Skyrim Player Locks Himself in ESO Until 100% | Orsinium | The Elder Scrolls Online

This is my first ever taste of the "DLC" The Elder Scrolls Online has to offer. The Orsinium DLC is the perfect gateway for all the filthy Skyrim casuals out there. This video took me over 55 hours to create; I hope you enjoy :)
I've played Skyrim for almost 12 years now, and I've never given an "honest" try of The Elder Scrolls Online (even though it's "technically" the newest Elder Scrolls game). Every time I try to play it, I always end up putting it down just as fast.... I've always heard ESO has some great storytelling and Elder Scrolls content. So I've decided to play it like a "singleplayer" game this time around; using immersive settings and taking a slower pace. To ensure I abide by these rules, I'm also locking myself in each ESO zone until it's 100% complete.
Here are the rules:
1. As soon as I step foot into a new zone, I am permanently locked inside until it's 100% complete.
2. In order to leave a zone, the entire zone-guide must be complete; all achievements and fish are mandatory to collect.
3. Potions, buff food, and other consumables are strictly prohibited; the only exception being consumables that increase fishing luck/chance.
4. I didn't have the money to buy a new ESO account loaded with all the DLC, so I'm using my Father's. To compensate for his CP 600 account: champion points will never be used during this series (the only exception being 2 green nodes that boost fishing luck)!
5. All MONEY & GEAR are stripped from my character as I cross the threshold into a new zone. I must barter, earn, grind, or steal to equip my character from the ground up EVERYTIME!

This video is about a Skyrim player trying ESO, The Elder Scrolls Online, for the first time. In this series we're playing ESO one zone at a time. Determining which ESO zones are the best, and which ESO zone should a new player start in. Trying to play ESO as a challenge or figuring out how to make ESO more enjoyable. Figuring out the best storyline in ESO and finding hidden gems across the game. Skyrim player tries ESO, while trying to 100% complete ESO without using ESO zone guides for 100%. In this video we also try to complete the Wrothgar Master Relic Hunter achievement, along with collecting all Orsinium relics. Trying out ESO DLC for the first time, and trying to figure out what is the best DLC for ESO?

Most Goated ESO creator out there

[@FrostbreakYT]

Too kind

[@utah710]

Definitely an actual goat

[@muhammadn.cheema998]

Dude will have a heart attack in Clockwork city

[@Arttea]

the orc lore animations 👌👌🔥💯

[@FrostbreakYT]

What can I say... I'm an artist.

[@novAviator01]

Two Goated creators in one single comment section is too much

[@edc6172]

ESO content usually gets repetitive or boring here on KZbin so you are seriously a saviour rn. I can see lots of effort going into these videos and appreciate it a lot dude

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you so much! That's very kind of you to say :)

[@stephenwillet4075]

I definitely recommend doing the Ebonheart pact and Daggerfall stories before more DLC. As many characters from all alliances will eventually return. But, yes, the DLCs are definitely more interesting and full of great material.

[@Xyphyri]

honestly, each time frostbreak completes a base game faction, I think it would be cool to treat himself to some of the first wave of dlc. Thieves guild, Dark Brotherhood, and Orsinium. By then, he can just do the chapters for the most part, and play it all in order :) Makes the most sense to me

[@brandon9172]

@Xyphyri Murkmire too. Those 4 dlcs are all basically standalone, and are really good.

[@essi2]

100%, there is alot of recurring character and probably a few DLC questlines that assume you finished the basegame and not just 1 Alliance.

[@_dreamerboy]

That's probably how the ESO creators want everyone to play their game. I have never seen more polished and interesting ESO videos anywhere! You are the GOAT!

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you so much

[@Jackalnator]

I played this DLC when they gave to us for free, I just played the story missions, I can say I love the story, the plot twist in the middle, but I felt sad in the finale. Also, Thank you dude, seeing your video makes me addicted to this game again 😅😅

[@FrostbreakYT]

That's what I'm here for! Yeah my dad owned this DLC before (he bought it with real money) so I always had it when I inherited his account. I think he did the story once before too, because I'm supposed to get King Turog's outfit as a reward, and I didn't (I already had it).

[@Ginguraffe]

The lack of consequences for choices is one of the biggest weaknesses of ESO's quests. If that is really important to you, you should prepare yourself for disappointment going forward, because Wrothgar's main story actually has some of the MOST consequential choices of any of the other main zone stories in the game IMO.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Oh sheesh really? I thought Reaper's March and Coldharbour did a better job for sure giving you a handful of "real" decisions to differ your story from someone else's. Does ESO have branching story-arcs at all? Maybe a variance closer to 20-30% rather than 5% (which is what I thought Wrothgar was).

