W5NLRTAJ5A7J5CFXNFAK here have a beta key.
Fuck, I keep missing all the keys.
ESO's launcher is giving me a lot of grief. It's just stuck there doing nothing!
[URL="http://curse.com"]Curse.com[/URL] are giving out keys to everyone who makes an account. No idea how long they will last though.
Just snatched myself a key, it's all good.

[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;43808213]Does anyone know if there's a list of all the gods that have died in one way or another? The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are Lorkhan, Almalexia, and Sotha Sil (Did Vivec actually die? He still had CHIM). I'm sure there's a few more, though.[/QUOTE] Vivec lost his godhood when Sunder and Keening were given back to the temple, I thought. I'm no loremaster, however, so I could be wrong.
[QUOTE=villa;43808982]Vivec lost his godhood when Sunder and Keening were given back to the temple, I thought. I'm no loremaster, however, so I could be wrong.[/QUOTE] Yeah, as did the rest of the Tribunal, but I’m pretty sure he kept a lot of his powers because CHIM.

Regarding the astronomy of the universe, is there any explained reason why we can only ever see Masser and Secunda from Nirn?

Trinimac died in a way. Some parts of Aka Some see Alduin as a god, though then again some think he's still alive. Bosmer worship Jode and Jone, Masser and Secunda respectively, as do Khajiit with the latter names and they're Lorkhan's body. Shor, Lorkhan and Sep are said to be dead. Miraak (same as Alduin in the way some saw him as a god) Nerevar Ayem and Seht Rajhin Reman Tsun to name a few that might be considered dead in some way or another or are actually dead.

And maybe for the same reason we can't really see the other planets in our system?
If I recall correctly Masser and Secunda aren't really there but are just tears in the void the mortal eye considers a planet because they can't cope with the idea of planes of infinity stretching whenever they look up. [editline]6th February 2014[/editline] [url]http://www.imperial-library.info/content/general-information-moons-and-morrowind-depiction[/url] Woops I was wrong
[url]http://www.imperial-library.info/content/cosmology[/url] [quote]What are Masser and Secunda? Masser and Secunda ('Jone' and 'Jode' in the Ehlnofex), the moons of Nirn, are the attendant spirits of the mortal plane. They are like the mortal plane in that they are temporal and subject to the bounds of mortality; in fact of this, the moons are dead and died long ago. The moons used to be pure white and featureless, but today their 'skin' is decaying and withering away. Their planes are likewise dying. Mortals perceive this as the moons being spheres with patches of their 'surfaces' completely eaten away; as the moons spin, they seem to become slivers or ragged crescents. These are not caused by shadows, because you can see stars through the black patches of the lunar spheres. [/quote] Yeah. Nirn, Masser and Secunda are Finite.
[QUOTE=imadaman;43809221] Disregarding the flaws I like this map. And maybe for the same reason we can't really see the other planets in our system?[/QUOTE] It is a very nice looking map. I guess I was basing my question around the scale and distance of the celestial bodies. That map isn't exactly to any scale I guess. Is Aetherius infinite?

It's kind of both. Astronomy in TES is just a way the mortals have found to explain the fact they can directly stare into the abyss when they look up.

Here'es a beta key, for whomever wants it : T9HTHAF4LRW3HMHTY4CR
Oh good, I tried that curse thing and easily got my key. ... Why does ZeniMax want my home address?
For anyone still wondering about beta keys, sign up at the website and you should get it within minutes as I did
[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;43810965]So they can hunt you down for breaking the NDA.[/QUOTE] Good thing I set all those options to "no", "no" and "no".
[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;43811231]Good thing I set all those options to "no", "no" and "no".[/QUOTE] As long as you don't attach a credit card to the account that should be fine. If memory serves, online transactions need your address to verify that it's really you with the card.
Why would anyone ever buy the super-expensive pre-order?
[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;43811785]Why would anyone ever buy the super-expensive pre-order?[/QUOTE] To play as an imperial in the aldmeri dominion, duh.
[QUOTE=DrasarSalman;43811785]Why would anyone ever buy the super-expensive pre-order?[/QUOTE] I did it for the mudcrab, obviously.
Zenimax got a perfect timing to send me an invite after I already got a key. So here you are: 4P635LJHR7RPHC9YFX35

I've never played a magic user for very long in Skyrim, but I stuck with it this time and finally got to the Adept destruction spells. Those are fun. :)
Ey up guys, I'm looking for a bit of advice concerning quality mods to start a new game of Skyrim with. A while back whilst a bit drunk I disabled all of the mods that I had had enabled for near 90 hours of gameplay, and I have concerns that the save will not be quite the same if I reboot it. So that being said, can you guys recommend as set of quality mods to start out again with (nothing major game changing, I would prefer some subtlety in the chosen mods). [editline]6th February 2014[/editline] I will be going the archery route this time around for nostalgic oblivion reasons...
