violent semi-tribal barbarians from the previous games and books

It's true, even their jarls in Skyrim are beard stroking political intrigue merchants or else just bland passive retards. it's only really the Silver-bloods who have the level of arrogance and brutality that I associate with the old nords

asks a question

get an unhinged rant

Is the MC the last dragonborn? It can't take place too long after Skyrim

ask question

get answer

don't understand it because he called you the hecking mean r-word!

He's the niggaborn, the most powerful being in the known world

can't wait to learn the ancient yokudan art of rha'ap that puts the thu'um to shame

I hope you get to hold your sword sideways

What was Morrowind main conflict then?

culturally based on north africans

phenotypically based on subsaharan africans

why do burgers do this every time?

you will be able to wear baggy garments and form your own guild, which the natives so curiously call "gangs". all of them deal in thieving and killing, even the wizards guild, which on top of those will also teach you how to perform sleight of hand tricks even the most advanced of yokudans will have a hard time understanding

Dunmer civil war

Redguards vs Imperial Border patrol

I guess that makes sense. Redguard from the 90s was very Piratica,l so a mainline TES game set in the region would also have a lot of nautical elements as well.

In Solstheim. You walk across a bridge made from one.

Europeans did it too, that's where the term Blackamoor comes from. Nones are nones, don't worry about it.

we wuz pharaohs n shiet

Black women vs the Patriarchy

It's quite literally been a thing since medieval times. There's a reason the heraldic "moor's head" is a black as night fellow.

I don't even know how they'll incorporate Skyrim lore and the existence of the dragonborn. The outcome of the civil war alone is going to be a headache.

Jews vs Mudslimes

>heavy Indiana Jones vibe, lots of ruins with ancient artifacts to explore

I tried playing the Bethesda Indiana Jones game and I dropped it after a few hours, I don't like this rumor

Kangz vs honkey ass crackas

go to Mediterranean area

coat of arms

nigger on there but its north african

sit down you obsessed eurotard

white women

but there is one they fear.........HAMMERBORN

black pirates vs nails

Has it being in hammerfell being confirmed? Wouldnt they make a fresh game, just remake the old hammerfell like oblivion

I want a fucking dwarves game, where are the drarves

Orks, giant snakes, dwemer ghosts, thalmor and imperial scum, invading norsecucks and the numidium

in the Deeproads or Orzammar.

Redguards vs Fentanyl

I want a fucking dwarves game

TES dwarves/dwemer poofed out of existence but there should be dwemer ruins in Hammerfell.

Yeah exactly, make a game of why

Morrowind

It’s obviously gonna be a Thalmor centric main quest. The equivalent of Shivering Isles/Dragonborn dlc will be travelling to High Rock. KOTN/Dawnstar dlc could be anything but won’t have a new map and will take place in Hammerfell. Would of preferred Elsewyr and Black Marsh though.

Niggers vs smoke detectors

You forgot
Morrowind Hindus vs indoor plumbing.

If Elder Scrolls 6 doesn’t cover at least two regions it’ll be a letdown given how long we’ve had to wait

I loved the section about the dragon priests during the dragon wars from the pocket guide.

Give it up. It didn't matter when it was written and even less so today.

I consider it THE foundation for TES lore.

Sounds like a personal problem to me.

What was Morrowind?

culturally based on north africans

This is in fact a very narrow view of Redguards. They have multiple cultures with multiple influences including even modern American Black cultures.

Yes and Redguards aren't arabs

The Redguards are the Japanese in this metaphor.

the idea that the shouts are a dragon thing

There's exactly one reference to Nord's being taught the voice by winged daughters of Kyne. Associations with Dragons via Ysmir and Tiber Septim are far more prevalent.

Why do so many brainlets take that image as Hammerfell + High Rock?? It's clearly Hammerfell, High Rock, half of Valenwood and Auridon.

Stros M'Kai is way smaller than that island and the Hew's Bane peninsula doesn't look like that at all, that little line is the coast of Cyrodiil connecting Valenwood

Medieval knights versus aliens

How are they gonna replace shouts in this game?

Akavari snake people invasion makes a lot of sense to me.

Highly doubt Valenwood will be in the game. Probably hammer fell/high rock base game and a summer set isle dlc.

By simply not including them?

Be a bit odd for them to go around the two weakened nations closest to them to invade the far stronger nation with a bigger history of naval culture.