[@Ginguraffe]

@@FrostbreakYT Most of the later DLC main stories also just have fewer choices. You're never going to see the endings in main stories branch that much. The side quests generally tend to have much more impactful choices than the main stories.

[@victornavez1242]

@@FrostbreakYT No ESO don't have branching story arcs at all. At least, there isn't any with consequences. In the end Reaper's March choice have no consequences and Coldharbour, has a kind of "canon" choice being Varen and if you choose someone else, the game clumsily have the one you picked be resurected and Varen die of his "wounds" either way. Orsinium is the zone with the most choices.

[@yez276]

I haven't been interested in eso for a long time, but your series really makes me want to get back into it. Keep up the awesome work❤❤

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you! That's great to hear :)

[@dsangster93]

Personally i think you should hit up the other alliances next. But i'm enjoying the content. It's refreshing to see someone come into ESO with a fresh take, especially when they're this thorough.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thanks for the suggestion! It's definitely a pretty big toss-up right now. I'm feeling like I'd like to get back to my "roots" and do a faction storyline again; but I've also been thinking about trying Craglorn. Apparently it's story is really interesting and it's completely disconnected from the main-game.

[@arvenblack5656]

@@FrostbreakYT You can do whatever you want, but for Craglorn you might need a group for some of the things. Idk how it is now but it used to be not possible to finish everything solo. However I highly recommend you to do the other two alliances stories after that before doing ANY other DLCs. Lot of characters from the alliances come back, some very belowed characters (for example one sexy dunmer assassin from EP zone stories muehehe) and you would be missing on a lot imo by not doing those first.

[@Trigarta]

Great video as usual. I am glad to hear that Orsinium did not disappoint. This DLC is beloved in the community, but sadly not every DLC is this good. If you decide to go with Morrowind next, you need to know that there is a prologue quest for every DLC going forward, to set the mood for the DLC. The one for Morrowind is called "The Missing Prophecy". Ebonheart Pact sounds good but I would pick Daggerfall Covenant because, to me, it is the best overall alliance questing experience. Either way I am very much looking forward to your next video. Your work is just getting better and better and I really appreciate all the work you put into it while having a normal life!

[@zombiejesus7445]

Amazing channel!!!! Still stunned to find a ESO channel that isn't just bashing the game calling it dead... Or saying "I have played for 10years and have logged 20,000hours, there isn't anything for me to do"

[@LogicalDae]

Absolutely love your videos! I've been thoroughly enjoying this series and your commentary is very insightful! Thank you for breathing some life back into this game :D

[@FrostbreakYT]

Glad you like them and have been enjoying the series! I appreciate the comment

[@thenotown775]

I was literally thinking to myself, “I wonder if he dropped another eso zone”. Lo and behold you posted less than hour ago.

[@dxk65]

You likely noticed this during this zone, but as you get further into the dlc zones the world bosses and public dungeon bosses will continue to get spicier. (Some will just genuinely require a group due to mechanics). These videos have been 11/10 fantastic. Thank you!

[@derbirider6646]

I can’t wrap my head around the quality you produce, it’s just insane. I love your videos!!

[@FrostbreakYT]

Wow, thank you!

I always wait to see your next vid, glad to see you enjoyed Wrothgar as much as I did years ago and I can't wait to see what's next ! Just don't forget the dark brotherhood and the thieves's guild questline, loved them both, shorter than wrothgar but so interesting and unique you can't miss them.

[@Aten_Ra]

Cant wait to see your Elsweyr and Year of the Dragon video/videos! My favorite zones and story!

[@FrostbreakYT]

[@edc6172]

Appreciate the videos dude, hope you enjoy the next DLC’s

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you!! If they were anything like Wrothgar I'm sure I will!

[@egbert5871]

the problem with really big choices is how it will effect ALL other future DLC, like if pick to kill a main character of ESO but there then in a DLC 2-3 years form now some people they would be dead so would need to change things a lot if not imposable if they are a key character in the story

[@FrostbreakYT]

That's true, but my point was more about the path to the end being too similar. I understand if the main antagonist needs to die for plot reasons (and that they'll always die) but at least allow me to use those "big choices" to have some sort of different path to that finale. I'm perfectly fine with being the "bad guy" and making the "wrong" choices as long as the game actually rewards me for it; not a small acknowledgement in a random dialogue line. For example: Reaper's March allows you to pick the new mane for the Khajjit people. Would've been cool to introduce perhaps a trinimac option (Solgra?) along with the malacath option (bazrag) to lead the Orsimer people. They've done it before, I don't see why they wouldn't do super impactful stuff for DLC content.

