QUOTE(Acadian @ Oct 28 2019, 06:25 AM)  I guess you could consider Stonefalls part of Morrowind. I think. Stonefalls zone is just below Vardenfell and above Deeshan zone. Deeshan zone contains contains the city of Mournhold. The zone that ESO calls Morrowind is basically just Vardenfell though. Things are very familiar but just a bit different here in the 2nd Era. https://esomap.uesp.net/ Pretty sure Deeshan, Stonefalls, and Vvardenfell are considered as the nation of Morrowind in ESO. When ZOS entitled the chapter that introduced Vvardenfell Morrowind, it was basically just a cash grab by ZOS by capitalizing on the nostalgia for TES 3: Morrowind. If you remember correctly, that game only features Vvardenfell also, yet we know Morrowind is much bigger.

To be fair to TES III, it didn't just cover Vvardenfell, but you couldn't get out of Mournhold, so the mainland might as well not have existed. And it did include Sheogorad, and eventually Solstheim.
Calling the DLC Morrowind to match TES III would imply Sheogorad should be included. It's not even justified as "completing Morrowind" by adding Vvardenfell, as we still don't have the Telvanni lands to the East, or the strip up to Blacklight.
Let's hope they come as DLC at some time before they completely drive away their customers.

Now I have some idea where the places are whose names you folks throw around, like Hew's Bane or Craglorn. Vvardenfell looks kind of sparse. You cannot go anywhere up near Red Mountain at all? Or even though the foyada around it? It is nice to see the old stomping grounds of Seyda Neen and Ald Ruhn though.

One of my GM's used to give tours up the Red Mountain itself. So while technically it is out of bounds, it was possible to get up there. Don't know if the devs have closed off the route since, though.
I'm not sure what you mean by foyada, SubRosa, unless you mean the canyons carved out by lava. The land in the 2nd Era may be considerably different from the countryside in the 3rd Era, but I think what you mean are the steep sided pathways around the Mountain. They're there, but they're dark and lava-riddled and full of ash. My three youngest toons (who were "born" on Vfell) won't even ride their flesh and blood mounts there, choosing to go with the dwemer ones we got for free. I'll see if I can get some screen shots of those locations so you can see.
Sparse? Vardenfell is rich, diverse and incredibly colorful. Not my favorite place, but I don't mind spending time there . . .

ESO is three hundred years before Dagoth Ur and the Blight, so no ghostfence, and I suspect the foyada of TES III are from later lava flows that coincided with Dagoth Ur's conflict with the tribunal around that time. So a lot of re-landscaping then.

QUOTE(RaderOfTheLostArk @ Oct 24 2019, 07:43 PM)  These are really nice shots! My two favorites are the "god in the flesh" = absolutely cool shot you took! The other is the "Red Year Coming Early" = love that view of the Red Mountain spewing smoke in the background amidst the top of that building that looks so much like the old Dark Elf Strongholds from the original Morrowind game! Love that shot!!! QUOTE(Acadian @ Oct 26 2019, 11:35 AM)  Buffy was extremely surprised and pleased to discover the Glenmoril jerkin is part of the Witchie Fest (via special treasure maps and for sale at the Empressario). As soon as she previewed it, she fell in love - it incorporates much of what she has wanted in a top: Buckskin & silk, mage pouches, no hip/crotch/butt flappers, not too skimpy, dyes well. She quite likes its tunic look. Screenshot.Aw, Buffy looks adorable in it!!! QUOTE(Lopov @ Oct 25 2019, 03:02 AM)  I love pics from Vvardenfell. Nice to see Sotha Sil, when he was still alive. Dragons released! Is Cincinnatus going to Elsweyr? QUOTE(ghastley @ Oct 25 2019, 12:41 AM)  QUOTE(Lopov @ Oct 24 2019, 05:29 PM)  his appearance changed dramatically! There's gratitude! Give him a decent set of armor, and he swaps it for rags!  Screw the armor, praise the rags! I thought that the effect would dispel on its own. Later I googled it, how to change the appearance back to normal. Wearing rags is good only for the XP boost and seeing skeletons everywhere around during the Festival is fun. If you don't drink the "Witch's Brew" out of the Cauldron; you will still get the XP bonus without turning into a skeleton = but it is fun to be a skeleton; I like it too, lol.

