This is one of those games I think I would find intensely frustrating to actually play (especially the almost always worthless loot!), but it's very enjoyable to watch. I'm a huge Morrowind fan and it's interesting to see what came before. Definitely can see the beginnings of systems that would eventually be much more fleshed out in the following games.

Episode 19 - To Elden Grove We finish up our exploration of Selene's Web and get a small glimpse of Elden Grove, a dungeon that seems to offer a very different aesthetic from what we've seen so far.

|
Episode 20 - The Mist Has Eyes We explore deeper into Elden Grove, but many foes stalk its grounds unseen, and the grove seems to have a mind of its own. This has definitely been my favorite 'dungeon' so far, and I can easily imagine how incredibly atmospheric it could feel in a modern Elder Scrolls game.

Like many other elements of lore that were fleshed out in the years after Arena, it's funny to see how things have changed over the years: in this case how the player has to go on a quest to obtain the secret location of the Crystal Tower, a place that was made one of the defining features of the Summerset Isles.

I won't go into too much detail because TES lore is complex, but the Crystal Tower is one of a series of places of power that sort-of help keep the reality of Tamriel from unraveling. It is interesting that its multi-planar nature was written all the way back in its Arena description, and it's location on the Arena map is approximately where they kept it in ESO as well.

radintorov posted:Well, it's not just in ESO, though it is a very important place in the Summerset expansion storyline. Nice...it's great they came back to this game for a bit of lore, especially considering how light Arena seems to be on story compared to the more recent entries in the series.

ESO is the first game since Arena that lets you travel all over Tamriel, and the devs have included lots of Arena locations in the world map. The Crystal Tower has been mentioned, there's also Fang Lair, Selene's Web, and the Crypt of Hearts:
