Well, I bet he could send the dagon worshippers to a land all its own instead of spreading itself within the widths of its opposers
And also, that quote? Has to be utterly and completely untrue.
All gates in Oblivon are open until you close them..
No, they are not. More gates open as the game progresses. As you get farther into the MQ, the maximum amount of gates that can be opened increases, when you pass too close to a potential gate site, the game determines whether or not to make that potential site a live site. The Game also opens certain gates upon reaching specific quest stages.
And how do you expect dagon's worshipers to get sent to a land all their own? Are they gonna shoot gold outta their ass, buy up a lot of supplies and buy ships, and go journey to islands unexplored? Also, the most important targets are In Tamriel. The Septims they need dead, the Amulet they need to steal. It's all Tamriel side.
And if so they are only open for a few minutes. Why did the cities of cyrodiil have so much trouble?
Oh no an Oblivion Gate!!
Guards come quickly its a gate to Oblivion!
--Guards Come--
What in the God's Names are you talking about, there is nothing there!
See what I mean?
And in Kvatch, if the gate could only be opened for a few minutes, why did the guards even set up a camp? The duration of setting up a camp would take longer than the gate could "Possibly" be open.
I dont mean to bash but.. That is just ridiculous!
Things changed, and your not paying attention. The barrier was weakened severely, so much so that they were no longer limited in how long they could open gates.
