What year you become involved with the TES franchise and What your first TES game was.   If i remember correctly i got Oblivion in my local PC store around 2009 - 2010, they had one of those “old cheap games” walls and i saw the Oblivion - Game of the Year edition on there for just 20 euros. Oblivion was the first game to really shackle me to my ps3. I used to just play Star Wars the force unleashed and such but i never really invested much into those games. But i easily invested at least a year into Oblivion. Making new builds (which to my 12 year old self was just “i’ll use a greatsword this time”) trying to break the game with custom spells and so on. I was ecstatic when i saw the Skyrim trailer. I got Skyrim at christmas 2011, and i played Oblivion all the way until i had Skyrim in my hands. And since then i have been playing Skyrim off and on till today. When you started becoming involved in the TES fandom   I wasn't really involved with the community all that much. I watched a few german Skyrim let’s plays but that's it mostly. I read the occasional thread on gamefaqs when i was looking for something specific but i never wrote a single thing on there. What platforms you started talking to the fandom on, and what ones you interact on now   I have not been on any sites prior to the Tamriel Vault. I mostly just played Skyrim like everyone else, i knew nothing about actual character builds and such until around early 2016 a Let’s Player mentioned “Role Playing” and i was curious what that was, went to google and searched “Skyrim Roleplay”. That brought me to Dragons The Basics of Roleplaying. I made an account right after that and started reading up on everything on the site amazed that something like that existed :D. And i’ve been on Tamriel Vault ever since that day. I made a few discussions of my own and enjoyed the very friendly community in here. How you think the fans have reacted to new games   I haven’t paid a lot of attention to those things, i know that ESO had a rough start but that's it. How the communities you are part of are different from the ones you started in (are they?)   N/A

22, it's interesting to see all these different ages. Never imagined we would have anyone in their 50 :D

I voted for Oblivion and Skyrim. My first elder scrolls game was Oblivion, i knew nothing about elder scrolls but saw Oblivion game of the year edition for 20 € in a tiny pc Shop which also sold ps3 games. I looked at the box and just decided to buy it for my ps3. It was 2009 and i was 12 Years old when i bought that with my allowance and i probably spent most of the next 2 years just obsessing over Oblivion until Skyrim came out and well im still playing Skyrim today :D

I live in a small town in Germany ^^

I really dont like close combat and i have a big thing for magic. 1. Conjurer. 2. Necromancer 3. Illusionist Why? Conjurer because i like not having to actively fight myself so i can focus on other things like crowd control. Main game i played this class was Divinity Original Sin. Summon Spider/Elemental/undead and then start coating the floor in oil and setting it on fire or set up a gas explosion while the summon takes all the damage ^^ Necromancer because i love the playstyle of debuffing and summoning. Mostly used in Skyrim and Dragon's Dogma. We all now how Necromancers work in Skyrim due to seemingly everyone on the site liking Necros so i'll talk about Dragon' Dogma. :D Used spells that would stop enemy movement by holding them down with tendrils. A spell that blinded enemys which led to them just swinging around leaving them open for attacks. A spell that slows the enemy down to a crawl. A spell that created a bubble of poisonous gas deali g massive damage to everything inside, and alot more following those examples. Illusionist because of the pure control you have over the battlefield. Used in Skyrim and Dark Souls. The Character in Dark Souls revolved around the spell Rapport. Turns enemys into friends for about 30 seconds. Waa fun to pull out on Invaders who would suddenly get attacked by the big hulking knight in the corner :D.
