So from what I understand, Corprus is a selective proccess to ascending with Dagoth Ur. The "Unworthy" just get zombified and enslaved and the "worthy" join Dagoth Ur in a hivemind of his dreams (the sixth house priests and ash vampires are that). So this is probably exactly what was meant to happen, although some more squids and living brass instruments should be controlling the zombies. Or that's what I understand at least.

[@JaceMorley]

@@Marcara081 I think the main issue is that NPC rendering in Morrowind is very expensive because of how the models are built. It's one of the reasons later Bethesda games cut down on the number of equipable slots. Morrowind can make more raw draw calls in a scene than a game like Cyberpunk 2077 does. OpenMW improves things for static meshes via object paging significantly (which is why you can get Distant Land for nearly free in it) but there's not as easy a solution for NPCs.

The underwater healing to keep from dying thing reminded me of this manga called Cleavatess One of the main characters is a woman hero who got forcibly resurrected after being killed by a demon to help raise (or at least keep alive) the last heir of a kingdom the demon destroyed. She’s still technically dead, but is kept “alive” through the demon’s blood that it used to resurrect her. Thing is, the blood won’t let her die as long as the demon wills it and in one part, she needs to retrieve a sword from the bottom of a flooded mine, so she hides in a barrel to sink to the bottom to avoid the things in the water that killed the sword’s original owner. However, she’s constantly feeling the agony of drowning and has to force herself to ignore the involuntary panic from the lack of air, the feeling of drowning and self preservation drive to get back to the surface as she sinks to the bottom. Pretty wild

[@bradthegiant]

That actually is wild. When ya play games you dont think about that self preservation instinct. Id never be able to be a mighty adventurer. Id start to run out of air and just go home.

[@resurgam_b7]

33:26 I think adding railings to the walkway and bridge so you actually have to fight Dagoth Ur for a minute instead of just jumping off and going straight for the heart, or convincing him to jump off into the lava would go a long way towards making the fight actually challenging. Though, as is the way in Morrowind, there's only so much you can do to make it more difficult without just making it frustrating due to the limitations of the game engine.

Re 5:58: The irony about the 'Gold (and Silver) are the only real currency and paper money is worthless' cult is that they completely misunderstand why Gold was used as a currency in the first place. It had no inherent value other than looking nice. What made it good for coinage though, was that it's a very distinctive metal that is easy to cold-forge and can easily be melted, it's not very reactive and doesn't tarnish, has a very distinct weight difference to anything that looks similar and is thus easily verified according to pre-weighted scales, is rare enough to have an easily controlled supply of and very importantly, *doesn't actually have much use out of luxury goods and currency*, making it a good exchange medium for the things that do find use. It also lead to Gold being useful for high value and international trade, and the value fluctuations were mitigated by it's use as a luxury. The entire point of Gold as a currency was it's *perceived* value in combination with it's uniqueness as a social construct, the very thing people criticize about modern fiat currency. But it was also a fairly volatile currency. There is a reason why the Gold standard only really existed for around 100 years. The main currency throughout history was actually Silver. Silver was used for a similar but slightly different reason. Silver is very abundant, making it something that can be easily accessed anywhere and thus facilitating trade across borders and distances as well as making it a stable domestic currency able to facilitate small denomination trade. Just like Gold, it's easy to cold forge and stamp. It is also fairly distinctive, so again, just like Gold, you can set a good standardized weight measure of value and it's hard to fake. Meanwhile, what was the price of silver often backed against? Grains and tool-metal. Because throughout history and throughout the world, various grains were where the 'real' value that many proponents of Gold espouse lies. Because you can't use Gold or Silver to eat. You can't make a hoe or a scythe out of it. You can't build with it. You can't use it as seedstock to sow a field. You can't use it to maintain livestock in the Winter. More importantly, controlling the food supply was an important part of feudal and pre-feudal governance, because it allows for solid seasonal planning and insurance against natural disasters. So you take the grain, and you give out the metal in exchange. So what happens in the apocalypse where you don't have a use for these metals anymore? They become useless. I think the Metro games showcased a good example of what a post-collapse currency would look like. They trade in Bullets. Because Bullets keep you alive. The funny thing is that in modern times, Gold has actually gained real material value due to it's use in electronics. So it has more 'real' value today than it ever had when it was a currency. Disclaimer: I'm just some guy on the internet. If this topic interests you, do your own research.

[@Green-Raccoon777]

It also helps that Gold does not rust, unlike other metals, further increasing it's value.

