Elder Scrolls teaser page is live

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 12:06 pm

Shouldn't be happening now -- The Elder Council is up. http://www.facebook.com/#!/TheElderScrolls

At least we found out who the Elder Council is now. It was sure missing from TES IV.

What do you guys see in the teaser site? Anything interesting? To me it looks like white gold tower is on top of that Oblivion gate to the right...

I'm not up on the lore as much as others so there's only so much I recognize, but I get the feeling that as more info about the game is revealed we'll understand more about this mural and what it means. I'd even wager that it plays a role in the game, as an actual location that can be visited.

Excuse me for being rude, but it's not "sight", it's "site" - short for "website".

Anyway, I'm not up on the lore as much as others so there's only so much I recognize, but I get the feeling that as more info about the game is revealed we'll understand more about this mural and what it means. I'd even wager to bet it plays a role in the game, as an actual location that can be visited.

That was rude. I certainly know that site is short for website. I'm not a simpleton. I've been typing for the past three hours, I'm tired, it was a misprint, sue me...

Anyway, it looks like the guy to the left of the wizard-type-dude in the center has a spear. Maybe spears will be back in Skyrim...

P.S. Hope I spelled everything right this time...

That would be really cool... especially if it involves the 3D stonefire-breathing dragon. :D

Does that figure to the right of the Oblivion gate remind anyone else of the Numidium? Or is it just me?



Actually, looks more like http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Akulakhan


EDIT: Oh, somebody already found that.

Ok looking at the stone wall background I see..

A Nord (dragonborn), with a beard, wearing blades armour, he has a sword, and a shield which protects him from fire. Behind him are there more Blades weilding blades, and Saluting the Dragonborn with the shield. They would only salute the emporer like that and the imperial blood line which could be called the Dragonborn by the Nords. The Dragonborn likely wont be the player character, which may mean just a rehash of Oblivions story where you have to protech him bla bla bla and he fights the bad guy at the end of the game. It looks like the nords/blades are wearing capes.

I see a stone dragon, probably stone becuase of the stone wall. He is brething fire. In TES IV Akatosh whoc was a dragon saved tamriel from Mehrunes Dagon. The only Other dragon is Boethia. In TESV the shrine to Boethia is made of stone. Or perhaps some bad guy just summoned a stone/undead dragon golem or sumthing. The dragon looks like its mising its skin, you can see it is bearing its teeth and mising a few teeth, as if its an undead dragon.

There is an oblivion gate. so I guess were going back to Oblivion, maybe to Boethias (Dragon) realm. Which willl no doubt be firey and look like hell (where else would you expect a dragon from oblivion to live).

to the left of the Dragonborn is a woman with flowing logn hair wearing Nord boots and armour. She is carrying a staff.

in the midle there is a skinny dead looking guy who looks like moses with a berd and long flowing hair. Hes holding some sort of torche in his hand and hes wearing a long ornamental robe. Holding his hands up like hes praising or summoning the dragons.

To the far left of her is a mage casting some kind of gust of wind. and holding a staff with a blade on the end, He is wearing boots and a robe with a hood, and also has long flowing hair.

on the very left are more dragons, which are also breathing fire. they look like undead dragons.

At the bottom are more depictions of nords fighting, riding or hoses, or fleeing.

There are some skeletons on the right below teh large dragon, which either look like they re praising the dragon or dieing.

Repost from a different thread:

Is it just me, or does anyone else think the guy to the right of the horse in the lower left is carrying a crossbow??

Thats what i thought too at first, but now i think its a lit torch... thought it is rather long. it seems like its on fire or maybe its a spell
Maybe its a lit torch and his breathing fire from it from drinking too much mead

Yeah, I wouldn't mind if they put all the stuff back up that they for some reason decided to get rid of completely for the sake of the teaser. As far as I can tell these include past game downloads (Arena + Daggerfall), Construction Set for Morrowind and Oblivion and associated Max plugins, and official plugins for Morrowind. Also, all information and artwork for all past games. Or did I miss the "skip teaser" button?

I can't get it to load. It just slowly fades in the TES symbol, then nothing.

Why is this thing connected to a Social site? Multi-player? Cooperative? Makes no sense. Why require membership ANYWHERE off Bethesda's own servers?

Needs help. It's not working for me. When I go to www.ElderScrolls.com set my age and country, but all I see is an emblem of the game. Any suggestions?

By the way, the facebook link didn't work.
