Easter Eggs

[nunc]

nah, graveyards don't exist in tes. Corpses do, but grumpy should be placed on a sunny hill or something, surrounded by a hell of a lot good herbs.

....with a nice big pillar/rock with the daedric carvings of "grumpy"

[Ixidors Bane]

Well, gravestones are in, so why not graveyards? Maybe we could add one in just for Grumpy, and maybe we could put a couple other little fun jokes and Easter Eggs on the stones as well?

I was thinking we could try to bring back a couple of the Easter Eggs fom Morrowind in as well. The Indiana Jones one I really liked.

graveyard in seyda need for fargoth. No easter eggs in tes4, it makes it to unbalenced. It should be that a deadric claymore cost millions and EXTREAMLY hard to get. like as hard as the main quest, with both of them being owned by the imperials. u get my drift.

What do you mean it makes it unbalanced? There just in there for fun and to joke around with.

And about the economy system in TES IV. We'll really just have to wait and see how well it is implemented in Oblivion, before we can make any real decisions on how much to make each item worth again. But I do agree with you, that Daedric weapons and armor (along with a couple other select groups) should be rare and expensive. maybe not as rare as you said, but not everyday, run-of-the-mill things you find in everyday caves and dungeons.

....Easter Eggs will be cool... and I would like a few in TES4 Vvardenfell.... just we are gonna have to hide them so well that only those who put them in, were told about it, or have the time to look in every nook and crany can find it...

ya like VERY hard to find

Easter egg (virtual)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

A virtual Easter egg is a hidden message or feature in an object such as a movie, book, CD, DVD, or computer program. The term draws a parallel with the custom of the Easter egg hunt observed in western nations and many parts of Europe. The term is believed to originate in the movie Return of the Living Dead, where a military officer uses it as a code word for lost U.S. government containers of zombies created by a chemical spill.

In computer programming, the underlying motivation is probably to put an individual, almost artistic touch on a intellectual product which is by its nature standardised and functional. It is analogous to signature motifs such as Diego Rivera including himself in his murals or Alfred Hitchcock including himself in the opening scenes of his movies.

... so that Easter Eggs and powerful items won't be mistaken for another. A Daedric Claymore is no Easter Egg, M'Aiq the Liar on the other hand is.

Greetings

was ma'aiq from the silgrad tower mod? cus i saw him a few weeks ago, it was funny. then i killed him. But was he buitl into morrowind or done by the silgrad tower team (hard to tell with how many mods i use)

[Ixosis]

He was put in Morrowind, cause he talked about the dragons .

As we go along making the mod I'm sure some inside jokes will form, and we can put some of those into the game.

And maybe on the gravestones put witty remarks as to why someone died. Like put on it "I told so-and-so to get _____, not _____" and two words that are closely pronounced, but one is deadly or something like that.
