I prefer daggerfall from 1031

C'mon guys, it's got to be Elder Scrolls 6: Skyrim 2 legendary game of the year ultra mega version 1300 BCE

NAAH I prefer the Game of the year 1875 Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

Malachite is a real material, it's a type of copper ore

in Skyrim I believe one of the books states that in Tamriel Malachite is a kind of Volcanic crystal, similar to Obsidian, thus giving rise to calling it glass, and that armor is made by alloying it with Moonstone and salt, along with a lot of metal.

nerd ; )

It's made of raw malachite a crystal that is the unrefined version of copper

Bloody hell, people doing some necromancy over here

I love to play Nord so have no beard is like playing a nord pre-teenager, how am I supposed to be a real barbarian if I have no beard

A foot missing?

​@@ULTIMATEGAMEDUDE The images used to represent the armors in Oblivion had no feet because of a visual glitch

Ikr everyone knows it was released in 1706, jk

he stumbled when talking, chill before you get your knickers in a bunch

+Michael Malone no

+Mr Muscle Ha it was really released in 0 Ad

+Michael Malone and yet 1994 is displayed on screen

I totally agree, it's badass

Metatron I prefer daedric myself

I prefer Dawnguard Heavy Armor. Looks like a crusader's armor.

Dragonscale/dragonbone=overlord Daedric helmet does look silly...

he says oblivion was released in 1994. it was released in 2006

I hate it. Especially the gauntlets and helmet.

nords have ressistence to cold and it makes sens they are used to it (trust me that an fact btw greatings from norway) cold and crazy changin wheter is in our blood.

Shadow Dragon55 Ok but would you go outside on a cold day with completely bare limbs?

Not naked but maybe whit underwer you know ice bathing or snow bathing then jump into the ice cuz its gona feeal warm then so yeah dippeds on situasions

Deathpool 'Cause malachite is an incredibly light and sturdy gemstone.

marcianito 100% real ayy sadly it evolved out of obsidian armour or what I would translate with obsidian at least since I played the games in German. in the German translation of morrowind there's a "Vulkanglasrüstung" which is "volcano glass armour" when translated directly

Deathpool glass armor is for people who want to look cool and still wear light armor ;P

The Glass is either from Volcanoes or meteors which are mystical in many ways, Glass is said to be somehow related to Ebony which is literally the blood of gods, (Lorkhan in specific, so hilariously enough the "Blood of a divine" requirement for the main quest in Obsidian could have used ANY ebony) So it may be like the blood plasma or bile or whatever of Lorkhan and the Meteoric Glass could be similar from the Magna Ge or falling from the moons which are ALSO chunks of Lorkhan's corpse. Not sure why Skyrim called it "Malachite" since that's just a copper derivative. (They also made Orichalcum Orcish because they sound similar despite previous sources associating it with the Redguards) The guy in charge of the smithing for Skyrim was dumb.)

i remember seeing a magnavox odyssey when in amuseum all about the cruaades

kyleegeep I remember in 2091 when Half Life 3 came out!

Katie Katie Remember back during Medieval Times when Pong came out?

Remember when Call of Duty launched with the Virtual Boy in the AD 300? That was when the world really went to shit.

@@RAM3NOV3RLORD i remember when TES 6 came out in 2999!

+WarbanderLasty its probably because its called legion Armour in TES4

Alfie Spour still same

WarbanderLasty likely because it’s called legion armor in oblivion but yeah it’s basically imperial armor because well, it’s used by the empire

People in skyrim call it imperial. Imperials call it legion armor. Or so the games would imply. Makes sense to me. Naturally the imperials would consider it a specific armor for a specific group, the imperial legion. If you've spoken to Nords, it makes perfect sense why they'd just call it imperial. It's foreign.

@@samwhary5498 But it's not foreign, is it? Skyrim has been part of the Empire for thousands of years and they worship a god they believe was a Nord that was the emperor that conquered and annexed Skyrim into the Empire. At the point Elder Scrolls V takes place, Hammerfell is independent, and Valenwood, Summerset Isle, and Elseweyr have seceded from the Empire, and Black Marsh and Morrowind are apparently independent, which means the Empire consists of High Rock, Cyrodiil, and Skyrim (and Orsinium, but it's kinda small), which means Skyrim is one third of the Empire. "Imperial armor" is not foreign to Skyrim. That would be like saying the US Airforce uniform is foreign to Arizona.

2004*

Sorry i meant 900bc

If you read the description he says 2006

1410* you dumbass

THANK YOU! That's what I've been trying to say :)

Isn't it like malachite and moonstone or something?

+Aidan Hamer malachite

+Aidan Hamer this malachite is better than that malachite who try to kill everyone since this malachite use to make armor

Lmao, why is it obvious? Malachite doesn't make any more sense than glass.

@SpaghettiToaster Ebony isn't even a metal in real life, let's just assume it's magical fantasy malachite.

