All these secret features, now I know why it crashes once an hour.

haha, there was one patch that crashed me once every 10-15 minutes. Bloody unplayable. I just stopped playing for a few months. :s

Wolves not attacking you is in a couple guide books. I DEMAND MORE HIDDEN FACTS!

I dunno if healing potions are so much secret as they are bored, possibly drunk developers chucking shit everywhere and giggling madly.
BrettTheHitmanCart
I don't think anything would attack you when you're a werewolf. Except maybe a Whomping Willow

- Kills everyone in Dawnstar to see the flowers.

But if you killed ALL the townsfolk and the flowers still appear... THEN WHO WAS PHONE?!

DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN
CaveatSpectator
I love these. Makes me want to play the game again.

Again? You ever stopped?

I imagine the gold ring belonged to some heartbroken man who found his girlfriend, and to-be fiance, cheating on him with a guard.

M'aiqs isn't actually that interesting. They also do that for any disembodied voice.

"Named after beta testers" I hope you don't mean beta testers for skyrim, the divines have been around since the beginning of elder scrolls.

Yeah... Beta testers for Arena I suppose.

skallik
Azura? Azura you are not an Aedra, go home to Oblivion, Azura, you're drunk.
TheLoneJuanderer
No, I think they meant the god names were BASED on the tester's names. Like the god Akatosh may have been named after a guy named Tosh.
OctopusGardener
Maybe the username AKATosh

This game is so incredible, I've played almost 80 hours and I didn't know any of this.

ive got 320 hours now and I havn't even bothered to finish the main quest yet ... then moved on to GTA V lol

Read the books in game, if you haven't. They're actually brilliant anecdotes. I love them.

Now I have to go and play to find those red flowers for all the people I killed.

The first one...man I wish I was a pc gamer. :(
NotSoSmartAlek
what's the big deal about a gold ring anyway?
Rhase
I will never buy an Elder Scrolls game for anything but PC. The mods keep them living forever.
DastardlyLandlubber
Agreed. After playing the living shit out of Oblivion, I got some mods and decided to install it again. Most fun ever. Same with Morrowind.
Rhase
I don't know why but I could never get into oblivion. 30 minutes in I'd be quitting and booting up Morrowind.
ConspicuousSpellingError
For one gold ring?
DeliciousMayo
For mods...glorious, glorious mods.

This looks cool.. it makes me want to play the game.

You really should. Almost two years after it's been released, I still play it and find new stuff.

Skyrim is an incredible game. I highly reccomend it, it's tons of fun.

THAT'S NINE DIVINES YOU IMPERIAL SWINE! GLORY TO TALOS!

Imperials were reluctant to give away the worship, but had to otherwise they'd be raped.

Die with Honor, never Yield. Fearless hearts, filled with pride, into Glory we shall ride.
skallik
Just as planned by the Thalmor. Talos holds Mundus together, no worship, Talos loses power and Mundus and humanity are erased 1/2
skallik
2/2 and then the Aldmer MIGHT regain their divinty. They are willing to erase humanity and Mundus for the off-chance they become gods
Biohazardous
That actually makes a lot of sense. I hadn't thought of it that way.
tiedhawke
He's a Stormcloak, good luck getting logic past that frozen thick skull of his. Conflict makes everyone weaker to the Thalmor.
EddardStark
Talos was a dick anyways.
skallik
A dick who holds the fabric of Mundus together. No Talos worship, no power for Talos, no Mundus. Nice job helping the Big Bad of the series
Biohazardous
At this rate, however, the PC has more claim to the Ruby Throne than any Colovian, Nibenese, or Weald Imperial in Cyrodiil...
tiedhawke
Hrrmmm... They've stopped the DLC train for Skyrim, but that has some good potential right there.
Biohazardous
(2/2) united the Human Countries (High Rock, Cyrodiil, Skyrim, and Hammerfell) together, fighting the Thalmor.
Biohazardous
Right? I have a whole story planned out for it, where my PC basically marches into Cyrodiil, reinstates the worship of Talos, and (1/2)
CillianTheWriter
I thought there were 9 divines :S

May Talos guide you, traveler.

WE DONT WORSHIP TALOS, YOU HEATHEN!!

If Talos isnt a god, then why did his blood count toward "The Blood of an Aedra" for Martin's ritual in Oblivion? Check. Mate.

There are 9 divines. You just slit the throat of any altmer bootlicker who dares to say that Talos isn't a Divine anymore }:D

