Daedric Realm

Post » Fri Jul 02, 2010 2:56 am

I just realized Jyggalag is on the list. He doesn't have a realm, and I imagine in 200 years, he'll have returned to being Sheogorath once again. Our stopping the Greymarch was only temporary.

I believe after the champion AKA you defeated him and stopped the greymarch the curse was lifted and Sheogorath became Jyggalag once and for all, and the champion became the new sheogorath

Any reason why people want to visit the realms, other than the cool and wow factor? Because that's all I'm really seeing.

Because this is TES. Daedra are a staple of the series, and it's always fun to learn more about them. There are still many realms we've never seen, some we've never even heard much of anything about. After SI, Jyggalag (sp) was reborn, and since then may have taken a realm for himself. We want to see the realms because it's a huge part of the lore that's still largely unknown to us. The same reason we want to see Akavir, it's mysterious. We read about them in books, but never get to see them with our own eyes. That mystery will always leave many people (myself included) wanting to explore the realms of Oblivion. :D

@Hellmouth
I think those are good reasons. :)
If something is cool you want to see it right?
No, not when it doesn't fit, otherwise it cheapens everything. Skyrim, doesn't fit. Oblivion, much more allowable, because the separation between the realms were shaky.

Because this is TES. Daedra are a staple of the series,
:rolleyes: as things to kill, fun bits to read, and quests with the big guys. The only time in the main series that anyone went to the actual realms was Oblivion, and that was due to Mundus and Oblivion being a little shaky.

and it's always fun to learn more about them.
Doesn't require going to the realms. Before OB, books, talks with the princes, and artifacts were enough to satisfy enough curiosity.

There are still many realms we've never seen, some we've never even heard much of anything about.
Yeah, all of them save for Mehrunes Dagon and Sheogorath, and those were due to special circumstances.

After SI, Jyggalag (sp) was reborn, and since then may have taken a realm for himself. We want to see the realms because it's a huge part of the lore that's still largely unknown to us.
Ha, no. He's actually very insignificant. He had maybe 1 or 2 mentions in obscure books before OB, but was never really heard from or cared about till SI.

The same reason we want to see Akavir, it's mysterious.
And what worse way to kill the imagination that making it known, and thus boring.

We read about them in books, but never get to see them with our own eyes. That mystery will always leave many people (myself included) wanting to explore the realms of Oblivion. :D
Thing is, I like that mystery. It makes them mysterious, distant, alien. I like that, and I would like to keep that as it's more fun to be teased than having everything exposed. It's also why I LOATHE anything to do with Akavir, as it holds almost no baring on anything people make it out to have. Also, it's supposed to be INCREDIBLY hard to get into Oblivion. Sheogorath made it easy because he wanted mortals to enter on their own free will and to do his chores. Mehrunes Dagon broke the barriers. As for everyone else, they just seem to want to play around, not actually have people around.

I like the fact that there are different realms and i would like to see a lot more but i really like Azuras Moon shadow
Then I hope enjoy playing completely a game that's fuzzy and hard to see visually, because all who enter become half blind in her realm.

I could see Hircine's Hunting Ground being an expansion. It really would seem to be a bit too much like Bloodmoon, however. Yet I think if it was his actual realm, it would be quite interesting (plus, you KNOW we would get werewolves for sure if he is involved). I can almost imagine there being a loud horn echoing of the top of a mountain, with a booming voice shouting " All ye who believe themselves mighty and brave, COME! I challenge ye to face the most deadly of games!"

As far as deadric realms in general, there are a lot I would like to visit, but I dont see it happening outside of an expansion.

It's happened before though. The Greymarch was stopped, Jyggalag was separated from Sheogorath, and a mortal became the new Sheogorath. Just look at the story of Arden Sul in context with the beliefs of the Heretics. But then what happened? They became one once again.

Hermaeus Mora and Azura's I'd imagine would be most interesting to me.

I think we've all seen enough of Mehrunes Dagon's realm :P

I voted for Hircine's, Vaermina's and Azura's realms, and that is my order of preference. I think that the first two have great potential for horror: the first pure adrenaline pumping fear and the second more of a surreal, psychological thrill. I voted to see Azura's realm because I want some interaction with a Daedric Prince that isn't nasty. I'd be happy to let Meridia's realm stand in for Azura's.