How could you have a war against the Aldmeri Dominion without any of their provinces in the game? DLCs are always separate from the main story and the Imperial vs Aldmeri war is obviously gonna be at least half the story

People said that would be the case in Starfield but...

You think the new chosen one we play as won’t have some special ability after shouts? I doubt it.

Lore wise it's the most interesting part of the game. It's a shame that like 2/3 of the quests were just 'go into suchandsuch fortress with your nigs and kill like 10 Stormcloaks/Imperials'.

Because they’re probably just invading hammerfell and we drive them out.

Redguard vs altmer i.e. niggers vs jews.

New chosen one will be a Redguard by default

What special powers we getting then?

Probably some capoeira sound style that basically does the same thing as shouts but animated differently.

The HoonDing doesn't really have any outside of just being inherently stronger. Ironically the non-redguard versions of the god have more powers.

That would mean they stretch out the conflict for another game, not going to happen. Skyrim introduced that plotline and that game came out 14 years ago, they're going to make it just another dot on the timeline, ES6 is going to wrap things up, and for that they will need the Aldmeri zones, which is what the Starfield hint shows.

the exclusion of Anvil feels odd it's a major port city after all

Hammer fell is bigger than Skyrim and you think we getting Highrock and some of Aldemri Dominion zone base game? We’re lucky to even get Highrock in base game they could easily just have Hammerfell and a Highrock dlc.

Will be funny to see Stirk in an official game after the island has been made by modders for multiple games like a dozen times.

I just roughly circled it in, the city could be included

and a Highrock dlc

My money is 100% using either Cyrodiil or maybe Stros M'kai if they follow the Skyrim method of having the last DLC be a "nostalgia" one.

You've seen Starfield, Bethesda will go down that route, prioritizing size

If the rumours are true and it’s sailing/pirate themed, I can’t wait to play as a pirate Khajiit.
Just hope they look more like the Oblivion ones and not the Skyrim ones.

Stros M'kai is really small, like it's one quarter the size of solstheim small, a DLC of that size would just be Tribunal in scope

Another Akavir invasion? Wouldn't they typically invade from the other side of Tamriel?

Stros M'Kay was as big as Skyrim in Daggerfall.

Why wouldn't they use the most overused plot in the most overused province?
Bethesda is creatively bankrupt and afraid to take chances.

If that's what ends up happening then hammerfell is going to be 90% desert, high rock an extension of the reach and valenwood like a lusher falkreath, and they'll probably raze some cities in lore to compensate for the huge scope

oblivion khajiit

Even Morrowind khajiit look better than those ugly things.

What will they mix Redguards with in Hammerfell?

Bloods vs Crips.

The better idea would be to save the island hopping gimmick for the DLC, have Stros M'kai, Stirk, and the Gold Coast/Anvil as places. Maybe add some new islands in the region(have the plot be about the Sload or something). Good way to do something new with the nostalgia factor.

Why is high rock circumcised?

What’s that Dwemer thing in the mages college in Oblivion that looks like a planetariam? I was playing remastered yesterday and one of the mages mention there’s another one in Highrock.

They call it the Crowns vs Forebears.

What if the events of Starfield is the result of a Dragon Break and is also tied to the disappearance of the Dwemer. What if it was the Dwemer who actually created the Unity and the Artifacts?

Stros M'kai wasn't in Daggerfall.

Take my money!

Skyrim was meant to be a complete snowy wasteland. In the game, it's lots of tundra, maple-beech forests, and only the northeast is blanketed with snow.

Fair enough. It was Betony.

taking dey womxn

This would actually genocide redguards as race is passed down from the mother thoughbiet.

Whites might actually be impressed by something like this because no game from an official standpoint has ever actually been a brazen black power fantasy.

Daggerfall has a much larger scale than every other TES game y'know, it's actually country-sized while the latter games' maps are all city-sized

no game from an official standpoint has ever actually been a brazen black power fantasy

Ironically the black actors in Redguard, praised the game for essentially being one. Especially since it gave them writing black actors don't usually get in fantasy.

No it was not. The pocket Guides are not subjective canon, they are propaganda pieces for the Empire and hold a lot of lies or misconceptions from a person living in Tamriel. Saying Skyrim is a snowy wasteland is the same as saying Egypt is all desert in our world.

You have to be 18+ to post here,. or you would know this isnt the case from lore in Daggerfall and Morrowind.

