    Have to say it does look a bit disappointing in terms of what we're getting.

    I dont care about stupid little "cute" pets and 30 hours of questing where you sneeze and the final boss dies -.-

    Okay we get a skill line but meh, was expecting more

    Everyone is entitled to feel how they want. I, for one, am beyond stoked. I'm way more ready for this than I was for Morrowind. Besides, they just touched on the large stuff coming in the update. There will be new iterations and tweaks to existing systems and gamemodes like always. We have no idea about the entirety of the update yet.

    why is Alinor full of stone buildings? Have the High Elf architects not figured out how to build buildings out of poetry? Why do the Dunmer get mushroom towers where wizards live, but the High Elves can't have a beautiful glass city?

    Is it the same boring architecture from Auridon?

    Everything I was hoping for about Summerset, it's people, all the creative weirdness Bethesda came up with years ago...they just threw it in the damn garbage with the rest of their "transcription errors".

    Barring Artaeum (which is admittedly pretty cool), Summerset is one of the blandest, most generic medieval fantasy landscapes I've seen in my entire life.

    What happened to the shining city of Alinor? Made of giant, colorful glass skyscrappers? Where's the sun birds? This is apparently what we've been waiting for for so long. This boring, generic medieval european landscape (because we don't have enough of those in ESO) is the ancient, magical, strange, mysterious Summerset Isle.

    I'm done.

    And then they try to sell it as "high fantasy" ...
    I'm also bothered they didn't even create different architectural styles like they did for Morrowind. All the cities look the same. It's Auridon 2.0.

    I'll buy it but I'm sad that it doesn't have any new dungeons. I don't do trials. The map looks pretty but very similar to Auridon so nothing new there.
    I was expecting more changes or new things like they added in MOrrowind.
    At least is $30 instead of $40? :/

    I suppose it will depend on the mount. Heck they sell mounts for 40 bucks so if it is a nice one I’ll just be happy i comes with other stuff too.

    But over all it is hard for me not to be.

    Story sounds like it will be fun, Psijic skill line has definitely got me interested...can't wait to hear more and the place looks really good. A new race would have been nice and the Gryphons look a bit cheesy but I can live with that.

    I'm hyped af! The entire zone of Summerset with like 30+ hours of questing, Razum-dar and Queen Ayrenn are back, a new skill line, jewelry crafting, a new trial and new homes(they didn't talk about them but I'm pretty sure there will be a room, small, medium, large and manor sized home).

    Well, Morrowind had 30+ hours of questing as well ... so don't expect too much.

      Just watched the trailer and read up on Summerset...meh.

      Was hoping for a new class or race orrr I dunno something exciting, crafting jewellery does nothing for me and the psijic combat line is going to be a gimmick that will wear off quickly.

      Sigh...boring.

      My personal opinions aside, the skill line will be nore more a gimmick than mages guild or fighters guild.

      Ie its not going to be a gimmick.

      This lore was around when Rowling was still a welfare mom and deciding what to do with her life.

      And yet the architecture and griffins... resembles a lot of what we saw on the productions design of Harry Potter and related movies...

      Its pretty freaking majestic tbh

      the sad thing is, it should be 10x more majestic than stone buildings. Sure, they got the impossibly high towers right, but Alinor was described as a glass city, where the architecture is said to be reminiscent of insect wings. The Dunmer get to have giant mushroom towers where wizards live, they even have a shell of a giant emperor crab that people live in, but the High Elves, the pinnacle of technology, the most magically advanced race in Tamriel, get boring stone buildings instead of beautiful glass cities?
      So the Dark Elves have weird alien architecture, where people live in mushroom towers and the shell of a giant crab, but the High Elves, the pinnacle of technology, the most magically advanced race in Tamriel, are still stuck in slightly pretty, fairly tall stone buildings? Not even a hint of a glass city? Are stainless glass windows really enough to claim that a city is made of glass?

      [Snip].

      So why is Alinor not a glass city? Wheres the insect wing like architecture? In TES, you can have armour made out of glass, so why can't the Altmer have glass buildings?

      I wrote a whole thing out but I'm too sad and disappointed to even finish it. It wasn't very nice and I feel like I'm better than that, so I'm just gonna f'off for a good while :/

      One request though. If possible, the UESP guys who so generously provided us with all that amazing datamined information, could you respond to the fact that Spellcrafting is absent from the reveal? Do you believe there is any hope at all that this system might be included later on? Or can you find a place for all those datamined assets solely within the Summerset area/quests/gimmicky Psijic skill line? You obviously are under no obligation to answer me, I'm just really curious what your thoughts are.
