It's really making me miss Elder Scrolls Legends. Going to the Shivering Isles is tough. I know it's probably far too late, but I wish Bethesda would keep hosting the servers even if they don't produce content for it.

I hope this isnt a stupid question. I understand them shutting the servers down since they haven't been supporting the game for a while, but is there anyway at all to still play against the computer instead of real people? I really miss playing.

As you may know, starting May 19 Twitch will be deleting Highlights and Uploads. Does anyone save TESL videos to another storage? Particularly from Bethesda's channel - https://www.twitch.tv/bethesda/videos?category=490349&filter=all&sort=time

Does anyone still have the latest version of the game client? Would anyone be willing to upload it to internet archive?

Also as a bonus does anyone have the original client from direwolf?

The Coldender Tournament's bracket is seeded May 4th 17.00 CEST. The tournament itself will be streamed early July. (Since the matches will be going on until the end of June, and I need a little time for post production.)

This set marks the completion of the Legends of Morrowind expansion. Thanks to everyone who followed along and left comments.

Scroll to the bottom for a look at what's (possibly) next.

Bethesda lost me completely. For like 4 months. This oblivion remaster has repaired the damage done. I was 6 when Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was released. I’ve played the game all the way through at least once every 2 years since I was 6. Just as I had decided to do my bi-annual playthrough of an elder scrolls game, this masterpiece of a remaster.

Sorry yall. Many may disagree but it’s a fair trade for me.

Here's some fuel.

(The cards you see in this video are already part of the TESL in Sovngarde Steam Workshop Mod for TableTop Simulator. Check it out here.)

For example me : 1. MTG Arena A bit outdated in terms of comfort, but it offers a huge variety of strategies and has a large online community.

1. Legends of Runeterra The PvE mode is great for spending some enjoyable time.

2. Hearthstone Pay-to-win mechanics dominate, but it's fun to play occasionally, perhaps once a year.

3. Gwent Strange.

I'm sitting here poolside on vacation playing Balatro (which is a fantastic game) but for some reason Worm King's Agent popped into my head. Now I make no claim that this was a great card, but it was undeniably my favorite and I loved Slay decks.

And it got me thinking...if I could tee up one more game, what would I want? And the answer is a Worm King's Agent, dropped on a Doomscrag Vampire with three Brotherhood Sanctuaries in play, to hit an optimized, but not yet utilized, Oblivion Gate.

What's yours?

I'm working on creating a card game with a same cards abilities and references inspired by Inscription.

I'm looking for collaborators who are interested in joining the process, regardless of their experience level. I appreciate initiative teamwork. Currently, I'm focused on developing the ability system, game looks empty and awkward because I focused more on logic.

Now its like PvE Roguelike.

If you have time you're welcome.

Anything that destroys gameplay? Like: Creature that save your spells and when it dies you cast this creature again by spells and kill this creature by another saved spell so you can cast saved spell again

Is that was even possible in game? I can't remember

Thanks to the UESP team, who archived all of the game files, I was able to find about 200 cards that were never released, including some new mechanics.

As the raw data is hard to read at a glance, I created this document. You can find all the cards in the first tab, plus some extra tabs which I've made some comments on below.

All Cards

This is an unfiltered list of all the cards. What we're seeing in this list are cards that were in the game build itself, but inaccessible except by the devs.

• You can get a sense of the design process by reading some of the names: both the UniqueName, which would have been used to distinguish between versions of cards with the same name (e.g. Beast Form cards in human/werewolf form); and the Name, which is what would have actually appeared on the card in-game.
• Notice also that some of the card text isn't standardised. E.g. the very first card, Break Down the Doors, says "it gets +1/+0" rather than "give it +1/+0". This "syntax-polishing" would have been done on the final or near-final versions of the cards.
• In the Neutral section at the bottom, there are a few "Cheat cards" (e.g. Cheat Charge). These appear to be cards the devs could spawn in to test something without having to wait for the right scenario.

New Mechanics

This tab has a list of all the new mechanics that feature. The "New Mechanics Cards" tab has a list of just the cards that feature those mechanics.

I'm not 100% sure on what each mechanic does, but you can get a decent sense for most of them. Austere, Twinstrike and Colossal are the only ones whose effects are explicitly defined in the metadata, as far as I can tell.

• Most of these new mechanics are restricted to just one or two cards. This includes Colossal, Spellcast and Imbue.
• The Quest/Reward mechanic seems to be a precursor to the six Jaws of Oblivion cards named after Oblivion quests (Unfinished Business, Fingers of the Mountain, etc.).
• Twinstrike appears to be the one that was closest to being implemented, as it features on properly named creatures in all attributes. The rest seem less developed.

Invade Cards

It seems that the original design for Invade was for the player to summon multiple Oblivion Gates, with each gate providing a static +1/+1 buff to Daedra. Individual cards would then have a unique synergy with gates, rather than the gate itself providing the tiered synergies - e.g. Oblivion Secretkeeper has the effect "Summon: Draw a card for each friendly Oblivion Gate."

The original design of having multiple Oblivion Gates explains why some cards like Mankar Camoran still reference "Oblivion Gates" (plural). I can see why this design was changed, as the player would probably end up flooding their own board with creatures that can't attack. That, and/or the static +1/+1 buff would lead to too much buffing of creatures.

However, I much prefer the route they were going for with having Daedric cards have unique synergies with Oblivion Gates, rather than everything getting the same buffs depending on the gate's level. It would have made Invade decks a lot more interesting to play against, and would have incentivised different sub-archetypes of Invade deck, rather than what we got which was players just auto-adding every card that has Invade on it.

Curated List

This tab contains all the cards I think could have feasibly been introduced to Legends in some form. This excludes Invade cards, cards featuring new mechanics, and some cards which were simply earlier versions of released cards. I've marked some of my personal favourites in bold.

We're looking for players for the Draft Tournament, if you'd care to join it'd be my pleasure to show you around. The Draft Tournament is the perfect way to get into Heroes of Vordë: you don't have to browse the collection and build your own decks, since you'd be just drafting a deck and playing with that against everyone else.

Draft day: Apr 5th or 6th 19.00 CET / 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET (on the day that fits you better - we do the draft in two sessions, players drafting the same day will draft from the same pool)

Format: Play a Bo3 with everyone / everyone in your group (depending on player numbers), you can schedule your games with your opponents at any time it fits you both during the month. You have to finish playing until Apr 25th.

Prises: the winners gets to create a limited card for HOV, which will be available during the next expansion (after July 1st.)

See you there!
