#ElderScrolls fans who couldn't get into the second game, #Daggerfall. I've got a New Player Guide up now.

Discussing both the Vanilla and Unity engines as well as a few Character Build examples, first dungeon, and general advice.

The new Deep Dungeon content just dropped today, so I'll be running that and other things in #FinalFantasyXIV today, most likely all day.

On a less related note, it's difficult to explain to the average person:

"Yeah, I like the catgirl maid look, but I'd like it a bit more masculine in certain ways, but not all the ways." that's the exact opposite of what most people want.

Found this #Fallout 3 side by side for a conversation on my Discord Server, and it reminded me of how I'd like to use my (new, not this one) avatar more, but MediaPipe doesn't play well with Linux.

I still love @warudo.app #Vtuber suite, but OpenSeeFace is less expressive.

@oannaybz.bsky.social It's strange, I didn't recognize your posts at first because your avatar turned cute all of a sudden for some reason.

#ElderScrolls 4: #Oblivion Horse Armor Remastered again just in time for the holidays.

Would be nice if they paid the remaster studio to optimize the product while they were at it. But this is a low cost, high return gambit by Microsoft using the TES IP.

Due to pixel compression, the smaller you make Lord Woodborne's face from Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall, the more he looks like he's smiling. That's why his emoticon is a staple in all my channels online.

Pictured: The face of the person who almost seized control of Wayrest and the Numidium, and with them potentially all of Tamriel. Lord Woodborne's plots would be unceremoniously put to an end by the Agent, either by directly killing him or by exposing his plot.

I've never felt so called out 🤣

A sign billboard from a restaurant, positioned inside on the counter. Contains a hand-drawn picture with black marker on whiteboard of an orc from Lord of the Rings smiling, holding a steaming cup of coffee.

By his head is a chat bubble with the words "Looks like peppermint mocha's back on the menu boys!"

New Video. When people watch me play #ElderScrolls 2 #Daggerfall or hear me talk about it they often receive a false impression about how the game plays.

Let's talk about the two main ways to play it and why.

Just chatting and hanging out while I spend most of the day grinding Final Fantasy 14's Artifact weapon.

This Atherwell grind is certainly a thing...

The Open Source Engine for #ElderScrolls 1 Arena, #OpenTESArena has hit version 0.17.

It still is NOT fully playable, but the project is trucking along much faster now that the renderer has been entirely rewritten (that's what took those extra years).

My friend asked what IT work is like.

I sent him these two images and told him, "This is how your day goes. You don't choose. It's either or." 😂

Mount And Blade warband is so great, there are so many mods and total conversions for it.

Zaric Zhakaron 🎮🔧🍓🐱🧚 @zaric.bsky.social · 8d

I know it's just a bug but that would be a pretty cool piece of lore, having rumors about an NPC be slightly inaccurate to some kind of storyline effect.

Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind, in space. Picking up where I left off as a Jawa in Starwind. This isn't a mini-mod but a complete video game.

We are just wrapping up Chapter 1 of the main quest retaking the ruins of Taris, then we are going to Kashyyyk to hunt Mandalorians.

This is the extra special containment section below the standard "Held for Review" which is visible to me but nobody else.

I can very well guess the contents of the Offensive content due to offensive comments in Held For Review that have not been flagged as such.

Zaric Zhakaron 🎮🔧🍓🐱🧚 @zaric.bsky.social · 9d

I remember when everyone called me a Bethesda Hater, now because I'm not foaming at the mouth due to social media nonsense my Elder Scrolls 6 video is acquiring actual hate comments in this as of yet (possibly forever) unopened BONUS SECTION.

Reminds me of Shadowrun where a Dragon is a CEO of a Megacorp.
