And I thought I was being a girl for finding dwermer ruins boring...I love everything else though.
HongKongBingBong
Fuck going to blackreach
momoee
Who doesn't love Dwmer ruins, they had the best looking mecha you could see.
WaywardWriterRyu
playing oblivion makes you want dwemer ruins again, aylied ruins are freakin empty half of the time
SomethingCleverCouldGoHere
Rather go into a dwemer dungeon than go into the soul cairn
khmeriskool
Blackreach
dashisgreat
Fuck that fallout forever
SMOKINPORK
Wtf I got excited, those ruins were dope
Tranchec
I dont mind dealing with dwemer ruins except for the ones overrun by falmer. So most of them
FajitaPrinceofAllMexicans
It's not that I hate the ruins. I hate the lack of variety in the ruins.
IRolledAOneInRealLife
YOU DUN MESSED UP A-A-RON!
HOOMANGUY
I hate it if you have to go into Broken Tower Redoubt. Almost all Quests seem to be inside that shitty Fort.
RexFury
I wish the back entrances to forts wouldn't magically re-lock themselves

Buckbeak1486
Blackreach is gorgeous. Besides, the Dwemer ruins aren't that challenging.
Nykidemus
It's pretty, but fucking intensely boring. There is NO reason for it except goddamn nirnroot.
Yea. Believe me, going around trying to find 30/44 batches of Crimson Nirnroot (harder than it should have been), I quickly tired of it, too
M4jorColin
Especially the one where you get the elder scroll. That one felt liked it never ended. And the falmer are a bitch too.
asanimgurianiliealot
I usually tried to do that one in combination with another. Once you go to Black Reach once just make sure to unlock an elevator.
alchemist12345
Dwemer ruins are gold mines if you want to level your smithing.
PopatoMc
No, they're litterally gold mines.
TheButlerDidIt
arrows for days
skelitor120
and if you've already mastered the art of juggling encumberment.
Burritoheart
But how else will you level smithing? #DwarvenBowsAllDayEveryday
Andalite
Give me four hours and I'll have maxed out smithing with iron daggers
Nobody7713
Iron daggers obviously
Orion1453
Personally I used the mine/buy iron ore, transmute to gold, smelt, make jewelry method.
Bobicus5
I love the Transmute spell in Skyrim. It's such a suffererent spell compared to all the others.
WHYDONTIREMEMBERMYPASSWORD
another settlement needs our help you say?
BoozeHound001
I'm pretty sure raiders would stop if they heard of a person that shouts people to death was roaming the wasteland.
JarlPastrami
Get out of my skyrim you cunt
Cyngi
Nah, mine is more like
slipmagt
Pick up the scrap, make ingots, turn them into arrows. Level 100 smithing like a boss. I made over 16000 arrows with like 1.5 ruins of metal
Blackd0nuts
Wowowo, as someone with 3 saves who never make it past level 50 smithing.. can you explain the process?
Get a follower and go into any of the dwemer ruins. There are several pieces that can be made into ingots but they are heavy. 1/2
I smelt them in whiterun since your house is close you can get the well rested bonus of 10% xp gains. After chop wood and make arrows. Easy.
TheEmperorOfMankind40000
"And Fuck it leads to blackreach. Well time to kill the Dragon."
PsychoticPigeon
All ruins lead to blackreach
goldenspider666
Actually I think only like 3 dweller ruins lead to blackreach
Maybe more. Cause it's anoying for me cause I always end,up there when I say "lets explore a random ruin!
I ran around down there for fucking ever trying to find some reason for the place to exist. It's basically empty excepting nirnroot.
ButtsandBewbs
It looks really cool and has a lot of places to explore
Bundyjr17
Secret boss in there is pretty much it
SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE
Best place to get black soul gems.
eh?
Use unrelenting force on the giant yellow ball thing in there for a surprise;)

SKYRIM BELONGS TO THE NORDS!
HalTheMisinterpretivePornStar
Like Ayleid ruins in Oblivion. Ain't nobody got time for that
CaptAguilar
Oh the memories!
Ayleid ruins weren't that bad, but fuck Oblivion in general.
SirError
I liked oblivion more but the goddamn bandits and other things have so much hp and hit like a truck
And oblivion gates. Fuck those
Oops, I meant like the realm of Oblivion. Not like TESIV: Oblivion.
yeah i got that but still oblivion has some big flaws
Totally, not saying Oblivion is a perfect game or even close. I prefer Skyrim, honestly. Oblivion is pretty fun, though.
Arcanum3000
I fucking loved the Dwemer ruins! Same with the Ayleid ruins in Oblivion!
Maranour
When you run into Master Centurion and didn't save...
IMissTheBoobsOfOldImger
I love dwemer ruins. Am I in the minority on this one, or op just a faggot?
Zordicron
Doesn't matter, OP always a faggot.
I like some of them, but I hate the enemies in them. Dwarven spheres can go fuck themselves.
DukeDark
OP is a faggot
I've never liked dungeons as much as City/Open sky exploration. All ruins quests are a drag to me.
LucifurMacomb
I absolutely love Dwemer Ruins :D They're my favourite part of TES lore, tbh.
Dwemer ruins are cool but the majority of them take far too long to clear and have repetitive scenery (not unlike anything else in the game)
I disagree with your first point, but do definitely agree with your second.
I dunno, whenever I come across a Dwemer ruin I have to prepare myself to settle in for a 1-2 hour cave spelunk and that's why I dont.
Some of them are pretty cool, but I couldn't see the Dwemer actually living in them.
Jrhoney
That's because you aren't Dwemer.
[deleted]
Irreal
Robotic chamberpot and mobile robotic faucets.
