The Elder Scrolls

[KnightoftheWind]

The goal is to appease the lore fans and the normies who don't care about lore. The plot needs to be entertaining enough at face value and deep enough to be rewarding.

I don't watch youtube elder scrolls lore videos because I'm not a ******

Well dont think there was much worthwile anyway after Morrowind. No lessons of vivec style lore at least. Also havent seen these books in skyrim I think, odd.

Oblivion and even Skyrim had some great lore contributions and the lessons of troonvec are extremely overrated.

TES is dead and left no successor. The throne is empty.

"Tainted Grail enters the chat"

That game blew so ******* hard. It completely sucked. Combat was generic and boring, animations were subpar and third person was even worse. Your character is literally only moving his arms when attacking. Story sucked too and King Arthur was the only good part of that godforsaken polack rape of the Arthurian Legend. Women everywhere. Women Commanders, Lieutenants, Tribe Leaders, Making Percival a title that gets passed and ofcourse it is a woman when we meet Percival. Sidequests ranged from ******** to ******** polack humor. The only good thing about the game was the main menu music.

Really? This is the successor of TES? Nah,****** I'd rather that the Throne is vacant and destroyed. I'd rather go play Battlespire than play ******* Taint Grail, better yet play ESO and do the ******* Ithelia Questlines.

The lessons of troonvec were there to give dunmer mythology and strangeness, and they did their job. I don't care what lorefags do with it, I know how to read, but there should be books like that in every TES game. I don't know what skyrim's equivalent was. The Song of Pelinal was great, I like the cyrodilic Aeneid thing.

Bethesda doesn't use the unreliable narrator much anymore. That's probably why the lore is shallow and boring.

Not that it matters anyway. It's window dressing, and can't make a good game bad, but also can't make a bad game good.

Hard to blame them since you had autists missing the point and trying to shoehorn all the lore to be true before.

That wasn't something devs needed to consider. Its all fluff for filling in where story, mechanics, and graphics couldn't. A major part of the fun was bombing their lore forum with batshit and false interpretations of canon. The lore forum larps were cool.

The problem is that something which was implicit(many writers writing without verifying or cross-referencing resulted in an unreliable narrator) became explicit (writing with "unreliable narrator" in mind, cross-referencing and using wikis, etc.,)

TES was at its best when the games were sincere, but not serious.

SkyUI has 26 million downloads. That's a lot!

Gen X and Millennial writers are allergic to sincerity.

By viewing that video, you've spread terrorist content. I've already informed the bobby. Don your kippah and present your bum at the nearest mosque NOW or suffer a stern lecture from a hijabi policewomxyn.

Main features

Active shield block and weapon parry:
Player vs NPC, NPC vs NPC.
Native block chance for shields fully disabled
Parry enemy melee attacks with shields or weapons
Block enemy arrows with shields
Melee combat distance keeping. Enemies will try to stay at their weapon range and try to avoid obstacles and ledges behind them.
Can only parry/block attacks from enemies that you are facing - parry arc is different by weapon type
Negate magical component of point enchanted weapon's damage if the attack is parried successfully
Negate magical component of AOE enchanted weapon's damage (disabled by default, magic VFX will still play)
NPCs can parry player and each other, NPCs can recognise threats, and parry attacks with "human-like" reaction time
Includes skeletons, dremora and other creatures that can wield weapons. Some creatures are blacklisted due to animation/behaviour incompatibility
Weapons differ in parry/defence effectiveness, shield and gauntlets vary in effectiveness by armor class
To prevent NPC turtling they have an internal parry cool-down
Higher skilled enemies will have lower cool-down, but will cower behind their guard less
Move speed penalty per weapon type when parry is raised
NPCs windup attacks for slightly longer to better allow for parry
NPCs try and keep their distance at the edge of their weapon range
Low skill enemies will have lower chance of even attempting to parry. This is additionally affected by current fatigue.


Perfect parry and "Weak" parry:
Once parry is raised - defendant has small perfect parry window.
Perfect Parry becomes feasible at configurable skill level, after which window length is determined by skill levels.
If an attack is parried during that window - all damage is negated and the opponent is staggered
Affected by block skill + "parry tool" skill (block for shield, or related weapon skill)
Once window ends - parry becomes "weak", and amount of damage it is able to negate is determined by skill levels
If an NPC perfect parries player, they attempt a counter attack

Stagger:
From perfect parry, or regular hits. While staggered NPCs and Player can't attack or parry
To prevent stunlock stagger has a cooldown of 0.5 to 3.0 seconds based on endurance, strength and block skill, higher is better.
While staggered - player or NPC can't attack - this means that any attack that was charged but not released - will be released as soon stagger starts. Melee or ranged - can't really hold a bowstring drawn or a weapon raised while getting hit.

HandToHand block and Iron Palm:
Can parry h2h attacks with bare hands, and can parry weapons while wearing armored gauntlets/bracers
"Iron Palm" Becomes feasible at configurable skill level. Parry enemy weapon attacks with your bare hands.
Live out that DnD monk fantasy
Block with your hands if you get into a fight while holding "non-suitable items" such as throwing weapons, lock-picks or probes

Optional - Glancing Blows:
"Glancing Blows" mode, disabled by default. Preserves vanilla hit chance mechanic, but - a missed attack becomes a "glancing blow" deals a maximum of 20% damage and doesn't grant skill XP to the attacker. Time-to-kill is roughly the same, just better combat feedback.
If "strength affects h2h damage" is enabled in launcher - missed h2h attacks lose strength bonus, but instead only get reduced to 40% damage.
Takes "normal weapon resistance" and armour into account.
While disabled attacks that are missed can still be parried, or perfect parried to stagger the opponent.

Optional - Quick Mode:
Normally actor is considered "parrying" when the parry is fully raised. - when animation end is reached.
Quick mode changes that to the start of parry animation. If you are playing on mobile, on very low fps, or generally struggling with parrying enemy attacks - this one may be for you
