From their giant flea-like appearance to the way they’re controlled everything about them gives me the creeps.
Any creepy TES fauna and flora you’re not a fan of?
I miss these, Morrowind was such an inspired game with such unique environments
I was legitimately angry when I first played oblivion and learned you could just teleport anywhere automatically right from the start of the game
I was mildly annoyed when I played Oblivion for the first time and learned that the parts of Tamriel other than Vvardenfell have generic woodland and fantasy creatures instead of the acid trip fever dream shit they came up with for Morrowind.
I was also pissed off when I found out they removed levitation.
The area Oblivion takes place in was supposed to be jungle. But Todd Howards gotta be as generic as possible.
The entire continent of Morrowind is very alien. That was honestly one of the biggest draws to the game, because it was a fresh take on the Elder Scrolls type of fantasy. It didn’t just feel like earth with some magical creatures scattered around.
It very creative I love it. I absolutely agree it’s disturbing if you think about it, but really, why walk when you can ride?
What’s most disturbing is how the Dunmer steer these things to go where they want. They poke and prod at their exposed nerves and organs to coax the beasts into going where they want them to go.
Here’s a pretty good writeup on the whole thing.
Don’t apologize. Linking to Fandom isn’t some great sin, some people just prefer to avoid the site.
If you have to use Fandom for certain wikis, there are certain extensions like LibRedirect that will automatically redirect Fandom links to breezewiki, which is an alternative Fandom frontend without the obnoxious ads.
Holy shit, I never knew we were literally removing the shell from these poor dudes and messing with their brain chemistry in order to influence movement.
Feel kinda bad using them now.
Wow, with a hard R too?
Persons of reptilian ancestry is more politically correct. Most of them were born in Morrowind and have never even been to Argonia.
Also those filthy cats.