The Pocket Guide doesn't say Skyrim is all a snowy wasteland either, just that the farther north you go the colder and wilder it gets and the Nords who live there are more savage and tribal

And we do see this depicted in morrowind as the Skaald are depicted as just that while being the most northern.

Orsinium status?

It's gonna be dragons again so they can have an excuse not to design towns, so they can force you the player to build them like in Fallout 4.

niggers vs civilization
screencap this

Why does it look like Haiti?

You'd think if it took place in High Rock and Hammerfell, it'd include Orsinium.

Burning ruins, Bretons don't want greenskins on their lands

Working as intended.

Artist?

Mania

This Canon? 've noticed theirs zero mutts.

I'd assume Samurai vs Zombies.

Yes it is. The mothers race will always be what the child is. Takes literal thousands of years of systematic inbreeding to start developing traits of the fathers race like bretons do.

that's a penis

Rebuilt and currently in the mountains south of Markarth, it lines up pretty well with Exarch's Stronghold in Craglorn actually.

Ass Creed Shadows already exists

Does Todd worship Black People as much as Kirkbride did/does?

To add on to this a bit the main bad guy is going to be the Lich of Zurin Arctis or a Sload.

based

It's a retcon from Morrowind. In Redguard, there's specifically a halfie (atleast) and in Skyrim there's the Emperor Plegius who you can see is part Human (probably Imperial) part Altmer not to mention the existence of the Bretons. For a while, the Hlaalu in Daggerfall also had mixed features (but they were actually changed in real time to be more Dunmer, I think the lore around them changed as well) I think this retcon is no longer the case, but the sheer sludge of the many retcons that Morrowindia inflicted on the series still lingers to this day like a bad smell.

Blacks Vs Laws

I don't think anyone does.

Nah, Todd's the kind of guy who goes out of his way to turn the Redguards more arabic and less black because black people are too controversial, which is exactly what Bethesda had been doing between Skyrim and the Oblivion remaster

Redguards are black racially they have cornrows, afros and other black hairstyles

and in Skyrim there's the Emperor Plegius who you can see is part Human (probably Imperial) part Altmer

What did he mean by this? The guy didn't even have Altmer parents.

Bethesda Indiana Jones game

Doesn't exist. Machinegames (Wolfenstein reboot) made it

Shhhh... they are trying to pretend they were always arabic.

Bethesda owns Machinegames.
If you want to do a midwit nitpick, you can argue about the difference between Bethesda Game Studios (Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Starfield) and Bethesda

How can somebody possibly not know that the Redguards are black when their Morrowind models and Oblivion key art looked the way they do? Is the proportion of Elder Scrolls fans who have never touched a TES game that isn't Skyrim really that fucking massive?

Think I must have moved universes from my Berenstein Universe, or I got my Emperors mixed up maybe.

Yes, there is a difference.
Bethesda Game Studios is a developer, they make games, Bethesda Softworks is a publisher. They are not the same entity.

They know, they just don't want to admit it

Redguards are racially black, this was always the case. Culturally they have a mix if arab, african, central american, and even modern day black american. They are one if the most fleshed out and complicated cultures so giving them an overarching tag doesn't really fit in any way.

I watched some TES VI "how I would do it video", I think it was Camelworks or someone like that, and the Redguard glaze was fucking INSANE. Like constant fellatio, at the expense of the other races (specifically the Bretons who's province was tacked on). Quite frankly, I was disgusted. Is this an American thing? Why are Redguards worshipped like gods by fans of this series?

niggers vs jobs

Redguards are obviously black in Skyrim too, so I can only assume it's ESO troglodytes.
They also have Japanese inspiration with characters like Gaiden Shinji and Yokuda having lots of similarities to Sengoku era Japan.

Pelegius is overall odd, two sources name different mothers(both were the same author who clarified the one that says his mother was altmer is false) but he's still a breton despite both canonical parents being imperials. Legit I think know one was paying attention(which fits with the sheogorath quest)

skyrim

witcher 3

people are sick of whitey.

Thanks for doing the midwit nitpick I literally just posted about verbatim.

It'll be a new mc and the dragoborn will fuck off back to his planet

They are propaganda

What is the point of misinforming people about Skyrim's landscape? The pocket guides are propaganda, but in different ways e.g shitting on Redguards and Nords. There is no reason to lie about Skyrim being snowy. Even in the Bruma pocket guide, they say that Bruma's climate is closer to Skyrim than to Cyrodiil, why would they lie about their own county? And it's understood that this is accurate on account of Oblivion.

