The other part of that is that Bethesda Softworks is the publisher for all of those games.

Bethesda Game Studios, the company that actually made the The Elder Scrolls games and Fallout 3, is not the same as Bethesda Softworks. Bethesda Softworks is the parent company of Bethesda Game Studios, and is again owned by ZeniMax Media. Bethesda Softworks are publishing The Elder Scrolls Online, which is being made by ZeniMax Online Studios, which is a daughter company of ZeniMax Media.

I never said Softworks made them, but that it published the games. You'll notice earlier that I mentioned Bethesda Game Studios made the Elder Scrolls and Fallout 3.

I was commenting more on the inadequacies of Snalin's diagram.  Our company's structure is really damn confusing.  As far as liaisons go, there's definitely a lot of communication about lore.  I played soccer with Pete Hines once; that guy is fast.

Restarted this this weekend, as a Nightblade-ish character.  Upped the difficulty, too.  Hopefully I'll get to see another side of the game.

I also restarted the game over the weekend, this time with a Nord Sorcerer/Necromancer. She was level 2 going into Bleak Falls Barrow, level 7 when I got out. Conjuration leapt up 15 points. The Magic-heavy characters are ridiculously overpowered, especially if you give them the Thalmor armour early on.

My first playthrough was conjuration and I really enjoyed it.  It felt natural - armor and sword for easy stuff, break out the magic for the tough stuff.

Playing now as stealth/archer on higher difficulty.  The eye in the centre is cheese, but at the same time some elements of stealth are suprisingly well done.

If the eye annoys you, get a mod. I played everything exept mage (I don't like it)
On my stealth run, I found a mod that makes the eye move to just below the compass. I also found mods that enhance sneaking, like less chance to be found when hiding in shadows, more sneak noise when closer to enemies, etc.

I loved playing stealthy. It made me sad that I could barely use my daggers. When playing stealthy bow and arrow are incredibly powerful.

Somehow I like stealthy characters. When given the choice I'll most likely choose the Rogue/Assassin/whatever it may be called. My favourite guild in MTG's Ravnica is the House Dimir.

I tried that with a new character I started recently. Stealthy, backstabbing, magicky Dark Elf. On a whim, I installed a bunch of additional mods, but it never seems enough. When I started looking for magic overhaul mods I realised that the Skyrim that I could play was never going to be close enough to the Skyrim I wanted to play. So instead of playing Skyrim with Dishonored powers, I just went back and played Dishonored again.

Daggers are hugely underpowered. The only way to get some power out of them is to get the backstabbing perk, which powers them up x15. But that's a level 50 sneak skill, and requires three other perks. Bow and arrow are way more powerfull, considering that crossbows get more power (200+) and use the same stealth techniques. With fully upgrades bow and arrows, with Archery at 100, and sneak at 100, and the Deadly Aim perk (sneak attacks with bows x3), I could kill a Dragon with one shot

I was a little disappointed yesterday.

First off, there were TWO dragons, but the cowards didn't fight for my amusements.

Then the one I was fighting *ran away* and decided a nearby giant looked like easier prey.  :facepalm:

I almost let the giant walk away as a sort of 'hey good job killing the dragon' but then I was all 'BUT IT WAS MY DRAGON DAMNIT'
p.s. holy shit guys Drelas is kind of a badass.. Weird that he has nothing to do with anything.

I think Morroblivion didn't get as much traction because the Oblivion engine simply wasn't that impressive. The Skywind project is hosted at morroblivion.com, but last time I checked, the team had 70 members, and they're further along than I think Morroblivion ever was.

Now, the really interesting thing would be if they could port Tamriel rebuilt. Of course, the rebuilt project would probably have to get a shine up, since stuff in the Skyrim engine needs a lot more clutter than stuff in the Morrowind engine did (see the official development video), but the promise of all of Morrowind in an actual game would be great.

