Allow me to show you a passage from the TES wiki about the Imga, a race created in the series' early days:
"The Imga, or Great Apes, are native beastfolk of Valenwood. They see the Altmeri as their lords and masters and as a portrait of an ideal, civilized society. Imga go to desperate measures to emulate the Altmeri: they wear capes, practice with the dueling sword, and attempt to speak with perfect enunciation and courtly manners despite their gravelly, baritone voices.
Each Imga bears some kind of title, be it Baron, Duke, Earl, or the like, which they use when addressing the members of the Thalmor, however there are no land-owning Imga. More extreme Imga shave their bodies and powder their skin white to seem more like the Altmeri. The Imga feel that Men are beneath them as lesser beastfolk and pretend to find their smell exceedingly offensive: when Men are around, Imga hold perfumed corners of their capes to their noses."
In summary, The Elder Scrolls series contains a race of sentient apes that imitate the stuffiest of the elves. Successfully. I dare you to find me that D&D module."
Prepare to be disappointed. They put that garbage in Skyrim, they'll put it in TESO.
As for me, I just want this game to not happen. The Elder Scrolls series has possibly the best lore in gaming, but if they can't even keep it straight from game to game, they'll kill it in order to justify a million concurrent chosen ones. But hey, at least we'll be able climb that mountain off in the distance."
All that is is an artificial wall. It isn't that you can't get there, it's that there is just some bullshit reason you can't go in.
"...delivering narrative/progression solely through dialogue is a weakness in itself."
As opposed to what, a cutscene? There are books, another series staple, but since they're optional I suppose they don't count."
