Well, shit. Daily Morrowind thread, I guess. Anyone had any luck with this?
We JUST had a Morrowind thread.Good thing you made a new one cause it died
Is there a single HD Morrowind port that retains ALL the original Morrowind combat mechanics?
I always steered clear of Morroblivion and Skywind and all that shit because they completely replace the engine and it's just Skyrim/Oblivion but in Vvardenvell, complete with Skyrim/Oblivion's combat style, level up system etc.
I want the original game, just with better graphics and maybe the unofficial patch for bugfixes.
Open MW is free, right? I have MW on steam already but the no loading cells thing sounds perfect.
Are the stats and weapons/magic all balanced same as the original?

OpenMW is free, but requires the base game to work. Also, it's still in development and is, if history is to go by, FAR from 1.0.
>>339640170
Currently at 0.39, though it's in a completely playable state. If what I saw is 0.39, I'm excited to see what 1.0's going to look like.

That IS Morroblivion. I've played Morrowind and Morroblivion and Morroblivion is the vastly superior game if just for the improved combat, not counting everything else.

Oblivion's combat is legitimately worse, and I'm not saying this as a compliment to Morrowind. I'd rather the frequent missing than the annoying stagger literally every time you hit someone who blocks, while everyone on earth is a floaty hitsponge with the same bad voice actor screaming the same four, cringy lines. Just because Oblivion decided to commit to being an action game doesn't excuse it for it's extreme lack of quality. Only a genuine idiot would recommend it for its combat.
It's also annoying when people recommend Oblivion for its side quests. Only a genuine idiot would recommend it for its writing.

Those things scared the fucking shit out of me when I first played morrowind. I was so terrified of them I would not go anywhere near them, I was CONVINCED they were a hostile monster that as invincible because hucking fireballs and shit at it didn't do anything, and if I got to close it would 1 shot me and eat me.
I ended up walking everywhere and using almsivi/divine intervention because I was so scared of those fucking stilt striders.
I've never played MW before. I heard magic is shit in this game. Is that true? If it is, are there any mods to fix itgoddamn I want to enjoy this game
>>339638757
So what is the essential idea behind OpenMW?
>>339644684
I still think they look scary as fuck and are probably the weirdest fucking things I ever saw in a fantasy game.
Pretty cool nonetheless.
>>339644934
They are even weirder and scarier when you consider what they do to use them as taxis.
They literally carve off a HUGE FUCKING CHUNK of their shell and insides, like at least half the things main body, and it doesn't bleed out or die.
Then they poke the exposed tissue with swords and pointy things and shit to make its legs involuntarily move.
Then just as a cherry on top, they keep the thing alive, in freakish misery and ungodly pain for every second of its pitiful life, for hundreds of years.
Holy shit, fuck the Dunmer, race war now.

If they're at all as insect-like as they seem they don't feel pain like other animals. I've stimulates a large nerve on a dissected but alive cockroach before. They don't process the information as pain.
>>339644708
Magic is actually overpowered, but it only really gets to that point late in the game. Up until that point it's miserable because magic doesn't regenerate and most builds are mana gimped and you need to pick specialized races and signs for mana multipliers that each have their own nerfs. It's still fun though.
>>339645191
I don't think they move each leg individually but its more like "move that way betty".
Maybe I missed some lore though

Granted, skeletons are weak as fuck and this wasn't a very powerful spell, but you can have decent fun with magic. Especially if you invest in the skills and get some good spells.
Just don't go pure magic user because then you will have a hard time.
>>339644708
Magic is pretty fucking great in Morrowind desu senpai. Its pretty weak in the beginning, but after a few hours you pick up the skill and later on you can craft your own cheesy spells.
My favourite utility I always loved to use is one that gave you crazy jumps for 1 secondI forgot how its called, its been like 8 years or so now since I last played it ayypaired with a slow fall to avoid death.

0.39 means "the 39th release", not "39% of the finished product".
1.0 is an arbitrary step when they've reached at least full feature parity with the default engine. It might be the 41st release, or the 42nd, or the 156th.
Currently they're about 95% there, but the last few things take some time. Especially since they would like to complete their Construction Set replacement as well, which is currently lagging behind.
In either case, Morrowind is practically fully playable with OpenMW right now. What's left is minor things like "sometimes the AI doesn't behave 100% identical to vanilla morrowind" or a bug here and there.
>>339644728
It's a replacement for the original Morrowind.exe.
The old engine was shit in all kinds of way. Modding, especially scripting was very limited, it was full of bugs and had shit performance. Not to mention that it only ran on Windows.
OpenMW intends to rectify all that.

