So winterhold used to be the capital right? So I assume it was the capital when the jarl of winterhold was High King, when Olaf one eye became high king I assume it changed to whiterun, so when/if Ulfric becomes high king will it change to Windhelm? Because he keeps Elisif as jarl of solitude and that’s been the capital for centuries probably since after Skyrim was solidified under imperial rule and succession crisis’s stopped they wouldn’t need to change it unless the Moot chose another which they wouldn’t since it was basically ceremonial at that point.

Im wondering this cause what happens when Elisif and Ulfric (both candidates for the throne die with no heir and the moot has to choose another jarl. Will holds with tiny towns really be an option? Or in lore are all holds kinda big instead of 6 people in Morthal

Whats the best location to farm alchemy formulas?

Any ideas?

First of all, excuse my bad English as it's my 2nd language.

So hear me out, I have never fully played an ES game before but I sorta know a thing or two about Skyrim because it was a huge thing growing up back when it was released (I'm 25 now btw), plus I tried playing it on a friend's pc once and I was going to start playing it on mine but for some reason I never did. Nowadays I've decided to start playing the anniversary edition of Skyrim but I thought should I play Morrowind and Oblivion first?

So I started researching and watching videos of them and they're absolutely amazing games and years ahead of their times with Morrowind being the most huge even more than Skyrim itself, but at the end they are still old games and in order to make them modernized-ish I of course will need mods.

My final decision was to start with Morrowind, Oblivion then Skyrim, so I started to watch videos about modding Morrowind, what to do and what not to do and I settled down to use OpenMW as it's currently the best and easiest way to mod Morrowind. As a result, I started watching a video about why OpenMW is better than MGE XE and how to install it, but as I was reading the comments I've stumbled upon someone talking about [Skywind] and how it would be superior when it's released!

So obviously I googled Skywind to find out that it's a complete remaster of Morrowind using Skyrim's engine and honestly I was blown away of the amount of work and dedication the modders have put on for 12 YEARS !! to come up with a perfect solution for people like me who want to play the whole franchise but with modern style. But what about Oblivion? I wonder if there's a similar project for it, and sure enough behold Skyblivion😂.

Now my new plan is:

• Complete Skyrim 100% with all of its expansions including what is already released of Beyond Skyrim.

• Play Skyblivion as it actually has a release date now (2025).

• Wait for Skywind to be released if it's not already when I'm done with Skyrim and Skyblivion.

What do you guys think? Can anybody add anything to what I already know or perhaps correct a wrong idea that I've got?

Despite having 300 hours in the game, I am genuinely still asking this question. I’m CP500. I have finished so many zones 100% but still have so many left to go. Idk if it’s because I’m an mmo player to begin with, but I initially enjoyed completing zones however I haven’t really played through a story I truly loved. I own most of the DLC to the game but haven’t played any of it. Ive largely been focused on the main base game.

Should I prioritize the DLC zone stories? I’m kinda burning out of the game but I’m thinking that’s largely because I’m playing the oldest, most boring content.

Are the new zones better, or should I put up oblivion again lol.

I've only know of the Skyrim cut content locations, Cascabel Hall (A castle west of Solitude), Hrothgar (A settlement first mentioned in Morrowind on Mount Hrothgar, now The Throat of The World that was retconned to High Hrothgar in Skyrim), and Karthald (which is the 10th hold of Skyrim that was taken over by Reachman in the 2nd Era so it technically appears but not in name).

Yes I know the Gleamblossom is rare but people did know of Darkfall so it counts (also as much as I hate ESO Gleamblossoms are known to exist) and I'm also aware Belladonna is only in Morrowind but it's the only flower Native to Solstheim that's not a mountain flower also people know Yellow Mountain Flowers exist it's just in lore they're super rare and Falkreath is the only place known to have them (unless they appear in ESO or Blades and I just haven't seen them)

Need help defeating bosses in vvardenfell starting with missir-dadalit egg mine by nchuleftingth wayshrine. I have no friends and can’t do it on my own. Thank you.

