Bethesda presents in a roughly one-hour video the new area from the upcoming DLC Murkmire for the MMORPG The Elder Scrolls Online and explains why Argonians live in stilt houses.
If you want to learn more about the culture of the Argonians in the MMO ESO and further explore the Black Marsh, then the DLC Murkmire is definitely interesting for you. Before its release, you can familiarize yourself with the landscape through a video and also learn new information about the Argonians.
News from Murkmire – Musical Frogs
What can be seen? In the video, the developers introduce the new area Murkmire. This is located on the southern coast of Black Marsh. Murkmire is a swamp landscape that is mostly walkable. Although you will encounter rivers and also deep lakes, the majority of the area consists of knee-deep waters through which you wade. Therefore, there is much to explore in the DLC.
- The video shows the stilt houses of the Argonians. The buildings are built on these stilts to relocate villages when necessary due to changing swamp ground. This is demonstrated with the settlement Lilmoth, which plays a role in the novel “The Infernal City” by author Greg Keyes.
- Additionally, the developers introduce an interesting musical instrument played by the Argonians. This involves frogs that produce sounds.
- You will also see breeding grounds of the Argonians and how the people take care of the eggs.
What does Murkmire offer? The DLC is expected to have a size roughly comparable to the DLC The Clockwork City with about 15 to 20 hours of new content. In contrast to Clockwork City, you will have much more to explore.
In addition, you complete daily missions and also engage in boss fights. Moreover, you will explore a new, larger dungeon. The story revolves around the search for a Saxhleel artifact, which both the Blackguard, Argonians, and tomb raiders want to obtain.
When is the release? Murkmire is set to be released in the fourth quarter for The Elder Scrolls Online. Beforehand, the developers want to showcase more of the DLC.
