You think that's rude?!
They say
The Iliac Bay
Is the place to barrel around
Without a bit of apparel on,
As advertised in that carol song
A tune that's sung as the west wind blows
About it lovely not wearing any clothes.
Ladies singing high notes, men singing lows,
Implying that the most luscious depravity
And complete absence of serious gravity
Can only be found in the waterous cavity
Of Iliac Bay.
If you are the type who is more a sinner than a sinned,
You'll find it all in Morrowind.
But the truth, my child,
Is that nothing more wild
That an ordinary fashion
Kind of slightly mad passion
Can be detected if at all
In Sentinel and Daggerfall.
Whatever your odd needs: feathered, scaled, or finned,
You'll find it all in Morrowind
It's an invention of bards
That Bretons and Redguards
Have more than some staid fun
And suffer deviant fornication.
For the most of madness, not the least,
The wise debaucher heads out east.
Where your once steely reserve is now merely tinned,
You'll find it all in Morrowind.
In Morrowind,
There is sin.
But, pray, do not confuse Dunmer variety
With that found in tepid Western society
Compared to which, it nearly is piety.
It isn't terribly ingenious calling it prudery
Observing the Dark Elf aversion to nudity.
After all, the preferred sort of lewdity
In these parts is far more pernicious.
From the Ashlanders to the wettest fishes
You'll find pleasure and pain quite delicious
In Morrowind.
If you find yourself with unkind kinship with your kin
You'll find it all in Morrowind.

This isn't so rude. In fact, it's less of a rude song.

This is so last week.
So there's already been talking about the finger here? Sorry, I searched the forum but couldn't find anything.

Are we sure it's the middle finger? I can't see Bethesda doing this and releasing the pic. It would take away from their sales on how some parents don't let their kids play games because
of this. Yes Morrowind and Oblivion is rated T or M now, but don't fool yourself, alot of sales for TES games are now for around 10 year olds as well as us old farts.

I'm sorry, but there doesn't seem to be a more rude song, but there is a regular rude song!
In the spring of the year
Doth propriety disappear
In the courts and the ports
Of the Bay.
Drinking new beer,
Everybody feels queer
And the Earls and the churls
Go astray.
The bee and the bird
Don't have to tell us a word.
Our bodies for naughties
Are prime.
If you haven't heard,
You can let yourself be lured
For the youth, for things uncouth,
It is time.
Oh, it's lovely to sit in a field, harvested into rows
It's lovelier still to do the same not wearing any clothes.
People of the Bay bless
The flowered court of Wayrest
For showing us the gentle way of sin
The bonny Dark Elf queen
Likes to see and to be seen
With cobblers, thieves,
And tavernkeeps,
And slaves, and fish-er-men.
In the court of Lainlyn,
Right upon the mainland
With six, the whole place is in a whirl.
The Baroness likes to play
With men who come her way,
While the Baron likes the little boys and girls.
Oh, it's lovely to give your lady a kiss upon her nose
It's lovelier still to do the same not wearing any clothes.
In Daggerfall, they hold a ball
And all of society indulges in a variety
Of scandal, they can handle --
A lot.
The Captain of the Guard
Has to search very hard
For a bean that the Queen Has in her pants.
And the Court Sorceress
Will grant you a wish
To cause the King to fling
About his lance.
Oh, it's lovely to give your love a single perfect rose
It's lovelier still to do the same not wearing any clothes.
Oh, it's lovely to abandon all your cares and fears and woes
It's lovelier still to do the same not wearing any clothes.
Yes sir, it's lovely not wear any clothes!

Personally, I feel the warrior is actually doing a motion with his index finger, beckoning his opponent.

I'm sorry, but there doesn't seem to be a more rude song, but there is a regular rude song!
What about th-GOD DAMNIT NINJA'D! :stare:
I guess I'll just have to do some standup improv:
"This orchard has sentimental value to me," said Mojhad, the Khajiit, to his friend, Hasillid. "Under that tree, for example, is where I first made love. And that tree, is where her mother stood, watching us."
"She watched you while you made love to her daughter?" said Hasillid, clearly impressed. "Didn't she say anything?"
"Meow."
"How is your wife," asked Zalither. "She's in bed with laryngitis," replied Harlyth. "Is that Argonian bastard back in town again?"
A Dark Elf woman was being shown around Daggerfall. When she was shown the magnificent Castle Daggerfall, she smiled sweetly to her guild and whispered, "It reminds me of six."
"That's odd," said her guild. "Why does our Castle Daggerfall remind you of six?"
The Dark Elf sighed, "Everything does."

"Meow."

I find it rather stupid.
It does not fit TES at all imo.

Maybe its a Nordic gesture for welcoming, anything can fit in TES if Bethesda makes it so.

It could be the traditional sign to ward off demons...
Or is that too discworld?

If Discworld could parody WoW back in the 80s despite that being ontologically impossible, TES can just go nuts with the in-jokes for all I care.

This is a 13+ forums. The finger is inappropriate for the forums.
...for a Mature rated game series. What the hell make you think that a kid on here seeing an extended middle finger is any more inappropriate than the same kid playing the games?
awesome concept art, by the way. I like knowing that some people have fun at work.

It doesn't matter what rating Bethesda's games are. The forums are 13+. Read the rules.
He was joking, anyway.

No, flipping people off in that specific way doesn't fit TES.
Just voicing my opinion.
Intarwebs, srs bssns!

Agreed. Hated things like the loveletter being canon for just this reason. Using swear words in modern real world context feels ridiculously out of place.

This is a 13+ forums. The finger is inappropriate for the forums.
The finger is immature, real men say it with words. So it fits just fine
Kids hear worse things at school than they would ever see in a video game, art or these forums. Which is one of the reasons I say no to censorship, it does no good imo(parenting is a bigger issue)That aside. I wouldn't mind if TES became more "rude" I don't agree with nudity in the game, but swearing and more realistic drinking wouldn't bother me at all. Definitely not a necessity, but it would fits fine with Skyrim because Skyrim has a somewhat darker, much less children's fantasy book like, theme.

What kind of school exposes children to decapitated heads, torture chambers, demonic invasion and the like? o_O

Daggerfall has a topless woman in it. I doubt a middle finger is much compared to that.