OneBabyOneHamburgerBun
Think the only one that made me go "Oh!" was Mzulft, which appears in all ways to have once been a university.... the rest are a mess.
ColonelCasual
I think a lot of them where facilities with a few lodgings more than cities.
Sirrussel5
In Skyrim, at least. In Morrowind, most of them have beds, studies, forges, etcetera.
Durango
This. Especially the big one in Tribunal. That said, the Ayleid Ruins in Oblivion were even worse. Traps, traps everywhere.
Oh, jesus fucking christ, the ones that smash you into the ceiling have forever scarred me. First time it happened I jumped outta my skin.
Cptelectricfeel
You Fuckin get it!! They felt more like fortresses or bases no?
fivecharacters
Blackreach. I could see living in Blackreach. Fucking coolest thing ever when I discovered it for the first time.
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
I have started Skyrim sessions with the express purpose of exploring it. It's just so cool.
sergeanttbag
Yum they are not for living in they are buried there
QuziOG
It's a joke cauz they hella ded
Memari
Are you getting dwemmer and draugr mixed up?
wotemer
Yes he is
nmholt
Peasant.
Like any dwarf settlement ever. We Just cant comprehend living underground. At least they Feature beds. Ayleid Ruins did Not...
VladTheInhaler1
Sleep on the ground like a dog then.
ashbee
Beds made of rock....
... because your matress will endure the ages in a moist and warm(steam machines!) enviroment?
StJiub
If I recall correctly, Morrowind and Oblivion had beds in those ruins.
datUkrainian
They did. And you could meet that one guy that was (iirc) the last dwemer
ideologist
Ugh he was gross
AnatolyCannonlock
He had condition, damnit!
HitlersRupturedColon
That wasn't in a ruin. That was in the one guys blight dungeon, were you have to search for all the keys.
SeeTheNumbersTasteTheViolence
Dawnguard DLC - dont you meet 2 snow elves? The last ones alive in all of tamriel?
You're right, I remember it was the corpusarium right?
nightof11bangbangs
It's been forever, why was he not affected by the thing that took the rest of the dwemer?
lizardbones
There's a few places it seems logical, but most are uninhabitable
MyNameIsJesusAndIStealHubcapsFromCars
I always assume since most ruins are damaged, many living areas are inaccessible and most of what we see is industrial areas. those 1/2
2/2 areas would likely be more well built anyways and able to withstand whatever tragedy befell the dwemer.
2000boxes
well then that explains why they are ruins and not villages
whyareallusernamestakenalready
i always imagine the missing things are behind the destroyed tunnels and secret passageways
HoukouUkage
You got to remember the land was different when they were around too, alot of their civilization has faded away, now their only dungeons.
Interesting. It would be cool to see how the Dwemer lived at the height of their civilization.
demetror
go play morrowind , there is a nice book on that
Rivalyn
More importantly there's only PART of their old habitations left. The sturdiest parts, which were more likely to be industrial in nature.
Exactly, hard to fit all of it in 140 characters though, I think Dwarven Ruins are overlooked by current logic.
Cptmike
they've got plates and bowls and stuff
KingOfTheInterwebz
And scrap metal. Lots of scrap.
MrLamps
sCRAP that weighs 20 pounds for some reason...
Yeah but you can smelt them into dwarven metal which you can smelt into armor which you can enchant w fortify carry weight to get more scrap
yenagrrl
Remember going into Oblivion in Oblivion?
Zimenzo
I don't remember those being too bad, except the playthrough I ruined the challenge of them with invisibility spells...
Snickaaman
What about going into skyrim in skyrim?
TZO2k15
Now THAT was a chore...
imachikenlol
My fan theory is that we will get another game in Cyrodiil because Oblivion was partially spent in Oblivion!
OmnibusLatinName
The same half dozen or so maps. I farmed that shit :)
I hated it every single time.
candar
20% stacking invisibility on every piece of gear, cake. enchanting was maddeningly broke in oblivion.
MollyNapQueen
Barely. I haven't played that game in a long time.
DarkMunkey
I remember it was so scary a new player, but later on when speed is 80 you can finish in five minutes
PhilTheFluffiestDogOnTheInternet
I love oblivion to bits, but I legitimately stopped the campaign at allies for bruma when I needed to close like 5 oblivion gates for it.
DWandRFaremyspiritbeings
The elvish ruins bored me a lot more. Unpopular opinion?
Kalid19
The aylid or whatnot? I loved the architecture. The zombies annoyed me.
I don't feel like I ever even got loot from an Elvish ruin. Just skeletons... only skeletons. Least oblivion had the enchantment
silverbean
i member
I don't get what's the deal with that in southpark, what the fuck is up with that? Are those little shits supposed to be funny or something?
It's a statement on the cultural obsession with nostalgia and 'going back to a better time'. Offers an explanation for why Trump was elected
ErogenousEnigma
Seriously, give me a dwemer ruin any day over another god damn mother fucking fricking fracking fruit loopieied oblivion gate.
CloakedFigure
+1 for motherfucking fricking fracking fruit loopied oblivion gates LOL
Dem Clan Fears tho
But sigil stones were sooooo worth it.
MrScud
Oblivion caves man. The fucking worst
Derakor
But Remember, ONE person made each and every one of those caves mostly by themselves. not a whole team.
Increase your acrobatics, scrub. Exploit the verticality of the levels
Jump up on rocks to avoid paint trolls.
Not a matter of getting through them I just found them tedious and dull.
Ihavewaytoomanyfavoritestosort
I just started console command closing the ones that had a map I had already discovered.
Blakfyre77
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure finishing the main quest closes every oblivion gate.
Yup. Sucked the first time around when I meant to get more of those power orbs from them.
