No temples

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 2:41 am

Why are there no temples in Oblivion there were in Daggerfall and Morrowind why have they taken it out i thought it was nice to have a temple guild i am currently a worshipper of Zen in Daggerfall it was a shame they took it out in Oblivion. There was the temple of the one but you couldnt do anything there as i have said it was shame if anyone could provide anwsers i would be gratfull.

This is Cyrodiil, not Morrowind - they don't have temples, they have chapels. Which you can see in every major city, one dedicated to each member of the Nine (except Kynareth, for obvious reasons).

The Temple of the One is a waste of time until after the MQ ends.

There were supposed to be many, many, many temples (chapels, whatever...) of Dibella, but there weren't. Cyrodiil was supposed to be a jungle... Oblivion=Lore Mess Up...

In previous games it was described as so but things change.

I went to lore at uespwiki, found cyrodiil and control f for jungle found nothing. I didn't read it b/c I don't like reading on computer (on paper no problem), don't have perfect eyes.

Well I don't know exactly where it came from but I do know it came from something that came before OB.

By the way try the Imperial Library it is a better site for lore.

Thanks for the name of the link and did find it saying it. Well there is lots of trees in Cyrodiil, but why say jungle and not woods or forest?

Should've known stating Oblivion's flaws was a mistake. The crazed Oblivionites are as bad as the crazed Morrowhiners...

I am a Morrowindian, and anything that screws with the lore=BAD MOJO in my opinion, and it has been described as a JUNGLE not a forest. Practice what you Oblivionites preach, you say don't put Morrowind on a pedastal, we say don't put Oblivion on a pedastal.

Bethesda was lazy and didn't want to make a jungle, they made a generic fantasy wonderland. Not going to tell you how simplified it is, or else you Oblivionites will flame me all to hell (the deadlands of Oblivion, whatever). Don't get all whiney at me, because your precious game ruined lore.
