PTS Update 26 - Feedback Thread for Skyrim Main Quest [SPOILERS]

TiaFrye

Hi there, me again. MQ related suggestion - probably move such paintings out of Greymoor manor side quest interior since it's not locked by MQ progression and might spoil things for some players.

I did the main quest line from a newbie level 1 character. As such, the Undergrove portion seemed a bit inconsistent. Svanna drinks the elixir and makes a big deal about surviving the harrowstorm, yet I was standing right next to her without the elixir and I was...fine? In science, if you take medicine and someone in the control group doesn’t take medicine, yet the outcome for both of you is the same, it’s usually not viewed as a evidence of the effectiveness of the medicine.

Given the soul-sucking nature of the harrowstorms, I’m guessing you’re supposed to be immune because you’re the Vestige and you don’t have a soul. But I’m not the Vestige, because you made yet another new tutorial and I ignored the Hooded Figure running around Solitude. Thus, I should still have my soul, and should be dead. I’m looking forward to playing through my real character to see if there’s actual dialogue around this.

(Side note about the Hooded Figure thing. In general I think it’s a good idea to have him in a chapter zone as a guide for new players to get into the base game main quest, but in this case it seems like it would be super confusing. You’re working with Lyris, only to get kidnapped and sent to Coldharbour, to be rescued by Lyris, who is trapped in Coldharbour to rescue the Prophet, so that you can return and turn in your quest with Lyris? If I was a new player I’d be super confused.)

Maybe ... with Svargrim's paranoia but also the abandonment of his subjects, Whiterun and Falkreath decided to leave.

We see the jarl of Whiterun (Morryn). I would have liked an explanation from her about why she join the eastern kingdom.

For Falkreath ... I imagine that Eerika Skjoralmor chose either the oriental kingdom, or Colovian Estates.

But I would like an answer from the loremaster on the question.