[@Deinareia]

Yes, that's so much development effort, additional dialogue recording, etc. Though I'm happy that at least the dialogue in the new Oathsword Pit dungeon reflects if your character completed Orsinium main questline.

[@egbert5871]

@@FrostbreakYT ya, thats something the dlc's don't do as well from what i recall best not to get hopes up for big choices. Great video! Its funny being a necro using illegal skills in a quest but everyone sees me use it and doesn't care but if use it after the quest get a bounty on me lol

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you so much! Yeah the reach will be so awesome, I'd love to see how they did Markarth and 1,000 year old reach culture.

[@sirhans5822]

Fantastic video! I think this is your best one yet! Great orc lore segment and great editing! I really like that you noticed the variety of wildlife and the beauty of the design of this area. This is still an area I go back to on other character (or even on my main) to redo quests or to just vibe in it. I really loved the frozen ship area in this zone, the massive cliffsides, and the orcish strongholds. Something to keep in mind is that DLCs vary in size. Not all are this big. Some have really small zones and are a nice and short experience. Not that it's a bad thing but something to keep in mind. Chapters are the ones that are guaranteed to be massive. Something like the Brotherhood DLC could be a great break from your main zones, specially since your character seems to be very chaotic :) That being said I cannot wait for you to start the Morrowind, Clockwork City, and Summerset story arc. I think you will be giddy when you see how much lore there is in those areas and how they have imagined these famous areas we hear about in other ES games.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank you!! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I certainly spent a long time making it :) I will keep that in mind, but yeah I figured some are more expansive than others. I don't care too much about the length of the story, I judge it more by the quality overall. Of course having more to explore is always going to be more fun then not, but I understand why they all can't be big. I'm looking forward to that Morrowind 3-story arc that end in Summerset!

[@michellepartridge8558]

For a long time one of the museum quest items was bugged and could not be picked up, I'm grateful they've began focusing on bug fixes. I play on 4 servers, not getting all the achievements on all of them was upsetting. Also Southern Elsweyr main quest was fixed so when you cover Elsweyr you'll be able to. I really enjoy all your content. Thank you.

[@legofan4409]

SPOILERS (Rant) I think Kurog might be the best ESO villain simply because we actually get to spend a lot of time with him and talk to him. He feels like a real person, someone who jokes around, likes to eat and relax, has a problem with his temper yet has your back. Thankfully, he's also not some daedric prince or supernatural being, just a normal person yet at the same time someone who has dedicated his life to undertake a great task. Trying to elevate his race so they can stand not only shoulder to shoulder with the other races, but even taller than them, as well as keep them safe and united. We as players understand his motivations and can symphatize with his cause, though not his methods. I used to wonder what the urgency with him being crowned king was all about, but then I thought about it some more and came to the conclusion that Kurog likely wants to be king as fast as possible because once the three banners war ends, Wrothgar could be in danger. If the Daggerfall Covenant wins the redguards and bretons are still likely to attack them eventually, and if they lose they have all the more reason to be united against either the Pact or the Dominion. So Kurog wants to be king as soon as possible so that the orcs are united and ready for the coming storm. Not to mention that it does not look good to call yourself king without the support of your people, Kurog likely felt that the longer it took the greater the risk was that he would not be seen as a king by the other nations and Wrothgar would seem weak as well. As someone else mentioned as well, the lifespan of Orcs are not the same as other Mer, meaning that Kurog likely feels he needs to be king soon so he can rule over the land and indoctronate future generations so he can build his legacy. Furthermore, I think the fact that Kurog worships Trinimac is significant as well - Malacath represents vengeance and curses, of never letting go of the past and slights committed. Kurog is doing the right thing by trying to move on from the past, which orcs who follow Malacath refuse to do - The book "Wait till next time" gives a clear example: "They don't realize that forgiveness is only for other Orcs. They don't know that the Code of Mauloch demands that a price be paid for every grievance-no matter how long it takes to exact it. They think that, now we're enthusiastic members of their precious Covenant, we'll forget the razing of Orsinium and let bygones be bygones. They smile at me with their foolish, tuskless grins, and I smile back, and nod, and make an Elf joke. But inside I know that the sack of Orsinium will be paid for, many times over. And the Bretons and the Redguards will never even see it coming. Because they don't know the secret motto that's graven on every Orc's heart: "Wait till next time." This is shows the problem that every present and future orc has - they are taught to hold on to the past, and it is easily seen with the Orsimer themselves in Wrothgar as they are very reluctant to accept the changes Kurog and his new religion brings. I believe that for the Orsimer to truly ascend they must let go of all their old grudges and, what some may call, outdated ways. They must move on from worshipping Malacath. Holding on to vengeance keeps them trapped in the past. However, just like it is hard to forgive and move on in real life, most of the Orsimer cannot let go of Malacath and all of their grudges. And so they are perpetually stuck in the past. A trap of their own making, their own mindset. It's a really tragic yet poignant message to the player I think.

