Oh man, I just had my first Dragon Riding Dragon Battle, that's so fun.
I was eager to try it out and Bended Will the first Dragon that got close.
My Frost Dragon fought bravely but died to the Revered Dragon.
Still got both souls though.
Good thing we landed before he died.

Hey I got a question about the Elder Scrolls universe, are the different player/civilized species capable of interbreeding? Do you ever see characters of such unions in any games?

I've only played Skyrim and heard vague things on the subject in general, so I'm confused on if that is a thing that happens or not.

It's not wildly discussed in "polite society", which is the excuse the game producers give to avoid it altogether. But they have touched on it.

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Notes_on_Racial_Phylogeny

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Agronak_gro-Malog

A few of the races, like Bretons, are suggestions to be mixes of Mer (which Orcs technically are) and Men. "Phylogeny" is still your best reference for this, as well as the Lore entry on Races in the UESP.
>> No. 169552

Actually, isn't there a in game book that goes over that very subject?
I'm sure I've run across one while playing.
>> No. 169553
>>169552
Yes, that would be Notes of Racial Phylogeny.
Also Tiber Septim didn't want a long-living half-dark elf child to mess up his own childrens' right to inheritance so he had his child with Barenziah aborted.

The games seem to go out of their way to avoid showing alot of the 'interesting' things relating to the different species, like all the different varieties of Khajit, or some of the awesome races and cultures mentioned in the fluff but never having appeared onscreen.
>> No. 169600
>>169584
Yeah, that's pretty much the Elder Scroll's lot - anything that really breaks out of the Tolkein-ized standard of medieval fantasy is relegated to fluff, never shown and rarely spoken of.

I think this is why Morrowind is so much better than Oblivion and Skyrim (although Skyrim is also good, just in different ways). Vvardenfell is so completely alien, and once you get over Morrowind's couple entry barriers (usually by modding them out, like dice roll melee combat), it's a blast.

You know what Skyrim needs next?
A quest to learn how to speak Giantish again.
Then you could make friends with the giants, or at least parlay in a non-lethal manner that you are not here to kill their mammoths and maybe we could trade junk for cheese?
Also it would lead to getting a unique giant as a follower! Haha!

I was referencing /v/'s attitude towards almost everything Bethesda makes.

that's /v/. It's not even that funny anymore. It's just sad.

At anyrate, what the fuck is with the price still being $59.99 on steam? I'd get Skyrim, I liked what I played at a friend's. At least, I'd play this more than Oblivion.

And everyone tells me I'd probably enjoy Khajiit.

Is there any truth to the rumours they are making a new expansion titled 'Redguard'?
I wouldn't mind more adventures in Tamriel, I don't think they would compare in scale to what went down with that first Dragonborn wanker but it would be great to visit a new land...

I just want a greater chance to stick it to the Thalmor. Even if it's not enough to crush their regime entirely, then at least seriously hurt their hold on the Empire.

Hell, I'd even settle for an entire expansion devoted to messing with the Thalmor in ways that doesn't actually hurt their holdings, but still pisses them off. Putting fire salts in their shorts, filling their scabbards with honey, smearing their armor with troll mating musk...
>> No. 171423
>>171312
Bah, you know the next game is going to write the Dragonborn out in some lame fashion like all the rest and the Thalmor will still not get a kicking.

Its sort of annoying having all this power and not having anything to do with it, the only thing you run into is condescending Daedric Prince's.

It would be funny if there was a DLC set in the Summerset Isles.... and if you weren't a Thalmor or at least another kind of Elf that could pass as a Servant so you could subtly undermine the regime every town basically become a battlefield, every loyal soldier and supporter against you.

So all the Expansions are wrapped up and the Legendary Edition is supposed to come out in June. http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2013/04/25/skyrim-legendary-edition-launches-june-4th/

Uh, I've already maxxed out all of my learnable skills, how would I be meant to get any more levels beyond that?

Honestly I'm glad I played the game before I got the DLC, stuff like the vampires interfere with what you've got going on in the main plot, if you wait until you've completed the main game story it just seems to be a case of 'further adventures await'
>> No. 173582

>Uh, I've already maxxed out all of my learnable skills, how would I be meant to get any more levels beyond that?

The latest patch enables the player to make a skill 'legendary'. What that does is reset the skill to its default value, allowing the player to level it up all over again, and getting back all perk points spent on that skill tree. Sadly, making the skill legendary offers no benefit besides removing the level cap, and knocking certain skills down to starting level late in the game necessitates having other high-level skills to switch to. Destruction specialist? Better work on your conjuration so you can summon atronachs to keep the enemy busy while you're back to darting around casting flames.

At the moment, the only thing you get in recognition of making a skill legendary is a little Imperial dragon insignia near the skill, with a counter to keep track of each additional time you make it legendary.
