Skyrim Zoomer tries to play Morrowind

I seem to remember reading about a serverroom/office fire at BGS that happened some years back. Perhaps due to said fire, they no longer possess the source files for this game, and can't do such a thing. That said, I wouldn't want to see how bethesda might screw morrowind up in trying to "modernize" it.

The second I fell in love with Morrowind was when I was being sent out of town and instead of a quest marker I got directions And those directions could be easily followed with real world logic So I prepared for my journey and thought maybe I should get some cure disease and blight potions I slapped down a mark so I could recall to my quest giver later I then went to venture out but stopped and thought for a second and realized I was thinking exactly as my character would be in this world I was immersed before the quest had truly even begun Edit: the way this game puts you in the right mindset is done so immaculately Graphics and all be damned I played on the Xbox one because I don't have a PC yet

[@TurtleShroom3]

I think the absence of Quest Markers was one of "Morrowind's" worst features, but in my opinion, it does not in any way detract from what is and continues to be the most immersive game I have ever played. I never played any other ES game before I tried "Morrowind" this very year, and I am having the absolute time of my life. My favorite part is all of the READING. I slurp up every single point of dialog and have read every book I have opened. I cannot remember a more immersive game, and the best part is that this dedication to immersion has continued in every ES game succeeding "Morrowind".

@@hyperboreanarchives7299 I definitely get where you're coming from on the lore/quest journal point, I do think at times it can be oversimplified. In terms of actual gameplay and game mechanics though, Skyrim is far more advanced and detailed than Morrowind and Oblivion. Just because Skyrim includes things like map markers and a HUD w/ compass, doesn't mean that it's making the game easier. If you don't want to look at the map or have an on-screen compass, then you can make it so that neither of them are toggled/utilized. I would rather have a game with more features that the player can turn off if they want a challenge, than a game where none of those things are present.

[@hyperboreanarchives7299]

@@joecarlson699 More advanced and detailed? Certainly not. You mean more streamlined, flashy and (admittedly in terms of combat) fluid.

The third is widely considered the worst, and the second the best. I personally loved the third one more than the first and the fourth, but the second was my favorite. -but here's the thing. There is no such thing as a bad "Shrek" movie. Every movie is above par from the average and is a high quality production. Fans of the series are so spoiled and exposed to such quality content that their idea of "bad" is gruesomely warped. The same goes here. Bethesda has put out a series of games so good that even the "worst" of them is still a fantastic game. "Morrowind" fans bashing "Skyrim" forget that they are so spoiled by Bethesda that their idea of a "bad game" is still, compared to other games, a fantastic piece of work.

If you are looking for a good guide for beginners in Morrowind This one is a good one. Is called Hitchhiker's guide to Morrowind. It has a lot of good information but she doesn't bore you with a lot of math when she explains things. Honestly one of the best Morrowind guides I have ever seen. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaOVY2h-jLGKmdU . As far as the fatigue thing. Is good to remember that in Morrowind fatigue effects almost everything. Even things you wouldn't think would be. Sometimes a restore fatigue potion is just as important as a healing potion is. It isn't like Skyrim or even Oblivion where you can just ignore it. Would also recommend that new players stick to their class when it comes to weapons. That free dagger is a trap if your character isn't built for short blade. The starter village has free weapons of various types laying around for the taking or if you return the ring to Fargoth the shop in town will give you a good discount on the weapons and armor of your choice. So if your character isn't built for a weapon type don't use that weapon type unless you have paid a trainer and learned how to use it. While I am talking about Trainers, unlike Skyrim in Morrowind you are not limited on training a certain amount per level. So providing you wanted to invest the gold into it. There is no reason in theory you couldn't master every weapon or skill in the game even if the initial character isn't built for it.

"I did not know there was a third game" Oh my god, too right. Do you know how many times I've unironically had to explain to people that there were TES games pre-oblivion? It's like they can't fucking read and have no deductive reasoning skills. This one time I literally had to sit down a 40 some odd year old man and tell him that Fallout 3 was a sequel to the other Fallout games. He literally thought the game was just called "Fallout 3" and was a standalone original work.

The Boomer walks in and sees that he is playing "Morrowind", and crying because he sucks at it. The Boomer sits down, explains it to him, and shows him some graphics Mods and bug fixes. After he calms down and gets a hang of it, he's hooked. 'Wow! This game is actually incredible!"

Morrowind is a 10/10 game but the learning curve is ungodly steep. You need to Read, and Read, and Read to understand the mechanics. It is the true the more mechanical the game, the more fun but this game takes it a huge step.

I tried it twice before, and hated it both times. I finally tried it again more recently and something kinda just clicked for me, really enjoying it and the amount of freedom it gives you to do basically whatever you want, my favourite is something not a lot of modern RPGs seem brave enough to let you do: flying. The levitate spell/potions are so fun, can really make you play in a way you might never have thought of before too.

[@chancellorglass8409]

As a "Skyrim Zoomer" who just started playing Morrowind, I played unmodded until my first Crash in Balmora. Then I modded it with a Vanilla-Friendly mod list. Almost rage quit after the second dungeon because I kept dying to people with such worse gear than me. Read a combat quide, started actually wiping people. Almost rage quit again when trying to get to Caldera because God are you slow in Morrowind. Realized I could jump to Speedrun to places and rest to regain stamina. I plan to keep playing but the run speed is honestly my biggest complaint. If there's no fast travel then at least make me faster. I even trained up my agility and put so many levels points into speed. I tried to mod out the slow run speed, but it didn't work. I can deal with the not hitting every attack, because I actually level up those skills relatively quickly, but God almighty can someone in Balmora invent the treadmill so my agility levels can get to the point where I'm faster than a snail.

As a Skyim Zoomer who started Morrowind recently, I must say: Skyrim has better combat, but Morrowind is better RPG overall.

The reading wouldn’t be an issue if you didn’t have to interact with some characters who tell you three entire fucking novel pages worth of info to progress the story. The journal also is the worse thing to ever exist in the console version. It’s for some reason inferior to the pc version’s.

Morrowind was by far the most lived in and lore centric of the elder scrolls games. You had every race specific weapons not just types. I remember having a nord sword that looked like a demon while wearing a troll bone skull. And the variety was just wild. The world wasn't just generic either, you had completely unique cities from imperial and Nord looking to the pyramids of vivec and mushroom towers of the Dunmer wizards. Politics was immersive from the slave issue to conflict between the houses. It was just unique. I love all the games but it somewhat irritated me that a game that came out in 04 just seemed so much more lived in then the more generic backgrounds of oblivion and skyrim
