As I was playing modded Skyrim the other day I was remembering how at one time I thought how epic it would be if it was made into a movie. Definitely not not anymore. If made today, how do you think they would butcher it? Obviously the main character would be female and the Dunmer in Windhelm would be the focus of the story.
I still think it would be cool if a great fantasy author wrote a 12 book series about the history of Tamriel or a series on the adventures of past Dragonborns or Morrowind. So many possibilities
ESO has already started assfucking the lore on the racial front. A core feature of the TES races (and a deeply-embedded excuse for having races as a game mechanic) is that they can't hybridize - The mother's race determines the child's. This isn't just a biological reality either, it's a mythic one. The races are subdivisions of higher powers dating back to the creation of the mortal realm, and arguably from different realms entirely.
Then ESO decided a bunch of the NPCs were mixed race and that was that. The ESO lore is at least partially written by redditors (seriously), and they've had their panties in a bunch over the racial essentialism of the series for a decade now. It undermines basically all of the series' interesting metaphysics, but hey, at least a bunch of faggots don't think it's icky.
The part I love about the Elder Scrolls series is that it's unreliable as all fuck, and the wise writer leans into that heavily.
Supposedly, the Bretons are all descended from a human-free-use Elven society(no, I'm not kidding) that constantly bred with their human slaves to the point where the two hybridized, so it's... technically possible?
Unless it's all lies, of course. In the Elder Scrolls, we have atleast 3 different sources for where the general races of man could have come from. Fun fact, the Redguard aren't included in any of those tales and are instead invaders from another continent entirely...
I always point to the Bretons as a great example of how race is TES is so real that interbreeding can't create a new race. The Ayleids boned these manlets for centuries, and they're still manlets. Literally, they're still men, they have nothing in common with their Ayleid ancestors. In theory, I think the only way to actually create a new race is to use TES's equivalent of deep magic to "retcon" it into existence, similar to how Auriel was divided - Ethnogenesis as a ritual.