Just FYI, there are no alternate story paths in ESO. Some choices matter more than others, but the storylines don't have that sort of replayability.

[@FrostbreakYT]

awww that's too bad. Well thanks for letting me know.

[@T4silly]

Interesting to see that you just focus on the achievements in the Zone Guide. When you said you were gonna do DLC I was worried about you going insane from doing ALL the achievements that come with the expansions.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Ho-ho no way that would've taken forever. My entire series has been about 100%-ing each zone guide for each zone.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Originally that's actually what I "tried" to do when I started this channel. I have a video on Khenarthi's Roost, but it never really got much reception. It was all about the lore and wasn't supposed to be "eso" specific; more general. But I appreciate that!

[@NHNVrhythmguitarist]

12:13 didn’t notice this in my run through till watching your video, but that mill is spinning backwards 😂

[@FrostbreakYT]

I think it's spinning the right way isn't it? The water is flowing underneath it then under the bridge. The big scoops on the mill would be positioned the other way if the flow of water was reversed.

[@NHNVrhythmguitarist]

@@FrostbreakYT I guess it is technically spinning with the force of the water, just with how the buckets are facing, it doesn’t collect water, just propel the machinery

Loving it man

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thanks :)

[@UncleRooster]

You’re videos inspired me to do a similar challenge to this one (minus the lore books, no thanks) but instead of losing all my gear each zone I force myself to use handcrafted, upgraded, enchanted gear just to see if a Ironman style play through is viable. So far at level 35 I’m holding strong in my Orichalcum stuff

[@samuelbalderston5570]

I love your stuff. Wish it didn’t take you so long to produce these but man I’m always waiting for your next Vid. There are 3 options I think you can go from here. Either another DLC zone (Elswyer is my Fav), most DLC zones are 2 full zones so will probs be a longer video. Option 2 is continue with base game stuff. Or 3, play necrom although I would wait as knowing your love of Mora you will never leave that zone and you should play it if you ever reach a low or standstill in this series

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thanks! Hey you and me both, they just take a lot of time to "get right", you know? I could for sure do them faster, but it wouldn't feel or look as nice; but I'm still learning! Hopefully my skill increases and I can make them a bit quicker as time goes on :) Thanks for the info about those other zones. I think judging from the comments I might go back to the base-game zones after this one; or potentially craglorn. I've been looking forward to Necrom for sure; can't wait to get there. Does it require any information on the previous chapters?

[@charlietoepfer8125]

Can’t wait to get here! Out of curiosity, what are the glowing lines on your character? Are they only available for Argonians?

[@GamingYooler]

Also consider doing Dark Brotherhood before Morrowind.

[@eddardstark3774]

I liked Orsinium as well, i was never into Orc lore before this chapter. Now i really liked it, they have quiet interesting lore. Also if your character was Orc, you would have third option to be chef of clan in this spesific quest. Btw i agree with you, your choices barely matter in main stories. So keep your expectations low. But side quests however... That's where your choices are actually matter. And they will becoming better and better with every new dlc.

[@blackbird_-fb3ln]

I think you would really enjoy the Daggerfall Covenant storyline personally it has always been my main faction for the past 10+ years and to my memory the story does a great job of continuing and building from zone to zone for example things that happen in Daggerfall progress into a wider story in stone haven and so on but it’s also been 5 years since I’ve played through fully so I don’t know if I’m remembering correctly or not

[@brieflynudewitch1875]

Favorite Restaurant: Arby's you right

[@Forgefaerie]

random note - if you play orcimer character, you get extra orcimer specific options in couple of places. definitely seconding suggestion to play dark brotherhood before morrowind.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Oh that's cool! Is it "deep" dialogue or more like Cypberpunk 2077's "origin" dialogue where it just adds extra info then you continue?

