"the water ripples are too fast in the remaster"
Tells me allot about yourself Typical Consumer just buy every slop that comes out and don't inform yourself of its quality first or complain if the game has obvious problems.And we are wondering why games are
getting worse and worse because why should game developers actually put any effort into there games when there are enough people buying every shit they make.

Brother you're going to have to think a lot harder than that to get anything more than a head shake from me.

Playing this finally, went with a Dark Elf from Morrowind, with a Thief star sign (since Luck tends to be the hardest stat to raise) and the Spellsword as a class since it had no wasted skills and I'd like to go Heavy Armor for a change.
Couple questions about the story:
Who is the Emperor after the intro? Uriel gets assassinated and his heirs are apparently all dead, so who's in charge of Cyrodil?
Does this series ever have a bad Emperor? I vaguely remember there being something like that in an earlier game, but it was a while ago now.
I know Skyrim starts with your character being hauled off to jail and IIRC it's because they were framed for killing the Emperor. So is Skyrim supposed to be a direct sequel to Oblivion and the character you're playing is canonically the same character from Oblivion, who was in the room when the Emperor died? Or is this one of those Zelda-like "reset the story" bullshit things where it's a "different" Emperor and has no connection to the previous game?

Oblivion takes place shortly after the event of Morrowind and 200 years before Skyrim. The Thalmor are just now beginning their rise to power in Summerset. Martin Septim is the next emperor but…
just finish the story for why the Empire falls apart.

Cyrodiil was effectively ruled by Elder Council with https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Ocato as the leader. They were running shit before the emperor died and after, so there wasn't some huge power gap caused by the fall of the Emperor as much as holy shit there are oblivion gates popping up what do we do?!?! Meanwhile the Thalmor are Thalmoring while trying not to get noticed too hard.
Skyrim is a direct sequel within the world of Elder Scrolls, but the main story is completely separated from Oblivion. Where Oblivion focused on gates and Mythic Dawn, Skyrim focuses on dragons and Nord vs Empire. Your character in all Elder Scrolls games are completely different with no connection.

Jagar Tharn imprisoned Uriel in Oblivion when he was younger, then pretended to be him via illusion, likely what you remembering. (Arena)
Lore:Uriel VII - UESP Wiki - The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages
Uriel Septim VII (/ˈjʊəriəlˈsɛptɪm/ yer-iel septmLink⏵) was the twenty-first Dragonborn Emperor of the Third Empire and the Septim Dynasty,[1][2][3]:3 though some described him as the twenty-fourth of the Septim line.[4][nb 1] He succeeded to the throne in 3E 368 after the passing of his father...

That wiki is probably the best game related wiki ever, as far as lore goes, tons of interesting stuff on it if ya into the series.

I might have already posted this a while back, but I love how Cyrodil/The Empire makes such good use of natural geographic borders. It's got mountains to the north, rivers to the east, and the capitol itself is surrounded by a massive moat. They've also got two outlets to the sea for ports. As far as game countries go, this is one with basically no weaknesses.

Navigable rivers into the heart of your kingdom aren't necessarily a defensive trait.
