If anything it’s the 4E201 Imperials that would hurt an imp fan the most...

I like the Imperials, as flawed as they are in 4E. Hell at this point my favorite version of the Imperial race comes from ESO. It has the Roman feel without being over powered in my opinion. I would like a little bit more of the Roman flare, but not to much. Which armor are you referring too?

ColonelKillaBee Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Lol love how our lists are almost exactly the same except you forgot Orcs I always saybfuck Orcs But it’s as a joke mainly, I really love their culture and their history with trinimac and Orkey.

Yeah, people love to crap on Oblivion Imperials, but they were done horribly in Skyrim too. I guess shitty Romans are just easier for people to swallow than shitty generic fantasy Europeans. That, and Skyrim wasn't their homeland so it wasn't as jarring. I think that Colovians and Nibens would be cool to see done right, but I guess that's too much work. It's always nice when your writing gets reinforced by the canon after you come up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESO mostly regulated the Roman stuff to the more cosmopolitan parts of the Empire, City Isle and the Legion, rather than just making it a blanket "Imperial" thing. I liked that. 1 It's always nice when your writing gets reinforced by the canon after you come up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not as cool as Morrowinds but at least it’s still somewhat original in that you could tell it’s Roman influence a bit but with a more knightly feel. Which I know is generic European fantasy but that’s better to me than strictly generic Roman. Skyrims is literally regurgitated Roman ass. 1 "Even the hardest dick must go flaccid." -Colonelkillabee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColonelKillaBee Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 @BigBossBalrog that movie the Ritual wasnt bad I was translating the Norse runes for Celan and knew the creature was a Jotunn and related to Loki before the movie even said it She was in awe.

BTC Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 My top three is Bretons, Redguards, Orcs. Though I wish I knew more about the Trinimac/Orkey/Malacath/Boethiah stuff. Oooh, a post in Morrowind? I'm excited for that. And to see what Witch does with the Argonians.

Centurion Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I don’t know what you guys have against the Roman influenced stuff. I mean the Nords are pretty generic Viking soooo I just like the Roman influence and would like to see it more prominent in the Imperials. Hell, I’d like it if the Colombian/Nibenese split echoes the Roman/Byzantine split. Not saying they have to be carbon copy, but I’d like an influence.

Vikings don’t mummify their dead, yell really loudly and turn people into dust, or have a dead god that routinely comes back as their heroes to fuck up elves They’re obviously Norse but they’re definitely not copy paste Norse.

Well for one, most of us older Nord fans aren't happy with what was done with the Nords in Skyrim either. For two, it's not that Roman influence sucks, it's that Bethesda created something waaaaaay more interesting and unique with their older descriptions of the Cyrods than generic Romans. The original Nibenese and Colovians are so much cooler than just "Western/Eastern" Roman Empire in my opinion.

I just want some influence in the styles and mannerisms of the cultures, I’m not saying they have to mimic real life. Hell I’ve read the old descriptions and find them hella interesting. I just have my preference for how it’s carried out. Well, at least we can all agree we don’t really like how the Imps are handled, tho for different reasons lol Fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