[@SproutFarms]

Making all the normally interesting NPCs also unique in the mod is crazy. I can feel the love for Morrowind from the mod.

[@themurmeli88]

34:02 I think it's very much feasible. Add global value for a counter which tell how many "hits" you have to do, aka how many times you have to kill "Daggoth Ur" in total before you can finally destroy it. You hide the real heart, "tick the hidden by default -flag", add a "fake heart" on top of it, and add a script to it, that when hit, it creates a visual like fire shield around it, which only goes away when you kill "Daggoth Ur" (e.g. magic with constant effect that gets added/removed), and reduce the counter by one and resurrect Daggoth Ur, it keeps doing that until the counter hits zero, upon which point it replaces the fake heart with the real one. As for the bringing the other Daggoth's back to life, you can just add copies to the heart chamber that are disabled by default, and then have them be enabled, when ever their counter part is killed, or you enable them between the heart strikes or something. You could even add functionality that killing the other Daggoths reduces the strike counter before the fight. Morrowind's scripting is VERY limited in functionality, e.g. it's near impossible to create an NPC that would protect you specifically against the dark brotherhood assassins, and nothing else (like a house guard), but that specific one is very much doable.

[@egoalter1276]

The game has a robust faction system that allows for slecifoc hostilites that can even be triggered on and off. TR uses it in Old Ebonheart to make NPCs at the fighters guild spar. I suslect the problem js, the DB assasin has no unique faction assigned besides generic enemy, but you could create a custom one for it, and replace it with your version.

you dont wanna go to the mall or hospital for zombie apocalypse, those places are usually the worst. Best solution would be a big store with gardening equipment and building tools, usually not something people think of first, you get plenty of makeshift weapons, generally have multiple water sorces and before water systems are cut off you have "infinite" number of water containers around. The only downside is not having a ton of food (before you attempt on growing some) but at the end of the day it's an issue with most places.

Fun fact about Restore Magicka, it works the exact same way in Oblivion, except it increases your base regeneration by the amount the enchant/spell does. The only downside, the Magic Effect isnt flagged for player use and mainly there for Restore Magicka Potions. With the Construction Set or xEdit, you can change that though. It's busted as hell though since oblivion *does* have auto restoring magicka. Another fun fact about Oblivions magicka regeneration, despite being based on Willpower it's not the only factor. So even getting your Willpower reduced to 0 *won't* make Magicka stop regenerating. It just takes 133 Seconds to do so. Its a whole thing and the exact formulas for the Willpower vs Intelligence (Regeneration Rate vs larger Pool) is on the UESP; But with maximized fortify magicka enchantments on all gear, an Apprentice (birthsign) High Elf (race) not only takes ~250% elemental magic damage (doesnt really matter once you have 100% spell absorption either through gear or spells), they do get the benefit of 23.4 points/second Magicka Regen in a 850 Magicka Pool with maxed out Stats and fortify magicka enchantments. This is about 36 seconds to full magicka which does coincide with.... Fun Fact #3 about Oblivion Magicka Regeneration: 100 Willpower makes it so *any* magicka pool will regenerate in 36 seconds, regardless of how large the pool is. Can be 100, 1000, probably even 50000 total magicka, it'll always take 36 seconds at 100 Willpower. Fortifications beyond 100 *do* increase the rate and subsequently reduce the time needed to regenerate, of course. But most Fortify Magicka *enchantments* (sigil stones) are stronger in comparison. Lore accurate as to why High Elves are actually feared the way they are? In my Bethesda Software game? Impossible. That's why they shrunk High Elves down in Skyrim. To make them more approachable? Either way, play a High Elf Female in Oblivion and the only way people look down on you is if they are standing on a stepping stool or staircase, you actively look down on guards who reach barely your shoulder height. A full grown tall man. Even Nords only reach roughly to or below your chin. No wonder Altmer have a superiority complex. If we take spellmaking into account.... well... there's spells that you can make that cost nothing and restore + regenerate your magicka faster. (Some spell chain/loop with Drain Intelligence, Drain magicka, Fortify Intelligence, Fortify Magicka & Fortify Willpower) Spend magic to make stronger and more plentiful magic faster? Yeah, that's why they took spellmaking out of Skyrim, isnt it? :p You dont just start out by drinking vegetable soup and become *Death, Destroyer of Broadspectrum Marketable Game Design*.

13:07 I don't think that's true though, in fact it's the opposite.

15:50 I *think* I know what you're referring to. My dad told me about this. In the 1970's, this Californian guy named John Caldwell (who was kind of the black sheep of his family) smuggled vine cuttings out of France from a famous winery.

