Serious question time. You guys ready? We hope you are, because we’re about to do this.
Do you read the quest text?
We’re not kidding. That’s today’s morning question. No better way to start your day than by having your favorite MMO news site ask you if you read the quest text. Now don’t lie to us — we know when you’re lying thanks to that lie detector we installed in your keyboard. If you’ve found it and disabled it, don’t worry, we put lie detector software in our comment box just for you.
So, tell us, do you skip right over it? Do you read it enough to get the gist? Or are you a writing fiend, taking the time to savor each and every word? Drop us a line and remember, we know.

Are you in the mood for some reading that’s a bit heavier than the video game news post you’re currently digesting? We suggest you check out this Random House page to read an excerpt from the first chapter of the Elder Scrolls-based novel, The Infernal City. The few pages of text introduce us to what will likely be the book’s plucky protagonists, Annaïg and Mere-Glim.
It’s a pretty intriguing kick-off for the novel’s plot — however, the excerpt doesn’t exactly sound like our usual experience in the Elder Scrolls world. See, in our version, the heroes would systematically rob everyone on the planet blind, and then, once bored with that, would just start killin’. It may not win any Pulitzers, but at least it’s authentic.
