yeah, anyone who's really played morrowind or oblivion laughed at skyrim's dungeon design
not to mention the small size of the map, everywhere you go on skyrim there's a dungeon, there are quests where they talk about lost forgotten places and they're literally a few meters from the quest giver, it's ridiculous
>>24402544
it's even more sad when you realise it was like that not because of incompetence, but completely on purpose, because otherwise people just got lost and bored without constant stimulation
>>24402424
>They wouldn't even try going upstais because the guard said no
How the fuck are normies this brainwashed into accepting any sort of authority? Not only that, but all the simplifications show that normies are quiet literally devolved humans, hardly capable of critical thinking or any sort of high level thinking. Jesus christ and I thought I was retarded.
>>24402424
hahahaha fuck. thats actually pretty funny.
>>24402587
you're right, no more exploration in rpgs...
>>24402674
Because normies are too inflicted with adhd to be able to explore and they can't wrap their minds aroud being able to do more then going from point A to point B on a linear map.
>>24402674
more like no more rpgs
do you think we will ever see the return of interesting classes or multiclassing? i see most rpgs have simplified classes a lot and mmos outright copy eachother
>>24402715
>we want the COD audience
Just fuck my games up senpai.
>>24402478
is it too late to start playing morrowind and oblivion?
i played skyrim but i didnt really enjoy it
>>24402759
it's too late, you won't have enough determination to stray from the main path, doubt what you're told or to try to see both sides of a character or faction, modern rpgs condition you to have bland playstyle cos it's easier to develop simpler gameplay
>>24402759
skyrim is rotten gruel disguised as food
oblivion is divisive but personally i can't get past how cynically bethesda ruined the lore to make it easier to design (bland-a upp)
morrowind is great but can be a pain to mod as a newbie and admittedly has some pretty pig shit gameplay mechanics-wise, really makes you metagame way too much and takes you out of the roleplay, but the story/writing/setting/roleplay are one-of-a-kind and practically genre defining
just install that big omnibus morrowind megamod (the graphics overhaul one, not one of the ones that adds tons of stupid shit), get galsiah's character development, get the finished tamriel rebuilt stuff, and maybe get the better dwemer ruins mods. then quickly look up how to avoid creating a gimped piece of shit, and dive in. if you can somehow tolerate the mess of bullshit i just told you to endure, and you like RPGs, it will definitely become one of your most memorable experiences.
>>24402759
fuck all that shit and play STALKER instead
>>24402841
don't listen to this redditor, modding morrowind is the worst thing you could do, you ruin the atmosphere with hi res textures and crowded points of interest. you won't feel part of morrowind anymore, i'm serious
>>24402821
yea i was afraid of this.
when i play a game nowadays i always think in the back of my head ''alright where am i SUPPOSED to go?''. i don't explore much because i'm afraid i'll end up somewhere i shouldn't be at my level or i find a glitch or something.
>>24402879
we had this argument before, a month ago
regardless of how objectively right either of us may or may not be, you are in the minority opinion. you are also probably assuming i'm saying to install a bunch of MORROWIND COMES ALIVE shit. the graphics mods just add fucking grass, basically.
oh well, let the guy decide for himself. it's the story that really counts anyway. but i will say: turn off distant land if you end up using MGE. it definitely does kill the immersion and people only use it because they can. distance fog makes the world seem much larger, and you really don't notice it after a while.
>>24402424
Post that one Ys review.
>>24402869
i tried, but stalker is basically a one way tunnel. i want to play a big open world.
>>24402912
>i don't explore much because i'm afraid i'll end up somewhere i shouldn't be at my level
This is called risk vs. reward, it's one of the most fun things about RPGs because you genuinely don't know what you're going to encounter when you enter some dungeon.
Having to run for your life from some hardcore wizard niggas in Morrowind, because you poked into their "uninhabited" cave looking for shelter from a raging sandstorm in the middle of fucking nowhere, but having to mark the place on your map and make a note to come back at some point because you saw that the wizards have slaves and you hate slavery, is way better than levelled content.
The fact that Oblivion had levelled loot and encounters actually blew me away. What the FUCK is the fun of encountering shit that is only "appropriate" for your level? What if I want to try to survive or sneak my way through some mega-fortress so I can acquire gear that would make me a god? That's the whole foundation of players making their own stories. Having to choose their own risks and think of unconventional, clever, interesting ways to succeed.
>>24402424
reminder video games are for man children
i wish there was an rpg with dwarves, a lot of dwarves and mountain halls and greenskins and stuff and good lore not simplified oh i like to mine and drink
>>24402405
>>24402424
>>24402478
>>24402587
looks like convoluted shit
>>24402976
What do you think his hearthstone looks like I wonder if he's would be a ret pally.
Usually the overweight ones are all paladins.
>>24402963
there are mods which add a ton of content
>>24402753
I remember in the beginning of World of Warcraft, which was at its time considered a simplified MMORPG itself. I played a druid, and at the top level (60), you just accepted that the druid was a healer. At least in PvE. The rebels, like myself who wanted to go dps (which was only feral, since balance was just shitty), had to go PvP. This was simply accepted. This is the druid class. Have fun leveling, but at top level if you wanna boss you heal, otherwise go to the battlegrounds, and don't be a retard and go balance. That was how it was. It was restricted, you couldn't do everything, you made mistakes, it cost you time.
And nowadays from what I've heard of WoW (I stopped already in TBC), every class is basically the same.
>>24403132
recommend and link. otherwise i am too fucking lazy.
>>24402964
Heh. I remember shit like that from Heroes of Might and Magic. Suddenly I found myself sliding down a cliff and and amongst skull enemies... nopenope
>>24403191
you dont deserve it
>>24402986
I don't think anyone would do that without worrying about getting sued by JRR Tolken's estate or Universal Studios (or whoever the fuck made those films).
>>24403167
yeah, i remember those times, all classes were very interesting, when i saw a character i knew he had a different playstyle than me and that his every item had story, not like now.
if only i had enough motivation and a few r9k friends to start together on that server everyone's been talking about, we could do everything again and slowly, like the good days

