Anise’s cabin?

NICELY done! *DING!* DING! *DING!*

[ghastley]

This was taken because Mirri decided to oerch on the fire, but it has enough clues for this thread.

Where was Minx?

[Renee]

Where was Minx?

Yeha, she's walking above the upcoming bonfire.

I really have no idea. I'll say Bruma.

[ghastley]

Not Bruma, but this location did feature in TES 4.

[Lena Wolf]

Underpall Cave? I think this is just by the entrance to the Keep.

[ghastley]

Not Underpall. I am tempted to add more, but should resist.

[Renee]

Alright, I'll say the outside of Chorrol gates. Is that in the right county, at least?

[ghastley]

Alright, I'll say the outside of Chorrol gates. Is that in the right county, at least?

Nope. But it is close to another City, and Lena's answer was almost right, at the same time as being completely wrong.

My best guess would be Fat Ramp Camp near Skingrad

No. Skingrad is not yet in ESO, so you can't get near it, and Fat Ramp isn't on the map. This location is below ground.

[Renee]

Alright let's try to get a crack on this. Lena said Underpall Cave, and ghastley said Lena is "almost right". So I am using one of my lifelines. I'm going to Phone a UESP page. I can't remember where Underpall is.

Man, nothing is near Underpall. Chorrol is nearest town I guess, but Chorrol is also wrong. So is Bruma. Grrraawal... Yeesh I am stumped.

Maybe Lipsand Tarn? Maybe Lipsand looks way different in Elder Scrolls Online's 2E world?

[ghastley]

Lena was not geographically close, but her answer was still close to being right. Or does that just make it harder?

[Lena Wolf]

Well, actually my first hunch was Fingerbowl Cave. Let's try that. I have no idea which locations from TES4 are available in ESO, so I'm just going through TES4. Does it look very different from TES4 or is it fairly similar? Don't give the details, just the degree of similarity, please.

[ghastley]

Not Fingerbowl.

The outside is very similar to TES 4. The interior (where I took the screenshot) is quite different. Both have water, but in ESO you can wade everywhere except the back exit. Oblivion had bandits, where ESO has goblins.

Well, I'm stumped. Since the interior is different in TES4, I won't be able to recognise it, unless you also post a picture of the exterior. Underpall had undead, this place has bandits, and yet Underpall was close, although not geographically... umm... Fort Cedrian? A shot in the dark. We nearly drowned there, so it definitely has water...

[ghastley]

Not Fort Cedrian.

If I explain why your earlier guess was "close", I'd give away the correct answer. And hopefully that helps.

On second thoughts, it's simpler at this stage to give you the for the first guess. It's UnderTOW Cavern, Nowhere near Underpall, which also appears in both. I thought the Minotaur tents/huts woiuld identify for the ESO players, but ...

Undertow! I was thinking that... But then for some reason stopped thinking about it. Actually, I don't remember ever going in... So the water didn't ring a bell. Thanks for the cake though.

I'm running out of non-modded pictures, do you want to have another go? Seeing how no one actually guessed that one. (But the cake is already gone.)

[Renee]

I was about to start thinking "fort" instead of town or city. Never would have guessed Undertow though, my next guess would have been whatever fort is nearest to Underpall.

I thought the Minotaur tents/huts woiuld identify for the ESO players, but ...

Yes, where are all of the ESO gamers?

[Acadian]

... Yes, where are all of the ESO gamers? ...

My thinking is to blame it on mass and scale. ESO is so much bigger than Oblivion and Skyrim combined that remembering locations is practically impossible for me. By the time Buffy gets back to visiting someplace she's already been, she's forgotten it and it feels new. Currently, ESO features about 35 'zones'. On average, each zone has as much content/locations as either Oblivion or Skyrim.

Undertow Cavern is one of 6 types of dungeons, called delves. On average, each of those 35 'zones' has 6 delves. 6x35 is. . . alot.

[Lena Wolf]

All right, folks! Found an un-modded screenshot.

Where are we?