Bruma is understood to be a Nibenese county, but in truth it is more Nord than Nibenese, on account of its close proximity to the Skyrim border

Either way, there's plenty of other lore you didn't mention. Like the Arena map of Skyrim which is mostly covered in snow.

TES1 Arena City Descriptions:

We bid you welcome to the arctic wastes of Solitude, the northern most City-State in the realm. Beware our might…

The Rear Guard

She had returned to Morrowind even before the king’s army had left, preferring a life as a wanted fugitive to a free existence in the cold of Skyrim.

Nords of Skyrim

How are such achievements possible from a people who have yet to emerge from the muck and snow?

Children of the Sky

Wind is fundamental to Skyrim and the Nords; those that live in the far wastes always carry a wind with them.

On The Preparation of the Corpse

In Skyrim, the cold weather and isolated terrain allow a few Necromancers to operate freely. Alas, the availability of corpses is limited to Nords who die from exposure or in battle. While the cold is preservative, the snow makes these corpses difficult to find.

The Wolf Queen

The long, cold, dry winters in northern Skyrim had created a map of wrinkles, thin as a spiderweb, all across her face

Dialogue from Oblivion:

"No one wants to live in the Jerall Mountains. Well, maybe in Bruma, but they're like Nords. They don't feel the cold."

So according to lore we are led to believe that Northern Skyrim is cold and not forests and marshlands like Haafingar in game.

Khajiit are where it's fun with design evolution.

this needs to be updated for ESO and Remaster

Making a distinction between a developer and a publisher is not a nitpick, but regardless, you're welcome.

Funny how we only really got kirkbride bosmer once.

Forsworn have taken over the reach in the chaos of the Skyrim civil war And the eastern reach also appears in TES VI

a redguard worst enemy

Skyrim Bosmer have black eyes and are shorter than the other races, ESO Bosmer can have antlers and black eyes. Really only Oblivion Bosmer are a complete departure from that concept

If you go furthest North in Oblivion's map, Skyrim is completely covered in snow.

see that mountain

can't climb it

It's actually the pocket guide to Bruma which reveals most about what Skyrim's climate pre-Skyrim was like.

Well I don’t know, whats the new groundbreaking fantasy movie/tv show of this era, like Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones? You mean there is none? Then there can’t be a new Elder Scrolls game, they won’t have any ideas

I want to draw like Kirkbride

Skyrim should just have had a season system (we know they were interested I. That) desu

implying bethesda would go through all that effort and not just leave it to modders

HotD and it even has blacks with blond dreads

Ironically they actually did during their "content jam" they do after the game finished. One dev fully made a functional season system they just never implemented it.
youtu.be/8PedZazWQ48?si=CWm3P_hiIXTrRY8h

I don't understand why the arabs were picked to be the blacks in Tamriel. Like why weren't the imperials, nords, Bretons, or any other human race picked to be the blacks of Tamriel?

is it a "Moor = Black" thing? Because I think I'm starting to see a pattern

Hammerfall will be an Israel / Palestine allegory

You have it backwards, the blacks were picked to be arabs.

Well Redguards did genocide the native nedes.

And also the fact that the Nords in TES V generally act very "normal" instead of being the wacky violent semi-tribal barbarians from the previous games and books

I mean, if you want that you can find hundreds of them in caves and old forts.

spears

man....

why weren't the imperials, nords, Bretons, or any other human race picked to be the blacks of Tamriel

this is honestly a good idea because it will spice things up and will feel fresh for once. instead of the usual nigmoor trope we get in Anon Babblediya and fantasy

Redguards aren't arabs.

The timeline is as follows

arena and daggerfall they were just the black race

kirkbride and todd got a hold on the lore and made them moorish(among other things) while keeping them looking black

Can I learn Tricknology?

Imperials being the black or Bretons being the blacks sounds perfect to me tbqh

The idea from Kirkbride was to make the black race a colonizer to shake things up compared to how blacks in fantasy are normally depicted.

No, I was actually referring to The Black Panthers and their radicalism.

