The Elder Scrolls

I am saying the fucking tourists coming in to greentext like 4cuck rapefugees about how Skyrim or Oblivion isn't an RPG are annoying and I wish the thread hadn't been featured so stupid cunts wouldn't have ruined the discussion.
Skyrim clearly isn't an RPG, unless you're some console nigger who grew up playing it during their puberty and doesn't know better. Oblivion, tho? Never heard that one, even people who absolutely despite it still admit it's an RPG. Not a good one, mind you, but it is a roleplaying game in every aspect. Maybe you should lay off those said 4chan greentexts buddy, you had to be in deep bowels of /v/ to read something like that.

Genuine question, if you hate TES games, what the fuck are you doing still shitting up the thread?

I never said I hate TES, I made it abundantly clear I do hate Bethesda however. This isn't your hugbox, I can discuss the games too even if I hate Skyrim and think Oblivion is a mediocre title, which believe it or not is not an uncommon opinion outside the Bethesda playpen for people who play real RPGs.
guys I'm trying to start my journey as a content creator on youtubr. Is it ok if I take a game that it's currently being discussed and call it slop?
Only if you can make a 12 hour video out of it
I got to fire up the courage to actually watch this one of these days. He made a 20 hour video(two parter) on Skyrim too.

Not trying to make it a hugbox, that's why I said it was a genuine question. I just haven't seen you talk about anything but the games sucking ass for the past dozen pages and figured you weren't a fan of the series. You into Daggerfall or Arena at all?

Most of these super long-format "analysis" videos feel like they're stretching for time despite providing only surface-level takes, repeating themselves for hours without meaningfully expanding on the points they raise. This Patrician guy's Elder Scrolls videos and Bread Circus' 12-hour Phantom Menace series are about the only examples of the genre I can stomach.

I haven't watched his TES videos due to their length, but his Starfield video is fantastic. It's 9 hours long but he quite literally goes over everything that game has to offer, along with critiques and everything else, and narrates over early every single hour of his dozens of hours he put into the game as he kept completing the game over and over so he can truly 100% complete it(there is a really obnoxious way to go about it that requires RNG, horrid stuff). Video is long but none of it is padding, I don't think you can make a better video on that game at this point as it wouldn't be as complete or well put together. If his Oblivion and Skyrim videos are like that, then I think I am going to enjoy them.
 
The only reason anyone dickrides Morrowind in Current Year+10 is because they're insecure about their e-penis and need to flex their nerd cred.

I'm sure it's a great game in its own right. But like New Vegas, one of my top 5 vidyas of all time, its greatness is sullied by a fanbase of insufferable arrogance and pretentiousness.

Why are Todd games so popular? Because they're fun. I know the concept of fun makes the basement dwellers snort and seethe as a slight to their delusions of superiority, but at the end of the day, people play Oblivion, Skyrim, and Fallout 3 and 4 because they had a good time with them.

>"buh buh but NOOOOOOOOOO IT'STH NOT A REAL ARGPEEGEE YOU FILFEE CASUAL!"

I don't care, you neckbeard incel faggot nerds. You are the same losers who get assmad over the difference between dragons and wyverns. I hope jocks steal your inhaler and break your glasses.

Yeah the Oblivion and Skyrim videos are very much in the same vein as the Starfield one. Morrowind video was fun as well, had it structured by character as to experience/record/discuss everything in as few playthroughs as necessary (including a run on the 360 backwards compatibility version of the xbox release just to satisfy an argument about whether the game holds up on its own or if it really is all the mods and tweaks and fan content that make it enjoyable)

All beggars are there, and they actually got unique voices, ie. can't switch between the "oh milord ahm foken dying please spare a coin" and "I picked up some good pauldrons at the armorer yesterday". Their appearances have also been tuned to actually look malnourished and sickly (bet you didn't know every beggar carried a disease) with bloodshot, baggy eyes and sunken cheeks for example.

edit: also, for those wondering - you can still cheese Oblivion gates with alchemy, acrobatics and athletics. The addition of sprint actually makes everything significantly easier. The only negative change is your character actually sinking a good amount after jumping into a body of liquid, which caught me off guard at first.

Not only that stuff but the game runs like shit too.. beyond even the original running like shit. Like "How did this ever get released in this state" kind of running like shit. Stuttering for days, especially as you move through the map. Turning down setting to min doesn't help and makes the game look like shit. And it is somehow a resource hog. Even HIGH/TOP power, modern gen hardware will have these problems.

All the SJ and woke crap also tell you everything you need to know going foreword with the series and company. I'm expecting the next game to have a slider or something in the place of binary sex.

Nexus has been totally compromised for a long time.. Remember what they did with spiderman mods that removed pride flags everywhere? Or the fact that they regularly "respect" legally bogus takedown requests from pubs when it involves nude, sexy or original outfit like mods and no others. And continually do other lesser crap. The whole modding scene has... so much for that "don't worry, mods will fix anything" bullshit. Just like "lol japan is safe, no need to worry" and all the other common excuses not to act or fight back.

The screenshot is hilarious. Once again.. troons, <0.5% of the population everywhere, dictating to us how we are allowed to live and think. Claiming "erasure" of their personhood/humanity if we don't give them their 100% way at all times. Playing the old "how does this bother you" in the same breath they claim life and death. I love that things are swinging back hard.. not nearly hard enough for me yet though.

The Creation Club DLC for Skyrim steam storepage has a bunch of people bitching and moaning about the $20 pricetag and saying the only justification for purchasing it is that other mods depend on it.

Is there a way to filter out mods that rely on the CC on the nexus page or will I just have to check mod by mod?
 
lmfao
Bethesda sisters, we lost another one!
Good on you for getting your money back, tho. Thanks for the video, I will see if 4/8chan might have something useful as far as modding guides go, since I sure won't find anything useful here, but the video you linked might be a good start.
I was never a really big fan of Bethesda. The amount of time I spent playing any TES game after Morrowind is rather small.

Exclude the tag "Creation Club Content" when you're searching, that should filter most of it out. Fair warning, I'm not sure if this includes mods that rely on the free CC that came with AE or not, but there aren't many mods that need it to begin with.
 
330K is the bare minimum it has to meet for it not to be a colossal flop, as this is the peak numbers Starfield had on Steam
Come on. Starfield was a game made for hundreds of millions of dollars over a decade. Oblivion Remaster was probably much cheaper and quicker as the core game was already made. And Steam numbers don't include PS5 sales, Xbox sales, Windows store sales, Game Pass subscriptions, etc., which added up would be significant.

The game is undoubtedly a success. And Bethesda will continue doing the same asset flips for all their old titles as it's easy money.
 
Newfags need to get one shot by a cliff racer scoring a critical hit on them because they neglected to level up in the seyda neen slaver dungeon before getting on the flea to Bal Mora.

This is universal law. The game is working as intended. "Oh sorry, did you expect a hand hold?! Does baby zoomer need to be told to go into the slavery cave and given a structured quest first?"

No. The children need to learn. Us old fags didn't need the computer to tell us what to do. It builds character.
i yearn to watch zoomie streamers struggle to read a map and use a compass, you do not know how much I agree with you

Acting like those N'wahs would even be able to continue playing after they receive a proper greeting from the locals. Skyrim and Bethesda did the Dunmer dirty after Morrowind as they know doubt knew that just like New Vegas they would never be able to top their magnum opus and destroyed it while forcing the Dunmer to be mere underlings to the Nords.
