📋 About This Mod
Cookie16 and Ashstaar made amazing splash screens the only thing I thought that could be improved upon was having quotes like in Skyrim or Oblivion
So since cookie16 retired from modding and gave me permission I tried to add diverse quotes some from lore like in-game books some from uespwiki but there were still alot of Splash screens left
So I also added quotes from stoic philosophers,Sun Tzu,Aristotle,Ovid, Machiavelli quotes that I think fit within the world of the Elderscrolls. I also added some jokes and one-liners from famous comedians ike Demetri Martin,Dylan Moran,Bill Bailey,Steven Wright,Mitch Hedburg since we all need a good chuckle now and then In all my quotes I tried to stay true to lore so nothing about cars or toilet humor or adult only language I also found a forum page http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/113120/eso-joke-of-the-day with lore frendly jokes and included some of them for example: An Orc walks into a bar in Cyrodiil with an ugly, one eyed, mangled parrot on his shoulder. The barkeeper looks up, jumps back, and proclaims, 'What an ugly thing. Where did you get it?" The parrot responded, "Orsinium. They are all over the place."
Go to Skyrim Splash Screens for the original splashscreens made By Cookie16,Ashstaar without the quotes
For my quotes without the awesome splashscreens go to Lore funny Wisdom Splashscreens
Or if you have Skyrim checkout my other mod Funny Wisdom Loadscreen quotes
Also if you like to read the books from the otther Eledrscrolls titles I've made this mod as well Lore Books
KNOWN ISSUES
MGE XE causes a weird blue line at the top and left side when the splash screens are displaded before the manu menu.