The Punabi and Sulipund shit where you have to kill the Greek fag for not paying denbts and then kill the other bitch if she doesn't join, that was the first hint that she was a mean bitch. I just used speechcraft on both of them, although of course I had to kill everything else in Punabi for the loot.

But this is fine too. My house is in Balmora and just a stone's throw away from the mages' guild so I can be in Caldera fast enough.
>>339650803
I used to camp out at the Ald'ruhn guild hall a lot. Comfier than Caldera on the inside, and you've got that little bedroom that was obviously intended to be borrowed by the player. I don't think Caldera's hall has a private space.

>>339651554
Also water walking
>>339638757
I love it how use of magic in Morrowind requires actual intelligence. Not the character stat, but player intelligence. The trick is to always have the right spell for the right situation and sometimes even multiple versions of the same spell. Ran into a bandit with a steel warhammer? Summon ancestral ghost and throw frostballs at him. The ghost is immune to cold and since it is also immune to normal weapons it will serve as an excellent tank at earlier levels. Ran into something serious? Swarm it with skeletons, bonewalkers (least and greater) and watch its strength and endurance get punted into nothingness. Longer and shorter water walking for quick travel and not to waste time waiting if you want to dive for a pearl or two quickly, levitation, interventions, mark/recall and even a levitation 1p for 20 seconds on target in order to suspend a target helplessly in mid air. Or you can be a vampire cunt and just cast absorb health aoe on your crowd of minions target included and facetank everything.

Be cautious with fortify speed. It can break the game physics and environment.If fortify speed is too high, you can go so fast that your character warp through solid matter like mountains and houses. If you use fortify speed with a fortify jump spell, you can jump so high that you will hit the skybox so hard that it will make the game crash.

>OpenMW is a free, open source and modern engine based which reimplements and extends the one that runs the 2002 open-world RPG Morrowind. The engine comes with its own editor , called OpenMW-CS which allows the user to edit or create their own original games. Both OpenMW-CS and OpenMW are written from scratch and aren’t made to support any third party programs the original Morrowind engine uses to improve its functionality.
>NOTE: Playing Morrowind with this engine still requires the Morrowind data files that you own.

I find there is more to do and find in Morrowind compared to Skyrim and Oblivion. Especially when you beat the insanely long questline you still only completed 1/3 of the story if you have the DLC. Ontop of the fact that you probably have 30 or 40+ hours already just strictly doing main story you have another 300+ hours of side quests to do not including Tribunal and Solstheim
I have 600+ hours and only completed main story & Tribunal but no Solstheim. And did a huge number of side quest and still not done them all.

There are so many options.

I could skill alteration or restoration and sanic jump out of there after the kill. I could snipe them from a distance with the arrow of a specific group, or beat them in public in the armor of an opposing faction.

What is everyone's favorite city or town in Morrowind?
>>339669485
And not by zero-summing?
>>339671084
Has to be Balmora. It's The City. Although Vivec is the capital, mostly Balmora is the first large city you end up in. It's convenient, quite large and stays relevant throughout numerous quest lines.
>>339671084
I always kill the guy next to the Caldera Mages guild and take his house.
He's a drunkard in debt up to his eyeballs so nobody will miss him.
>>339671316

>>339671084

>>339671117
They didn't zero-sum
>>339671248
Balmora is like the Whiterun of Morrowind, to me. Handy, and it's not like there's anything wrong with it, but it's just boring.
>>339671539
They didn't? What happened to them then? Did they become the, what do they call it...bones of the world? I'm slightly ignorant on the subject due to forgetting a lot.
>>339671084
>>339671316
I always take locked mansion with murdered dude in Balmora and cast Mark there. It's in good spot between Caius house and Silt strider, his dead body can hold any amount of items and never disappears and you got a personal sex slave upstairs.
>>339644473

Morrowind is a lot like Vietnam when you think about it. Swampy and with locals hostile to foreign imperialism and intervention.

