Slam dunk into the hole like that without popping out? Low single digits. Bear in mind that If the ball goes into the hole and pops out, it doesn’t count. Just the physics of getting it to drop straight in and stay there are baffling. Plenty of people hit shots on par 3s that will either dribble into the hole or backspin and roll in but just nailing it like that with the flag stick in is crazy and definitely not anything this dude will ever do in his lifetime again.
Well I'm not impressed, all he did was get the ball in the hole, he didn't even have to shoot through any windmill blades or into any tunnels.

Thats mini golf, in regular sized golf you have to navigate the tunnels yourself and then defeat the clown in hand to hand combat between the 5th and 6th holes (which if you know anything about clowns is a very tricky place to hit them).

Don't worry, you won't see the overwhelming majority of that unless you take the time to read every book you come across in game.

There's some neat stuff, but most of it is presented as pretty standard fantasy.

most of the cool stuff is from Morrowind which is over 20 years old at this point. might be a bit hard to get into. the progression of the Elder Scrolls series is just Bethesda methodically polishing away any interesting eccentricities the game setting had.

Eh, not really. For sure they've squandered a lot of the weirdness that Kirkbride introduced in Morrowind (which is incredible if you can be bothered to dig into it), but it's not some sort of linear progression to the bottom. TES Online has some ok ambitions with regards to lore. It's nowhere near Morrowind, but it does way more than Oblivion and Skyrim.

My favorite piece of TES lore is that Dwarves aren't actually short, that's just an in-universe misconception based on a misunderstanding of the translation for Dwemer being "deep elf."

Edit: Also, there's a meteor that's just hovering ominously over a city in Morrowind and nobody really knows why, but some people believe it's a turd that fell out of the devil's butthole when the God king of city... did some stuff to him.

I thought the dwarves were called that because they were extinct and nobody managed to translate their language, but they had been able to translate the language of an extinct race of giants who (of course) considered the elves from the mountains to be short.

Either way I wish there were more fantasy franchises with unique settings/lore like that instead of everything being standard Tolkien/DnD stuff (except maybe we name things a bit differently.)

Morrowind was the right balance between fantasy and alien to still be recognisable, but also weird enough to keep you interested.

Morrowind was the best, because it was literally written during a days-long whiskey bender. Some of it is just insane.

I'm still bitter about Skyrim being so bland by comparison, and also going "uh the mountain in Morrowind exploded and wrecked the whole place so there's no going back to that cool setting. Here have Northern Europe again!"

Malazan is great if you think this, representing the inner monologue of a professional soldier, is good writing

quote:

Anomander Rake, how can you bear this burden? This Burden that has so thoroughly broken my heart?
But no, that is not what so tears at me.
Lord of Moon's Spawn, you asked me to step aside, and you called it a mercy. I misunderstood you. A mercy, not for the Women of the Dead Seed. But to me. Thus your sorrowed smile when I denied you.
Ah, but friend, I saw only your brutality - and that hurt you. Better for us both, had you crossed blades with me.
Better for us Both.
And I - I am not worth such friends. Old man, foolish gestures plague you. Be done with it. Make this war your last.
Make it your last.
