Not a fan of ESO just introducing a whole new Daedric Prince out of the blue. That should either be left to the main series, or just not done at all.

Like others have said, I really hope that at the end of the storyline we banish/destroy her in some way so that the lore remains consistent in later titles.

ESO has contributed more lore than the main series in this millennium, I have no idea why players are so appalled by ESO lore. ESO is cannon and not a better or worse place to tell Elder Scrolls lore than a mainline game.

Cannon can be ***. Let's hope Bethesda just cut this and tell ZO to stick to what they are capable of. Creating good lore is not one of it. Their version of apocrypha just looks like a grey Morrowind with fossils...
They mistook quality with quantity and now we have gwenevere and the magical jewels.

Did we go to two different zones, because ESO Apocrypha is one of the most visually unique areas so far. Way better than in Skyrim. Like, it's not even close.

That’s a good observation, but I’d argue that other TES games have less focus on their main quest series, because they have other series of quests, mostly in the factions. ESO has some of this in the Fighters and Mages Guild, the Balmora and Sadrith Mora series and the Psijic Order, but those quest lines have fallen away from later DLC.

This is a good point, actually. It would probably feel a bit more diverse if they'd create more sidequests or even better side-questlines. Maybe something new for the Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood in new areas (although then probably some people who aren't interested in them or dislike them would complain that there were so many quests they can't or don't want to do in the new chapter). Unfortunately, I don't see that happening. They were reducing quest content more and more over the last few years, it's already scarce now. The quest number alone was reduced from almost 80 each in Morrowind and Summerset to about 50 each in the last few chapters.

A lot of my Morrowind games had little to do with the Sixth House Cult. Those player characters were too busy looking for Dwemer texts for the Mages Guild, dealing with Camonna Tong (one way or another), climbing the native aristocracy, building Raven Rock etc.

I had a few very "completionist" runs, but yeah, there were a lot of characters who only focussed on one or a few aspects. And some were involved in the Sixth House Cult more than usual, by mods that let you join them and help Dagoth Ur to gain power

Well I might be the only one who is captivated by Ithelia and wouldn't mind having a DLC within a TES Single Player experience just to flush out what here Daedric Artifact is, since it is something that needs to be explored. I think Hermaeus Mora is just a bit Scared to have another Daedric Prince that shares a small amount of power as them.

How is Mora replaced?

Especially since Ithelia is banished again, like every antigonist at the end of a chapter?

Closing this thread down as it is a necro thread from earlier this year. Now that the chapter is out for everyone, a new thread can be made based off of actual play time rather than just the global reveal content.