>>339671248
Balmora is certainly the best fleshed out city and still feels comforting and familiar to me, but my personal favorite town is Gnisis, if only for Broladas.
I frankly don't like Vivec much. I feel the they didn't have the technology needed to realize the idea. The cantons feel isolated and individually very small and samey, it doesn't really have the feel of a metropolis. Environmentally speaking, Morrowind is at its best with wildernesses and frontier towns. Mournhold is a more successful take on the idea of a big ass city though again, not really convincing. The sewers are really cool though.
Any of you faggots know offhand how to free the slaves in the Gateway Inn in Sadrith Mora? I vaguely remember these two but can't remember what the deal is here. I don't remember this city well at all.
>>339672504
I'm quite fond of Gnisis myself because of the surroundings and the flavor of the town as well as the Legion questline. I do agree about Vivec. They had grander plans for the city. Plans that unfortunately were not realized.

It's now been in development longer than Morrowind and Oblivion combined. You'll be able to add Skyrim's dev cycle to that before it's ever done.
>>339674413
I sure hate hitting dead-ends,and having to backtrack, but I think non-linear dungeons add a lot to the atmosphere, and roleplay. Kind of like eating your greens if you want dessert.

>>339674798
The skyrim dungeon is still linear, though. It's just bigger. You might as well post Blackreach and get it over with. That's the only really unique, sprawling, and entirely nonlinear locale in the game.

>>339675212
Is this what you want?
Everything south of Almalexia has heightmaps only.
>>339674409
90% of mods already work with it, it already has better performance, shadows + distant land are apparently in 0.40, and it can already do things vanilla Morrowind never will be able to do, such as normal maps.
>>339674413
How many times are we going to do this man? Morrowind's dungeons were good because of the loot, not the design. They were copy pasted, tiny, and not linear simply because they were too small to be.
>>339675543
even when copypasted, the templates copypasted were just plain more interesting and in some ways more functional than structures of the later dungeons that no one would have ever built and didn't seem to house anything.
>>339675543
I hope you're right, trainwiz

Nordic tombs were boring, but at the same time going through literally the same tomb layout over and over again (to say nothing of daedric shrines) tended to drag on.
Im playing this game for the first time this week, why the hell do I want to ask everyone about Solstheim?
>>339666063
what does openmw give me that MGE/MGSO do not?
>>339676093
Because you have Bloodmoon expansion installed and it adds Solstheim island.

It's been in perpetual progress mode, mostly cause it's kind of massively detailed
>>339672504
I believe there's a mod that makes morrowind more what it was supposed to be
>>339677090
There are two, but they're partially incompatible with one another. One edits the area around the cantons, and the other edits the top of the cantons. Both tank your fps, with or without MGSO.
>>339676925
oh shit. where can I find it? c0da.es was a dead end last I checked.
>>339675940
Trainwiz speaks truth.
There is honestly not a significant difference in dungeon variation between Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim.
They are all fairly linear and uninteresting. The biggest difference is that Morrowind has the largest portion of hand-placed items, followed by Skyrim, and then Oblivion and Daggerfall being almost full random.
People need to get over shitting on all of these games - they are all good for different reasons, and there is no benefit in arguing between them.

c0da just showcased how much of a boner MK has for vivec and the dunmer
There is surely at least a handful of Altmer/other races worthy of being included in it but "NAH VIVECWINSLOL"
>>339678242
more than that, he works for bethesda
>>339678530
their fallout games also has that problem
>>339678945
That wasn't blatantly obvious before? They have the best/most fleshed out lore.
>>339678945
>boner MK has for vivec and the dunmer
Most people do, they have the best lore.
>>339678853
it's connected to a poorhouse of a canton I never really felt inclined to explore and it's pretty isolated, as Telvanni like to be. there's only one bridge from the rest of the city and it's way off to one side. you literally cannot see it from 95% of the city with original xbox draw distance.
>>339679136
>>339679083
>most fleshed out
because the game morrowind, not any intrinsic LOL VIVEC'S SPEAR IS HIS DICK LMAO wank
>>339679203
I originally played on Xbox too. I'm pretty sure the map shows it even if you haven't been there. Don't all the cantons populate on there once you've been to Vivec at all? I was just there for a quest objective but it was just a really minor local one. Not part of a guild questline or anything.

What about indirectly defeating enemies? Spells like charm & summons or somesuch.
So OpenMW fixes the issues with the game running on multicore processors, right?