Note that during the 3rd Era the capital of The Reach has changed multiple times between Karthwasten Hall, Markarth Side, and Snowhawk (Karthwasten Hall has also just been referred to as Karthwasten during the 3rd Era)

Also note that during the events of Morrowind and Skyrim Falcrenth (hold and city) has been renamed to Falkreath

Also also note that Solitude has also been referred to as Haafingar during the 3rd Era and Dawnstar and The Pale have been depicted as apart of Winterhold (the hold not the city) and Morthal never exist making Hjaalmarch apart of Haafingar

2 quick facts during the 3rd Era Fort Frostmoth was the only fort in the province of Skyrim as the nords were talented enough to hold their own and Dwarven Ruins only existed in the far eastern mountainous parts Eastmarch & The Rift meaning the Dwarven Ruins in The Reach should be Direnni and the Dwarven Ruins in the north and on Solstheim should be Falmeri & Atmoran/Ancient Nordic

Oh and The Throat of The World was been know as Hrothgar during the events of Morrowind and has occasionally been mapped as a settlement despite High Hrothgar being the only location to ever be shown on the mountain (also there's probably some city, town, villages, and settlement mentioned in pre-Skyrim lore that I missed)

When you have a full day to do nothing, getting high and playing feels like really stepping into another world. Walking the roads to your next destination feels therapeutic. Morrowind in particular is best for this

I've read before that "not all dragons are born equal" and i know there are some insanely powerfull named ones, but i wonder how powerfull would averege dragon be? and since human in TES are super-human too, i wonder how would they compare to military?

The question is very basic but I am still curious. There also must be dragons that didn't appear in Skyrim but as that is the only game I have played, I wouldn't know without checking the wiki.

​

As for me, my favourite is Alduin. Generic answer but I don't care.

Also I purposely ignored post 2013 lore as it consistently ignores pre-existing lore constantly reconing lore (I don't think post-Skyrim lore including CC/AE is canon cry about it)

If Daedric Princes were real, name a real life historical figure who would have perfectly fit the bill for being their champion.

Examples:

Sanguine/Sheogorath- Rasputin. Debaucherer? Genuinely crazy? Quack healer? He's such an enigma, these two Princes might be clamoring to claim him as champion.

Namira- Jeffrey Dahmer. Cannibal who played with the dead bodies. Yep, definitely sounds like Namira's domain.

So I want a tattoo representing Kvatch as it’s my beloved. The problem being is the Kvatch logo is near identical to the Wolverhampton Wanderers (English football team) logo, and since I live in England I can’t be bothered explaining it for the rest of my life.

Is there any Kvatch type alternates? I was thinking maybe the Imperial diamond logo, but anything else? Is there a Gold Coast/Colovian one? Or something Kvatch related that’s not the wolf (and not an oblivion gate!)?

Ps. When I had to add a flair I wasn’t expecting a tattoo one to be there! A popular subject I guess.

Thanks.

With the release of StarField and bethesda having expansive procedural creation of gameplay area plus modern combat; Personnaly would you prefer a new IP of TES 6 or a Remake of Daggerfall in a modern settings and style?

I ask that as I think with TES 6 Bethesda will try to make a massive game with multiple sub regions in the next TES project. Which imo daggerfall already did, I personally would like to see an updated creation engine redone daggerfall in a more modern setting / story.

I am currently replaying through Oblivion as a Witchhunter and have been having a lot of fun. This made me think about the other pre-built classes in Oblivion and how each of them compare to one another in terms of how fun they are. So what are your all's favorite pre-built class in Oblivion?

Imagined if they opened a cameo or whatever app, who would you choose and what would you like them to say, I don't know about y'all, but I want the voice actor of Dagoth Ur to tell me happy birthday :D

Just wondering what everyone's preference is, figuring it'd make for fun discussion.