As some people know I’m not really a fan of the United Colors of Beneton approach to Tamrielicreation, which smacks of white guilt and offensery rather than some holistic form of beautiful inclusion. Thus, it’s my fault that the Asian analogues got eaten. Oops. Looks like others are bringing ’em back, though. But I promise my choice had nothing to do with Yellow Peril, it had to do with co-opting “coolness of color” without thinking about it intelligently and compassionately.

That said, when I started writing Redguard I really thought about how unique the black people of Tamriel were: they came in and kicked ass and slaughtered the indigenes while doing so. They invaded. It was the first time I had encountered the idea of “black imperialism”…and it struck me big time, as something 1) new, 2) potentially dangerous if taken as commentary, and 3) potentially rad if taken as commentary.

Who knows. AVault did say it had a story worthy of being on stage, and Michael Mack (Cyrus) once thanked me for giving him words that “Black folks don’t get to say” (referring to Cyrus’ speech and the reversal of Son to the Father)… which broke my heart and made me puff my chest all at the same time.

Legit modern devs would never in terms of representation.

Oblivion/Skyrim map design is not all that different to battle royale map design where they just take one map and then separate it into multiple different isolated areas that are differentiated by gimmicks, climates and seasons. You can tell it's what they tried doing with Fallout too to varying degrees of success; Fallout 4's map for instance is separated into the core being city ruins, the north being mostly stretches of rural plains, the glowing sea being a hazardous zone, etc.
Most holds in Skyrim are separated by seasons:

The Pale - Winter

Haafingar - Spring

The Rift - Autumn/Fall

Whiterun Hold - Summer

They probably thought it was pointless to add a season system, even if it was achievable like

I hate when devs tell us about things they completed but didn't implement. Why the fuck would you dangle this in our faces just to pull it away and laugh like a child treats the family dog

This was released right after launch, so it was more if a "look at what might be" which was the case as a lot of it was implemented in the DLC's.

Ctrl + F Fent

My nigga.

Drows vs cults

Peryite will be the villain. He's giving everyone in Tamriel STDs.

Those are called biomes, and they predate BRs you little zoomtard.

You have to choose a blue eyed nord in the character creation for that

Redguards vs Imperials.

Delusional, they won't give us more than 2 in one Game, honestly I'm pretty sure itll be just Hammerfell, 2 countries would be too much work and effort for Bethestda

give examples of how game design trope predates BRs

retard thinks he's smart because he brings up how they predates BRs

Did you just hop off the short train buddy?

ship combat

don't fucking lie to me, that's the only reason I stuck with asscreed odyssey for as long as I did

Because your brain is too small to conceive the fact that the Redguards are made up of multiple different cultures

But in ES the blacks ARE the japanese

None of this is confirmed but making Maormer playable in a sailing game would be cool

Compare an old design trope to the new zoomer genre

Gets mad when he's told that said design trope has a term and predates his stupid comparison

Find some rope.

Nobody's getting mad. You however are fuming out the asshole because someone didn't use your epin game design word to describe something. The comparison was made because the game design trope is so game-y and unrealistic the comparison unironically fits. Keep shitting yourself and screaming.

black nords

How the fuck does that make sense or is "refreshing"? Every other IP nowadays is doing dumb stuff like that and is getting ridiculed for it.

biome

epin game design word

Oh, you're simply retarded.

black nords

Already a thing in Skyrim.

Black Roman stand-ins and black Celt stand-ins makes no sense. At least the black Moor stuff has some historical validity.

Must be surprising to you that people use vocabulary that is wider than the range of utterances thrown out by their favorite video essayist. You must've latched on to that word quite recently if you're this belligerent about it.

That's not really a black phenotype. Just looks like a Caucasian with dark skin.

I can tell you're sucking on my nuts right now. Just slobbing my knob.

He is a darker than a poojeet.

thank god for that, what hideous designs

You've already confirmed you're a retard for thinking that an environmental term is a "epin game design word". Unironically just end yourself, typed up all that garbage just because your vocabulary is 2nd grade level at best.

Lemme guess, you think this is a white person.

akavir invasion

overused plot

I don't recall that every happening unless it's in the MMO. If you mean the generic invasion plot then yeah I see your point, would much rather have elf civil war or Sea Elf piracy niggers

blacks vs nazis (thalmor)

Wait until you learn that English words can become different terms when applied to different contexts. Here we are discussing open world video games so within the context "biome" is a game design term, yes. It is also a geographical, environmental term, but saying it's a game design term is not incorrect because things applied to in-game biomes (like the gimmicks you see in Fallout or Fortnite) cannot be applied to real life geographical zones, which widens the definition greatly.
You're so desperate for a victory over semantics that you've lost the plot entirely.

