I’ve been lurking in the depths of ESO (Elder Scrolls Online) mining item data this week and have been trying to find just how many different items the game has. The quick answer is simply: “a lot”! Without getting too technical, an item link in ESO has the format: |H0:item:ID:SUBTYPE:LEVEL:ENCHANTID:ENCHANTSUBTYPE:ENCHANTLEVEL:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:STYLE:CRAFTED:BOUND:CHARGES:POTIONEFFECT|hNAME|h We don’t need to include […]
Continue ReadingAlright, I’ll say it. I came into The Elder Scrolls and UESP with Morrowind, I’ve looked at Morrowind more often than the other games, and the layout of the Morrowind namespace is something I’m absolutely in love with.

For those of you who don’t know, the Penny Arcade Expo, usually abbreviated as PAX, is a yearly gaming convention which started in Seattle. There are other PAX events […]
Continue ReadingI am rather concerned about the well-being of aging pieces of Elder Scrolls lore. Bethesda doesn’t seem to be in a hurry to preserve the older parts of canon, so it falls to us to keep their memory alive until the finally do safeguard it from Oblivion. In the spirit of preservation of things fading […]
Continue ReadingThe UESP has expanded tremendously over the last few years, almost too fast for even an administrator like me to keep up all the time. As it turns out, when your site doubles the number of articles it has in less than a year, some people might lose the script. It doesn’t help that we […]
Continue ReadingYou know what I hate? Complaining. Yes, I understand the intense irony of that claim, but it’s absolutely true. I know that most of my blog posts are nothing but barely concealed rants about the smallest details relating to the series, ranging from complaining about swimming mechanics to lengthy tirades over a simple question, but […]