IF YOU MISS AN ENEMY IN MORROWIND IT DOESN"T STAGGER REEEEEEEE
>>339679615
Yeah, that was one of the main points of it existing
>>339679686
>>339679587
yeah it's just got a bunch of squares roughly translating to where the city borders are, I thought for the longest time a box on the map correlated to a conton but it does not. also pretty sure it's off center; I remember checking it pixel by pixel as I ran around the city and finding myself way out of the map, or in the middle of the city while on the edge in the map.
>>339679575

>>339679591
more like you don't actually know shit about TES lore and just worship MK's cock
>>339679984
>built in
Far cells will be, but those sheathes are being made by a modder.
>>339679950
Entirely dependent on how the tutorial dispenses information and how complex the information/mechanic itself is. Obviously, it's worthless for something like jumping or shooting, but in, say, a puzzle-platformer that relies on using an increasing number of abilities in conjunction, that model arguably becomes the best way to teach people how to play the game.
Can you beat the whole game in OpenMW or is it not ready yet?
>>339680067
Games are a visual medium, I'm sorry the one game that effectively shows lore and backstory rather than telling you about it is about the Dunmer and set in Morrowind
>>339680367
If you mean the main quest, it's been able to be run to completion for a long time.
>>339663727
>people who can't follow directions & use GPS navigators wherever they go
So, with OpenWM, SOMEONE is going to fix the fucking combat, right?

From what I understand the game is complete, it's just some bugs & animation/behavior differences that are left to polish.

>>339680773
I've already got some improvements for it on the backburner.
the actual engine part of OpenMW is pretty much complete. like distant lands and some minor things still need to be inplemented or fixed but the game part is done and playable.
most of the rest of the work is the engine editor. so if you are just interested in just playing the game with most of the bugs cleaned up then OpenMW is fine to use and future updates won't break or anything. a lot of mods are compatible too as long as they just edit content and didn't rely on weird engine shit to work.
just in case any of you are unclear on openmw right now
>>339681459
that's bretons m8. huge sprawling cities, maybe not most of their territory, but it's one of the things that's most known about their territory, and yes they have constant conflicts between minor city-states, hell that's the main plot of Daggerfall.

Coherent storytelling, most likely. My theory on the Gospels is, they were going along following god-prophet, then one day he gets executed without fanfare or fuss. The apostles are sitting around thinking, "well shit, so much for the god-prophet thing," when the cleverest among them stood up and said, "don't worry guys, I got this."
And that's how we got absolution-through-execution as the world's least plausible but still widely accepted plot twist.

Quests mods and other content mods won't be affected by OpenMW. The new graphical enhancement mods are already supported. The only reason to wait would be for people editing the source code, and there isn't going to be many modders doing that outside of the people who work on MGE XE and MCP.