If it’s like irl. Redguards will be genociding Bretons.

Do seasons play a part? I know the games are set in specific months

No

Holy cope. The context is the same you bumbling retard, biomes mean the same thing in regards to the environment as they do in game design. Made an absolute fool of yourself just because you're an ignorant retard with 2nd grade level vocabulary and assumed that biome was an "epic game design word".

biomes mean the same thing in regards to the environment as they do in game design.

The biomes in Fortnite are differentiated by which nigger celebrity shows up there. Nothing to do with land, landscape or climate as it does in real life. These are video games.

So why did you compare this shit to Skyrim retard?

Because Skyrim is a video game using the exact same conventions? And it's entirely unrealistic in most cases?
Like in what fucking world does travelling a single mile transport you to a wet marshland shithole, then moving slightly north places you in a fucking frozen wasteland, then going slightly to the east puts you in a fucking rainforest?
Skyrim's "biomes" are its holds and they're all so congested together because of Bethesda forcing everything to fit within the abstraction offered by the Xbox 360/PS3 that it makes nothing feel real. It feels exactly like a BR map.

It is nothing like a fucking BR if your example is the norm. Skyrim's biomes have different environments, wildlife, fauna and weather, you know, like actual biomes. The scale of the game has no bearing on makes a biome a biome.

Sadly prototyping and actually implementing stuff in a game are two vastly different dev time scales

prototype a spear

take an existing weapon

give it a different model and animation

done, spear "implemented" and visible as such in a video no one gets to play

vs

implementing spears

design all the various spears that will be in the game

model and animate every possible motion such as special attacks, carrying, putting away etc

spread it in the loot tables and decide which NPCs will carry them

figure out the game design aspects such as how powerful they are, what are their advantages and disadvantages

figure out how it fits into the attribute and skill system

bugfix bugfix bugfix (okay Bethesda skips this one)

stopping the Thalmor in the main quest
Crowns vs Forebears as the Empire vs Stormcloaks sideplot

start off in helgen being transported through a forest

escape to riverwood

walk across the street

end up in a grassy tundra area

walk up a nearby hill

end up in an arctic wasteland

How is that not like a BR?

different environments

wildlife

fauna

weather

All of which is in the biomes in Fortnite and/or other BRs. This is where the comparison is drawn.

I think they hit an actual engine issue with the lengths of the spear and attack animations as well.

Bullshit. I'm blowing fat loads all over you.

I mean Morrowind had spears/halberds didn't it?
I can't see a spear animation being longer than some larger spells

you know it will never live up right// the map wont even be half the size of daggerfall

I bet the head of the thalmor is gonna be an ayleid that somehow survived because he was in oblivion or something when pelinal was horsing around

What, you think it's like a BR because the game world isn't fuck huge and there isn't miles between biome transitions? Please tell me you're not that stupid.

What we know so far

You literally know nothing you fucking retard

Arabs (Redguards) versus Jews (Thalmor)

Hol up

Dune-inspired setting

Sword Shouts

Lmao

No. You can go on nexus and download a spear mod right now.

watch them pretend the city of daggerfall does not exist

Gainful employment

fuck you racist

Indeed, but see you should note when Bethesda says it's an engine issue it means they are retarded. See them being unable to get individual bullet reloads to work in fallout 4 even though obsidian did it in NV.

Smoke alarm batteries

When did they ever say spears and individual bullet reloads were an engine issue? You can also hop on nexus and download an individual bullet reload for the lever action rifle right now.

It's like a BR because the world isn't realistically scaled between biomes. It has the same effect as a BR where half a mile down the road from snow-covered wilderness is a desert. They could've made it like Morrowind where you only have access to half the entire landmass of the province but instead they needed the whole province to make mouthbreathers go "wow".

biomes

Are dumb. They are seriously immersion-breaking unless they are scaled to be utterly impractical or can only be accessed by fast travel. Skyrim did "biomes" great because everything was as you might find it in a temperate, boreal or mountainous region. I hope they stick with that and not have snow-Hammerfell or swamp-Hammerfell or not-really-but-it-is-Japan-Hammerfell.

or they could have doubled the map size

It's like a BR because the world isn't realistically scaled between biomes.

