skyrim referances...

maiq : maiq once talked to a guard and he said that he was an adventurer but then stoped because of his knee. for some resone the line got stuck in maiqs head. ( arrow to the knee meme being over used)

maiq : maiq once remeberd seeing  a dragon fly by. strange..i thougrth dragons fly higther ( morrowind referance)

maiq : maiq was once in whiterun. there was a redguard that harrased maiq talking about this " cloud district" ( nazzem referance)

maiq : once went near winterhold and saw an island with nothing on it. next time maiq  went there was a gigant vampire fort ! ( how the dawnguard dlc adds new loacations)

maiq: have you seen vampires ? maiq once saw a vampire  that burn because it was day. then  i saw a vampire that walked around day not burning ( how in oblivion vampires burned  and in skyrim they dont)

maiq : for some reasons there are these crystal people. they look like they wear armor..but ist thier skin !! ( knights of order referace)

maiq( only to argonians ) : you are a lizard ? i saw a flying lizard one but it was mean and it could breath under water ...( how meny new players to the elder scrolls thougth that argoniasn where lizard people) Might be a little too...blatant. I don't know, it just seems a bit obvious.

However, the ideas are good.

For instance:

"Ma'iq wonders why it is only some vampires burn in the sun."

"Ma'iq is very disturbed by strange crystal soldiers. This one does not know where they came from, or where they are going, but he hopes they will go away."

"Ma'iq sees dragons sometimes. This one was certain that they flew higher than he saw. Ah well."

"Ma'iq does not like Nord cities. They are full of snooty people."

"Ma'iq wonders if archers always aim for the knee."

"Ma'iq sometimes sees things that were not there before. He does not know if he is imagining things or not. Ma'iq has found an entire fortress that appeared from nothing!"

and i don't know,we can have somethibg with melting snow,spear and halbierds coming back,which reminds me,do we have throwing spears,axes and knives,i don't remember talking about that,and crossbows,will we have a faction for crossbows,like dawnguard in skyrim,or different? Yes to all of the above. POLEARMS. THROWING WEAPONS. REALISTIC SPELL SIDE EFFECTS.

Okay, maybe not the crossbow part. I'm actually thinking that perhaps that could be part of the technological advancement thing - crossbows become more widespread, and people might just start inventing something more complex based on that...

Okay, now I need a Da Vinci like person in Towers.

Also, I have been meaning to point out that there has in fact been technological advancement in Tamriel. In a book, I believe Daughter of the Niben, it's stated that in earlier times, the strongest armor available was leather. So, it develops. It just hasn't developed past traditional high fantasy tech in around two Eras. Three, in Towers, although as I said, cannons might show up.
