✭✭✭100% Nostalgia reasons. Stonefalls is s great zone... But I remember when I first started playing and my vr16 gf carried my little newb butt through quests, I just had this whoa moment arriving at the little Bal Foyen beach. Even with bad graphics, it was just really cool and I loved the almost tropical mushroom feel, Morrowind vibes, etc.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Despite how frequently I visit Bal Foyen for my farming needs, versus how infrequently I visit Stonefalls, there's no question that Stonefalls is larger and has much more to offer.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!0 -

That's bizarre; I don't remember hitting the "anonymous poll" option - I must've check it by accident.

✭✭✭✭✭Unless a bunch of bots log in on the forums and vote for Bal Foyen, I think we can safely call this round right now.

✭✭✭Stonefalls was the original game's Vvardenfell stand-in - "people liked Morrowind, we want to have a zone like that, but Vvardenfell itself is too large, let's make something similar in atmosphere".
As such, it is an automatic win. Dunmer, lava, mushrooms, daedric ruins. It's only missing the swamp.
That's what Bal Foyen was there for. So both zones really should be together. In a direct comparison, Bal Foyen loses by quite a margin. It's not that the area's design is bad, it does exactly what it's supposed to be doing - being the companion piece to Stonefalls.Edited by Varana on November 23, 2019 10:00PM0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I love Bal Foyen for the nice bay viewpoint with Maiq. Really tranquil and lovely place. Funny quests like gather guars back into family and make netches attack daggerfall scum
Stonefalls looks great, but quests... ugh, idk what is wrong with them.. maybe that brothers of strife were so weak and despite dire description there were no any danger when I was doing them on my first toon..0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Hmm...
- Bal Foyen - Former (or at least temporary closed) Concentration camp / Slave ghetto / guarded by a Stronghold. Hell, it is a slums - style city with houses so I assume it was also used as (from a lack of better term) "slave breeding facility" - with whole families born & destined from the get-go for most cruel fate ever.
- Stonefalls - The place where all the Slavers live or part of their homeland...
Not gonna vote. Can I hate them both instead ?0 -

There is. It's called "farming." It's also known as "competing against bots," so it's at least as challenging as most of the other overland content. I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!0