It's not accurate by any means, that picture is retarded.
>>339657958
Underrated.
>>339642254
thank you for showing me this
Whats the best way to play morrowind?
OpenMW or MGSO
well its raining super hard outside and that always gives me the urge deep inside my belly to play Morrowind.
Morrowind is my #2 in singleplayer games, but not too far behind STALKER.
i'll post some old screenshots
Is it too late for a newcomer to get into Morrowind.. without mods? I have a distaste for gameplay-influencing mods in general, only thing I'm considering is the graphics overhaul or something similar. Is there anything similar.. better?I'm probably going to play it anyway, I just felt like getting some opinions.
>>339702840
I've been playing with the graphics extender and a bunch of mods and it plays well.
>>339652513
>If fortify speed is too high, you can go so fast that your character warp through solid matter like mountains and houses.
But that's exactly how it should be, anon. Your body is vibrating so fast you phase through objects
Are hybrid races lore friendly?
There's this really good looking mod that shows the hybrid between a dark elf and a wood elf and it's got really good stealth+magic race bonuses, might roll one for my next playthrough.
>>339703171
No.
Only demiprinces count. Racial phrenology states that it's always race of the mother, traits of the father.
>>339703248
Ah shame. Into the trash it goes.
>>339703058
I started playing a year ago. Haven't moved from vanilla, still, and doing fine.
>>339703058
Depends on your tolerance. Of course you can play with no mods at all, and I personally I still play with only a few very simple mods.
If it is your first time, I recommend installing the game+expansions, the official mods, the unofficial patches, and a delayed dark brotherhood mod.
All of those integrate seamlessly to the original core game and the only one that "alters gameplay" is the delayed DB mod, which is almost universally considered desirable for new plays because it's more of a fix for the Tribunal expansion not playing well with brand new characters.
The only thing I personally add after that these days is Fair Magicka Regen to make pure spellcasters less cumbersome to play, but that's not something I would recommend if you want the original game experience.
>>339703058
Morrowind Code Patch fixes a lot of bugs in game,
Stuff like unarmored only working if your wearing at least one piece of armor, or a high mercantile skill actually making you earn less from bartering.
It also lets you pick and choose which fixes you wish, so if you don't want any of the gameplay influencing things they include, like the ability to enchant arrows/darts/throwing stars, you can turn that off.
Can't say anything about graphics overhaul. I've never cared to much about graphics to begin with, still play it unmodded in that regard and it suits me just fine. I could see how the dated graphics might be jarring for someone used to newer games, though.
>>339703132
exactly.
>not wanting to play as radical larry
>>339703423
I once played with max distant land and without fog. I used to think it was a limiting factor, but the fog is so integral to the morrowind experience.
Take away the fog and you take away the atmosphere, and the sense of a grand world.
Vvardenfell suddenly feels really tiny if you can view all the way to the other side of the island.
>>339703447
Good to know.
>>339703548
>>339703554
Might it be better to only install the base game first, and the expansions later, when I've completed the main quest(assuming that ever happens)? I don't want it to pester me endlessly with some expansion quest early on in the game. Or is that what the delayed DB mod does?
>>339703554
Is this stuff fixed in OpenMW or I have to get a patch as well?
>>339704770
Yeah, I was kind of shocked when I realized I can see Vivec from Seyda Neen when I tried overhaul.
>>339704847
Delayed DB moves the assassination attempt to when you're level 6.
>>339705108
What about the other expansion?
>>339705172
Bloodmoon doesn't really disrupt the gameplay, it's just everyone starts talking about it. Rumor fix restricts this topic to a few select NPCs.
>>339705108
Nah, you also have to have reached some certain point in at least one of 4 questlines.
I'm level 30 and I haven't gotten any assassin on my ass.
>>339705390
So, wouldn't I just have an easier time with it if I only installed the expansions when I feel like playing them?
I'm always baffled by anons who consider mages in MW as weaker or harder to play. Magic has been overpowered in pretty much every TES, you could already abuse the shit out of it in Arena. I can't imagine being a bulky overpowered warrior in Morrowind who can't even teleport around and jumpspell everywhere.
Easiest way to play MW - Unarmored Breton Atronach, with conjuration & mysticism as a major skill to drain everything to death. Get a few constant enchantments with restore fatigue, restore health and possibly Shield effects. Fill out your spellbook with cheap shit and use bound spears on everything that you don't drain.
Congratulations, you're a demigod sorcerer.
>>339705573
I can't say for sure because it has been years since I have tried setting up the game without the expansions, but there are a couple possible issues:
