All THE ELDER SCROLLS Main Themes (Up to 2014)

[@linkcorriere846]

I was born 87 years ago. For 65 years I've ruled as Tamriel's Emperor. But for all these years, I've never been the ruler of my own dreams. I have seen the gates of Oblivion, beyond which no waking eye may see. Behold, in darkness a doom sweeps the land. This is the 27th of Last Seed. The year of Akatosh, 433. These are the closing days of the Third Era, and the final hours of my life. 13:07

Arena: once upon a time Daggerfall: war is coming Battlespire: an ancient evil Redguard: a man's adventure Morrowind: a new hope Oblivion: return of the king Skyrim: heroes rises Online: we stand together

[@bubblekingmay553]

Martin Sand agreed!

[@lm1289]

[@bryanmanuel4945]

Oblivion is more like the return and end of the king while Skyrim is more lik fall and rise because the dragonborn rises and the Septim empire falls.

[@mattaffenit9898]

Martin Sand What I got from them: - Arena: In the time after the oceans drank Atlantis... - Daggerfall: Hark well, battle-brothers! War has come once more to our doorstep, and we brave sons of the Iliac Bay shall ride out and meet the enemy! - Battlespire: Behold now, you who dare to s disturb me - behold the face of true fear in its purest form, and despair. All mortals shall quaver in my presence. - Redguard: Adventure! Pirates! Adventure! Dragons! Adventure! - Morrowind: Go forth heir of Nerevar, amd face thine destiny. - Oblivion: Roma invicta! - Skyrim: Furir Ragnárr Komungr! Fyrir Allfađír Óđínn og mođir Frigga! Til Ragnarökkr! - ESO: We are the last hope of this world. We will stand strong - united.

Elijah_Gay you do realise elder scrolls 6 is coming out right? We might see a new dragonborn and the prophecy might not have been fulfilled. Especially because alduin isnt dead, he’s just been banished to the end of time and out of sovngarde. We might see more of the big boi in ES6 but its in high rock so idk

[@zxnblxx9824]

The_Official_MH5 please no more dragons 😒😩

[@bigwizz72]

The_Official_MH5 if we grt high rock we would also get Hammerfell bc high rock is to damn small

[@minepose98]

That prophecy was certainly fulfilled. The first line refers to the first game and the false ruler splitting the staff of chaos into eight parts. The second line refers to the second game with the Numidium and the warp in the west. The third line refers to the fall of the tribunal due to the destruction of the heart of lorkhan, the stone of red mountain being destroyed in the third game. The fourth line refers to the Septim dynasty ending and the amulet of kings, the stone of the White-Gold tower being destroyed, the fifth line is the state of Skyrim as of the game, and the sixth line clearly refers to the evens of Skyrim. No new dragonborn. Also, lore dump.

"Excuse the gloom, but none may know of this meeting. The nature of my trouble is darker, still... A year ago, King Lysandus of Daggerfall died honorably on the field of battle. He was as loyal a subject, an ally, and friend, as you are. I did grieve for him... But his spirit does not rest. With his spectral army, he haunts his former kingdom, crying for revenge! I do not know why a good and loyal man would be so cursed... Perhaps you can find the answer, and close shut the marble jaws of Oblivion, bringing peace to his soul. I ask this as your emperor... And as your friend. I have one... Lesser request. Several years ago, I wrote a letter to the queen of Daggerfall. It never arrived... The letter was of a sentimental and... Personal nature. If you find and destroy that letter... I will be grateful. Now my champion... Rest well this night, for tomorrow, you sail for the kingdom of Daggerfall!"

I agree the famous TES theme started with morrowind and I am glad Bethesda decided to go with it for the other games too of course it not identical its the same theme but sped up in oblivion and added choral elements in skyrim

[@stefanm.734]

Same composer: Jeremy Soule. He had the great idea to make all the themes match, but still make sense for their prospective games. This gives the feeling of being the same, yet different, much like the series itself. I'm not going to go into which is the best version since that is very much subjective, but it did start with Morrowind, and we have to give Nerevar credit for defining the standard.

[@brendangarvey1496]

I love how they all have a different feel depending on where/when they take place. I've played many RPGs and ARPGs in my life but TES is the only one that made me feel like I am the character.

[@Caboose47]

As much as I like the other games, Skyrim will always hold a special place as one of my favorite games of all time. I've been playing ever since I was 7 back in 2013. And I'm still playing 10 years later. I just love the old Scandinavian Viking feeling to it. I've had a great interest in Vikings and the like. My family also tells me that I'm from a heritage of Vikings, from Sweden. So, I feel I can relate to it, even if just a little bit. I've seen people bash on it, and I can understand some of their points. But, at the end of the day, I have an unbreakable bias with Skyrim. You can call it blind nostalgia or whatever. No one can change my mind about the game.

[@emmastark3095]

i think morrowind is when they finally realized what they wanted to do with TES. morrowind, oblivion, and skyrim’s themes all tell a story. and i know that they all have the same composer, but that doesn’t mean that they all necessarily have to have the same sound. i think that was a conscious design choice

[@slendygaming8038]

Cinder Punch it's not one it's not even made by the same people so that's my case it also does not makes send with the storyline in the other games

[@davidmeinen9791]

ESO was made by ZeniMax, Bethesda's parent company. And despite its status as an MMO, it is remarkably close to a traditional Elder Scrolls game. Maybe not at launch, but definitely now.

[@rebeccatomlin3121]

ESO did a bang up job with the soundtrack, I think. Enough new, stunning scores like Northpoint Nocturne, but not afraid to rearrange and give you those old nostalgic songs.