GingerTheBeard
OH HEY! i remember you, at the bee and barb right?
Johnnyknockin
Worship of Talos is against the law in Skyrim as per the order of the Empire...
RebelJoe13
YEAH WELL YOU KNOW WHAT! ALL HAIL TALOS!!!
WoahOhOhAhAhAhAaaaHahAhAh
not in my game, since you know, i wiped the empire out.
sixtwobravo
That's why I joined the Stormcloaks. Filthy elves can't tell me who to worship!
LazyBrazilian
And what does the Empire do?? NOTHING! Nay, WORSE THAN NOTHING!! The Imperial machine enforces the will of the Thalmor on its OWN CITIZENS!!
Biohazardous
Empire did it to protect their asses from the Thalmor. If they didn't comply, they'd be annihilated.
skallik
The Empire would have died, but humanity would have prevailed, that Treaty only furthered the Thalmor's plans along.
Biohazardous
Think about it: It also furthered the Empire's plans. Something is brewing between the two factions.
Pharya
Well, really it's the order of the Thalmor, but it is enforced by the Empire so I'll allow it! :p
skallik
You are then allowing the Thalmor's plan to erase Mundus and Humanity, nice job helping the Big Bads of the entire series.
Yoshiru
Well... there's evidence they want to erase everything. In a very... very... Vivec-level Meta kind of way.
Pharya
If you believe the Emporer then it was either sign the White Gold Concordat and end the war, or be annihilated. I'd rather sign the treaty.
skallik
Humanity would have prevailed, the Empire just wanted to maintain some shred of power.
relevantrelevance
There are, just not to the Thalmor scum and their Imperial pawns.
Zeniiba
Lets all just agree the Tribunal are way more legit anyway.
Rhase
Vivec is the man, man.
skallik
If by "legit" you mean "I killed 2/3 of them in Morrowind and Almelexia took care of Sotha Sil for me." then yeah they are pretty legit.
GingerTheBeard
all hail the nerevarine!
Zeniiba
TIL : People don’t realise the Tribunal doesn’t refer solely to morrowind era tribunal. It still exists in Skyrim era.
Talmorean
Fuck the Thalmor!

Damn humans thinking that a man like Talos deserves to be a divine. Thankfully that blasphemy is being stamped out.

The age of aggression is just about done.

Oh yes, internet, the real world where you feel sad if somebody disagrees with your opinion and it makes a difference.

Imgur is the real life. It's not just a fantasy. Caught in a landslide, no escape from reality.

If Talos isnt a god, then why did his blood count toward "The Blood of an Aedra" for Martin's ritual in Oblivion? Check. Mate.
surruhjane
Talos wasn't even considered a divine by the heathen nords until he died, first. Secondly, Mer believe the aedra are direct ancestors.
skallik
Did you even read what I said? His blood is that of an Aedra, there for he is an Aedra. Explain the "Blessing of Talos"

I don't give a damn what the elves think - Akatosh is as worthy as any.

There are MANY parallels to real world left/right politics. I find it very telling how so many side with the Stormcloaks.

But WHY wouldn't you? Unless you're rooting for the Thalmor that is. The pro's of the stormcloaks simply outweigh the cons in the full scale

The state of Tamriel mimics Earth. Wars everywhere. The seat of power shifting between nations.

IjustRegisteredToSay
Talos doesn't count in Skyrim.
AppleSpicer
Well that sure shows which side you butter the bread, imperial scum.
IjustRegisteredToSay
Shit. I always play an Imperial too and side with the empire (or nobody) because Ulfric is a dick ._.
CillianTheWriter
But I've never heard anyone say "By the eight divines!" in the game o.O
Pharya
The priest reading the Stormcloak soldiers their last rites at the very beginning of the game, in Helgen, says it...
ImmortalLoveRodd
Anyone with Imperial affiliation will say "By The Eight"
doyouwannabuildasnowman
Pretty sure I've heard imperials say "By the Eight!". Pretty much anyone who isn't openly a Stormcloak, I think.
Zeniiba
I think it depends what side you take. As a reluctant milk drinker i usually hear eight not nine.
TotinosPizzaRolls
Then you need to listen more. Woman says it in the intro when you watch the first guy get executed.
CillianTheWriter
Shit, seriously? I've heard so many random passers-by say "by the nine divines". Heard it a lot more than the 0 times I've heard "by the 8"
TotinosPizzaRolls
If you're playing Oblivion, sure.
0xabad1dea
Seeing people deny Talos' divinity made me unreasonably angry and emotional because I met him in Morrowind and HE'S REAL CURSE YOUR LIES
aninsanecouple
Skyrim was my first TES, so I can't and won't confirm that you damn Stormcloak!
Bronymous
I was there, and he was wearing Imperial armor you ungrateful Aldmeri bootlicker!

Sorry but if you dont go back and play Arena, Redguard, Morrowind, and Oblivion, you are a casual and your opinion is worthless.

In the Oblivion expansion Knights of the Nine the profet talks about the 8 and 1, becauses Talos was human before he became a devine

That won't happen for a few more games, probably... I'd reckon they're building up for a major plot line down the track. (1)

Kinda like how they were mentioning dragons returning since morrowind (2)

that's actually really freaking cool
KAMIKAME
im going to be honest, i was disappointed i couldn't join the thalmor. fired the game up on day 1, created a highelf. forced to kill elfbros

Same! I made a high elf account just to see if I could join
KAMIKAME
hmmm. i should find/make a mod.
iherdyaks
perfect response haha!
Andnowyouknow
He never was a god. From the beginning it was the Eight and One. He ascended to Godhood by Mantling Lorkhan.
ColonelSamanthaCarter
If he ascended to Godhood that makes him a god. He is the ninth Divine, the Thalmor just don't like it because they see humans as vermin.
Andnowyouknow
The Aedra are the eight beings that gave their lives to create the world. Talos didn't do that, he was a human that later mantled Lorkhan.
Neuronyx
I don't see any of the Divines disagreeing in any of their own special ways with Talos being ascended. Good enough proof for me! HAIL TALOS.
AcadianBacon
This is all very interesting. :D I didn't know a lot of this stuff. People in the game still say 'By the Nine Divines' though. o.o
