Should Skyrim's playable area extend to neighboring province

Post » Thu Nov 18, 2010 2:02 am

You realize that including parts of other provinces wont get rid of the invisible walls right? All this would accomplish is moving them, and hitting them would be just as annoying as it was in Oblivion. I don't see the point of this at all.

Besides, if you have the PC version you can remove the invisible walls in Oblivion by editing the .ini file, but after a few minutes of exploring the previously forbidden regions behind them you'll quickly get bored by all the empty land, empty land, occasional tree, and more empty land.

Why? That close to the border there wouldn't be much difference between two areas. In addition it makes justifying the rest of the borders harder. Why can you cross this one but not that one?


^ This.

I think it would lead to some serious flammage against the dev's. If you could, say... explore the NW leg of Morrowind but never set foot in Hammerfell, what happens to the players who really don't like Morrowind but love the idea of wandering a little bit Hammerfell's real estate? It will just be easier to quarantine the gameplay to Skyrim.

Its possible other provinces will be in. TES 1 was called Arena and it did not confine you to a arena. Oblivion didn't make u stay in the planes of oblivion. Daggerfall didnt force you to stay in the city of daggerfall. Just because its called skyrim does not mean we are restricted to stay in skyrim.

Expect vanilla Skyrim to limit you to Skyrim, and maybe a pocket plane or two.

Expect modders to bring you other parts of Tamriel.

I don't see the point really. And what is the point? People always want more. More more more.
"TES:IV Featuring Skyrim!" "WHAT ABOUT ANOTHER PROVINCE?!?!?!1"
"TES:IV Featuring Skyrim, and half of Morrowind!" "WHAT ABOUT ALL OF MORUROWIND WTF11?!?!"
"TES:IV Featuring Skyrim, ALL of Morrowind, and half of Black Marsh!" "WHAT THE [censored] WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER HALF1?!?!?!!"

This is how it is, and this is how it will always be. :rolleyes:

personally, i think they should add the whole morrowind mainland in an expansion, unless they plan to make another morrowind game since our morrowind game should've really been named "Vvardenfel" we never got to see anything of the mainland except for the capital (mournhold)

Elder Scrolls 2 was named after a city and it allowed you to venture outside of it. Yes I know we are only having skyrim, i'm just making a point about games being titled after locations actually having more than what the title suggests.

My monies on there being a mod create on the last TES in order to explore the whole of tamriel.

Alternatively Beth may do it as the grand finale :D would be an unbelievable undertaking though

I would love it if they included another province. I know it's not going to happen, but I have wanted that to happen for a long time.

I think it should have the border crossings but you shouldn't be able to go past them.
