Find a flaw.
Oblivionfags and Skyrimfags not welcome
>>333525685
Bad combat, static NPCs that recycle lots of dialogue, heavy reliance on fetch quests, open world full of recycled content instead of handcrafted like Gothic.
There's no way to figure out where you're supposed to go and the graphics are bad.
endurance system
combat system
Walking to those forsaken yurt towns
game-breaking alchemy system
merchant allowances
NPCs/dialogue/quests are shit
>>333525815
Forgot to mention it's a hiking simulator and the map is terrible.
NPCS being unmovable tanks. I had an escorts missing and stepped into an are to check it out and the npc followed. Was trapped inside and unable to push them out of the way. Argonian and kahjit crouch walk animation is horrible and poorly designed. Dropping a ring or small item by mistake in the wrong spot can lead to it being hidden under an unmovable item. These are nitpicky things though, overall still in my top 3 of favorite games. Just needs a few mods that fix issue with it and it's perfect.
>>333525685
Absolutely shit combat and a plethora of fetch quests.
Better than Skyrim and Oblivion in a lot of ways, but significantly worse in others.

Not to mention inaccurate when you ask for directions to objectives
>>333525918
>There's no way to figure out where you're supposed to go
Can you not fucking read, you illiterate bitch?
I love Morrowind, I really do, but let me point out GLARING flaws in gameplay;
>hit chance
The chance to miss with weapons is hilariously bad until you raise your skills. Granted, this makes sense; you're inexperienced, so you're not going to hit ALL the time. However, missing a slow-moving crab with a giant mallet because you don't have a high enough two-handed skill with maces? That's more horseshit than /mlp/. I could hit a crab with a sledgehammer right now, and I've never used a sledgehammer. I know for a fact I could.
>Bad directions
The map is pretty bad. Without mods, the map only shows a tiny amount. They built up the fantasy part well, but their sense of giving directions was ass. A bit cryptic at times for no reason. It wasn't ALL bad, but a large portion of the NPC directions were ass.
>You can fuck up the game's story irreversibly
This sounds cool on paper, but holy fuck it's stupid. If you do something wrong, and you somehow managed to forget to save prior, you can't beat the game. There's a few alternate routes, like Yagrum "fixing" the glove, but otherwise it's bad design.
>Expansion packs
I loved Bloodmoon and Tribunal to an extent, but both had their share of outright stupid writing. Let's not get started on Almalexia's hilariously bad walking animation.
>>333525991
>Walking to those forsaken yurt towns
THIS. Jesus Christ that is the absolute worst thing of the game. I'm glad Morrowind erupted and destroyed those faggots.
The game was good. Good. Not amazing, not fantastic, just good.
>>333525685
>start game up
>voice acting
>suddenly words words words words
>first quest elf walks up steals back healing ring i just found.
>spend 1 hour trying to figure out how/where to heal.
>low hp walk into cave/mine in town.
>npc: lel im gonna enjoy this
>insta death
>find first real cave outside town
>ghost is immune to attacks.
lel nope
It's not___Good___.
You walk too slow
Fog hides how tiny the map is
Thieving skills are very poorly implemented. Pickpocketting is bugged.
You can't become the leader of every faction.
>>333526483
If I wanted to read I'd get a book. What matters is GAMEPLAY.
>>333527206
>Complaining about not being the head of EVERY faction.
>Enjoy skyrim man.
>>333527686
that is the gameplay faggot
>tfw the more RPGs you play, the more you realize TES was always shit
>>333525752
>someone was so asshurt, they made an image
>>333526526
Low hit chance is there to ensure you are not using weapons that are not of your class.
>>333528018
>spend 10 minutes reading you need to go over over to bills house because muh lore.
>gameplay
>>333528370
I'm sorry to hear that you have the reading level of a fifth grader, anon, but we're not all that slow.
>>333528453
im not going to read some fantasy fedora jerkoff story for 20 minutes just for a goddamn fetch quest.
>>333525685
Skooma gave my character liver cancer
>>333528560
>taking 20 minutes to read a paragraph
I severely overestimated your reading ability.
Did you graduate elementary?
>>333528645
>muh pointless reading
just walk into the first town every single white character acts like a jerkoff to you and nonwhites act polite.
I can't get alteration training anymore since it's the same level as my willpower (around 35), and alteration is my only major/minor stat that's tied to willpower. The only thing I can do now is buy a million gold's worth of magicka potions and spam alteration magic to level it up, right?
>>333528798
Level your other willpower skills, you'll get points in them in the level screen even if they are not min/major stats.
>>333525685
the main flaw is that it's bad graphics made me wanna vomit. thats the reason i'm kinda happy i'll be able to play the remake.
>>333528747
>nonwhites act polite
>This is the end of you s'wit!
>Die, fetcher!
>You n'wah!
>Filthy outlander!
Skywind will be much superior to Morrowind.
>>333528024
The more RPGs I play, the less I like any of them.
I'm fine with the brown palette, the island is an ash-ridden alien landscape. My problem is with the boring landscapes. Everything is just rolling hills, barely no landmarks at all. Not that it matters I guess, as you can only see 20 feet infront of you anyways.
>>333525685
>Outdated
>Stone age mechanics
>NPC's don't chase you outside when you fucking attack them inside their own homes(no they just stay inside and don't try to run/shout or ANYTHING just stand there like retards).
>The guards also seem to be deaf
>Immersion? More like it tries to break the immersion with everything it can.
>Shitty combat
>Shitty quests(+terrible writing)
and this is just the begining. How can people even defend this overrated trash is beyond me.
So much this >>333525752
>>333529052
There's literally no way it could be inferior. Polished graphics, fixed bugs, more integrated quest lines, they're only missing VAing
>>333528747
>in the first big town there's a gang that is anti-outlander
>all non-whites are polite
The only white people are the Impereials/bretons/nords, and they're all much nicer to you than the dark elves.
>>333529240
Fuck off, Oblivion babby. The game is perfect.
>>333525685
The combat system in this game was hilariously awful. However, I truly believe if bethesda got together to make a game that has morrowind's depth, oblivion's combat system and skyrim's graphics then it would be the best TE title to ever be released.
>>333529267
>levitation