[@Sasorilolo]

Being sick at home sucks but it doesn't suck with this!

[@JaysMissingKidney]

May you be rid of the blight in rapid time.

[@Giantcrabz]

happy halloween!

[@Moewenfels]

At least it aint Corprus! Get well soon :)

[@cheese3764]

​@@Moewenfelsor is it?

[@SundayLunchcrime]

I appreciated the ad being short, wonderful video as always!

[@WinstonAnimeRight]

I just discovered your channel and have been binge watching your content. You're a GREAT content creator and I love everything you put out! Thanks for showing Morrowind some love, brings back memories from when I saved my allowance and bought an Xbox and would go back and forth with my friends at school as to whose Nerevarine was the strongest.

[@ackthegreat6697]

My nerevarine could beat yours!!! No joke though, I feel that Bong Water the Redguard could squeeze a person's brain out of their skull like a fucking pimple with the amount of super steroids made with alchemy and the old OG morrowind soul trap + increase attribute spell exploit he did in his life.

[@TheJester_011]

21:33 im glad my tip made it in the video there was a funny moment in the stream because he was looking for a glass axe and was mid jump to the ghost gate when he saw my message and he instantly reloaded and started walking to the hlaalu canton p.s anyone who reads this should check out the streams :)

[@JusteazyGames]

2:00 Missed opportunity to say "in-corprus-inating it into their flesh"!

[@karolynemuniz4054]

damn, know Im missing MickyD hope that Irish lad is doing ok

[@creepypeach]

I love your videos so much dude, you’re my fave KZbinr and I hope you keep making Morrowind videos for a long time! I know Tamriel Rebuilt isn’t finished, but I’d love to see you make a video with anything from that overhaul mod!

[@raider3254]

Interesting detail about traps, if you use telekinesis to interact from a distance you can avoid the damage/status effect

[@whirl3690]

These videos got me to finally give Morrowind a proper shot, and I have loved it so far. Before this, I played and loved both Skyrim and Oblivion, and Morrowind is just as good. Each one has certain things they do better and worse. Morrowind definitely has my favorite main quest and enchanting system, and Wraithguard just generally being an amazing item is so nice, since usually quest-required items can be downgrades to what you already have. I do think it's still a bit silly to end up as the Arch-Mage at the end of the Mages Guild quest (though it makes a lot more sense here because Trebonius's incompetence is made painfully clear), but I appreciate that they didn't feel the need to write a whole dramatic story for the questline, and instead made it a simple matter of rising through the ranks and doing duties. It is a bit of a bummer that a lot of the quest rewards are just potions, though. I've yet to properly start Tribunal or Blood Moon, I just traveled to Skaal Village to try and get a Fortify Skill effect, then realized they were too mean to sell to me, so I went to Mournhold to get it instead. I saw the Mantle of Woe in your Summons Only video, and was blown away when I saw that it fortified magicka by 5x your Int. It almost doubles your magicka pool. I probably won't end up using it, since I'm wearing Drake's Pride for the additional effects (and I don't want to deal with the Sun Damage), but I can only imagine of what other powerful gear the expansions have hidden.

[@berrie-nice-to-meet-you]

I've been wanting to check this out ever since Micky D covered it ages ago (hope he's doing well), but never got around to it. Thanks for doing this!

[@luvidicous3776]

This will be perfect background noise while I stuff candy with razors and drugs!

[@Giantcrabz]

free drugs for the kids, what a kind soul 🥰

[@thunderstudent]

Plot twist: You're the Nerevarine and the guy sent before you was a false incarnate.

[@redhead_redneck]

Hey JBN, im just dropping by to say that i found you through a recommendation after watching Joov, and I've quickly become a big fan, and you actually got me interested in finally giving Morrowind a proper try

[@mrfact9994]

26:56 That sure is the best noise ever put in a video game

[@Ephraim225]

If I had the modding powers of Akatosh himself I would make that giant brass titan the final boss. Like a Metal Gear, but with an even more obvious weak point!

[@flamaplays]

It's canon to me that you did as Saitama from One Punch-man: you broke your limiters. But instead of become invincible, you got one of the best narrative voice I ever heard in a video.

[@GuyontheInternet525]

Imagine being in a zombie apocalypse and you end up dying due to fall damage.

[@sedrosken831]

14:02 Malven Romori has Recall in her spell list there, too. But I agree, getting to and ransacking Verrick's shop for the amulet is much less of a hassle.

