Compare it to Morrowind:
It is so disgusting to see a interesting and cultured race be turned into a childish cutsy generic elf.
Really? I mean -really-?

That Morrowind woodelf is ugly. The Woodelf drawing for online, character and village included look like a slightly more realistic version of Warcraft's nightelves.
ReplyDeleteThey were supposed to be ugly. It is like female dwarves, they'd make more sense with beards, but kids like you want to see hot naked ass so they ruin the design to get your money.
DeleteI completely agree! The original elves were interesting and unique! Their "Uglieness" gave made them Alienesque and mystical. Now they are the boring old cliche I could find ANYWHERE else! But I suppose they want to bring in a bigger demographic!
ReplyDeleteReally great post.. Thank u very much..

ReplyDeleteHere's the thing. You said that "Bosmer are interesting"
ReplyDeleteAre they annoying little fucks? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a loremaster who studies metaphysics, I am telling you, specifically, in Elder Scrolls, no one calls Bosmer "interesting". If you want to be "disgusting" like you said, then you should too. They're not the interesting.
If you're saying "bosmer are interesting" you're referring to the horrible grouping of Tumblr, which includes things from shitty character screenshots to awfully written fan-fictions about Ayrenn.
So your reasoning for calling the Bosmer "interesting" is because the casuals say "But they eat eachother!!!" Let's get Todd's work and Phil's work in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone who plays Elder Scrolls online a Exposed midriff or a Ewan McGregor? It's not one or the other, that's not how Bosmer work. They're both. A bosmer is a bosmer and a member of the faggot family. But that's not what you said. You said the bosmer is a ruined, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all bosmer bad, which means you'd call Gaenor's work, Fargoth's work, and Tiber Septim's work fanfic, too. Which you said you don't.
It's okay to just admit you're a faggot, you know?
Bosmer are supposed to be faggy on the surface, as anyone who meets Fargoth and Gaenor will attest. But if you look into the lore you can write a background of a decent bosmer. Similar to how argonians are on the whole slave-cast low-IQ scum but you can still roleplay a decent Argonian or a non-criminal Khajit. But these exceptions to the archtype are interesting for a reason, because they stand out of the trend. You no longer have anything interesting, exception or otherwise, if you make every bosmer an Orlando Bloom with a noble bow.
