I’m talking 80s/90s casting rules because I know a Skyrim movie today would be a black or Hispanic female protagonist. But I’d love to see a legit Skyrim adaptation, or a long series about the Dwemer.

I like Morrowind, the story was interesting, had mortal gods vs old gods vs modern religion as a major theme and everything looked alien. Add conflict between the 3 major houses while also having the empire trying to bring guilds and expand their influence while the locals are very xenophobic - you also root for the xenophobes. I think it could make a great series with a lot of intrigue and nuance.
I root for the xenophobes in most contexts. Mass immigration is war.
Yeah, I'd second Morrowind for how much more alien everything is in that game, at least it would feel distinct and unique. Plus watching someone professionally Dagothposting IRL would be hilarious
I’ve downloaded that one but haven’t played it yet. Also they are working on a massive Morrowind mod for Skyrim
Gonna be honest: Morrowind is a bad game. It has the makings of one of the best games of all time, but its age weighs it down to a point where it's just not fun. The combat is dreadful, the dialogue is almost entirely unvoiced and consists mostly of giant walls of text, inventory management is a chore, some of the skills are completely useless while others are mandatory no matter the build. The list goes on.
At the same time, it probably has the best world building of any game I've ever played and the freedom you get is insane. On a proper engine with some very thorough rebalancing, it could easily be top 50.
