Here are the rules:
  1. Find your favorite location in ESO's Morrowind expansion
  2. Take a screenshot
  3. Stand in that same location in the original Morrowind game that inspired the artists for ESO
  4. Take a screenshot
  5. Post them side by side here!

Has anyone else done this? I would like to see them :)

Tips:
  • I use imgur to host all my screenshots here. I take the screenshot in-game, and I have a shortcut to the folder where they get saved on my desktop. Once you make a quick account on imgur, you can just drag and drop them into your images collection, click on the one you want, and copy the BBCode with the blue "Copy" button. Probably you want to first click Large Thumbnail for a good size here. Having both screenshots at the "Large Thumbnail" size allows them to both be viewed on the screen at once, but I find the "Medium Thumbnail" too small here. Also, if you copy the Linked BBCode, then everyone can click your image to see the original size in more detail.

    How far is Morrowind in the future?

    ESO takes place in the middle of the second era, and Morrowind takes place towards the end of the third era.

    According to Isriana, there are 742 years between ESO and Morrowind: http://isriana.deviantart.com/art/The-Elder-Scrolls-Timeline-488993388
    I think it's safe to say that the events of ESO happen during the years of 2E 582-583 (Baar Dau, the rock above Vivec City, "plunged dramatically in 2E 583" according to: http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Baar_Dau).

    So @Pendrillion is right!
    700 years.

    Just as a cool bit of trivia, according to the UESP, High King Emeric was born in 2E 521 (521st year of the 2nd era), and Emeric (the guy in my profile pic!) is the leader of the Daggerfall Covenant. According to the year Baar Dau plunged, that would make Emeric about 62 years old when we can complete his line of quests.

    Let's see more comparisons!

    I really enjoy the Morrowind expansion has been my favorite so far; right up there with Orsinium. I'm looking forward to the next expansion. These pictures are awesome.

    Always when I see it, I'm like "bah, this is not my belowed Morrowind with its romantic mist". It looks awesome, but I just prefer vanilla.
