Jode's Embrace, is this design intended?

Unknown_Redemption

To be clear, this post is to be of a mature conversation. Perhaps I am seeing something that was not intended and I know art IS subjective. Or this is intended, it ties to lore, and that's why the game is rated M. But I am curious if an art designer was simply influenced by Sigmund Freud. If it is the latter, can we please get some art updates.

Fixed, thanks to scorpius2k1

I'm NOT going to address the "thrust" of your post.

To post photos: upload (as you did) to imgur, then post the link to the photo on imgur here. Access the "share links" section, select "bbcode" and paste that link here.

I see a Jode's Core, a lintel figurehead, and two suggestive windows.



What's my Rorschach score?

Just you seeing what you want to see.

have you entered the main entrance turned around and realized there are no windows inside even though they are outside.
Also the roof is lower inside than what is depicted outside.

I’m not seeing what OP is seeing. @dcam86b14_ESO there are places where there are windows on the outside but none at all on the inside? I had thought I’d seen many smaller windows, but perhaps they were not all in the right places... I confess I did not look that closely but did a quick preview to refresh a survey site and was transfixed by the aspects I really like, I must confess! I love the waterfalls and the rock garden and the main hall is so grand and then the portal! Oooh, I want it, but I cannot justify for myself to spend so much for it!

Can someone tell me what's wrong with the design? I guess I'm old enough to see something mature - I'm 36. Yet I can't figure out what the OP sees.
I see something like a blue sun, a small decor detail (How is it related to a blue sun??? It is harder than Michael Kirkbride's puzzles!) and beautiful carved windows - one with a curtain.

I have no idea what I'm supposed to be seeing here. It's Jode's Core, a door frame with some head figure at the top that been marked by OP though I can't tell what importance it's supposed to have, plus two windows, one with curtains and one without.

Ok... I have some insights...

1. Khachapuri! A delightful Georgian dish with cheese. I buy it every time I visit our grocery market.



2. That Lord of Rings thing...

I'm not sure what the OP means either. I don't understand what the tiny detail above the doorway has to do with the sun. (Which I also don't understand - why is there a tiny sun on the moon?)

I agree that the inability to fit curtains over those windows would be an issue for trying to decorate, but I'm not sure what's inappropriate about it beyond that.

Finally just an FYI the game is rated M for 'blood and gore, sexual themes, use of alcohol and violence' according to the label at the bottom of this site. If I remember correctly the American age rating was bumped up at the same time as the European one, when the Dark Brotherhood was released and it became possible to murder innocents. Of course that means they can add other 'mature' content if they want to. But I'm still not sure what that has to do with windows.

For those who really are confused: OP sees female crotch
My best guess is the door ornament they interpret as Satan's doorbell

Those look really good!! Now I'm hungry........Thanks!

As to the OP........Someone has a dirty mind!

TheImperfect

Hehehe it depends on the mind looking but [snip]. As to windows outside and not inside, the place is spiritually special and when you enter the door you go to another realm.

I was going to type that myself too, but it seemed like it's going to... "derail" ...the thread again. Well done, citizen.

OP had a Freudian Slip and is trying to insinuate that ZOS was the one who had a Freudian Slip.

Good laughs all around.

Maybe my knowledge of the matter isn't exstensive enough, but while I can kinda see it in the doorframe on the left, though I think that "Satan's doorbell" (had to google this one... My goodness people come up with weird names for simple things) is placed a tad too high, and I rather agree about the window frames being suggestive, the connection with the picture on top (Jode's Core) eludes me
