I think it might be fun to tell your favorite story from TES series.

I was a total noob coming into Morrowind, I had no idea what I was doing and with Morrowinds learning curve it took me awhile to get situated in the game. I wandered aimlessly around Balmorra trying to find Caius Cosades' house. It seriously took me forever! I joined the Thieves Guild, the Fighters Guild and House Hiallu wandering around the world doing random things for quite awhile. I had a Chitin Bow, Chitin Arrows and Chitin armor for the longest time. The most defining moment of that first game was when I decided to explore north of Balmorra and I ended up finding Caldera (At this time I had no idea that you could fast travel through the mages guild) and I found Verick Gemain's trade house. It had a steel bow and silver arrows and Veloths Robe. That seriously changed my game from then on. I could finally kill things and survive for awhile. Eventually I got my bearings and got the game pretty well figured out, and it quickly became my favorite game ever.

Anyway, its my favorite story because I was such a noobie and finding a new town some decent equipment for my low level really changed things around :) It was a moment of discovery that showed me how big and free Morrowind was.

Wouldn't this be better suited to the ES series discussion? :mellow:

Lets put this on Skyrims track.


I hope that same sense of discovery makes it into Skyrim.


I hope that a change of gear could be immensly drastic as it was in morrowind, Oblivion there wasnt much different beyond the texture and meshes.


I hope that I get curb stomped for not paying attention to the manual and even worse not being prepared trying to kill a ancestor ghost with a steel knife, didnt work too well..

Just like you I hope I come across one area balmora esq in that so much could be done, and then all of a sudden oh look another city :o


I hope I get the same OH SHI moment as I thought to get a better view of the water, getting my feet wet and getting beset on some ravanous slaughterfish, that took me 10 secs to realize I was being attacked.

I hope in that experience, I get brave as I did in morrowind and go diving for wrecks and make escapades into the wrecks obtaining gear and potions that give me a significant boost once more.



I hope Skyrim Evokes the same feeling of Oh yes even more so that morrowind and Oblivion's surises and sunsets :P