What's funny is...
If they just fought the trend and published a complex game again it would INSTANTLY get game of the year.
People are getting tired of the linear shit.
>>24403314
look at the cod player
>>24403314
>lizard and cat people
>>24403332
>Not realizing these are companies who just want to make gobs and gobs of money and succeeded.
>>24403224
that's probably true (._. )
>>24403238
ugh, I've played on lots of pre-tbc servers. The first three I still enjoyed it, but now it's so fucking slow and boring. I know absolutely every part of that game, I still remember almost every quest. There's a reason expansions come, even though I never played them.
dem low level dungeons, though, and the outdoors elite areas... those were good times.
>>24403314
>>24403356
>Lizards are slaves and cats are drug addicts.
And?
>>24403363
And they do that by making good games.
>Oh, who am I kidding? Normies will fucking buy anything.
Fuck this. I'm just going to go play League of Legends. :^)
>>24403336
>>24403370
such a fucking lack of fantasy. Even the World of Warcraft cow-people is more interesting.
I just thought what if it was a dog people instead.... It's equally fucking ridiculous but for some reason people accept cats. I get lizards though.

The Xbox ruined video game forever. That's one of the things that makes gaymergate so cancerous. These fucking babbies threw a god damned tantrum over a medium that was dead before they were cum in their daddies' cocks.
>>24403416
The khajit are based on gypsies, I heard.
>>24403395
It was gradual, in arena the khajit were just "the catlike people of the south", basically humans but with a climbing or acrobatics race bonus. Then in daggerfall they were, people who had weird catlike features. By morrowind they were just cat people. Khajit are fucking great anyway, and they looked really good in skyrim, regardless of what your opinion may be of the game itself you have to see that surely.

This. The West doesn't even make fucking RPGs anymore. They just make dumbed down versions of FPSs with puzzles.

Found the low-IQ FPS junkie.

Looking down sights was a good thing you nostalgia goggles turbonerd.
>>24403635
>>24403695
THEY'RE ALL THE FUCKING SAME. Holy shit you people are retarded as fuck. Read the article. It explains it all. You are literally the people who destroyed video games as a medium.
>>24403723
How many different ways can you aim down sights, anon?
>>24403723
>>24403744
>read Cracked, you people who don't read Cracked are the problem!
if you say so onee-chan

What has looking down sights have to do with bland FPS games?

moaraom

Nope.
If you can't explain it then you have zero reason to be defending that point.

You are just the fucking worst. I tried reading through that article but it is written so fucking poorly it hurts my eyes to even glance at it.
>back in 07 I had no worry about games playing bowling on the wii
what the actual fuck. Fuck off.

We were all agreeing about the decay of gaming before you came in here, shitface.
>>24402424
>TFW usually play Dishonored doing high chaos
>No matter what, never cause a disturbance at the party, complete all optional objectives (standing in for Pendleton, signing guestbook, etc.)
>>24403594
>and they looked really good in skyrim, regardless of what your opinion may be of the game itself you have to see that surely.
they're. fucking. cats. They looked like something done by a tumblrinodino
>>24404117
They were co-opted by furries. Not created by them.
>tfw cool fantasy ideas are forever ruined by those fuckers
>>24404155
taking a mammal or any animal, but especially the most common ones, and making them anthropomorphic is not a cool fantasy idea
should i play oblivion or morrowind? which is better?
>>24404603
Just play Skyrim, friend. I love Thief and Thief II, I say this as a badge of my true gamer status. However, I could never get into Oblivion or Morrowind. From what I understand, Morrowind is where the true hardcore oldfag gamer status is, and Oblivion already ruined everything. So you might as well play the updated version of Oblivion, that is Skyrim. I played Skyrim and enjoyed it a lot. Mostly the stories, the scenery, just running about. It's a time-sink, but not a challenge.