One is medieval armor and other is ancient rome ripoff armor

Look up it up on the wiki

I think he knows that already

+Jack Torrance I know that's what I was getting at while glass has a hardness of 7 of 10 it's structure is too prone to fracture

+Jack Torrance Well in TES universe glass armor from what I know is made from volcanic glass not regular soo that can be thing that gives sense to a glass armor sets and glass weapons

+Привал славных путников It's a bit more than volcanic glass like we have on Earth. Malachite is much stronger than any metal on Nirn, but also more brittle and therefore is canonically used to stud moonstone (which is actually metal, despite the name) armor. Ebony is also a glass, but is also literally the crystalline blood of the Missing God Lorkhan that flows out from his heart, the Red Mountain of Morrowind. Forging ebony armor is supposed to be incredibly difficult because of its glasslike properties, which is why it takes such a high skill requirement to make in Elder Scrolls games.

ahah :D

It's even shown in the opening of the video. I was disappointed not to see it discussed here.

It is the best looking armour in the game, come on! Both from visual standpoint and from the protective historical standpoint. This video just seems halfassed...

Szymon Przesłański yes and oblivion wasnt made in 1994

@@thatchannel195 he corrected it in the description plus in Oblivion it's called legion armor.

Steel Arbiter lol

+Johnnythefirst we didnt complain when there were only Oblivion on the market at the time :p Now things got more realistic, so we find the old ones very good to dress clowns :p

+Caliedhe Dosiere Not true. You can look back at Morrowind and objectively say the armours look better.

+Si Rose Oh, come on, they didn't. Don't be too nostalgic. I loved all Elder Scrolls, but nothing compares to Skyrim visually.

+Caliedhe Dosiere I know. I was absolutely dazzled when I saw Oblivion for the first time. The wide open spaces... Same with Morrowind. Same with Daggerfal even. Never played Arena. TES is just the most magical franchise out there...

Johnnythefirst I said objectively... not based on which had shinier graphics. I also still prefer Morrowind's less cliched art style.

*Oh*

No, it was released in 1979

I'm sure it was 1209

nah it was released in 200 ad

2006 B.C

5673 B.C

TES has always looked exceptionally good for its time, ever since Arena was released in 1862

He actually couldn't have because the imperial armor in skyrim is much more Roman based whereas the imperial guard armor looks much more like a Medieval armor, and therefore count as two entirely different armor sets

He should have its imperial armor in both games. Though oblivion is mostly middle ages based when viewing armor

Zachary Kelly no you’re very wrong because both the imperial city guards armor and the imperial armor in Skyrim are IMPERIAL (same empire) The only difference is that it is 100 years or so between the two eras.

Dillon Reynolds stop saying that the armor is based on some type of historical armor! Elder scrolls is it’s own universe! All the armor in elder scrolls is based on armor from earlier eras in the elder scrolls universe!

@@A-Gaymer I can't take that statement back, seeing as it IS loosely inspired by historical armor however mostly being fantasy.

Right!

+SkinnyRiverArtist thank you so much for watching it all, I have actually made a video were I talk about the two factions, imperials and stoarmcloaks but yes many more Oblivion/skyrim videos coming mate :D

Awesome man, can I ask where you're from, I can't figure out your accent at all??

SkinnyRiverArtist Italy, but I don't have a typical Italian accent when I speak English because I learnt English in England when I was very young, so it's probably a bit of a mixed accent with English being the basis ;)

I thought that exactly! Should have mentioned it when I asked the question, I'd have looked a genius.. Thanks for the response again man, nice to see a youtuber that interacts with his audience. Also, are you into larp or reenactment etc??

SkinnyRiverArtist Mamma mia :D my pleasure, thank you for your time watching the video and commenting. I tryed larp but don't like it, and I would be very interested in reenactment but I don't know of any groups in my area ;)

***** He is a fucktard thats what his problem.

No. In oblivion you had gloves, legs, boots, helmet, and torso. Skyrim had torso and legs, helmet, gloves, and boots.

+Douglas Mitchell You also had greaves

+Douglas Mitchell Morrowind had Left and right gauntlets and pauldrons as separate pieces.

+TR-8R Greaves are pants m8, that's what he means by the legs.

+Suburban Fox very true

Sir.Alex Thank you for that I had forgotten about it ^^

Also - the weights of weapons and armor.

A better version of this video is coming out and it will include Morrorwind ;)

Fantastic keep up the good work

Talk about the Dawnguard Armor.

Metatron WHERE IS IT BRUV

What about we ambidextrous people who can naturally dual wield?

No, if you know how to block with a sword dual-wielding swords can be much more effective than a sword and shield.

Eh. Whatever. Why even do we argue about stuff like this though. Swords are completely useless in today's military.

ultraboy222 if you're in full plate armor a shield wouldn't be very useful right? Though i still don't think dual-wieldning would work very well, a two-handed sword would be better i think.

ambidextrous master race!

I'm pretty sure there is a fur hat also, but not a helmet. Every little bit helps on the frigid tundra of Skyrim lol

Christopher Metz lol

There are fur gloves, bracers, and a fur helmet in Skyrim. Fur Gloves and Boots are worn by the Stormcloaks at Helgen, while bandits will sometimes have Fur Bracers, and rarely you can find a Fur Helmet, which looks terrible.

