Matth85 Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 "real troll" ... am I the only one laughing a little inside? I meant no disrespect, and I agree. Some big bulky trolls, like the one in Fable, could be neat. Just because I'd love to walk on a small hill, ad sudently it rises up and starts chasing me.

Bernhardewers Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 (edited) Personally, I'd love to see Icelandic trolls, particularly the flourish that Brian Pilkington puts on them.Nice ive never seen those before, its kind of the same concept as swedish trolls with big noses and such "real troll" ... am I the only one laughing a little inside?haha yes your right maybe not the best rubric Edited December 1, 2011 by Bernhardewers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aokami Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 TES Trolls has always beeing some sort of Three-eyed Carnivorious Gorillas. Check Oblivion... Yeah, they aren't drawing everything from nordic/swedish/whatever, because otherwise, the game would be called "Viking" or "How to Train Your Dragon".The Elder Scrolls DOES have it's own lore, you know. Always going back to the lore... 'what if the lore has gaps... what if it feels inconsistent at times...' dont start thinking yourself... at certain rare places trolls would be most exquisit... the taste of more beasts and certain rare monsters...diversity of fighting tactics... savior the taste of blood...

noahwig Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 I totally agree with you! And John Bauer trolls would have been very interesting to see in this game! I understand you who says that oblivion has its own fantasy and it does but, they really looks like retarded monkeys with three eyes almost directly taken from the real world gorillas and they call those ''trolls'' I think they have done a great job on the giants, but it should have been really nice if somebody modded in these trolls as well. They don't have to be as tall and big as giant's. Here is some more pics from John Bauer and The Swedish roleplaygame Trudvang trolls: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I'd kill to have the trolls from the Fable games somehow incorporated into a mod, however, the way the top post was phrased, it made it seem like the developers had made a mistake on their part or something; As if they had stated "We're going to have NORDIC trolls! And that's the way it's gonna be!", and yet they didn't deliver. I'm perfectly A-Okay with lore-breaking things, it's just the kind of "reparative" phrasing that makes my teeth itch. "Oh, the game draws from Nordic mythology; But they made the trolls wrong!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oh, the game draws from Nordic mythology; But they made the trolls wrong!"Yes let me make this clear, i did not mean that way and therefore the rubric is wrong (there seems to be no way to change it now though) i meen more like this is my opinion but trolls does not exist so of course its your personal opinion how they look Edited December 1, 2011 by Bernhardewers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melissia Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 (edited) How about just making a new monster called an Elder Troll or Night Haunter, and keeping the old trolls in as lesser variants? Edited December 4, 2011 by Melissia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
