What would would you think of a Morrowind movie/show?

[King Rex]

Purely out of curiosity, but what would you all think of something along the lines of a movie or show focusing on Morrowind? Animated, live-action, hell, they could animate in-game models. But what would your thoughts be on such a project?
For me, personally, it would have be either live-action or anime, and a show would probably be best, in my opinion. It would also need to be dark, not Warhammer 40K dark or anything, but it can't shy away from the themes the actual game uses in the slightest.

Yeah, six or seven seasons would probably do the game justice.

Do a movie or series about the battle of red mountain with nerevar and the tribunal before they were gods fighting the dwemer. That'd be pretty cool

As long as the cats and lizards have chicken legs, to keep it unique.

It's a setting ripe with possibility for a show.

I think the setting would best be done in the style of Game of Thrones/Song of Ice and Fire. With multiple POV characters and narrative threads that simultaneously explore multiple aspects of said setting. Just some potential threads:

Great House Rivalries/Wars
Abolitionism
Colonialism
Occultism
Religion

I mean, I could go on. But the big thing is, it couldn't get bogged down in the details. It's tempting, especially as us fans would want to see every stupid thing acknowledges, but that doesn't make good stories.

It's like Star Wars: A New Hope (Good) versus Rogue One (Fan Porn)

And then a few seasons in, a certain prisoner character with uncertain parents finds himself working for the Blades. Damn, ideas like this make me wanna get into the movie industry :P

We dont need it and it wouldn't do well.

Not enough Dragons for current audience.

most modern audiences see Dragons as a key part of the Elder scrolls universe. They even added them to ESO just to appease these people. All Elder Scrolls games without dragons are just seen as lesser.

"Most" modern audiences? I contest that statement. Most modern audiences aren't going to expect dragons in such a show AT ALL unless it was set during the time of Skyrim. Skyrim is the first game in the series to feature dragons, and since most people watching a Morrowind-based show are going to be fans of the game, they're not going to expect dragons. If dragons are added in, it's liable to cause a backlash.

There's liable to be backlash without them, modern audiences dont know that dragons are not normal.

The problem is that you're making an assumption about what the phrase "modern audiences" MEANS. Your assumption seems to be people who play Skyrim have that as their only exposure to the TES universe, and that's just not true. MANY people who play Skyrim also play the earlier games, and those are the people who would watch a Morrowind-based TV series. In fact, there are many people for whom Skyrim often serves as a gateway to the other games in the TES universe, so it's pretty much common knowledge by now that the presence of dragons is abnormal. Many of those individuals are on these forums.

See you're putting all kinds of different assumptions on what im talking about.

you're bringing an exception up as if it were the gold standard.
