We did Elder Scrolls tier lists on Discord so I figured I'd share my terrible opinion on here.
Honestly, Morrowind could probably drop down one slot, but I'm too nostalgic for it. I think each game does something different really well. I don't think there's a "best" TES game.
Okay time to do a proper #intro post with tags because it’s cozy here and I’m so stoked to have a fannish home base that feels properly homey. I’m a #softwareEngineer by day. In #fandom spaces I sometimes write #fanfic and much more frequently act as an enthusiastic #beta (if you need one I might be able to help!). I’ve spent time in #ElderScrolls, #RustyQuillGaming, #VentureBros, #BlackSails, and many more fandoms. I love #DIY, talking about #writingTools, and breaking my computers. Hi!
Morrowind is a genuine treasure. One of the high achievements of human creativity. If it were a painting it'd be in a public Gallery.
I'll be talking about this soon as I'm into my first proper playthrough in a few years. But here's a great primer on exactly what makes this unique creation so very special.
There is this rumor going around that there is going to be a remake of The #ElderScrolls 4: Oblivion.
But the rumor also claims that this remake is going to be done with #Unreal 5, which is the part where I call "bullshit".
I mean, while outsourcing game development is not unprecedented for Bethesda (see Fallout: New Vegas), the Creation Engine and its modability is a huge part of the popularity of these games. So why would they use the Unreal Engine instead of a more modern version of the Creation Engine (such as the one they are using for #Starfield )?
So as a #GamePass subscriber I was going to wait for #Starfield, although a huge fan of the #ElderScrolls and moderate fan of #Fallout, I wasn't really looking forward to Starfield, but I got the Premium Upgrade pass a couple of days ago to play it early.
Actually surprised how solid it seems to be on launch. If the same holds true for the Elder Scrolls VI we should be in a good place!
I'm a retired novelist who adores story-driven games (PC, PS5, Xbox) and roleplay. You can find several of my social gaming handles in my bio. I founded and help run a roleplay guild in #WowClassic, and I post a lot of stuff about my current playthroughs of various games including:
Je ne sais pas si vous vous souvenez de l'époque où, selon la rumeur, #Bethesda préparait une nouvelle licence plus futuriste que #Fallout mais moins que les #ElderScrolls censée faire le lien entre les deux univers ?
On avait tous rigolé à l'époque mais maintenant qu'on sait que leur prochain jeu est #Starfield je me demande à quel point cette idée saugrenue a vraiment existé, même le temps d'un brainstorm, chez Bethesda...

This rare armor set guarantees you’ll only face lunatics in battle, since no one in their right mind would fight someone decked out in the skin of an actual dragon.
