Orsinium - Absolutely horrible idea

Post » Wed Nov 21, 2012 9:45 pm

Stop promoting a dlc based on Orsinium as it's completely irrelevant to Skyrim and it's conflicts - It makes no bloody sense!

Who gives a rats butt(pardon my language) about a bloody orc kingdom(if you can even call it a ''kingdom'' more like a bone/wood fortress, bah)? I don't see a connection between some orcs and Skyrim and it's conflicts between the Imperial Legion and the Stormcloaks and the lousy orcs?

Are the orcs suddenly a part of the rebellion now? The Orcish Stormgreens and Gruk'tar Greencloak have allied themselfs with the Stormcloaks?They seek to reform an alliance against the Imperial Legion. The orcs are now brothers with the Nords? Really? Is this what you had in mind? Lack of imagination I'd say as this this completely ridiculous.


So many good possibilities and you want this.. nonsense? Stop spewing this gibberish out! We could be given a dlc based on Cyrodiil. Now you might think that we already had Oblivion but keep in mind that this is 200 years after! Cyrodiil is a completely new land now and it has changed drastically. The Emperor would take a step into the conflicts as the Stormcloaks were getting out of hand etc.. The Blades could play a bigger part in it now too since they'd expand their horizon and be able to return to Cyrodiil where they'd find allies etc.. The Nords would try to invade Cyrodiil while the Imperials tries to conquer Skyrim.

There is even a road to Cyrodiil on our maps in Skyrim! If you however try to walk through it, it's blocked. With this dlc it would be opened and Horse caravans would be travelling though it! It's a brilliant idea!

Not to mention that Cyrodiil is a great sight. Who wouldn't want to visit the Imperial City? The gorgeous towns? Cheydinhal? Kvatch? Anvil? And Bruma to name a few? They'd be remade! Imagine what it'd look like today with newer engines, graphics, details etc..

You'd be insane to want some damned orc gibberish instead of this...

No. Ok, maybe a little.... but honestly your "rant" is just that, yours. Everyone wants different things and whilst it is good to hear your reasoning behind your feelings, you need to accept that some people want this. The same way in that I don't really want yet another extension to the dragonborn storyline, purely because I hated it the first time around, doesn't mean I won't buy it and play through it.

Just a thought to some of what you've said... Actually, yes, the Orcs are apart of the rebellion. Remember, Orc armourers are prized for their craftsmanship, and Orc warriors in heavy armour are among the finest front-line troops in the Empire ;)

mmh, yes Because Vampires have everything to do with the Rebellion, how about you stop acting like a ****** and just propose your idea instead of whatever the heck that was. this is why fishy sticks aren't given to random new comers.

oh and great way to start off your first interactions on this forum, you won't last long with that attitude. leave that garbage outside because this forum at least has some deficiency

This is not my ''opinion'' or rant as you call it. This is a fact! A fact you can't deny! There may be orcs in the Legion but they are fairly few and rare. The Imperial Legion consists of about 80% imperials and 20% Norc traitors. The Orcs are a small bunch of brutes and bandits/thugs - they play a little roll in this puzzle. How many Orc ''Legionnaries'' did you actually encounter in Skyrim? 3?

And how were vampires related to Skyrim? Dawnguard is okay because of Serana's [censored] I'm assuming?

There's plenty of reasons to have an Orsinium DLC actually, considering the Orc Strongholds and the recent relocation of Orsinium to the border of Skyrim. If I recall correctly there's actually a divide in the Orc community regarding their faith. Would be interesting to see how it would play out. So right off the bat there's a common theme between the Nords and imperials with the Orc's religious divide. Also, the Orcs are integrated into Skyrim via lore with the strongholds.

And your alternative is a DLC based off of going to Cyrodil? No thank you, we were just there. As much as I would love to see more blades action, their appearance left and taste in my mouth, namely Delphine and the issue with Parthunaxx. Also, you'd have to realize that they would only remake a very small portion of the Oblivion map.

