Vordur Steel-Hammer, resident geographer of the UESP, has been tackling a much needed overhaul of Lore place articles in the Iliac Bay region. In TES II: Daggerfall, the game world was divided into a series of city-states, so the capital city and the surrounding region typically got the same name. And now ESO has thrown […]
Continue ReadingFor those of you who haven’t played Morrowind (heresy!), the premise of the game is that the Emperor personally ordered the release of a prisoner from the Imperial City’s prison who appears to fulfill the Nerevarine prophecies, which speak of a reincarnation of the Dunmer war hero Indoril Nerevar, a being who will repel the […]

Next month the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) will kick off once again for the developers and publishers from the gaming community to come forward and announced their latest products. Before E3, in a few days in fact, Ubisoft will unveil the latest entry to their Assassin’s Creed money […]

UPDATE […]
Continue ReadingZoS is releasing Patch 2.0.4. They also released a new article, Reflecting on ESO’s First Year, and Bethesda highlighted a fan tribute from Elloa commemorating the anniversary.
