A conversation between TES Online developers (a parody)

Yeah, i'd have loved to see something like that. PvP would be crazy as Akavir v Tamriel concept.

For a normal TES game, yea I could get behind that, but not for an MMO. I've had enough of 2 faction PvP. The 3rd helps keep things much more interesting.

Well we could always imagine thats the shock twist of this game, Akavir as 4th faction. Doubt it though cause they've already done what they've done. I'm hoping TES VI does Akavir invasion though, yes I am crazy about Akavir.

Actually, I imagine Akaviri Invasion is probably their planned expansion for TES:O. Its not unreasonable considering the timeframe.

Then I won't lie to you in saying that your comment was rude and unnecessary.

The following is a parody and not intended to reflect any persons living or dead. If you find yourself insulted by what follows, you're reading to much into it. I also know that parts of it aren't true, but it is a parody after all.

"Um, boss? We have a problem."

"What is it, Jenkins?"

"You know those factions you wanted to add to our new MMO?"

"Yeah, what about them?"

"Um, they won't work, boss."

"What do you mean? Everybody loves TES races! Of course they'll work."

"Boss, the Redguards and Bosmer have been killing Orsimers for centuries. Why would they suddenly be friends now?"

"Jenkins, my boy, let me tell you a little secret. Do you know what my title is?"

"Yes, sir. You're the high president bumbleputty of development and life affirming speeches."

"And do you know why I have that title, Jenkins? It's because I didn't let the little things hold me back. I don't care what you have to do, Jenkins, but you will make this work. Understand?"

"Yes, boss. Who needs lore anyway?"

The boss pounds Jenkins on the back. "That's my boy! Remember, Jenkins, only boys who live in their mothers' basemants care about that stuff, anyway. Our audience only cares about two things: pretty girls in skimpy clothing and action! Give them enough of both and they won't care about anything else. We'll be billionaires!"

"Really boss?"

"No, not really. Only I'll be a billionaire, you'll always be the second assistant to the assistant to the vice president of stuff. Remember that."

"Yes, boss."

---

"Boss, it's Jenkins again."

"What is it this time, Jenkins?"

"Sir, we've been getting complaints about how our new game doesn't follow lore properly."

"So? What's the issue?"

"We're worried that we may lose part of our audience, sir."

"Jenkins, do you know what a cash cow is?"

"Um, it's a cow that produces a lot of milk allowing its owner to sell it for a huge profit?"

"Exactly, Jenkins. Now, do you know what a sacred cow is?"

"Er, it's a cow that's held in high, sometimes religious, regard and is not to be harassed or killed? Doing so can be punished by severe torture or death?"

"Smart man, Jenkins. You may just go far in this company. Now, here's another little secret: we have no sacred cows in this company. 18-25 year old men are only interested in two things: T&A - titillation and action. If people are complaining, we'll throw more pretty girls in skimpy outfits at them and create these humongous bosses that'll keep them busy for hours trying to kill."

"Do you think it'll work, boss?"

"Of course it will work! Just look at what we did in previous games!"

"Um, boss, I think the community did-"

"Jenkins, did they or did they not create that stuff for our game?"

"Well, yes boss."

"Then is it not our property now?"

"I...I think so, boss."

"See? Give them T&A and they'll be happy as clams. Now, Jenkins, one more question: do you know what a human waste disposal expert is?"

"Er, someone who cleans toilets, boss?"

"Exactly, Jenkins. Now if you don't want to become one I suggest you ignore the naysayers and keep throwing in that T&A until we're bursting at the seams. Now go, I have another cigar to smoke. Oh, and do be a good man and retrieve for me a hundred dollar bill, my old one went out and I need something to light this cigar with."

"Sure, boss. Right away, sir. Sorry to bother you with such trivial details."

:rofl:

No, the pony is wrong, but arguing over the Internet is like wrestling with a pig in the mud: you just get dirty and the pig likes it. Anyway, I'm not interested in entering into a pissing match with anybody, so I think this thread has run its course. For those of you that enjoyed this, I'm grateful.
