I'm sure you do think tolkein inspired elves in TES is boring and derivative, but zenimax isn't marketing the game chiefly for lore-minded fans like yourself.
and failing pretty miserable
TES fans are sparter than the marketing division at zenimax
If they really think that all fans will go out and buy everything iwth the TES name stamped on it they are wrong
You either have to be blind or incredivle naive to believe that this will be the ultimate TES game we all been waiting for
and game trailers what was the last game trailer that really looked like how the actual game looks like
-
its is not the dunmer alone you know that both beast races just look not right in ESO
some how i am convinced zenimax doesn't care in order to keep production costs low or because they do not have the skills and expertise to change all those licensed programs they bought
-
To be fair, the Dawnguard characters in question are exceptions, not the rule. They're immortal beings who've sold their souls to a Daedric Prince. The fact that they could pre-date the Empire is certainly feasible.
i wasn' t talking about the vampires

Ok, So after a weekend of rockin ESO BETA. I have to wonder how the 2 companies (Beth and Zenimax) could be owned by the same mother and have such radically different engines. Without saying too much, the ESO engine is vastly superior. Now, I am not familiar with how engines actually work at the technical level but I do know that Skyrim with good graphics and steady frames takes much effort and attention upon having a good to great gpu. ESO on the other hand has good to great graphics considering and frames are steady beyond belief even in the 30 fps range. I am aware of my NDA and am keen to retain my BETA standing and the element of surprise for those who haven't played yet. I however cant help but be disappointed in skyrims limits. ESO is so smooth with graphics that match the wants and capabilities of current gamers while allowing the low end rigs to play as well.
J
the ESO engine is a upgraded version of the old Dark age of camelot MMO and certainly not new nor superior
the DAOC is pretty limited and does not allow for any extensive sandbox gameplay or serous expansions , one of the major downfalls of that old mmo
all rgz other game mechanics you see been used in other mmos before , including the combat andf magic system
if you expected a multi player version of the TES series like zenimax so like to advertise people will be very disapointed and for the exêrienced MMO players among us , it offers nothing new or exsiting just looks like another WoW clone with better graphics
12 mil + coîes pf skyrim sod now that would be a great target audience for a mmo , but no wthey want WoW subscriptions so they made another medioroc WoW clone like there are 2 dozen other already available
indeed the graphics look good for this kind of mmo but i was spoiled with my own enb and found them pretty dullafter a while
the whole combat and magic still feels clunky and unwielding
and still nothing been done to make the so called exploration ( in all honesty its a big joke ) more fluid and tmmersve
pvp is still laughable with rewards / penalties so neglibe you wonder why its there for
all i saw was another themepark where the developers constantly need to hold their customers hands in order to keep them active

i m not so much worried about where and what TES VI is all about
i am serious worried bethesda is going to leave the pc players even more in the cold in favour for the consle users than they did with skyrim
because in all honesty the vanilla version of this game is actually a very medioric game buggy , full of glitches , simplifierd and in somepkaces empty because of the limitations of current and next generation consoles
while i certainly do not want to start a console / pc debate
consoles are great for platform games and FPS games and other kiddies games
I am worried that bethesda will eventually concentrate soley on the console market and leave the pc users behind
which would be very sad , indeed the majority of their profit are from console version sales , but the real succes of this franchis comes from the beauty and depth of this franchise creatated by the fans for the pc version
but as far i know never did bethesda acknowledge this fact
i dare even to say that they sometimes seems to prefer to get rid of the pc users than making their game compatible for pc
just thinking out loud on a quite morning in the office
-
and even then the age of some npc s just do not make any sense
without trying to spoil some characters in dawnguard are so ancient it is hard to make sense
-
i am just going to endorse the poster above me
he is right
last 6 months some really good ùods to improve the stability has come out
CTD and memory boost patch
the SMME patch
safety load
and others
it madfe my games much more stable even tho i have 100 plus mods
there is plenty of info you should read about modding on this site and some excellent vids on you tube

All mods with voice acting are great , just for the fact that people are actually willing to spend timen making them
the quality isn't always good , but they did it anyway and it enriches the game
a good example we all know is vilja in skyrim
her scandinavian accent just fits right into skyrim , some of comments are hillarious and i love it but the other voice actors , well just to say it sometimes sound too forced to really be immersive and her questline is sometimes more a pain in the butt than enjpyable , but they still got my appreciation for actual doing this
there some other followers mod from the with custom voices and thou it is basicly a vanilla follower in all rspect the custom voice just adds that little bit extra that makes them great
like inigo
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40960/
which is brimmiant in all aspects
and this one
www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48918/?
a pretty underrated mod but because it has a different voice than most other mods it makes it just worh it for me
just saying