QUOTE(Lopov @ Oct 27 2019, 05:32 AM)  QUOTE(Acadian @ Oct 23 2019, 04:50 PM)  Nice shots from Stonefalls, Lopov. Buffy and I like the zone fine, embracing its unique terrain while appreciating its ease of navigation and the convenient harvesting/world boss runs it can provide. I also like Stonefalls more now that we explored what's west of Ebonheart. In the end I can say that Ebonheart is my least favorite place in the region, with Lukiul Uxith (did I get it right?) being Shonta Quassan's favorite place, he felt at home there, and there's also Pash-Riha with her sexy scales.  Too bad one can't own a home there, it's a perfect place, secluded and protected by natural stone walls. And it's not just because of the Argonian village, overall we like the western part more, also because of shipwrecks, Vivec's Antlers, waterfalls and other beautiful locations. QUOTE(Acadian @ Oct 26 2019, 04:35 PM)  Nice to see Buffy in her new jerkin! It fits her good and I like the combination of colors on her outfit. Hi Kitsune! We also found this jerkin two days ago. QUOTE(Grits @ Oct 26 2019, 05:00 PM)  Lopov, Valdi was so inspired by the Argonian Dragonknight, she followed Shonta’s World Boss tour of Stonefalls yesterday. Shellcracker got cracked again. Shonta looks great in his new armor!  There are two or three more bosses west of Ebonheart, as I learned yesterday. Unfortunately one of them, Ulath Pulath or sth similar, killed Shonta Quassan and another player of Lvl 810 almost immediately, we didn't even get a look at its name. The other player attacked it once again after being revived, while Shonta Quassan stayed behind, but Ulath got him again in a matter of seconds. Looks like a bigger group will be needed to bring it down. Yesterday I found out that one can change the appearance at a clothing table for a few septims.  Finding this out made my day, because I'm not a big fan of my characters constantly looking differently, when wearing different armor pieces. So Shonta Quassan is still wearing ghastley's and mALX's armor and staff, but he just made it look more to his liking. I think he looks like an Argonian pharaoh. Blue & YellowThe tentacle huntChildren of the Hist - my personal favorite screenshot from the game so far Two guardiansStonefallsThe other brotherRest in peaceI also love the Lukiul Uxith village; love the quests there and the NPC's! I think Ebonheart's lack of appeal for an Argonian has to be the huge Nord'ish influence there = loud drunken brawling Nords don't always sit well with everyone,  Wait till you see Windhelm! I LOVE the changes you made to your armor! Yes, definitely looks like a Pharoah! Stonefalls isn't the prettiest land in Tamriel; but personally = I love it. Really enjoyed this shot of the "Other Brother" = to me, the Strife Brothers was a hugely compelling storyline to follow! Yes, "Rest in peace" to one who had become a dear friend.

The first thing that struck me looking at this map was = I think Cyrodiil must have expanded its borders and incorporated the areas around it at some point in the future; because here in the Second Era it is way up off the Topal Bay!

Yeah, it's about time, right? I finally got my controller working the way I want. The trick was to leave X-padder (a 3rd party program which morphs keyboard buttons into controller functions) on in the background, but NOT have any selections chosen in X-padder. For some reason this allowed me to set the controller's buttons, bumpers, triggers, and joysticks in the way I wanted. Nobody knows what I'm talking about.  Bottom line though: I figured it out (finally). What is the timescale in this game? It seems slower than 30. Buffy looks awesome. And so do Rader's pics. Why is that one pic termed "Mirocu" Rader?

I think I recall the day length in ESO being 5 to 6 real hours, so that would be a time factor of 4 to 5. It's probably not a round number, so that you don't get the same game time of day if you log in at the same real time every day, and that fits my experience.

Whoa, that's a real slow timescale!  Slowest I've ever used was 10, and I recently switched back to 20 in Skyrim (all the way back to 30 in Oblivion!) Yes, I am on PC. I'm not sure which server I'm on, but I assume it's NA. How do I find out? The no sleeping thing is weird, but I suppose it's because the game always runs in real-time, so there's no way to go into MenuMode and fast-forward time.

The other thing that's different related to the time, as that "fast travel" using the wayshrines really is. You arrive at the same time you left, rather than game time elapsing while you traveled. That's because it's the same time of day for every player, and there are no time zones on Nirn. TES II - Daggerfall was completely the opposite, and a trip from one end of the bay to the other could take a month. Does that prove it's a flat planet?

As Acadian said, there are a couple of crows on the ground in the Clockwork City, so it is a reference to our forum's resident crow who is exceedingly lame because he won't play this game has a bit of a different taste in games and unfortunately won't be playing this one. I had comments on a lot of these screenshots; but they all went right out of my head when I saw Nocturnal's enormous other-worldly breasts in my face,  (just kidding) I love the shot of you and Lopov, that is Awesome!!! And Naryu!  Great shot of her!!!
