Dear ZOS - RE: Vvardenfell.

Hey there devs and people at ZOS!

So, this is a bit of a message to you about Vvardenfell. I know you won't comment on this as you can't, because the zone hasn't been officially announced yet. Which is fine. You guys don't talk about things until you're close to putting them on PTS. So I don't expect any kind of reply.

I just wish to say that I am sure you guys know that Vvardenfell is a much treasured place to a lot of Elder Scrolls fans who played Morrowind. Myself included. We have lots of happy memories of travelling that beautiful, alien, partly ash covered, mysterious, Dwemer ruin filled island. I and I am sure that the other people on here realise that you can't do it exactly the same with hundreds and hundreds of hours of content. That's unrealistic to have one place like that in an mmo. But that doesn't mean it can't be very big. And of what we've seen, it certainly looks sizeable. But do bear in mind;

Craglorn has 18 delves and caves.

And that is for a zone that would be smaller in landmass than Vvardenfell.

Please don't split the island in two and give it as 2 DLC's. if we are going to Vvardenfell, let us feel the thrill of rediscovering the island all in one.

Give the island the same feel of wonder and awe that Morrowind gave. Your world designers and builders are just superb. Zones look beautiful. Let's see Red Mountain spewing out smoke in the distance. Let's hear Silt Striders in the distance as we watch the sunset. Let's have some crazy Cliffracers. Let's see some beautiful ash rain. Let's have some beautiful music to go with it (your composer Brad and the sound team are also superb.)

Let us love Vvardenfell as much as many of us did the first time we set foot on the island.

Thank you. :smile:

    @DigitalShibby Last I heard there had been multiple datamined, so you're probably covered there. :)

    They better don't release Vvardenfell without a new class or new skills.

    A new class has been partially datamined, byt it may not come with Vvardenfell.

    So, where on Vvardenfell does everyone think Naryu Virian comes from? :D

    Also, given her particular allegiance with a certain faction, do we think it's possible we will get to join the Morag Tong? Or will we be against them and Naryu?

    I was just about to say, I hope we get a decent Morag Tong storyline or a chance to join them. However, Naryu is well aware that you joined the DB, who...um...don't exactly get along with the Morag Tong, so that could be interesting.

    A large part of Vvardenfell's atmosphere in Morrowind was due to the low draw distance/ash storms. Which is also what made it feel so large when it was actually smaller than Oblivion. It will be very interesting to see it recreated with ESO's draw distance, and inevitably, it will feel quite different.