It's on the Nexus, but the page says: "This mod is under moderation review". I'm not sure what that means but I'm too afraid to ask since the page point-blankly says not to contact the site staff OR the mod author about the mod.
I don't see how considering, I have not actually released the mod yet. Though it seems like there is a file with that name but it has been down for a long time and it was probably not that well known in the first place, so the name is pretty much still up for grabs. And yes I am the author to this mod (the one mentioned in this topic that is) so it is perfectly allowed for people to contact me.
Anyway yes finalCrystine aka Christine Slagman is very talented and a great person to work with. She has a professional mic setup and has a lot of knowledge about working with audio as she does music composition (using music software) and other media related stuff so the audio quality is pretty top notch. It would be silly to expect mods the scope of Interesting NPCs or Inconsequential NPCs to be able to recruit people of equal standing in terms of skill and recording equipment with such a large number of NPCs and no real incentive apart from being passionate about Skyrim and voice acting. Funnily enough Christine was actually in Interesting NPCs as Misha (the cowardly witch with a sidequest) and a few other characters I think.
is that a exsisting follower mod ?
if so i want that mod
Not quite yet. It's still in the works but you can keep track of its progress here: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/1198146-sofia-a-funny-fully-voiced-and-scripted-followerwip/
thank you
i will
some of the quotes are just hillarious and the proffesionality of the voice acting ( hope i said that right) are brilliant
best of luck both of you with this mod
-
I dont see why we cant have a little fun inbetween :smile:
true
but while waiting i will continue to play and enjoy TES IV and V modded
you can be sure the music will be a variation of the original theme music tho
-
He's got a trailer video up plus a Q & A video. I am really looking forward to the rest of this.
pics or it didn't happen
or a link
-
you really are impatient aren't you
but i am afraid we will not now yet for some time remember it took them qlmost 4 years before they even started to release details in TES V after oblivion
i wouldn't be suprised they one of these mods will be releasing some of the info on what they are actually working on now
with pc version sales of skyrim still going well for a game that is 2 years old i do not think thay are in a hurry certainly not while those clowns at zenimax are still trying to find out how to rape our beloved franchise with their ESO unthing

looking for mods with professional sounding voice actors
I think the quality of the voice acting in Interesting NPCs and inconsequential NPCs is too inconsistent
is that a exsisting follower mod ?

Cast your vote in the poll and talk about it.
BTW: STEP is no longer supporting NMM. Mod Organizer is now the officially supported mod manager.
I think MO is as revolutionary for Mods as Skyrim Memory Patch 3.0/SKSE 7.0/SSME is for stability!
+1 for Mod Organizer!
you missed a choice
no why should i change N%% does wjat it has to do why should i change
also my opion
all because some computer nerd thinks that NMM is too simple for geeks like him doesn't mean we all have to change to something what is basicly too overcomplexed for most of us
most of us want a easy and way to install mods not make installing mods a second job

This is a question I find interesting. What is the battle of the great villains of Skyrim you find most exciting, most challenging, most epic of all you've seen in the game, which gave him enough work and did work up a sweat to win this great boss? ( including all DLC )Explain why?
brynolff and the rest of the thieves guild
why the way he greets you the first time and their general atittude all of them dex vex all others bunch of big losers
( never sdone a honest day work for all that gold you are carrying '
Well WTF like they ever done a honest work
especially when you see how the TG trying to rob a poor stable boy from his hard earned money
i just Can not stad any of them nor can i stand any of the black briar family
Good thing there are mods for that

So im looking for some opinion as far as a house in skyrim
I have the Dev Avezra but of course i need a place on the ground
I have The Hearthfire Fortified Heljarchen Hall mod but i dont know weather or not to get a custom home.
the Hearthfire Fortified Heljarchen Hall mod greatly enhances the home
my reasoning is there are already buildable homes that can be enhanced, so why get a mod home,
most mod home to me dont feel like they dont belong in the landscape of skyrim
I am very much impresed with mod homes which very much suit a the level of hero that skyrim has but im more of a humble hero, i dont really feel entitled to one, im fine with hearthfire
so my question is what do you think? do like a big home whether it be castle, mansion, hidden realm, etc
OR do you like a more smaller home, one that doesnt really say HEY LOOK AT ME IM A BIG HOUSE.
If have one you like please leave a link
Thx for imput
i think that alot of the house mods are just overdone with a few exceptions
the one i love the most id the eagles nest
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34834
because it is small lore friendly and it doesn't come free and of course a great view
close enough to whiterun and riverwood and works even great with the dev azerva , if you are good at parking the bloody thing atleast
but there so many good house mods out there
what is important to me is their location , size( i prefer them smallà and lore friendliness
one i absolutely love is this one tho http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/15317

