Hammerfell seems like the only real option. Although a Valenwood/Elsweyr/Summerset Isle trio would be awesome, or a re-release of Morrowind

Here is a map of Tamriel to use for reference

They might just bundle in High Rock with Hammerfell if thats what they choose to do

morrowind has been cleansed, there's nothing left there to make a game about.

Is that official? i haven't seen new continents

Those aren't new, they've been discussed a lot in in-game lore but we've never seen anything because every game has taken place in tamriel. atmora is home of the humans, it's uninhabitable. elves come from aldmeris. redguards come from yokuda. akavir is full of snake people and cat people (not khajiit) and monkey people and someone else too I think.

What I want to know is why it takes 2 weeks of gametime to get from one side of Hammerfell to the other when you play Daggerfall, but it only takes 20-30 minutes to get from one side of Skyrim to the other

Maybe people in Skyrim are just 100x the size of people in Hammerfell, so the continent is to scale after all. Same with Morrowind and Cyrodil

maks

because daggerfall's scenery was randomly generated and it would take them a thousand years to put skyrim's level of depth and complexity on that large of a scale. there's a morrowind mod project called 'tamriel reconstructed' where they try to recreate the whole continent, they started it when morrowind was released and are still working on it like 15 years later

on the contrary daggerfall kicked ass,
i'd be playing it right now but i can't seem to get this damn ms dos emulator to cooperate
i managed to get Daggerfall installed, but when i try to run it i just get an unexplained error in the emulator's command prompt

dosbox? if not, use dosbox. if so, someone probably posted a config specifically for daggerfall somewhere on the internet.

yeah its DOSbox and its pissing me off, i'm following the read-me instructions to the letter but either there was major updates to the emulator or the daggerfall package since the readme was written

GODDAMIT plug drugs stop talking about elder rims or some useless shit LET'S TALK DRUGS i once mixxed oxy with codeine and drank some whisky fuck

codeine is pretty weak, and it has a ceiling dose (a dose that once you reach, taking more won't do anything). I'm confident I could take a ceiling dose of codeine right now and not feel a thing - its approximately 400mg of codeine

The reason it has a ceiling dose is because codeine itself is inactive as an opiate, it has to be metabolized into morphine in the liver in order to have any effects, and your liver only has so much of the enzyme which metabolizes it into morphine

ive had oxy with vodka a few times before, nothing I couldn't handle.
The only opiate that truly scares me to mix with other downers is methadone. If you drink one beer while on methadone, you can feel your blood pressure just drop instantly and it becomes hard to stand up or even breathe

someone should write a mod that puts the addiction effect back in the game and adds a rehab center in one of the podunk towns like dawnstar or something, or a methadone clinic where you can buy maintenance doses of moon sugar

what was your favorite town in each of the elder scrolls games since morrowind?
Morrowind: Balmora was the coolest town; vivec always confused me
Oblivion: Anvil
Skyrim: Markarth

maks
02-28-2012, 10:31 AM
favorite for me doesn't mean coolest, but most convenient (shops and services all together in one section of town, preferably near an ownable house)

morrowind: also balmora I think but it's been a very long time
oblivion: imperial city
skyrim: whiterun

a glitch left a bad taste in my mouth regarding markarth, even though I finished the cidhna mine quest the guards still try to throw me in there so I always have to fight my way across the city just to sell off my crap
