King Kurog & The Circus of Cheerful Slaughter

Just a small thread to say kudos, ZOS!

Most of my characters had already completed the Mage's Guild storyline back when Wrothgar was released, but I'm now levelling new characters (thanks to the new slots) and I just finished the Circus of Cheerful Slaughter quest.

For those that do not remember it, it's the one where Uncle She-- I mean, Sheogorath makes you an actor and asks you to kindly take part in the play he's writing. There you face the leadership of all the three alliances, facing the Pact, the Dominion and finally the Covenant.

A long time ago, one of the Covenant Leaders that you faced was "Kurog gro-Orsinium" and he looked like a random orc. That was all we had.
Today, when I entered that room, I was really happy to see that the orc was changed to the actual final design of Kurog (Ancient Orc armor and all) and that he's now "King Kurog".

It was very nice to see that you took the time and had the attention to detail and go back to an old quest from release to update this character looks.

This almost - ALMOST - gives me hope that, perhaps, you guys will get things right regarding my concerns posted on that other thread:

Who knows? One can only hope :smiley:

I was really happy to find this out nonetheless. Good job, it's always important to keep looking after your older content even when moving forward!

    For one of the last main quest (the one where you find the red jewel), you also see all the Tamriel leader. Since the Orsinium dlc release, Kurog is also a part of these people.

    I love these details too.

    Does it changes if you finished the Orsinium quest line before doing it?
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    I noticed that as well. Another similar touch is certain characters are seen being held prisoner/tortured in Coldharbor during the final main quest if you did the other side quests involving them. I don't want to spoil anything but an obvious character seen there is one you deal with during the Fighters Guild.

    I keep the main quest on one of my character to see if I can see all these characters after One Tamriel launch.
