  Bethesda of today would struggle with the goddamn weirdness that is Black Marsh in the lore. I’d rather have it remain this weird, alien place that we only know from stories than have Bethesda do a George Lucas and ruin the mystique of the lore by showing us some cookie cutter version of it.

    I think that’s part of what I mean, too. Morrowind was so alien, it did not feel like earth, and I’ve been longing for that again. They took their niche setting and made it for the masses. Everything I’ve seen them do feels like they get more watered down, more earth like

    Deserts are cool but I can’t shake the feeling they’re going to just make magical Egypt to play it safe. If they do ever make black marsh, were not really going to get black marsh, I’m never going to see their alien planet again
