Author’s Note: I apologize for the delay in getting the final part of this analysis posted. A change in my personal life has made it more difficult to find time to get this together in a timely fashion. So here we are. After all that beating around the bush, it’s finally time to answer […]
Continue ReadingPre-order Tales of Tamriel here! Make no mistake: 2015 is the best year ever to be an Elder Scrolls fan! There’s crazy amounts of stuff going on, and I’ll cover as much as possible next time. It’s never been the plan to make these blogs so frequently, but these are a few awesome highlights I […]
Continue ReadingWith the mandatory subscription gone, I can only assume ESO has seen a massive influx of new and returning players. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that the UESP is seeing a small rise in new and returning contributors (welcome back, RIM!). Update 3/23/2015- A new addition to the Loremaster’s Archive is available, Songs of the Stars! […]
Continue ReadingSir Terry Pratchett, who recently passed away surrounded by his family, was a satirist of the highest caliber. TES fans probably know him best for his numerous internationally-renowned fantasy novels, but as I learned recently (thanks, Damon), many PC players also remember and celebrate his collaboration in the Companion Vilja mods for Oblivion and Skyrim […]
Continue ReadingWe’re very focused on business on the wiki. Which is great, because stuff gets done. But it’s also a shame, because some events and achievements deserve a little more attention than a passing position on the Recent Changes list. We’ve got the news section on the main page, but that typically just covers the really […]
Continue ReadingHigh King Harald doesn’t make sense. I think I’m going to stop doing this series on a regular basis, and instead start a recurring blog for UESP news. The blurbs on the wiki’s news section don’t cover much, some site-related events deserve greater acknowledgement, and I find myself with more than a paragraph of off-topic […]
Continue ReadingAuthor’s note: After some feedback, I have decided to make this a three-part analysis instead of a two-part analysis, as was originally planned. This will allow me to address all points I wish to make in an organized fashion without getting too long-winded in any individual post. The debate between Skyrim players about which side […]
Continue ReadingIt’s time for another scheduled gaming-related post, but since I haven’t got the time or energy to write a full-on review, I’ve decided to share an excting (and nerve-racking) story from my Mount & Blade: Warband save. To give a brief overview, I’m a Lord in Sultan Hakim’s Sarranid Sultanate, and I’ve been rather instrumental […]
Continue ReadingThe Third Era doesn’t make sense. I recently completed a review of the Third Era lore page, and added several discrepancies in the Notes section. In addition to all that, the introduction in TES Arena also says the following: Now, 492 years after Tiber Septim took control and kept the peace, the land of the […]
Continue ReadingOne of the most frequently-recurring discussions between Skyrim players is the Civil War questline, the conflict which drives the narrative of the game and works its way into every other major questline and subplot. To this day, fans of the game can be found arguing which side is better: the Imperials or the Stormcloaks. In […]