It is possible that adding/removing a mod/expansion corrupts your save-file in some unexpected way.
Some desirable patches/updates may depend on the expansions being present.
>>339706180
Welp magic in Skyrim is absolutely butchered
>>339701484
Are you the Saint Jiub?
>>339706212
I have the GOTY on Steam, meaning I technically have the expansions installed, I can just 'uncheck' them before launch. Does that change anything?
>>339706180
Any MW build is going to be godmode if you have constant effect restores/shields.
The biggest hurdle for magic in MW is that magicka only regens through potions or resting.
Fair Magicka Regen of course removes that hurdle and then spellcasters are just as overpowered as everything else.
Alternatively, if you create a constant Fortify Enchant item and boost your enchanting over 100, all cast-on-use items become only 1 point to cast and the points regenerate quickly. This is actually far more OP than all of the other magic schools combined, because it means you can cast maximum-power spells basically for free instantly with no casting animation at 100% success rate regardless of your skill in the actual magic school.
Morrowind overhaul or OpenMW?
>>339706913
If you are aiming for more of a vanilla playthrough, OpenMW.
If you want to mod the shit out of your game, overhaul.
>>339706350
I've done conjuring and it's still horribly broken. But it was fun looting and going about my business while my dremora lord cleared shit out for me.
>>339706582
>build my character around getting high enchant and being OP as fuck with enchanted items
>raise enchant skill
>huh, why is the enchanted item use cost still not 1
>mfw playing with the MCP option that rebalances enchant use cost and has a 4 second cooldown between uses.
welp, there goes my plan of being an OP as fuck enchanter
>>339707003
>OpenMW
Fit for a new player?
How complete is it? What are even the benefits over the old engine? I scoured the website and there is no explanation anywhere as to why it's even better in any way.
>>339707117
then watch the version release videos
I started my actual first serious playthrough of Morrowind with openMW, other than some target spells sometimes going through targets, it seems to work okay.
I don't know if the pathfinding issue are from vanilla or not, but they're pretty bad when it comes to narrow bridges
>>339707561
Yeah pathfinding in vanilla is godawful
>>339707561
how does it work with mods?
t. haven't touched morrowind for 7 years
what drives people making openmw and the like? they are absolute saints, I say, but is it for experience, resume, sonic fanfaggotry tier fanaticism or what?
>>339707748
well, openMW doesn't seem to fix it in any way currently, because it's pretty bad
>>339707845
I don't know, haven't modded it myself, here's a list with mod status for some of the mods they had tested
https://wiki.openmw.org/index.php?title=Mod_status
although, trainwiz claimed that 90% of the mods work with it, so maybe he can tell you more
>>339675543
>>339707117
You may have seen some of the screenshots taken in this thread, where the fps counter states they have 36fps in a 14 year old game. Myself I struggle to reach even 20fps with certain MGE options...
OpenMW is just old Morrowind with brand new code, that will be able to take advantage of a modern computer. It also introduces a new and easy to use construction set.
>>339707927
It's gamedev - it can be fun, interesting and challenging. It's no different than people who like making mods - just another level if you have the relevant skills.
I used to work on the Dark Age of Camelot freeshard project. It was really cool and satisfying to really create something like that.
>>339642254
What's he sayin?
>>339673034
I'm in the field and recently went to a conference about obesity and its management. While I agree that these people need to take responsibility for themselves, for a vieriety of scientific and psychological reasons it's way harder than it is for normal people to loose weight. Shits rough, coming from a 6'4 170lb bean pole.
>>339708386
Turn on the subs.
>>339706180
>see those soldiers from hammerfell?
>they have curvedpenises
>big curvedpenises
>>339680773
the combat is not a problem
>>339687003
That's the worst historical revisionism I've ever heard.
Trinitarian theology was already established at the time of the Gospel of John which is commonly dated at ~80 years after the death of Christ, and was soon accepted in the Councils.
>>339642520
>everyone on earth is a floaty hitsponge
>morrowind combat is literally just clicking m1 over and over again standing next to a mob and having your character swipe their sword over the enemy
>it's a post about oblivion nostalgiafags
u can't fuckin make this shit up
>>339706582
>magicka only regens through potions or resting
>not playing a battery powered atronach instead
>>339706582
I went with an Apprentice Breton but now I wish I picked Atronach instead. There's no restore magicka spells or enchants and potions are a hassle, but summoning is easy shit.
Hell, you could even enchant an item with CE summon ancestor ghost and have permanent magicka regen
>>339709572
>that grammar
u can't fucking make this shit up
>>339710253

