      even Oblivion was a mistake IMO. technical limitations mean they're never going to make a real big city since they'd rather go for graphical fidelity over scale (for the promotional screenshots you see), Morrowind had the small towns make sense and fit in with the theme of the game but Oblivion was meant to be set in the capital of the world and Skyrim in the oldest human cities so the disparity is really jarring

    • @HappyBeezerStudios
      @HappyBeezerStudios 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Or if it happens, let it be deserved.
      Not just by being the only person in the faction who does more than sitting and eating bread. Not just by being the only one left alive.
      No, give us real meaningful progress that has to be earned.
      And if we become leader, let us do something with that. Don't just end the questline there. Give us options on how to operate the faction.
      But the idea that someone becomes leader who has none of the requires skills is funny. You just fraud your way to arch mage :D

    actually i think its intentional that you can do this quest line without any magicka because you never really have to cast any spells. its meant to show how messed up the mages guild is at this period in time re: the necromancy. thats my thought anyway

    • @HappyBeezerStudios
      @HappyBeezerStudios 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Just think about the recommendation quests.
      Each local guild leader basically asks you to do them a personal favour. The members keep playing pranks on each other like children.
      But then, the college of Winterhold in Skyrim is basically just a bunch of people pretending to be a formal institution. They do anything but their job.
      There is a guy who dwemers himself with keening. Then the apprentices who died out in the world due to lack of any oversight. The guy who turned himself into a floating ball of light. The daedric hand underneath that caused the death of four apprentices. People openly saying they want the arch mage replaced. A fence for the thieves guild. Tasks to repeatedly summon a daedra and bully him into getting you a sigil stone (those things that open oblivion gates!!!) Tasks to cut scales from a dragon.
      Almost as if they want everyone gone.

    • @ThatsCoolDude

      You probably won't be able to save the emperor, but making friends with the emperor's assassin right after he murders him while also making Baurus not attack him sounds like the ultimate power move. I think the questline will be stuck tho...

Skooma is much heavier than colovian whine and knowing people with skooma addiction that self report could likely be covering fo what is in truth as high as 6 bottles of skooma if not more per day. Please seek help at your local Alcoholics Anonymous, you're not the only one and you too can be saved from this terrible addiction when you acknowledge that your addiction is a curse from the deadra 'Sanguine' and only the total surrender of your will to 'Talos' can save you.
