Most of that was originally written in 2011. Lady Nerevar seems to be the one who added the connection between KINMUNE and Queen Ayrenn. If the rumor is true, they certainly didn't turn him away because they don't respect his work. After all, they've taken ideas from his writings just like Bethesda.

Just found this. I don't know enough about the cosmology to nitpick, but I'm sure there are problems. It's cool, though. I'm a little miffed that the flat plane is reserved for the "crazy" prince, but at least one of them got it right.

Why is the left side or Nirn and the other bodies lit up when the sun is on the right side?

Can we complain about TESO's lore now? Everyone just blurt out anything you see that contradicts the lore.

Altmeri cities are now all Rivendell.

Half of the world is inaccessible!

Mountains blocking the way where there aren't supposed to be any mountains.

It's interesting that nobody has ever mentioned or mapped the enormous volcanoes that are now all over the Morrowind mainland.

Leyawiin and Bravil don't exist.

Maybe you just can't go there. Can you go to Anvil?

Saddam Hussein · « **Reply #709 on:** August 01, 2014, 01:48:31 AM »

I dun goofed. Southwestern and southeastern Cyrodiil aren't available to explore, so Leyawiin and Anvil naturally wouldn't be on the map. Bravil is the spot that's symbolized on the map, but when you get there, there's just a bunch of walls and buildings with no doors. Certainly no people.

It's very strange. It doesn't even pop up as "BRAVIL DISCOVERED" or anything, but at the same time, the text in the upper right-hand corner that tells you your location does label it as Bravil, so we know that that's what it's supposed to be.

I think there are two buildings outside the city walls in Oblivion. The stables, and a skooma den (I think) a bit further away. Looks like no one is home by the time of TESO, and the city is in lockdown maybe?

That's weird

I just realized that the name Vivec's Antlers is a reference to MK. On the internet, he usually goes by the name Merry Eyesore the Elk, or just The Elk. And, of course, Vivec is his baby.

Reading the ESO forums is agonizing, because I can't make an account to correct any of the dumb things. You need an "invitation code" to register, and apparently buying the game doesn't warrant the receipt of an invitation code. Does anybody know anything about that? Anyway, it's mostly stuff like this:

Sorry mate but who "wrote" the lore?

Because the majority of the Lore in the Imperial Library, is written by the fan base. Not by the person who created the ES lore.

When we delve more into Lores, Cannons and "Bibles" we look at the tree and miss the forest.

Enjoy the game for what it is. After all what you perceive as "Lore" is not written yet. in TESO era.

Also, "OT" is probably the most worthless abbreviation ever. People use it to mean both on topic and off topic.

They should have emailed you an invitation code. Also, on the subject of the thread you're quoting from:

I don't understand his first point. He goes on and on about Alduin's Wall, and eventually concludes with "and that's why the Soulburst couldn't happen." What?

I have now completed the Fighters Guild and Mages Guild questlines. They were pretty good, if perhaps a bit short. And I am dissapoint that there's no Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood. BAAAWWWWW!!!!!

They're so sneaky that you haven't found them yet.

I've checked all my emails from ZOS. Nothing. Fortunately Lady Neravar addressed the post that was bothering me.

That guy is just autistic. I barely skimmed his OP. Looks like he just copied a bunch of stuff from wikis.

This may not be representative of the player base, but ugh. What kind of ES fans play the game in third person!
