I don’t think the intention was for him to have thought it was good. Molag Bal doesn’t even understand good or bad. He was merely stating what he believes to be the reality. "The end is coming. You’ll regret stopping me when it does." The thing is, he’s still wrong. We prevent both horrible outcomes from happening, so it was not a necessary sacrifice. That’s why he’s a villain and not a really fucked up hero who failed. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one is he? I liked Morokei because he spoke. But Ahzidal is without question the coolest Dragon Priest. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine Stormcloaks, Legion, and Thalmor also pursuing the masks and other dragon artifacts like they did in this single quest. Could’ve turned into something of an arm’s race. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing was it was really just a super detailed Dungeon delve with a lot of character, atmosphere, and lore filled inside (reminds me of shrunk down Mehunes Razer) Then you got super layered and fucking expansive side quests like the Markath conspiracy, with branching paths and tons of NPC interactions and world interactions. Instead of filling Skyrim with stuff like this (though they did a very good job with the dungeons more or less) 8/10 quests are stealing Argonian ale for some Nord beggar, and doing three random dungeon clears and becoming the Grandmaster of a guild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 I wanted more side quests related to giants; Skyrim really, really went the extra mile to developing them, there one of the most distinct "creatures" in the series. Yet I can't remember them being involved in any Quests in a major way. Also one of my favorite mobs in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gave them their own unique settlement, livestock, culture, language, interactions, random encounters, stuff like that I think they really made them feel like they were part of the world...and didn't do anything with them.

Ah, I gotcha. Yeah, I agree with that. They definitely feel more natural than a lot of other things. Though the lack of interactions makes it a mixed bag. Can they speak? Are they even close to human intelligence? I can’t give them too much credit for being fleshed out when we don’t even know if they can speak. Everything we got is very visual. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot recall where it's mentioned, because it might be some MK writings post-Morrowind. But I remember that there was one point in time where the Giants formed a huge warband of five hundred under a powerful chieftain. It might have been one Ysgramor slayed.