Urm, for the uninitiated, Morrowind the game contained about half of Morrowind the province. Check this map, where Morrowind is in the north east. The Morrowind game was contained on the Vvardenfell island (plus the city of Mournhold and the island of Solstheim). Tamriel rebuilt is a Morrowind mod that seeks to make the entire province of Morrowind into a playable game area, fully built out with quests and all of that good stuff. They're still going strong, and are done with large parts of the world.

Yeah. The old Morroblivion project tried to just... give you the Morrowind files as a part of the mod, and understandably got massively shut down by Bethesda. So they need a Morrowind install to pull the Morrowind game files from. It's $20 on Steam.

Do they have to be Steam downloads, because I could get a used disc of Skyrim for $20 and one of Morrowind for like $10.

Nope, although Skyrim requires Steam anyways. The Steam tip was just for "if you don't have Morrowind" already.

EDIT: though you would probably need a Morrowind GOTY edition - I think a Morrowind version without both Bloodmoon and Tribunal won't be supported. But why would you want a version without Bloodmoon and Tribunal?

I dunno if it was a vampire attack or bug or who knows what. But that's *my* town Talos-damnit. No one gets to kill my NPCs *but me*.

I consider Whiterun to be under my protection as well. It's a shame I wasn't around to stop that werewolf attack. Strange that it only killed Nazeem.

Which is funny, but hey. Screw 'em if they can't take a hero.

Sometimes I think I'm the only person who doesn't go on random killing sprees in games when people piss me off. Or just because. Then again, that's probably because I'm to afraid I'll do it in real life some day. Though there was that time, after about the 5000th time hearing it, I had to quick save and shoot one of those damn guards in the knee with an arrow...

My thing, I was doing them a *favor*. Just trying not to state super spoilers outright.

Mind you I totally have went on 'I wonder if I can take them all out' sprees before. Sometimes get a little frustrated with the game's immortal NPCs. Of *course* I want them to be immortal when, say, dragons try to kill them, and mortal when *I* want to kill them. So uh. Double standard?

One of the funniest things that happened to me was this:

I noticed the high elf guards marching a prisoner right outside of Whiterun, near one of the local farmhouses.  I'd opted to simply leave them alone, when out of nowhere a dragon attacked.  My companion (who was the early wizard character) and I immediately attacked said dragon, and my shout blew it into one of the guards, smashing him up against a wall and killing him.  The rest of the guards attacked me, and I defended myself and then proceeded to loot their corpses, because why the fuck not?  Well, I was pretty close to being overburdened so I fast traveled to Whiterun, and that was my mistake.

Rather than give me the chance to pay my fine they attacked.  Now I ran through the town, trying to get away from them, and not attacking anyone - but my little companion had other ideas, and he proceeded to chain lightning the shit out of everyone that saw fit to pursue me with a sword drawn.  Needless to say it did not end well for them, and the entire town was littered with dead guards (including two that chased me into my home) and people going, "Oh my!  What happened?" every time I went back there.  I have since learned not to fast travel with a fine due.

Since the Thalmor pretty much have the Empire's nuts in a vice... Still, Whiterun is pretty much neutral over the whole Stormcloak/Empire war at least in the start, so it's kinda weird. I've wound up killing that Thalmor patrol before, oddly enough just down the road at the guard tower where you first learn to Shout. I never had any guards come after me over that. I guess because you were right there at Whiterun, someone saw you? Beware the chickens... They're all stool pigeons.

Joking aside, I'd bet it's because they're flagged as non-hostile (until they inevitably decide to Inquisite you). Probably fair game once they attack, but until then...

also all this talk about being mean to elves reminds me that we used to call our old roleplaying gang back home the 'He-Man Elf Haters Club'.

I'm sorta sad that no one else appears to have used that idea on the internet much, according to a cursory Google search.

I just got the image of a midwife and a woman giving birth swinging towards each other on a trapeze - when they meet, the midwife pulls the baby out. The knife juggler is standing on the floor and cuts the umbilical cord with a a knifethrow.

No sense crying over dead elves, especially if there's more of them around to kill off.

I blame D&D for my innate hatred of elves. It's not your fault Ali, and as you know I have bits and pieces of a high elf army, but I cannot stand those annoying Mary Sue magnets for the most part.
