There is this impression on the people : Firearms are weapons that rendered any other weapons useless in war.Now,that may be true for the real world,but it doesn't have to apply to fantasy settings.But for it to work,it has to be implemented correctly and from the very beginning I think.Not having those "advanced weaponry" from the beginning but having it in the next game will make people FEEL other kinds of weapons useless,thus severing bonds to the previous games and killing the "TES atmosphere". Would/would not is not able to be answered. Therefore, the only question left is the issue of can/cannot. And you can't possibly answer the question question as to whether they would or not - they're so profoundly alien that any normal man or mer couldn't ever predict what they would do. Sure, they had flamestick things that shot missles but that's not a firearm like the kind we're all talking about and you know it. They had firecrackers but still never invented guns. Oh look a semantic troll! There is a difference between a sack of gunpowder and an effective weapon - just ask the ancient Chinese. But- the critical issue isn't could they create firearms, but would they and the answer to that is "no." Their only concern was creating their machine god, which is why they had bows, crossbows, ballistae, no guns- and functioning robots. Simple fact, they weren't "close to" the level of technology needed to build firearms, they had the necessary levels of technology.