The Crimson Fucker Being that the blades are suppose to have hailed from Akavier and only went to tamriel when they where chasing the dragons there they are meant to look like the akaverian style (Asian) so it makes sense

TopHatGames1 Actually, they Blades came with the Akaviri invasion. The "Thar be Dragons here" was secondary - even back in Akavir it seems to have been secondary role for them. In the Empire itself, they were pretty much just glorified body guard/spies. Never was really sure why the Thalmor don't like them.

the Thalmor hate all humans seeing them as parts of lorhikan the traitor and seek to destroy all races of men and orsimer as part of there plan to regain divinity

TopHatGames1 Doesn't explain why they specifically hunt Blades. I know why they do it...it just doesn't make much sense to me. Meh, Thalmor are basically Nazis, so they're irrational by nature I guess.

The Crimson Fucker The Thalmor hate and hate the Blades because the Blades after the fall of the Septim line retreated from public life but continued to operate through out Tamriel in the shadows whilst waiting for another Dragonborn to appear. Before the Great War the Blades saw the Thalmor as threat to the freedom of Tamriel and the right to worship Talos as a God. The blades attempted to undermine the Dominion from the inside and thus the Thalmor retaliated and hunted them down and thus a shadow war was occurring before the Great War. Historically the Blades aiding of Tiber Septim to subjugate the HIgh elves and support of the spread that Septim was raised to godhood. The Thalmor being nationalists see these as a humiliation and blasphemy and hold the Blades accountable and thus hunt them.

+Daniel Thompson Thank you for watching and thank you so much for your time, I am planning on that video about Morrowind, hope to get to it soon ^^

+Metatron Spectacular.

Metatron No need to thank me for the time spent because honestly I would have watched another half hour of that, your videos are wonderful

+Metatron Please do, its interesting how (if i remember it right) glass armour in oblivion is very close to what we see in skyrim and in oblivion its such clown suit %)

+Metatron oh i mean glass armour in morrowind ofc, damn

DREXIAN Very much so, infact I am planning to review those too :D

DREXIAN It does have some serious fantasy armor bullshit in it, no doubt, but it does have a lot of decent stuff. I think that my biggest facepalm moment was when, in The Witcher 3, when you're getting dressed up to meet the emperor of Milfguard(Emyr von Lannister), and Geralt tells the chamberlain that he'd prefer some "studded leather armor". > Studded leather armor. > Studded leather > Studded I also love how the Witcher's alternative to just wearing a metal cuirass(in previous games, at least) was to slap on like three leather ones and hope nobody notices. Because...you know...what's lighter and more agile than a metal cuirass? Three heavy, constricting, brick thick leather ones! It's funny that people seem to think that Geralt didn't wear any plate armor in the past games because of retaining his speed and agility, yet we know that he has super human strength, so much so that plate armor wouldn't actually affect his speed that much...so...yeah.

+Dustin 1982 is too old for this video

+TheGodCold Morrowind came out after 1994.

***** Which is after 1994, so it should have been included, despite Oblivion's 1994 release.

Tom Lom ikr

More like 1914!

More like 1889 april 20th

My favorite set is the Bosmer Armor set. It's a mod. And of those sets, my fave are the leather variants, I think the standard and Elder Bosmer armors. My character is a hunter, so he needed light sets... As to cannon, I like the leather, standard steel, steel ram's head sets. Purely aesthetic choices. The companions armour is nice too... and the Nordic set.

One of my favourite games! Finished it once, replayed one million times and I have a character with every race :D There are quite a few videos abour Skyrim on my channel :3

Metatron Oblivion was released in 2006 Not 1994

Cythil Do you mean ebony, there is no obsidian armor except for in mods (Ebony is the metal blood of the dead god lorhikan who gave his life to make the planet nirn)

TopHatGames1 Ebony yes. Sorry. Mixed them up. In the lore Ebony actually is described smiler to our worlds obsidian and is not at all wood. That is likely why I made the mistake. Thanks for point it out.

+Cythil I was confused when I first heard of Ebony armour too. When I first got it in Morrowind, I thought "Wait! Wouldn't this be rather flammable? How the hell can it resist fire spells!?"

Tyler Moon Yep. A bit confusing name there. But at least there not doing the typical mistake of making metal armour less resistant against lighting. If you have full metal armour then it would work like a Faraday cage ;)

+Zukasa Gaming Then I think you should have a look at my dedicated video response where I talk about the Blades being Japanese inspired in their armour, which they clearly weren't.

+Metatron Watched it. Great video as always! :D

In skyrim the armour is the akaviri armour left behind after the dragons died out. In Oblivion the blade's armour is the armour supplied to them by the emperor to be his body guards.

Beqa Bokuchava No, I own perfect replicas of both Roman imperial lorica segmentata and 16th century takeda clan samurai armour, the blade's armour has very little to do with samurai armour (only the thigh guards) and it's pretty much a full copy of a Roman imperial armour, no doubt about it.

+Metatron You really sound persistent in that you absolutely know everything about evertything about these things :P No offense
