QUOTE(Acadian @ Dec 19 2015, 01:25 AM)  Is Haa-Rei still in the Orc province? The scenery looks like it has lots of variation. Nice that several friends joined in to beat the big hitpoint sponge!
He is indeed. We've been exploring the lowland plains on the western side of the province. The map is pretty much split 50/50 between snow and no-snow. It was so strange bumping into that many random players in the middle of nowhere, then after the battle everyone just vanished back into the wild to carry on questing.

QUOTE(hazmick @ Dec 15 2015, 03:03 PM)  Glad you're all enjoying the screenies, especially the Pocket Mammoths and Snow Bears.  Yesterday, Haa-Rei and I explored a Dwemer Ruin buried under the snow. All the metal was a really cool grey/white colour. We also climbed a mountain named 'Sorrow', where Orcs bury their greatest chieftains. Even with all the avalanches and other dangers, Haa-Rei enjoyed a nice bit of tomb raiding. To finish the day off, we went for a lovely walk through the forest. Orsinium might just be our new favourite place. Hazmick, these screens are fantastic! I didn't think I would be interested in playing Orsinium, but - your screens and comments have made me want it! It sounds like there is a tremendous background story for the area filled in - LOVE that mountain where the Chiefs are buried, that is Awesome - even just the idea/thought behind the tradition! I am really surprised you have made me like this DLC so much; did not expect that! I haven't played ESO in a couple months, really wish I'd tried it out before my paid membership ended. QUOTE(hazmick @ Dec 18 2015, 07:26 PM)  Scenery: MeadowRiverPlainsA Daggerback, cousin of the Bristleback from the looks of things. A lot friendlier though, thankfully. Myself and several other players (There were about 10 or 11 of us) all had to work together to bring down Old Snagara. It was tough, but we managed it. Is this still in Orsinium? Urk, that Snagara looks like a big flea, gaaaah. The meadow is gorgeous, I love the colorful flowers and wondered if they were pickable for ingredients? The people waiting must have been waiting for Snagara to respawn, I've done that at a few of those skull and crossbones places.

Nice to see everyone enjoying the screenies, here's some more: Eveli the bowgirlOrzorga the chef Kurog the King (So tall!) Throne roomThroneOrsinium Outlaw hideout. For non-ESO players, the outlaws are like an early version of the Thieves Guild, and each major city has a hideout (usually in the sewers) where players can access fences. Relaxing with a mug of tea after a busy day. Finally, have you ever wondered where Briar Hearts come from? This post has been edited by hazmick: Dec 20 2015, 06:35 PM

I am really wanting to try this DLC since you have started showcasing it, this is Aweomse! Sounds like they have some great quests and storyline going on it! That throne looks like something Hircine might like! *shivers* And Briar Hearts - urk! Gross !!!! The Outlaw hideout looks huge, but ... kind of barren compared to some of the others, lol. I guess Orc don't make great thieves?  These are great shots, and yes! Thank you for sharing them!

QUOTE(SubRosa @ Dec 20 2015, 02:06 PM)  Eveli has a great outfit. Is she a Wood Elf? The earth tones really work. Mmmmm, Ventricle Pie... I thought Briar Hearts came from Briar Rabbit? That is one creepy tree. Yeah, that Ventricle Pie sounded gag-ariffic, This post has been edited by mALX: Dec 20 2015, 08:16 PM

Some of the side quests here are really really good. Like, some of the best in the entire game. If you ever get back into ESO you should certainly check it out. QUOTE(SubRosa @ Dec 20 2015, 07:06 PM)  Eveli has a great outfit. Is she a Wood Elf? The earth tones really work. Mmmmm, Ventricle Pie... Yep, she's a Bosmer, and she's wearing a mix of light and medium Bosmer armor. As for the pie, it was actually Ogre ventricle taken from a vegetarian Ogre. Orc high cuisine. QUOTE(Acadian @ Dec 20 2015, 07:24 PM)  Great shots of Haa-Rei's continuing tour of Orc-land. That blond, blue-eyed elven bowgirl is adorable indeed!
Wow, a briar heart tree!
Everyone loves bowgirls! The briar heart tree was certainly interesting, if a little unsettling. Here's some more: Met a friendly Reachman, named Kyrtos. Did a suitably grueling trial for Malacath. Found a nice Daedric rock. Helped some Orc miners who stumbled upon a Dwemer ruin.A very BIG Dwemer ruin, which turned out to be a Dwemer quarry. The control room was huge too (note Neramo the Altmer to the left of the device in the centre, for scale). Finally, Haa-Rei and Magni watch as two Echatere clash heads.

QUOTE(Acadian @ Dec 21 2015, 07:24 PM)  is there any mounted combat in ESO?
I'm afraid not. I'd love it if Magni could lend a paw during a fight. Just a couple today: Found a big ol' Malacath shrine. Orcs sure love their statues. The aftermath of an intense encounter. MenagerieAnd finally, after completing the main quest in Orsinium, we had to say goodbye to Eveli. Haa-Rei and I very much hope to see her again.

Let's see what we have: Before leaving Wrothgar, Haa-Rei just HAD to explore the public dungeon, which turned out to be a huge Dwemer Ruin, filled with undead Orcs as well as the usual mechanical critters. Now we've journeyed South, and into Cyrodiil. We payed a brief visit to Cheydinhal, though it's little more than a collection of houses and a chapel. Odd to think it'll become a bustling town in a few centuries. Next to the bridge leading to the Imperial City. Unfortunately it looks a little...destroyed...but never fear, a contingent of Imperial Soldiers are working hard to solve the problem... ...maybe we'll find another way in.

More Cyrodiil screenies: First up, some Akaviri architecture at the Southern Morrowind Gate.Some Nordic architecture, just in case Haa-Rei forgot which alliance he was part of. Covert operations, behind the Aldmeri Dominion siege line as they attack an Ebonheart Pact fortress. We stumbled upon a strange scene. The man had been...wooing...all three women, and they were out for revenge. Haa-Rei convinced them to let the fellow go. Perhaps we should have just let them get on with it. Remember Aleswell from Oblivion? Well it turns out there used to be a big fort there. Finally, we made it to Chorrol...though it seems there's trouble brewing here too.
