The new generation tries to save the Emperor on the Elder Scrolls IV: The Forgotten Repair – Assassin's Corpse is Piled

If you play Elder Scrolls IV: Forgotten Or it's recently released Forgot to remakeyou'll know the opening tutorial and its iconic “Leave the Imperial Sewer” moment. You will also learn all about the shocking deaths that arrive before you finally escape and blink into the beautiful open world.

warn! Spoiler IV of the Elder Scrolls: Forgot to remake.

The shocking death I'm talking about here is of course the assassination of Emperor Uriel Septim, which is the assassination he knew was coming. At this point, veteran fans replayed enough forgetting to know it was coming. But back in 2006, when Forget was first released, it became a ritual to unveil the story through the inevitable mythical dawn backstab.

Later, hundreds of arrows shot, and players quickly discovered that nothing can save the poor old partition, not without tinkering with the game Mods or Console Commands. Forgetting only makes real sense if the Emperor dies in the first place, so no matter how the player tries to stop it, Bethesda's developers will force it to happen.

Now, 20 years later, a new generation of forgetful fans are trying to save the emperor, and I mean trying and failing in the same way. The player is waiting, bowing and arrows to make the assassin emerge from the shadows in order to kill him before he stabs the emperor, but unfortunately, it is not good.

Some newcomers to the game don't even know that they should talk to the emperor first, so with endless playback of Mythic Dawn Goons, a room filled with death-filled assassins is reached.

Others are looking for revenge at the Dawn of Mythology, placing these bodies high.

New immigrants also found that if you don't talk to the emperor, the assassin will continue to come. They won't stop. They can't stop. They are infinite.

I found that you can ignore the Emorphorer and in the “Hold” section, the worshippers are almost infinitely sourced

Other players are garrisoning the command to see what is going on, and yes, it breaks the cutscene that should pop up after the emperor is killed.

If you are like me, when you first play Forgot, you reload the save to save the emperor and give up after multiple failed attempts. I admit, I also tried the remake of Forget, just in case the developers add some new results to the game, but the Emperor now has to be in 2025, as he had to have these years ago.
