    Every time I play an Elder Scrolls game, I do my first playthrough with a Dunmer. Something about it feels right to me. Maybe its the fact that they are typically so reclusive and self-interested, that it feels like a big deal to have a Dunmer involved in world affairs around Tamriel.
    Imagine the Dragonborn, a Dunmer, ancient enemies of the Nords, but in a funny twist of fate, a Dunmer becomes their savior. Same with the Champion of Cyrodiil: a Dunmer, who typically hate the empire, helping to save it. Can you imagine, if the next game is set in Hammerfell, a Dunmer, in the western lands dominated by men, where it is probably so rare to see a Dunmer, becomes the champion; becomes one with the deserts and the people of Hammerfell. Something about that just feels right to me.

      I've done this in each game but as a nord and I always named him Beowulf lol. I started out doing it because I liked the stats they had in oblivion but the more I got into the lore, they more I started doing it for RP reasons.
      In Oblivion my RP for Beowulf was that he was a modern "Dragon of the North" sent to protected the empire built by a previous Dragon.
      Morrowind was a little harder to RP but I basically used a reverse scenario of your Dragonborn point. It seems like poetic justice to me that a culture as xenophobic as the Dunmer would have their greatest hero reborn as a member of their ancient enemy, sent to save them and their land and cast down the false gods.
      I do like the Dunmer alot though. If my go to for mannish races are Nord, Dunmer would have to be my choice for mer. They just have a uniqueness about them and so much lore that makes their culture look badass.

      @Dimitri Telvanni I only played a little bit of ESO around the time that they came out with the Imperial City DLC So I never really got to play around on 2nd era Vvardefell and hear it lol. I mainly played in the Ebonheart pact areas and the only time I recall any similar dialogue was for a few micro quests with the smaller tribes in Deshaan, which made sense.
      I think they kind of limit you in a sense when you're most usually an outsider coming in in these games (it doesn't really apply in Arena and it's not really a focus in Oblivion since Cyrodiil is so multicultural in the 3rd era) but I think it limits you less than if you're from the province, for game mechanic reasons with people being willing to explain things to you about local customs and cultural lore. Maybe they can remedy that in future games by giving you an option of "hey, I'm this race, but I'm actually from this place". That might unnecessarily over complicate the character creation though.

    I just realized that I picture Red Mountain (from a lore perspective, not in game depiction) as a massive shield volcano along the lines of Olympus Mons on Mars. Which would make the eruption a cataclysmic event comparable to something like the hypothetical "Cascadia Event" where supervolcanoes like Yellowstone detonate and set off a chain reaction all along the North American west coast from Mexico through parts of Canada.

    When I was a child I watched my brother player Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion, much later in my early teens I played Skyrim for the first time and knew that these games were related. My first ever character was a Dunmer or Dark Elf, I choose it for the look and the dark appeal I had back then. I began to play and I found a love of gaming. I started playing Oblivion before I dove too far into Skyrim and just about every character I've made has been a Dunmer. Even into ESO which like most of us I started during the pandemic gave me a much deeper love for the race

      I mean they're called the good daedra for a reason. And it's also kinda like how people in actual history have used slavery for forever. It's hard for them to see it as bad because it's just a part of their culture. And they kinda have some good reasons for their xenophobia. It's kinda like how like indegionous people could be xenophobic towards others for the long history of hatred towards them.

    I am currently at work but on my lunchbreak and watching this is a great way to refresh myslef for the rest of my shift.
    It always bugged me that Vivec who is a hermaphrodite is not the anticipation of Boeitheia who is sometimes man and sometimes woman. Its the obvious choice instead of Mephala who is female.

    • @hollyfindlay4051
      @hollyfindlay4051 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      That's a good point. I think the reason they chose it this way is because of temperament. Vivec is nothing like Boethiah, and arguably more like Mephala. Just a possible reason, though.

    It’s interesting that the actions of the Nerevarine in The Elder Scrolls III ultimately doom the Dunmer to centuries of chaos and disaster.

    • @Honor_and_Steel
      @Honor_and_Steel ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's ironic in the way only the Daedric Princes can be. Considering they had their golden age after they were "cursed" and basically didn't seem to care too much. It seems that the real punishment was yet to come, and could only be brought about by Azura's prophesied hero. It's poetically fitting that their punishment be equal to their former grandeur.