Need I go on? Skyrim's engine is missing a shit ton
>>333529420
Gracious Todd will grant you the combat of Morrowind, the faces of Oblivion, and the bare-bones mechanics of Skyrim
>>333528370
But reading is the only good part in Morrowind. Were you seriously expecting an action game?
>>333529463
All of those things are implemented with mods.
>>333525685
>Critique this game, but don't bother if you're one of the people most likely to critique this game
I didn't know we were on Reddit
Skyrim is a shit game that can be modded into a mediocre game.
Oblivion is a shit game that can be modded into a great game.
Morrowind is a good game that can't be improved that much by mods.
>>333529717
The last altar is a broken piece of shit, nigga, it's useless.

It will be inferior unless you're a skyrimbabby.
>>333529385
I don't even like Oblivion but for you to get this defensive.... you also see how bad Morrowshit is don't you? But It's ok. Just admit it's shit and move on. Everyone and their mother knows it already you can stop and just take these off>>333525752
>>333529890
Reddit hates Morrowind and loves Oblivion/Skyrim.
>Skywind
lol
That project is so utterly tasteless and self-masturbatory that I have no words.
>>333530053
To be fair. So does 4chan as well these days.
Then again 4chan is Reddit so it's a given.
Morrowind is perhaps my favourite game, but I'm the kinda person that'll watch Dark Souls lore videos without ever playing the game. Morrowind is a very flawed game for sure. If you don't want to pick up one of the in-game books, don't even bother.
>>333526329
I cant stand these stupid ass click-bait theory's that can debunked with any common sense.
After Morrowind, Emil Pastramigoni became leader writer and designer at Bethesda and things have been going downhill ever since.
>>333530334
I love Morrowind but I never really read any of the in game books, in any of the games.
>>333529014
Those are combat quotes, though.
>>333525815
>Bad combat
Combat is fine, you just fucking suck at making characters.
>>333530564
I understand, but I'm guessing that you grew up with the game in the early 2000's. I meant to say that it's not a very fun game for people to pick up in 2016.
>>333530743
If the combat doesn't make me want to go out and have a fight for the pure fun of having a fight, the combat is bad.
>>333530783
Nope. Played it first time in like 2013. Got into it after I played Skyrim.
>>333530981
Well then I'm full of shit then I guess...
>>333531214
dont worry yourself theres always nostalgia fags and hipsters shitty up old game threads.
>>333531406
More like there's people with bad taste who can't grasp how games used to be.
>you mean I have to READ? THIS GAME IS SHIIIIIT
I just reinstalled it yesterday and I have no problems with it, except for one thing - the journal.
It's just everything in one place piled up chronologically. It really has no business not being organized by quests.
-> journal -> options -> quests?
>>333531656
Install Tribunal and Bloodmoon.
Bethesda fixed it when they released Tribunal so as to allow players to view the journal by quest as opposed to having every quest update flaked in together.
>>333531656
That was fixed by the Tribunal expansion which came out the same year that the original game released. Did you disable it or do you not have the GOTY edition? If you're playing the original version I'd at least pirate the expansions and make sure the game is fully patched.
>>333525685
icant
>>333531656
I quite like that.
>get a bit burned out after playing for hours on end
>stop playing
>forget about it
>return like 5 months later
>forgotten almost everything I've done now
>read through journal like it's, well, an actual damn journal
Granted they could have done it so it's a bit easier to get to the quest list.
>>333532763
good man
>>333530334
>>333531214
I understand where you're coming from. There's a lot of people who like it for the lore alone. It's impressive that people who don't even really like it as a game can still rank it among their favorites for the worldbuilding alone.
But I'm on the other side of the spectrum. The world and lore are nice but it's the game itself that's so appealing to me. They threw so many features and so much content in and just let it all interact as it did, without placing any arbitrary limits on the player, instead letting the consequences of the mechanics themselves dictate what you can and can't do. My playthroughs of Morrowind are so vastly different to each other. I've played pacificts, summoners, burglars, lived in dozens of different houses and caves, stolen from the Thieves Guild, slaughtered every slaver, made my own fast travel network with teleportation spells and trapping all the transport NPCs in my house, completed the main quest in three different ways and completely ignored it a dozen other times, and even killed a god and polished my boots with his soul.
No matter what weird character type you can think of you can bet that there's dozens of quests and at least a faction or two that can support your playstyle. Even a merchant type character is viable because most items aren't level scaled, so you can build up wealth and buy much more powerful equipment than the average adventurer would be finding in the caves they can handle at early levels. It's a shame that there's no real followers and you can't give items for your slaves to equip, so you can't play a merchant who relies on mercenaries without mods.