Oh, great. I really thought the way SI ended was quite cheap.

Anyhoo, different topic. Don't wanna be raged at for Obilvion bashing. >_>


I'd like to hear the opinions of those that want to see some of the other realms. It always seems to be fans of Hircine, Azura and Vaermina that take place on Prince threads.

Vaermina

Her quest in Oblivion was always one of my favorite.

Why do you care? Are you somehow the authority we have to explain ourselves to now?

Everyone knows you're a "lore master" and your opinions are always biased by that.

And I see no reason why anyone needs to explain themselves to you so you can feel justified that you're right because you think the lore/game should or shouldn't be a certain way.

Because this is TES. Daedra are a staple of the series, and it's always fun to learn more about them. There are still many realms we've never seen, some we've never even heard much of anything about.

The same reason we want to see Akavir, it's mysterious. We read about them in books, but never get to see them with our own eyes. That mystery will always leave many people (myself included) wanting to explore the realms of Oblivion. :D


And since I'm not going to give one, ^here's^ an explanation for you Hellmouth.

Is that good enough for you?

Oh wait......I don't care.

You semi dismissed the contributions of people who want those realms right after I put those exact three as my preferences. Cut me deep.

Only joking. It's fine.

No, wait, it isn't.

I think he just interpreted what you said into meaning people who like those three deadra princes were typical.

I voted for Hircine's, Dagon's, and Molag Bal's realms.

Hircine's because, like the OP, I love Hircine. However, since pretty much the rest of the game will be forests, I think there would need to be some other land types in this realm to keep it interesting.

Molag Bal's realm because, frankly, it sounds like a pretty freaky place. Like taking the coldest, darkest parts of Skyrim and putting them all in a blender along with all manner of demonic visages. However, we will have seen lots of cold already in the game, so that can't be the main draw.

Mehrunes Dagon's realm specifically because it ISN'T like all of Skyrim. We saw it in Oblivion, and the whole "blackened earth, seas of fire" thing might be a good way to break from the cold tundra and snowy forest. However, we did just see it in the last game.... It's a juggle.

I'm Sorry!!! :cryvaultboy:

:cookie: ?

Actually, personally, I've always imagined the two to be quite different.

Skyrim, I would think, would be the more "harsh" forests, with the cold weather, and what-not, where as Hircine's Realm would be the "Horror Movie" forest. If you know what I mean. I may just be rambling, here.

Curiosity.

I assume you didn't get the memo.

Everyone knows you're a "lore master" and your opinions are always biased by that.
You make it seem like that's a bad thing.

And I see no reason why anyone needs to explain themselves to you so you can feel justified that you're right because you think the lore/game should or shouldn't be a certain way.
I'd at least like to know if there is a deeper thought than the cool and wow factor. I don't know it, so I want to know if others can articulate why. Of course, since I don't like the idea of going to another prince's, I am going to argue the antithesis point, but if someone can smack me upside the head with a great explanation, I will yield.

When I play Morrowind, I say "wow". If I didn't, the game wouldn't be very fun now would it?

Gameplay, Lore, Design, customisability, etc. all go into the "wow factor". :shrug:

We had enough of Oblivion in Oblivion. Now it's time to have a plot dealing with Shor and Alduin. The Aedra should actually play a bigger role in this, because the end of a kalpa is the Dawn Era.

Speak for yourself please. Many people would love to see more Daedric realms.(I guess I'm speaking for other people now too... Hmm...)

Really, this. It's the [censored] nords, and their pantheon's time to shine. Lets let it shine. Morrowind, heavily daedric influenced, makes sense there would be plenty of info on the 3 good and 4 corners. Oblivion, Oblivion invaded and the barriers between Mundus and Oblivion were shaky, and it makes sense the daedra have a time to shine, especially MD. Skyrim, end of the world, civil war, Alduin, and Shor. No need for the princes to interject, there's going to be plenty without the need of the princes. Skyrim should be more like the Daggerfall experience.

But why can't we have both? While I do agree that the Aedra need more involvement in the world, showing that they're not as benevolent as the silly Imperials make them out to be, Daedra are that one unique aspect of the game I hope we'll never lose. Looking into the lives of the Princes themselves could be VERY interesting.

I'd like to make it clear: I personally would like to see the Princes Realm's in Skyrim, but I don't think it will make or break the game.
