Talk:JoS/Henriette/37th Journal - Summer in Solstheim

I was intending on trying to push this content out asap as I've got a rough sketch for the entire questline ready, and actual time in my hands now after a somewhat busy December, but I need to actually replay the content to fact-check some shit, and to come up with additional stuff to fill some voids because the content is somewhat lacking in sex scenes currently. Expect more slow progress. --Innocent Ruin (talk) 21:14, 1 January 2022 (CET)

I’m looking forward to seeing how things go with Hermaus Mora. I don’t envy you having to find your way through Apocrypha, though. I always hate getting transported to some plane of oblivion. That’s the main reason I never bothered replaying Obvlivion much. I just do it for the DB quest line. I downloaded a save game too that just takes me right to whodunnit.

I don't actually mind Apocrypha myself, or the other planes in general either from a gameplay perspective. (Except for Soul Cairn, that place sucks.) However, from a purely creative perspective, getting to explore some of the more alien and quirky areas of lore is always fun. Gives me opportunities to explore some flavors other than just vanilla as well. (Totally not any kind of hint of what might happen here.)

I'm not quite sure what to do with Herma Mora in the end, but I want to at least deviate from the source material a little. Like, the problem is that in the lore (spoilers from the game) he kinda suggests that he wants to make the Dragonborn a replacement for Miraak, which could even suggest that he would be willing to lock the Dragonborn in Apocrypha in the same way he did with Miraak. Of course, in the game, the Dragonborn is allowed to leave after Miraak dies, and I can't know for certain what the "canon" ending for the Dragonborn's story is, but if I had to make a bet, I'd say that this is it, and that's obviously not what I want to do here! --Innocent Ruin (talk) 03:52, 2 January 2022 (CET)

Yeah, the ending of the DLC is a bit odd. You’d think they would have tried to make sense of why the Dragonborn is allowed to leave. --Hgcollins (talk) 06:54, 2 January 2022 (CET)

This is giving me flashbacks. That damn temple cave always seems so long to me. Every time I go in there it feels like it’s never going to end. --Hgcollins (talk) 06:42, 7 January 2022 (CET)

I know what you mean. Like, it's maybe a little longer than average so not that bad, but every time you think you've made it to the end, there's a new hallway with a dozen spawns and a boss battle. --Innocent Ruin (talk) 19:09, 7 January 2022 (CET)
