Lothran is already in Skingrad now.

Blimey. From Bruma to Chorrol to the Imperial City to Skingrad in less than one month. Well, that's what happens when winter lingers and Easter comes early :P

I like Skingrad. Wish the house wasn't so expensive, though.

I like it too and if Lothie didn't have three places already, maybe he would get the house in Skingrad. Then again, it probably wouldn't suit him to be honest. Too big and snassy.

How much gold does Lothie have?

He always has around 10.000 gold. He could have sooo much more but it wouldn't suit him. Apparently, the same goes for me in real life... :P

Lothran has now started to clear out Fort Linchal. It's a really nice walk to it from Skingrad and we enjoyed it quite a bit. On this occasion the purple beam emitted from the altar, something we usually don't see when we visit this particular fort.

You know, I'm playing Beyond Skyrim: Bruma on my current girl, and the nostalgia for Oblivion is almost excruciating - with the "look" of the area around Bruma, and the music.... I keep winding up with tears in my eyes....

Does it look like in Oblivion? I saw Bruma looks quite different in ESO.

It does and.. does not... I looked and I know i have a few really nice pictures, but I could not find them. They are in Haven Linked somewhere also.. but I don't remember where.

The only one I could find is inside and Inn.. and really it's just a close up of the character that went there in Beyond Bruma.

I'll get some shots today, but yes - it's very snowy, and the city is laid out pretty much like in Oblivion. The architecture is similar. The Beyond Skyrim team had to make all the meshes and textures from scratch as beth doesn't allow re-use of its assets from previous games. The music isn't exactly like Oblivion's, but it's close enough to give me chills....

Thanks, Areial! Can't say I recognize too much but I guess it's bound to not look exactly the same anyway :)

Sere would know better, but the Statue and Fort may be added on.. but yeah, they may be "vanilla" with different graphics.

I can't remember if there's a Sentinel statue in vanilla or not. That's not Fort Horunn - maybe Cutpurse Hideout? I'm going to upload a few pics shortly.

Spoiler: click to toggle


Frostcrag Spire

Bruma from a distance

Bruma View One

Bruma View Two

Cloudshelter - a player home mod

All but the last one were done using the free camera - the actual up close resolution is MUCH better; the free cam loses definition and resolution.

Wow, Sere! That's a very wintery Bruma! Exactly how it should have been like in the vanilla game!


(Also I just used three exclamation points)

Thanks! *snerk* So you did, miro! That's fine though, I use lots myself. Yes, I believe they did an excellent job of creating/re-creating. I should have thought to get a pic in the blizzard that happened the day Aislin arrived, but didn't. I'll try to remember the next time it snows - though it's into spring now, so might be a while.

It really does look as Bruma should have looked in Oblivion. I did try a winter mod in 2009 but it changed too much, also it didn't quite work with invisible enemies and such.


Lothran is now by the Isolated House SE of Skingrad. This is a very beautiful area of Cyrodiil and basically the only one where we really do feel isolated.