[@egoalter1276]

Fantasy settings having fundamentally diffefent physics and chemistry to our own is a cool concept that I have never really seen before.

[@TelvanniWizardMoneyGang]

I knew it, lifting weights is art confirmed. The barbell is my brush, the program is my canvas, I will paint a masterpiece of bodily form and function.

[@sovietsalamander]

Reminds me of dinoksetiid a post apocalyptic skyrim mod pack which i recommend to anyone who likes skyrim

[@mattshryock]

This was really neat to see. I remember seeing some one-off streams of this mod years and years ago and totally forgot about it until now. Kinda reminds me of Fallout Dust for FNV, which I also played pretty recently on a whim. There's something about total conversion mods like these that I really like, when the whole game is re-contextualized. Dust or Frost for FO4 would be neat to see on the channel if you ever decided to crack those content barrels open.

[@metalmadness5851]

Anyone else notice that the vanilla Corprus enemies all seem to be human?

[@JustBackgroundNoise]

They actually have elf ears. I only noticed this recently.

[@TommyNitro]

Your dry humor is what makes your videos so enjoyable.

[@samuelmontenegroserniotti7146]

12:18 "Art is power expressed through details" (power as in "capability" or "competence")

[@HistoriaVids]

"how the mages doing?" *Enters, leaves immediately* "Nope"

[@Coffeemancer]

"At the end of the road, we travel north" "Punching sound" That was very funny when i wasn't looking

[@brandonbulthuis2740]

9:10 this is the kind of deep thinking I come back for. 10:23 nevermind.

[@SeekerTerminarch]

I remember this one. I had it with Sixth House overhaul, 0 stats, hardcore, and Ashfall. It was fucking BRUTAL! Getting a conjured weapon of any variety is absolutely essential so you can actually hit anything. Thus beginneth the grind...

[@jak1165]

I'm glad we got some more "Why did Manscaped sponsor JBN" lore. Im into it

[@GameJournal0101]

It might seem silly but I listen to your channel when I am doing laundry and cleaning at home and my place is way more wholesome as a result. Cheers man.

[@tacenda_loon]

6:37 "How are the mages doing?" "Nope!"

[@yolkonut6851]

Sunder really does give off "That's it I'm getting me' mallet" energy

[@Lernos1]

1 and a half minute in, and Divayth Fyr is already like "Emporer", "defeate". Someone needs to proofread this mod badly xD

[@joelsweeney4024]

Oh damn. I never noticed 😭

[@mpg272727]

You know I have always wondered if Dagoth Ur won how would he have coped with the Oblivion crisis? Would Dagoth even later be able to take down Alduin when he returns?

[@JustBackgroundNoise]

The Mythic Dawn probably wouldn't hold out too long against the blight. Dagoth Ur would probably infect the emperor before they could get to him. I wonder if a Corprus-Emperor could relight the dragonfires.

[@cranberrysauce61]

@@JustBackgroundNoise wasn't there something in lore that mentioned that the ash storms summoned by dagoth ur couldn't reach the mainland? if thats the case im not sure how much the blight would spread past vardenfell

[@JB-xl2jc]

If Dagoth Ur won it's implied (by some of the metaphysics stuff partially in the lore and partially in the crazy mind of Kirkbride) his interpretation of negative CHIM or warped zero sum would infect all of reality and cause it to warp colossally or even cease to exist altogether

[@Velloah]

@@cranberrysauce61 Maybe. Since the Blight's starting point is Akulakhan, I imagine if it was finished and could leave Red Mountain the Blight would spread much farther.

[@512TheWolf512]

20:40 ah yes, the kind of skirt that's special for kan-kan and the like. yes.

[@kellylee2955]

I wanna say how cool it is for manscaped to do this sponsor like this. Theyre still happy to sponsor someone who cant use the majority of the products , they just take the chance to push forward their other products. Idk just seems nice of them.

[@ShrtStfflp]

26:51 absolutely love that bit xD

[@Norkill1]

For the random loot (that restore magicka 1pt chest) I found that the standard zombies from beginning drop quite a bit of those items. There seems to not be any level or value restrictions. Personally done fireball with massive aoe killing those weaker guys in 1 shot. Also those items are often in chests and barrels etc. Also some armor vendors seem to now have adamantite armor set hidden in shops Maybe a bit immersion breaking but fun nonetheless

[@redcastlefan]

Thank you for another banger to take my poops to. you've no idea how you improve my bowel movements

[@t3knosoulz]

the background noise x manscaped collab is by far my favorite sponsorship pairing. like tequila and lime. chef's kiss.
