When it comes to famous game series, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls and Fallout franchises probably come to mind. Both owned by Bethesda, the two series have exploded in popularity since their conception, nearly 30 years in the making. Keen players have noticed, however, that since Bethesda's acquisition of the Fallout series of games in 2007, that more and more connections between the two worlds have started to appear.
This has lead to multiple fan theories that speculated that the Elder Scrolls and Fallout games took place in the same connected universe. Bethesda shot this down in 2017, but that hasn't stopped fans of the series from noticing the connections. Easter eggs in video games are nothing new, but the sheer number of them between the two series has fans guessing and theorizing left and right.
5 𝔍 ♏ Nirnroot Look-Alike
The biggest and most noticeable Easter egg in Fallo🦋ut 4 that links back to the Elder Scrolls is the Experimental Plant you can find on the Brotherhood of Steel ship, The Prydwen. According to the in-game logs, they discovered the herb and used it to make a tea which proved to be quite addicting.
Another interesting detail is that the log entries in-game are titled with "NRT," which could possibly be shorthand for Nirnroot, a well-known glowing plant from the Elder Scrolls. The two plants also grow exclusively near water or the mouths of rivers. This Easter egg sugg🗹ests that Fallout takes place in the past and the Elder Scrolls series would take place in a radiation-filled future. That explains the cat and lizard people.
4 ൲ Who Stole Your Sweetroll?
A favorite line from the NPCs found guarding the various settlements and cities of Skyrim asks who stole our sweetroll, or why we seem so upset. The joke originated in the first Elder Scrolls title- The Elder Scrolls: Arena. Since its earliest days, it's evolved into the famous condescending comment from Skyrim, and then found itself inserted into the nuclear wasteland of Fallout.
This line seems to have inspired the addition of the famous dessert into 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout 3. Lucy Palmer, ♌one of your fellow survivors, bakes them for you in the starಞting level. You can also find them in run-down bakeries in your adventures.
3 Dragonborn Hel꧟met ⭕Sticker
Another popular icon from the Elder Scrolls is the Dragonborn helmet that is featured highly on promotional images for The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. While it's certainly 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:not the best armor in the game, it's one of the most recognizable pieces.
In Fallout 4, you can find copies of the magazine Taboo Tattoos, which allows you to add cosmetics to your character's face. On issue number 12, in the bottom right corner, you can see a skull wearing the Dragonborn's helmet.
2 Lorenzo's Oblivion Crown
In Fallout 4, there's a man named Lorenzo Cabot you can find in the basement of the Parsons State Insane Asylum. He was trapped there because of the helmet he's found wearing, which apparently drove him insane. Fans of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion will quickly recognize it as the Ayelid Crown of Nenalata.
Granted, Fallout's version of the crown is somewhat different than how it appeared in Oblivion. In Fallout, the crown drove him insane and granted him strength, telekinesis, and protection from various types of damage. In Oblivion, the crown protects the wearer from magic, but doesn't drive them insane.
1 ꩵ Elder Scrolls Magic i🌳n Fallout
As with any game on the scale of Fallout and Elder Scrolls, some storylines must be cut before they release the full game. For Fallout 4, there was an entire town and quest that was inspired by the Salem Witch Trials, taking place in Danvers, the same location as the real-life trials. During the quest, you would have encountered children who had gained magical powers due to radiation. The spells they would've used were taken directly from the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:magic in Skyrim.
Ultimately, the magic system was entirely too complex to put in the final game. They merged Danvers with the town of Salem in the final game and ended up cutting the quest entirely. While seeing the end results of this would've been impressive, it's understandable why it had to be cut.