[@ruban8135]

The Elder Scrolls: Arena music, never heard it before till just now. It's really good.

[@ninethyme3121]

If you're interested you can play arena (and daggerfall) for free they have the downloads on the elder scrolls websites

[@Comrade_Alpaca]

I love how you can kind of hear aspects from most of the other themes all in the ESO theme, it's imo the most powerful theme out of them all, but Daggerfall's my favorite

[@tommyvogel9595]

Everyone agrees the top three are morrowind oblivion and Skyrim

[@lorenzoantenucci7216]

Redguard is long and amazing.

[@Luka-zi9kv]

[@quinlamintheshaman9222]

[@connorm8702]

Yeah they're good but I also like Battlespire

[@appleoferis4172]

My favorite of these, or should I say the one that has the most effect on me, is Oblivion. This is because I grew up with Oblivion and I've spent as many hours of my youth listening to Oblivion as I have Skyrim. Every time the intro begins my breath catches and I forget how to breathe. When I recently went back and replayed Oblivion, I started crying the moment I left the sewers because the nostalgia and memory of the game just bowled me over. I can pick Oblivion music out of anything at this point. Skyrim music, too, because of course the Skyrim intro is so distinctive, but I've spent full summer days at the keyboard doing nothing but playing Skyrim. The chanting is just my wave and pumps me up, makes me feel like I could be the one fighting dragons and exploring the treacherous mountains. But, of course, the Morrowind soundtrack was the creator of both and that game is on my list of "play before I die" games. A beautiful song that doesnt have quite the effect on me as Oblivion, but just as much respect. Then there's the Elder Scrolls Online theme, and HOO! That tune is ingrained in my memory. It reminds me of the time I spent in the main screen while I waited for my family to hop on and screw with Molag Bal's plans, running across Tamriel to clear every world boss, skyshard, delve, and dolmen. The memories of teleporting and/or running across Tamriel for Psijic portals and saving each and every piece, soaking in how beautiful the game is and admiring every little skeleton with its own story. The dog sitting in Alik'r Desert, and the time spent with Razum Dar and Darius, and the people I both met and parted ways with on ESO. The place where I found a community of people patient enough to teach me how to run trials, gear builds, and just hang out in general. Banding together to either do dumb stuff like a chain of dancing skeletons, or zerg in Alliance war, or even decimating dragons in Elsweyr and halting the Harrowstorm in Western Skyrim and digging up shiny rocks for a house and a wandering person. Just... These games have been so much of my life and hearing the soundtrack to any of them gets me emotional and happy.

[@chance36]

No. I do love Skyrim and Oblivion but Shivering Isles is probably my favourite DLC for any game. I’m replaying it now actually. I think Bethesda needs to make another Shivering Isles DLC for a future ES.

[@legionairesunny5507]

Top five for me 5) Battlespire- I find it to be over all nice and dark. The soft choir is a nice touch. 4) Redguard- Its upbeat sounding, like the hopeful feeling at the beginning of an adventure. 3) Arena- The first theme, where most pull their inspiration from. 2) Morrowind- It feels mysterious. Huanting. An ancient tale yet to be told. 1) Oblivion- It feels like home. When ever I think of the Elder Scrolls this is first game to pop into my head. I just love it.

eso is a great game now

[@ferdinandl.martinez1739]

[@elpedante1466]

I think the one that deserves the real title of "no Ending" is Morrowind, but I see why you would give it to Skyrim.

This comment is underrated underrated. This would be great.

[@enochthejokeold]

I played daggerfall and a whole year later the theme still fills me with dread.

[@stefanm.734]

You can say what you want about the rest of the early Elder Scrolls themes, but whoever made the music for Daggerfall really nailed it.

[@alphabravo6418]

And the TES 6 theme !

[@silphaer5353]

Morrowind is the best of these.

[@morro782]

Silphaer Agreed, but they're all great

[@storm1550]

*In my opinion* The Oblivion theme is the most Nostalgic, the Skyrim theme is the most epic, the Morrowind theme is the most calm, the ESO is just great and i love it but nothing special, and Arena and Daggerfall uhmm... They are good!

[@silphaer5353]

That's fair. I personally don't feel the same nostalgia for Oblivion, because it was several years after I played Morrowind that I played that one. Also, Morrowind was my first true, open world, RPG game. They are all good, and Oblivion and Skyrim are great, but I think Morrowind is the best at embodying it's world.

[@ahhhaaron]

Silphaer its funny because i have the same nostalgia for morrowind because it was my first tes gamd, but for some reason the daggerfall theme i like the best, idk the tone of it is awesome

[@lhoney309]

[@imperialwatch4535]

Lola Honey yes finally found someone who said that!

[@robertwyatt7188]

Personally I had only played skyrim up until a few years ago when I got oblivion & online, I later played daggerfall and morrowind. What I have to say is that I never understood why people thought the other themes were good when I had only played skyrim. When I played the other games I realised why. When I played morrowind for the first time, I saw the culture and architecture, I traveled the cities and killed a million F@cken cliff racers and every time I heard the theme play I just had to pause the game and think about the journey and the world. The music in the elder scrolls is made to shape the form of the game that you are playing. Arena is like a fairy tale, Daggerfall is a story of war and politics and game of thrones stuff, Morrowind is adventurous and rich with culture and lore, Oblivion is an tale of heroes and legends, and skyrim is an epic of bold and powerful proportions. My message overall is... F*CK CLIFF RACERS

[@pablito-e]

I can imagine the Battlespire theme playing while a giant monster rises from the ground.
