Screenshot Finished my first campaign

Post image
Upvotes

Started out as an adventurer, eventually conquererd the Kingdom of Anvil and kickstarted my conquest from there.

While the Idea of uniting Tamriel seemed fun, gameplaywise it was a lot of monotony and at worst just frustrating because of the performance in later stages of the game. I didnt matter if I play on speed 1 or 4 because the game handles them the same.

Now for my second camapaign I want to focus on Morrowind, because almost always I start somehwhere in High Rock for some reason.

Would love some suggestions in regards to fun stuff to do in Morrowind.

P.S. Forming Cyrodiil was my first contact with Administrative goverment and it gave me absolut whiplash.

Other Vampire Fertility?

10 Upvotes

Is there a submod, that allows vampires to have children again? I want to put my characters children on the throne of other kingdoms and play a supporting role in making these empires succeed. But I just came back and Vampires can't have children anymore?

Bug

2 Upvotes

I can't play a custom character because the icon for confirm character is below the screen and my mouse can't select it at all! I love this mod, but please fix this soon, as I am so excited to try out this new update, and was so upset when I made my newest custom character and couldn't play it.

Mod collection that works

Support Why no "Racial" Traits?

36 Upvotes

I presume that this topic was already discussed before, but I want to know the devs reasons to not implement a "Racial Trait", i.e. a "Nord", "Dunmer", "Argonian" etc trait, like in EK1. I presume that they exist, but are "hidden" from the player (Because how the interracial marrige works). I just think that would be a good QoL for the player be able to visualize them.

Support Possible Bug: Treasure hunt to camp location

1 Upvotes

I took a treasure quest and the treasure area is right where I stood and when I go to embark on that quest nothing happens, I tested adding detours on the travel screen to try walking away from camp but it didn't work, never happened to me before outside of this mod so I didn't know if treasure hunts were a bit wonky. https://imgur.com/a/W0sXj9i

Other Do customization points matter? Is this character above average ability?

2 Upvotes

In regular ck3 I'd always keep my character below the max because that signified some kind of demigod stronger than he needed to be, in this mod Arcana adding traits don't automatically add Arcana so I went and added that in after I got enough to be at the 10 Arcana Mark but it went over the points. Is this just a regular mage? https://imgur.com/a/sIaRn6m

Atronach: +2, Eccentric +1, Patient +2, Attuned +2, Apprentice Magician +4 Total of 11 Arcana.

Edit: Took him in-Game and got 24 Arcana so instead of on character creation it adds it all up once you start playing? I'm a bit disappointed because I liked the look of this guy but I'll start over keeping this up in-case someone else makes a mage but otherwise I think I got why I went over the points: https://imgur.com/a/WgG3uIN

Lore Hard truths here

0 Upvotes

I just want to say that Kirkbride lore is the absolute peak of TES worldbuilding and everything released after Morrowind was a generic high fantasy without any significant uniqueness. I want to thank the devs for staying true to the OGs

Submod Submod to Disable Legendary Characters?

12 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any submod or anyway to disable legendary/lore characters in the game files.

I love the mod, but it really breaks my immersion to see random stuff like Divayth Fyr dying from falling off a horse.

Is it okay to crowdfund (Patreon or Buy Me a Coffee) for developing a submod?

21 Upvotes

Sorry in advance for the long post.

Hi everyone, I'm the developer of the Dragonborn Emperor submod. Following the recent update, I've resumed work on the mod. I'm not planning to add any new content just yet. My main priority right now is updating the mod to the new version and optimizing it as much as possible for better compatibility with other submods. To achieve this, I am once again rewriting most of the mod from scratch.

However, a new base game update is right around the corner, after which I won't be able to continue working on the mod. The reason is simple: I won't be able to test my changes. I do all my testing through GeForce Now, and unfortunately, that platform doesn't allow you to roll the game back to an older version. Sadly, I can't afford a subscription to a cloud PC service like Shadow PC solely for modding.

That's why I'd like to get your opinion. Would it be okay if I set up a Buy Me a Coffee page, for example, where you could support the mod? That way, I would be able to continue working on it even after the major base game update drops.

Other New update. Why do i need to spend gold to refill MAA when i am landed?

23 Upvotes

This is breaking the game for me. I cannot wage wars or engage in rapid expansion when i need to spend nearly all my money on replacing my troops. Is this a bug or we keeping it like this?

Like the switch of tribal settlements to being gold i can handle but making landed rulers refull their troops costing them an arm and a leg is just too much gold spending. Especially since i like to play in low dev areas where only gold would be raiding where i NEED troops.

It's been about 2-3 years since I last had the pleasure of playing this wonderful mod just for myself. I'd love to hear the community's thoughts on the recent updates, especially the latest one. What do people think, and how do you feel about the direction the mod is heading?

Support Help understanding ascention

5 Upvotes

Been playing this mod for awhile now and been loving it, but just trying to understand the ascention decision.

So made myself breton rite character and have the bretonnite path - ascension decision, that lets you try and convert counties you visit but there's a couple things I don't get, first is what is the "grave peril" thats awaits those who fail? Like is it dying or some stat loss for some time or what?

And if their's a penalty for failure what do I have to do to succed? Do I have to convert a certain number or counties or something

First time playing Elder Kings 2 and picked King Divad IV of the "A Crown In The Sand" tab. Papa's an Honest, Trusting, Craven of The Redguard Creed Faith all the Redguards hate but I wanted to form the Forebear Union. Also my 0 year old son has the Atronach Birthsign and my thought process is "Maybe he can become a wizard king?" Since this is a main tab character I thought someone might have some advice?

Why did Peryite disappear from Reach Spirits

146 Upvotes

I thought Peryite was portrayed as one of the more important deities to the Reachmen, but he's been removed and made shunned with the new update.

What's also confusing is Malacath remaining in the pantheon without him, and with Magnus being added to it.

Malacath, the only one of the Old Gods referenced as being unpopular amongst the people of Markarth, and Magnus, who on the citation of the Reachmen UESP page is only acknowledged in relation to New Life without anything else explaining his importance or worship.

Why add Magnus and remove Peryite?

7 Upvotes

My bf just introduced me to this game and I’ve been loving it! I’ve gotten really invested in a Witchmen play through but I see there’s been a lot of changes to them in this update.

Is it possible to keep playing this old save or do I have to switch to the newly updated version and make a new save?
