I was wondering if we will ever see “Oozes” included in ESO bestiary? Can lore support such creatures? What dungeon isn’t complete without Oozes? It would be really cool to see unusual predators roaming dungeon halls or dark caverns, swallowing up other players. My favorite example is the Gelatinous Cube from Dungeons & Dragons. Thoughts?

well ES has sloads and I suppose they could be in, but its not really oozes

They can put anything in the game they want. Nirn is a big place and we've yet to see most of it.

Can't say I ever thought someone would want to see a stock D&D monster. If they were in the game, you'd probably find them near the sloads.

Having second edition flashbacks.

Unfortunately, they don't exist in the ES universe.

There are plenty of creatures in TES lore, and there's plenty of room to imagine new ones (after all, there are plenty of undiscovered species on our own planet, it's not so far fetched as to imagine that Nirn has similarly zoological unknown - or at least unrecorded so far - depths).

But if I saw a glob of dungeon/sewer goo labeled as 'ooze' I would be sorely disappointed and view it as a lack of imagination on the part of the developers.

I have no issue with new types of monster/enemy/mob, but this is TES and they need to imaginative, perhaps a bit whacky (however seriously we take TES lore, it has always had a touch of surreal humour), and somehow link back to and make sense in respect to existing TES lore and its known ecosystems - and to be distinct from creatures in other fantasy universes.

edit: nevermind, didn't realize you meant slimes.

I remember reading an ingame book about an expedition into black marsh that mentioned some sort of giant slime creature but it didn't sound like your typical pushover slime.