That makes zero fucking sense, You do know the games had smalls scales before BRs were a thing, right? Still none of that changes the fact that Skyrim's biomes are actual biomes, and not recoloured skyboxes like in your fortnite pic.

Gaiden Shinji was fucking BLACK???

What the name didn't give it away?

Hammerfell is probably one of the more Geographically diverse regions, it has Dune deserts, Mediterranean coastal regions, subtropical coastal regions, temperate and warmer rainforests and a large and relatively cold mountain range in its north eastern third that will look like Skyrim or at least the Bruma region of Cyrodill.

He's the black weeb personified into TES.

You do know the games had smalls scales before BRs were a thing, right?

Yes and? Name three games made before Oblivion/Skyrim that had 9 different biomes in a map that is less than 15 square miles in length.

Still none of that changes the fact that Skyrim's biomes are actual biomes, and not recoloured skyboxes like in your fortnite pic.

The only difference between Blackreach and any other Dwemer ruin is the giant mushrooms and blue skybox.
The actual otherworld has a lot more overlap, you can find the same forest assets being used across the map from Haafingar to Whiterun hold.
The "biomes" in Skyrim are the holds, even if they reuse assets, but your reasoning here is illogical, because for many areas, they reuse environment assets.

I'd rather cities like skyrim where the NPC's actually have a routine and do stuff than one that's big for the sake of looking big but is pretty empty.

I'd rather cities like skyrim where the NPC's actually have a routine

Skyrim's NPCs have more simplistic routines than Oblivion despite Skyrim's cities being much much smaller. What's the chance they do both again (dumb down the AI AND make the cities smaller)?

non-main cities in ES6 are literally just an inn where the NPCs in the area just go back and forth from their assigned bed and where they stand all day doing nothing.

SOVL

Alright teschads, what tactic do we adopt for when 6 drops and it starts getting wokebashed by clueless gentiles because of all the redguards everywhere? Do we claim some retarded bullshit like blacks are based and redpilled or do we pray they don't bash it too much?

Yes and? Name three games made before Oblivion/Skyrim that had 9 different biomes in a map that is less than 15 square miles in length.

I can't. Open-world games weren't exactly commonplace pre-2011.

The only difference between Blackreach and any other Dwemer ruin is the giant mushrooms and blue skybox.

Blackreach is an underground cavern, the rest are just dwemer ruins, why the hell would you compare them?

The "biomes" in Skyrim are the holds, even if they reuse assets, but your reasoning here is illogical, because for many areas, they reuse environment assets.

Yes, holds and biomes are linked together. And there's a lot of asset reuse, it's 2011 game made to run on a system with 256MB of memory. Skyrim's biomes are still biomes.

The saints of the sword are described in lore to be poets and artisans who mastered the way of the sword to much degree, and are described to have continued with their poetry and craftsmanship. So it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say that these "songs" are just different swordsinging techniques written in a way the ancient yokudans would've written it, in songs and poems.
But you have a point about the sword itself singing, maybe these different techniques could make their own distinct sound.

I heard it was going to be ships and pirates

Open-world games weren't exactly commonplace pre-2011.

You're a zoomer who doesn't know what the fuck you're talking about, there were plenty of open world games made before 2011, many of which had much smaller budgets than Skyrim or Oblivion.

Saints Row 1/2

True Crime: NY, Streets of LA

Far Cry 1/2

Gothic

GTA III, VC, SA, IV

Red Dead Redemption

Mafia

Just Cause

I could go on but I think you get the point. None of them abstracted as much as Skyrim did because all of them set reasonable goals for their development cycles.

Blackreach is an underground cavern, the rest are just dwemer ruins, why the hell would you compare them?

Because Blackreach was supposed to be a massive underground nexus and hub in Dwemer society which connected multiple strongholds. It's supposed to be different, even the game's own CK differentiates between it and any other interior and it has its own unique skybox and assets.

Skyrim's biomes are still biomes.

Yes, but only because of game design. Skyrim's forest assets still appear in arctic areas, its tundra assets still appear in its aspen forests, and its marshes still use grassland assets. The "biomes" in Skyrim are again, the holds, and in lore this is reflected as much.

Just suck it up. There is no fighting the woke backlash. They won.

The empire (police)

This is something real that someone wrote? Holy based.

DO YER WURST

Yes that’s kirkbride

Let it go anon, thats too big for Bethesda, it's just going to be Hammerfell