still waiting for part 2 is it there yet

I'm making this poll to compare if anything has changed since Oblivion, considering how different these games are. Oblivion with it's fancy green world and blue sky, while Skyrim is quite the opposite. So I'm thinking if Oblivion inspired people to play as a female(you know, long walks on Anvil's beautiful beach, beautiful green forrests, tons of female mods, etc.), mayby Skyrim will have a different kind of influence. It looks a lot more rough than Oblivion, not to mention way more dangerous. So, go ahead and vote and let's see what results we come up with. http://www.thenexusforums.com/public/style_emoticons/dark/smile.gif
in general it doesn't matter game wise except if you are using mods
andf the fact that most of us are male we sometimes like to play with something that looks so much better and if i may say so sexier than some unwashed dude with a beard even tho they are only pixels
i would be worried if it was the other way round

hi all
i've pretty much tried out every style a character can be in terms of fighting, from battle archer (bow+no sneak), sneak archer, one hand, 1h+shield, dual, two hand
but i just cant seem to continue a mage character long enuf. i hav better magic and forgotten magic redone along with spell crafting but i just can't find myself intrigued enough
how do other members play when playing a mage character? what kind of mods help with the immersion?
a pure mage
most important thing to know do not charge into a room shooting fireballs , you run out of magika faster than you can say fuz roh dah.and dir horrible
you might also want to have a look into several mods like balanced magi and apocalypse spell pack those the one use
second try to specialize in one field and use the others as support , tho in my opinion alteration and restoration are a must have those are the spells that will keep you alive
a follower or 2 are also a must have just keep sure you do not kill them yourself
and lastly early access to the college of winterhold is definitrly a pluspoint since that gives you acces to a few good trainers and spells
-
you have a good point sometimes the little mods to more than the game changing mods
a few of my favorites
no glowing edges
removes the white glowing edge if you cast a alteration spell
climates oof tamriel
just makes skyrim look and feel better
power of the deadra
makes deadr artifact just that little bit better without overpowering
wearable lanterns
a simple mod but something that was completely middingh from the vanilla game
deadly dragons
makes dragons the trully fearsome monsters they should be
there are plenty of others aswell but those are in my opinion the'little' mods that make a huge different
-
this is not about who is right and who is wrong
This is the empire Talos created and destroying it in the name of talos isjust wrong , on the other hand the empire can only be strong with a true dragonborn on the throne and the only true heir to the throne is your character the dragonborn
in reality both sides would be trying to hunt you down and kill you
Ulfric will try to hunt you down since you are the greatest threat to his claim of power, , the empire will hunt you downsince you are a threat to the current rulers of the empire
the Thalmor will do anything to kill you since you represent everything what they have been trying to eliminate in the last few 100 years
i smell a epic quest lue for the next TES here

Greetings, so ive been looking at countless castle and home mods out there and I have not been able to find quite what im looking for. You see im looking for a Masyaf style castle from assassins creed or a secret cave with lots of beds for my small number of followers, and by small I mean 20 or so. Thing is, I like recreating the order of assassins from assassins creed but Im having trouble finding a good “base of operations” soft of speak. I want a modest not huge castle or secret large cave with lots of beds, training dummies ect for my 20 or so assassins. I mean I want to feel like it’s a home to many and not just the dragon born, you know like being the leader or a guild and not just a lord in an abandoned palace. Im not asking for anyone to do any research but if any of you fellow modders come across such a mod please let me know. thanks
underground bathhouse maybe seems to be what you need with such huge number of followers
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/27361
for only you and 1 follower my favourite is the eagles nest tho
-
only one advice tho ; be patience , and do not forget the muffle spell it is a divine spell for any sneaky character
-
I used to play alot of the old fashion paper and dice rpg and i still do sometimes
sometims as gamemaster sometimes just as a player but what i know if I or any gamemaster came up with a scenario like dawnguard especially the quest where you find serana the players would not stand for it and would have walked out in the worse case scenario
the fact thar serana is essential is the biggest immersionkiller of the dlc
it is pretty easy to add a esecond character to replace serana if you play on the dawnguard side
one obvious that comes to my mind is dexter the mothpriest
but they didn't i think it had more to do with the limitations of consoles than with lack of imagination
TES VI
in Skyrim LE

it will never nor should it never for the sake of the TES and all its fans
TES is all about freedom to go and do what you want to do and playing in a big sandbox that can be edited to your likings
ESO is all about endless grinding levels in the same dungons over and over again so you can go and play with the big boys