[@Forgefaerie]

@@FrostbreakYT more flavor then anything, like how npc's might recognize you from previous quest chains you did with them sort of things, but still pretty cool I thought.

[@n.z7160]

the vvardenfell dlc is AMAZING, but i recommend still you finish the daggerfall & ebonheart zones first

[@davefulton4488]

I'm loving your videos. Wrothgar is still the best main story quest in ESO in my opinion. I think you should do Cadwell's Silver next, either alliance, then Morrowind, then Cadwell's Gold. Then you can concentrate on completing the Chapters and DLC in chronological order. Do you plan on doing the dungeon and zone DLC at the same time as the corresponding chapters?

[@FrostbreakYT]

yes, most people seem to agree with you: I think I'll be doing the silver (pact) storyline next :) I always do the dungeons (if I own them, or they're free). In this case with this zone, I did not own the dungeons, nor ESO+ so I didn't do them. Maybe one day ZOS will give me a free ESO+ subscription but for now that's all coming out of pocket and I'm a broke university student xD

[@n.z7160]

Frosty i cant wait for you to do the Greymoor story which is the Western Skyrim DLC main story then the Reach DLC main story, i think you will love it + the zones gives alot of answers to things in TES5. side note: there is alot of dlc's were the main story is split between diffrent dlc's

[@Scyllaya]

You probably want to do the other base game zones before more DLC, if you care about story continuity. You will meet tons of NPCs in the other alliances who will be coming back in DLCs, much like our fave Razum-Dar. And those NPCs will recognise you and you can talk to them about past adventures and what they've been up to since, that you won't get if you have not done the base game zones.

I got ESO Gold Edition years ago for $10-ish bucks. Wrothgar is considered one of the best DLCs for the game. Still holds up to this day, apparently. Dont get burned out on the game. Take a break or pace it smoothly.

03:00 man i love this vid

[@FrostbreakYT]

my sister sent that to me on instagram and asked "is this the game you used to play". Couldn't stop laughing.

[@arvenblack5656]

29:30 And just imagine that you did it on normal mode :D There is also veteran mode of the arena for actual score and perfected maelstrom weapons. First time I finished it no death I was soooo insanely happy that finally it is done xD Usually I had 1-2 deaths on the big spider lady round or the fat lizard round :D

[@FrostbreakYT]

Yes! I want to try it on vet mode before I leave :( I'm going to miss the arena :(

[@Metalders]

There is a side quest in Wrothgar that hit me different for two reasons: I usually play with a Khajiit character and I found another one in a cave looking for his pet. What hit me different was that he didn't speak like a usual Khajiit(This one) which is something I've never seen before, and it makes a point to their style of life and speaking being cultural rather than a racial trait. The other reason is that he was the first character to acknoledge my character as a Khajiit rather than a generic one. I really don't remember seeing this in the three main faction zones so it stuck with me.

[@FrostbreakYT]

I enjoyed that Wrothgar forced me to try out other side-quests I normally would've skipped. There were a couple heart-string tugging Khajiit missions in this zone. There was another one about a Khajiit named "Zhasim" who was raised by orcs (he also doesn't have the typical speech pattern). That story was about him trying to learn about his real parents, and following a trail left by his mother. It's called "A Khajiit's Tale", you can find it as a minor-side-quest in one of the POIs.

[@Metalders]

@@FrostbreakYT Yes, this was the quest! :D

[@hajislover]

How did you feel about not having to do fishing in this zone? There is a fishing achievement here, just not in the zone map achievements. They even introduced an ultra-rare (first for ESO) purple fish! 🐠

[@c0gnomen130]

It would be interesting to see you in Rivenspire or Clockwork

[@FrostbreakYT]

I plan to play all those eventually!

[@Beantidote]

Coming from a filthy skyrim casual like myself who would never touch the elder scrolls 3 with a 10 foot pole I can say with 100% serenity that Vvardenfell is my favorite dlc zone that ive played so far

[@FrostbreakYT]

looking forward to vvardenfell for sure!

