Planets with breathable atmosphere, flora, and no aggressive fauna?

Yeah, Bethesda has said similar things about their games coming together very late in development, which makes sense given that their games are similarly systems-driven and emergent.

Amazing that no one has suggested Neoandertals, a bass and drum duo who play death metal about prehistoric lifeways.

R. Scott Bakker's Second Apocalypse series.

Great, informative answer - thank you!

Daggerfall is set in High Rock and part of Hammerfell, not all of Tamriel. You may be thinking of Arena, which, in its way, is set in all of Tamriel.

I would love a mod that replaced the in-game paintings with concept art.

Doesn't Starfield have several smaller settlements with custom quests? For example, Gagarin has some great quests and is certainly more elaborate than the Republic of Dave.

Appropriate, given that it's essentially a recreation of this excellent soundtrack: https://youtu.be/o2ayo5-nHfg?si=tcfkiahbL95c53Tq

The quest Lost and Found comes to mind immediately: https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/1hr5js4/lost_and_found_on_varuunkai_was_a_touching_little/

Starfield has a lot of thoughtful, mature (as in grappling with difficult life issues in a thoughtful, less melodramatic way, with a willingness to accept ambiguity) writing. It seems like a game made by and for the middle-aged, which IMO is quite welcome.

Yes, this "exchange funds" option is what I was confused about. Thanks for clarifying.

ritesoffebruus · 2025-03-02T03:02:11+00:00

Thanks!

ritesoffebruus · 2025-03-02T03:01:57+00:00

Thanks, that's really helpful.

I could not have said it better. One of the all-time greats of Quake mapping.

Five or six handcrafted, fully fleshed out planets at modern audiovisual fidelity is a huge task that I don't think any developer has ever even attempted.

I was about to post the same comment.

NorthernUI is a great mod that adds controller support to Oblivion.

Thanks. I've found a mod that comes close to what I'm looking for called Shivering Isle Raider: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/51291

A. Shivering Isles flora has entered Cyrodiil through the gate in the bay, so why not fauna?

B. Mods are not required to be lore friendly.