Nice short blade skill you got there
Why does the ebony mace exist? The damage is ovenworthy next to the ebony swords.
I did find an ebony staff though, what should I enchant onto it?
Is there a mod to make NPC's not boring info dumps?
>>339687859
You mean the quest in Oblivion with the same formula of killing rats but less generic?
>>339714018
http://www.moddb.com/mods/the-less-generic-npcs-project/downloads
Get all four.
>>339714509
Does it make dialog system better?
>>339714579
The dialogue box remains the same.
>>339663697
Yeah but Kirkbride is a cunt that used his status as lore prophet to start injecting weird ass shit into the franchise to spite bethesda.
>>339714925
Kek like what?
>>339681607
If you're still here, are you doing it through esm/esp or their new scripting system? I know its got Python scripting integrated now
So I'm gonna play morrowind for the first time. Is there any mods I must install?
>>339715021
That anon's being a bitch, most of the shit he had is no more or less weird than the stuff in Morrowind
>>339715279
>Pelinal is a time traveling robot
>No weirder
>>339714925
it was better than anything Bethesda came up with later on.
How the hell does all the Nords being slaves to dragons shit fit known history? What were the relations between dragons and Ayelids, Dunmeri and Dwemeri states?
>>339715561
>Vivec giving birth to a thousand evil children, some of whom are himself, through a blowjob with Molag Bal
>Akatosh having a spaceship which he parks on Nirn and turns it into the Adamantium tower
By comparison an artificially made man being sent back in time by the gods sounds pretty fucking sane.
>>339715587
Yes c0da was much better and totally not him jerking himself off with his Vivec self-insert that he hadn't let go of after more than a decade.
>>339715587
Who cares, fucking dragon wars are fucking cool, nerd.
>>339715848
Yeah but the entire crux of the sermons is it isn't true by any mortal definition of that word. That was supposed to be weird, but it was also allegory. Vivec is the thief in the enatiomorph. He's the liar. He's an ass that made up fanfiction about himself filled with subtle hints that he killed Nerevar because he was a depressed tumblr girl crying for help.
>>339715870
I'm fine with competent and imaginative writers jerking off to interesting self-inserts.
Your buzzwords have no power here
>>339716070
>books that are both not true and true at the same time because a god changed the timeline
Time traveling robot is way less insane than that
>>339716124
I'll give you imaginative, but it was grating to read.
Anyone use GCD and like it? I've always just played with the vanilla leveling and never had any problems but I heard GCD makes everything smoother
so how do you create constant effect items? I thought it was only cast-on-use stuff?
>>339657958
GUYS IT'S BROKEN GAME MECHANICS
>>339717973
By using large enough souls. At least a golden saint.
>>339717973
Big souls and lots of shekels.
Enjoy your ring of constant levitation anon.
What second stat should I pick for my battlemage, endurance or strength?
>>339674574
watch the sky...
>>339718768
I'd go endurance for the early health boosts.
>>339718543
>>339718661
Ohhhh, okay.
It all makes sense now.
Thanks fellas.
How do I enjoy this game and not min max?
What are the basic minimum things I need to know when making a character to not gimp myself
>>339719410
I don't know man. I caught myself being a minmaxing faggot AGAIN even though I told myself I was just gonna enjoy the game like I did in the old days.
Too much knowledge of the mechanics kinda kills the fun.
>>339718912
A reminder that once you learn Summon Golden Saint you can create a SGS: Duration 10 seconds+ Soultrap duration 10 seconds and kill her to get her Grand Soul.
>>339719410
dont major/minor acrobatics or athletics
>Playing Morrowind for the first time on Xbox as a kid
>Used to think they were called 'Stilt Striders' because of their long stilt-like legs
>when they told me they made a special trip just for me, I thought it was because they all somehow knew my character and were arranging special trips for him
I was a pretty stupid kid.
I feel like I'm the only person that just uses MGE and no other graphics mods.
Using a patchwork of texture replacements just butchers the game's aesthetic.
>>339720706
It's okay, anon. I had some stupid moments, too. When I first found the Skyrim mission in Ebonheart, I thought Morrowind had a space program.
Good night, sweet prince.
Shitty combat Shitty game
>>339715879
Sure but they did a shit job of meeting that cool potential. They half-assed the story, and dragon wars weren't enough to redeem it.
>>339719410
Just max your endurance as early as possible and put a point into luck every level.
>>339721307
>I thought Morrowind had a space program.
We've got c0da, and Nerevar did end up running around on one of the moons, so you're not entirely wrong about that.
I already like it
if I would just sit through the start for once though, I always end up getting the assassin armor and have the time of my life as long as I dont fight more than I can take
>>339725701
I hate better bodies, original fits the setting much better.
>>339725890
Im fine with your opinion.
Shame Im to lazy to install more mods for weapon variety and stuff.
Its just like JA 2 1.13, I never finished it, but due to all the new games I started Im pretty burned out on it ...
Is there any advantage to using daggers over short swords and wakizashi? Made a character using short blade for the first time ever and my ebony shortsword kills everything faster than a daedric dagger
>>339727260
Because of their speed, you can time your strikes right and get your opponent into an infinite stun lock.
>>339727260
Attack speed. You can enchant them to deal higher damage, there's literally no downside if you do that.