[@kiwitea2451]

Morrowind is the first of a three-parter, and leads into Clockwork City, then Summerset. It's all fantastic, but you'll want to do them together. If you want to pick up a stand-alone DLC, and some very different gameplay, try Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood before doing another main faction.

[@zombiejesus7445]

Part of the challenge, do you reset your skill points? Reset your CP points (if you are over lvl50)?

[@FrostbreakYT]

Your answer should be in the description of the video; but I avoid using them entirely.

[@n.z7160]

Do the Alliance zones before going into next dlc they arent as good as the dlc zones but they introduce so meny character you want to know before you enter the dlc zones

[@novAviator01]

Thank you for the video

[@FrostbreakYT]

Thank YOU for watching :)

[@HapyyTheCat]

there is no choices in this game. there is only the illusion of choice.

Ebonheart pact Ebonheart pact Ebonheart pact wooooo let’s go I am way to excited for this

[@FrostbreakYT]

Me too!

[@juice4160]

love the lore talk more pls

[@FrostbreakYT]

Will do! Glad you enjoy it, I was worried some people might find it redundant.

[@Xyphyri]

New Frostbreak video dropped, time to drop everything

[@FrostbreakYT]

:)

[@gyalsnextman4725]

I’m sorry to had to experience orsinium

[@VitorVieira2103]

Do u plan to do Elder Scrolls VI content? If we live to see it

[@FrostbreakYT]

I've been asked a lot to try it out, if I do I will definitely make a video on it!

[@lokhir8099]

Ayyy finally

[@FrostbreakYT]

My fault (a little). This is the first zone I've actively procrastinated because I DIDN'T want to leave. I 100% Wrothgar after 3 days... but I was just having too good a time!

[@lokhir8099]

@@FrostbreakYT which is a good thing. take the time needed for the quality you provide

[@suprasmith2013]

For a challenge I recommend a vet trial

[@FrostbreakYT]

Nefas and some of the other big content creators said they would help me do a bunch of trials!

[@adamcornell1186]

There are the dark elves, high elves, wood elves and everyones favorite..........the poop elves lol.

[@FrostbreakYT]

Of course, the all time favourites.

[@Ae7herium]

Did you find Darien Gautier's note in the city's temple? 👀👀

[@FrostbreakYT]

Don't know who that is. Is that a character from a faction I haven't done yet?

[@sahinku-8885]

​@@FrostbreakYTyes, he is 1 of the daggerfall mains, just as rhazum dar in aldmeri dominion. You might remember him from dying or being lost in cold harbour when 1st facing molag bal. He will have an interesting reappearance in sommerset

[@FrostbreakYT]

@@sahinku-8885 oooh you're right. There was a funny dude in Coldharbour that helped us in the final assault. I thought it was darren, but I guess it was that guy!

[@shinobi197]

I dont know if it will help in your decision about what what zone to play next but.. There is a free Polymorph on a zone in Ebonheart as a reward 😉

[@FrostbreakYT]

What's a polymorph??

[@shinobi197]

@@FrostbreakYT It completely transforms your model into something else. For example, in the new crown crates you can get one that transforms you into Molag ball. Or A free one you can get is by beating Maelstrom arena on Veteran Difficulty. The Ebonheart zone is the only one you can get by normal questing. Won't spoil what it is but it definitely changes your appearance completely.

[@FrostbreakYT]

@@shinobi197 Cool! I'll keep an eye out for that then :)

[@danielgomes332]

Well there is allways the vampire dlc in skyrim that should be fun i believe u delve into dwemer, nord and surprisingly redguard lore considering the identity of the "Harkon" of eso wich i won´t spoil

[@Taikomo]

Did you skip Craglorn and Imperial City? They were released before Orsinium. Unless you're not planning on going in "chronological" order.

[@FrostbreakYT]

I try my best but Craglorn I think is next on my list. There's a few DLCs that kinda all have the same "no background info needed" all released around 2015ish so I just put them all in a poll and let people vote on the order. I'll get to them all, but from what I can read online there's not too much carryover from Orsinium, to Craglorn, to Dark Brotherhood, etc.

[@1Apep1]

@@FrostbreakYT They try to make every DLC work as a standalone story. However, some were pretty much released as pairs: first a chapter (that later became a DLC) and then a smaller zone DLC. Even for those they added some dialogues to explain the missing context, but of course it makes more sense to play them in order. So, if you pick any DLC that was released as a chapter, you start with a story that needs no prior knowledge. AFAIK, Gold Road is the only exception, picking up the story from last year's chapter.