I would not be opposed to a DLC based primarily in the Imperial City, but since we were there already I'd rather Orsinium. Just imagine the detail and lire an entire dlc dedicated to a city would have ala Tribunal.

Vampires have played a fairly big role in Skyrim and Oblivion as well. It's a disease actually - Not really ''vampirism'' if you can call it that. Someoen get's effected and end up sick - it's like any other sickness really(with a few up and down sides such as having to feed on people etc like cannibalism)


The ''vampire argument'' is old by the way and it's terrible.

So I guess that a disease beats out a race in regards to importance in Lore... Honestly, I'm willing to bet that you just want to go back to Cyrodil and couldn't care less about Orsinium...

So you want to go back to Cyrodiil to continue the Civil War in Skyrim? Ehhh this idea has been brought up before and quite frankly I prefer the thought of Orsinium or a part of Hammerfell (Dragonstar for example). Cyrodiil is just blah to me.

It's not irrelevant if you know the lore. I can spell it out in only so many threads before I get tired of repeating myself. Let's just say that after the player mantles Ysmir and is successfully anointed Stormcrown by the Greybeards (without turning to ash) it makes perfect sense for the Dragonborn to take a trip to Orsinium. Especially given the current political and metaphysical climate.

The orc strongholds as you call them are nothing but small wooden bandit camps. We might as well be given a dlc based on some mysterois strange wasteland where the bandits rule..

I somehow doubt Orsinium is even worth mentioning. It's small and it should just be forgotten..it doesnt deserve any attention. Also, the orcs never integrated into Skyrim. They're foreigners and they're neutral. They're scavenging the land with small wooden camps. And they don't allow anyone except orcs into their territory which is not even theirs to begin with...

The orc's are an unworthy bunch - they don't have a respectable Empire and are merely brutes who are mercenaries and such. As I have stated before, The orcs are not important in this game, they play a small role, they're nothing but mercenaries, thugs and bandits - Orsinium is probably a wasteland with small forts etc..

If you want a wasteland, go back to Fallout 3.

The Elves, Khajiits and Bretons would make a fantastic dlc.

I'm honestly convinced you're a troll. The reason the Orcs are in such a way is due to the sacking of old Orsinium. Because of that many Orcs fled and took up homes elsewhere, such as the secluded Strongholds in Skyrim. Only Orcs or those who win the favor of the cln are allowed to enter, not just Orcs.

Considering the lore behind Orcs, Nords, and Orsinium, a dlc placed there would fit very well.

I don't want Orsinium as a DLC. Instead, I want it in its full glory if they ever make a TES: High Rock, possibly even if they make a TES: Hammerfell.

Well Orsinium recently relocated to the border of Skyrim and Hammerfell, so it's unlikely that a High Rock game would include anything more than the ruins of Old Orsinium.

the Vampire argument is as terrible as your reasons for saying a DLC on Orcs would be terrible. no time soon is Skyrim featuring another province, but that is what you want? then wait for the next game. the civil war is one of the more poorer executions of skyrim and you're talking about continuing the fight? ha

Not to mention that Cyrodiil is a great sight. Who wouldn't want to visit the Imperial City? The gorgeous towns? Cheydinhal? Kvatch? Anvil? And Bruma to name a few? They'd be remade! Imagine what it'd look like today with newer engines, graphics, details etc..

You'd be insane to want some damned orc gibberish instead of this...

how about everyone just stop thinking they'll design a whole new Country even one we've seen before for a damned DLC.

@OP
There is nothing wrong with making a meaningful thread that is based on your opinion but when you complain like a 10 year old who isn't getting his way it doesn't create a strong argument.
Anyway an Orsinium dlc wouldn't be a bad idea (in my opinion) but a highrock or hammerfell dlc would be cool with me as well, also dlc doesn't necessarily have to be related to the main game story.

I actually quite like the idea of an Orsinium DLC as I always play as an Orc for a warrior playthrough and would love to see more of their culture and the land they live in. Plus lets see how those snobby elves get on acting all high and mighty in Orcish country lol.
