Are there really transformer robots in Skyrim? : V

I mean I'm not complaining, but it seems a little out of place in a game like this to have terminator spheres rolling around. How are you supposed to kill a robot with a bow and arrow?

The same way we did in Morrowind.

Maybe you should read up on it a little on the UESP. I'll get you a link.

...They've been around since Morrowind. They're steam powered.

Actually, they've been around for a while. We had Centurions in Morrowind.

Dwemer were the nerds of Tamriel. Highly advanced yet stupid enough to wipe their whole race out.

Don't know your lore, I take it?

It's called a Dwemer construct. The Dwemer were big into Steampunk, having more scientifically advanced than most other civilizations on Tamriel.

Correction, they've been around since redguard.

Pretty easily. I lost count how many of those things I destroyed in Morrowind. Real fun was summoning one of your own and letting them slug it out.

We've actually had some form of dwemer robots since Redguard

Dwarven Spheres do you mean, and they were in Morrowind also. They are not as outlandish as maybe say magic. :/

That makes sense, I can see nerds doing that.

Doesn't change the fact they look lame as heck. <_<

They were in Morrowind aswell.

I figured Morrowind would be the closest thing the OP has heard of, if they didn't know about Dwemer before.

I love how the Dwemer Constructs look. :confused:

As long as the robot has a steam punksih look then i'm good it's just one more monster for you to fight what's wrong with that?

The Dwemer sphere made it's first appearance in Redguard and then it returned in Morrowind. The Dwemer were well known for their devotion to science and they were incredible engineers and craftsmen. The Dwemer spheres aren't their only mechanical beings, there are spider sentries and steam sentries and countless other machinations. It's not out of place, it makes perfect sense with the Dwemer's magical technology.

they won't shot lazors at you, actually they look very fantasy-ish and no high tech.

The steam sentries are the big ones right?
They were quite strong as far as I can remember...I think I have to play Morrowind again before Skyrim is released.

they remind me to starwars clone wars droids.

» Tue Mar 15, 2011 12:20 am

I'm glad they're back...I always thought those things were awesome.

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 10:13 pm

The Dwemer machines were awesome in Morrowind and I'm happy to see them return. They might not have fitted in Oblivion had they been put in there but they worked well for Morrowind, and I'm sure they'll do for Skyrim too.

I, for one, am extremely excited to see how Bethesda reboots the look and feel of the Dwemeri ruins, and all things found within, such as their mechanical constructs. It will almost be like seeing what parts of Morrowind would look like if it were developed now.

» Mon Mar 14, 2011 9:07 pm

I think the new Sphere Centurions look sweet, anyone have a screen of the one from the Sounds of Skyrim ?

» Tue Mar 15, 2011 1:16 am

Here's hoping the ruins will actually look like places the Dwemer could have lived in, this time.(Well, goes for all ruins, really)
