Trolls[edit]

Got to love you all, Uesp. Warms my heart to see so many trolls around. — Unsigned comment by Foacir (talkcontribs) at 01:54 on 1 April 2013‎

If you're looking for trolls, there's a lot here. Hope that helps keep your heart from freezing! Vely►t►e 02:00, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
You are all heart. Thank you.— Unsigned comment by Foacir (talkcontribs)

April Fool's Day?[edit]

I doubt this is true. As cool as it sounds, not very many people want to play as monkey lizard people. And it's unlikely that Bethesa would work on TES:VI and not Fallout 4. Also, The interview is apparently with Tim Howard. The only Howard I know of is Todd Howard, who is the Executive Producer and Game Director. If you can prove me wrong, I'd be very happy. — Unsigned comment by 99.252.134.212 (talk) at 11:15 on 1 April 2013 (GMT)

Yeah, It's april fools day when I'm reading this...groan Emzi43 (talk) 11:17, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

are you rustling my CHIMmies?[edit]

this is some kind of rain's hand fools joke right? — Unsigned comment by 166.147.72.164 (talk) at 14:17 on 1 April 2013

This is a wiki, everything we document has to be verified or it will be removed. Plus I don't know if Earth traditions are the same as Tamrielic ones. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 14:31, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

Very funny[edit]

A new game announced? With no cited sources outside the UESP? Not bloody likely! — Unsigned comment by 108.13.224.203 (talk) at 14:41 on 1 April 2013

Don't you see the youtube link? Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 14:42, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
To a fanmade simulated orchestra elder scrolls theme? Yeah, I saw that. — Unsigned comment by 108.13.224.203 (talk) at 14:46 on 1 April 2013
It's a source outside the UESP. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 14:48, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
What this article really needs is a link to alleged concept art that's actually some page on FA. — Unsigned comment by 108.13.224.203 (talk) at 15:04 on 1 April 2013 (GMT)

it's honestly quite simple: APRIL FOOLS GAGEmzi43 (talk) 15:39, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

Yeah, I get that, that's the point of this blurb. I still say someone should add that fake concept art link.
This would be great if it was real--~The wind, forsaken~ (talk) 17:21, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
Oh, this is definitely real. Our source has to remain secret, though, to protect their identity. This interview took place about two weeks ago, and reportedly they've been editing it and preparing it for a more public announcement. The YouTube video contains the music that will likely accompany the official release video. Guess all you want, but it's critical that the source's identity remains a secret. • JAT 18:05, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
I'm still wondering why an "Akavir" tab hasn't been found on the sections list yet. 4LordDagon! (talk) 18:32, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
That requires a "bureaucrat", and neither Dave or Nephele are available at the moment. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 18:50, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

aww.[edit]

i was so over hyped i failed to realize it is april first... so this is all probably a joke.— Unsigned comment by ‎76.22.177.202 (talk)

I Hope This Is Real, Probably A Joke Tho— Unsigned comment by ‎70.209.71.16 (talk)
Both Jak and Jeancey have said it is real. I was a little skeptical when I heard it from Jeancey, but Jak wouldn't fool me. So, tis real! - Chez talkemail 18:42, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
I so hope so, but why did they announce it today, of all days? Emzi43 (talk) 18:47, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

Adam[edit]

Perhaps I'm too sensitive, but I feel that including a false tribute to Adam Adamowicz as part of a joke may be in poor taste. Feel free to make me feel better about it, but perhaps it should be removed. I'm a bit torn, but it's something to think about. Eximago (talk) 22:44, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

I have no idea what you're talking about. What tribute, and what joke? • JAT 22:55, 1 April 2013 (GMT)
Ok then... Eximago (talk) 23:52, 1 April 2013 (GMT)

Placement[edit]

It had to come out of mainspace, so I think General is best. I also want to move the news to a subpage. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 00:12, 2 April 2013 (GMT)

I'd prefer to keep the news where it is, (as we've done with previous pranks) but this was probably the best movement for these pages. --AKB Talk Cont Mail 00:14, 2 April 2013 (GMT)
I was actually thinking of moving them too, and setting up a category for them. Silence is GoldenBreak the Silence 00:21, 2 April 2013 (GMT)
I guess that would be a good move (although the links should stay with the rest of the old news links). --AKB Talk Cont Mail 00:29, 2 April 2013 (GMT)
