Add dwemer beasts to dwemer dungeons, there is lore to support it now with dwemer crates

Dwemer wolfs and bears in skyrim, dwemer shalks and guars in darkshade, dwemer camels in volen, etc. Since lore is added to the game to support their existence, I feel their presence needs to be felt in dwemer ruins as its odd to not find a dwemer bear roaming around in the dwemer ruins of skyrim for example. doing so will add more variety to dwemer ruin life and enemy pools. I know that since they were introduced in dwemer crown crates that will trigger some people, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't happen. People were fine with the dwemer sphere being added in orsinium, I don't see why they would be mad at the beasts aside from being associated with crown crates

    Uh no thanks. It is enough they are in the crown crates. And in any case the article did say they were "rare" dwemer artefacts that were looted from the Arcane University. Even if they are in their thousands.... Leave crown crate prizes out of the main game.

    No thanks. Aside from the fact that they are clown crate mounts, they also look terrible. The last thing I need is seeing them out in some ruin...

      Whether you like them or not, those mounts are part of the lore now. you said only a thousand relics. Many of the dwemer ruins are protected still by dwemer automatrons and so many are still yet to be unplundered and so it wouldn't . the fact that they are associated with crown crates I understand will spark anger in many, but that doesn't make them non canon.

      That's a matter of opinion

      Whilst they're lore I don't feel they'd work well in a dungeon as it breaks away from the Dwemer feel everyone comes to ESO expecting.

      Also considering the above we're all going to be stating our opinions on this, there isn't a factual argument on whether something looks nice or note.

      No.

      In my opinion, the only lore that these serve is marketing lore. I can't see why the Dwemer would be making mechanical senche, for example. I can see why marketing would be making them, though.

      That's the thing tho, those little circle sentrys didn't exist till morrowind and then people accepted them. The fact the mounts are in crown crates will HIGHLY tilt peoples opinions negatively. As for the dwemer feel, the norm is dwemer sphere, centerion, and spider, and now sentry is included but the mounts were also included in this game.

      And yah agreed on the appearance thing, I think dwemer mounts look neat and some people might think they look ugly. I thought the telvanni towers were disgusting af but a few people thought they were cool

      Even the tool tip says that "why would the dwemer model after the southern cats". but other dwemer mounts like dwemer wolfs were attributed to skyrim, guars to morrowind, etc
