Did you really expect Bethesda to script all that shit in the fucking proto-gamebryo engine in 2002? You know how much shit they'd have to do? Todd Howard may be full of shit but he isn't a fucking god you dumb nigger

wtf? When did this meme start?
Joshua Phillips
Soylent Grins? a while ago. Infowars even makes fun of them.
you hate the mushroom trees because ppl overhype them. You hate level design because it can require magic at times. and your last complaint is something that has lacked in every bethesda game i know, the player never gets good faction control or power, asking for such a old game is a lot.
u tell me ur gay and dumb by how you are and how your points suck reddit as u boys call it
Hudson Wilson
welcome moon and star come to me through fire and war ooh ooh

In Skyrim you get to decide whether Skyrim becomes an independent country or continue as a province of the Empire.
Kevin Flores
does that result in immediate infighting and declaration of wars from the other nation states?
Jose Perez
Remember how in the last Morrowind thread people began arguing about trannies for literally no reason? Let's do that again.
John Walker
.......what?
Jace White
wow mr reddi t now tell me all the cool gameplay effects and features that r new or changed when you do :)

If they suddenly declare independence everyone else is going to declare war and steamroll them since they'll be weaker.

>die Woah there, school shooter. You'd better calm down.
Justin Collins
Think about it: how often would you use a fucking levitation spell in real life? All the time! Something on a shelf you can't reach? Levitate! Need to change a lightbulb? Levitate! Oh shit it's raining outside there's puddles and mud. Better levitate! I just tripped. Quick, levitate!
Jose Barnes
Nice thread OP.
Isaac Hill
you could make so much free mechanical energy with levitate spells that merchant guilds would come and kill anyone who made them. Maybe that's how it happened.
Matthew Turner
>daggerfall brick doors that teleport or kill you lmao the door is so randum xd i love it this is better than morrowind
>oblivion doors lock behind you and requires a key omg cinematic i'd love to see morrowind do that holy shit rofl just kidding i don't want to see morrowind at all it's so brown, right?
Cooper Russell
Different user The walking speed is indeed shit. It becomes tolerable if you pick the steed birthsign and then level up stuff that increases your speed.
Ian Morris
agreed, Morrowind is a great game that should be cherished.
Juan Sanders
My entire point is that joining the Legion in morrowind has to real consequences on VVardenfell, their influence does not increase, no cities are replaced with imperial guards, none of that shit. But in Skyrim there is an affect, you've ultimately made it an Imperial province again, you've determined who's going to be the new high ruler(queen) of skyrim and even see imperial soldiers guarding former rebelling holds.
>Woah there, school shooter. You'd better calm down. Die
Liam Reyes
In Skyrim the civil war is a major plotline, if there was no changes then there would be no plotline In Morrowind if the Legion decided to just move in on Dunmer cities and claim them as their own in a matter of the weeks/months that the game takes place, the natives would butt fuck them back to Cyrodiil
Brandon Roberts
If you side with the Stormcloaks, the Thalmor leave Skyrim for the rest of the playthrough, and Talos worship is allowed to continue. It's not much, but the removal of those godless knife ears is totally worth it.
Landon Bailey
Not if the legion quests revolve around you gaining the legion more prestige and getting the natives to like the Empire more, which it really didnt, it was just another group that you can get quests from, they, like all other faction in Morrowind, had 0 fucking affect on the world. And how is the Legions/Empire's presence in VVardfenfell not something of great significance?
Austin Martin
>affect >effect Learn the difference
Wyatt Perry
>hit person with sword >clearly hit >sound plays for hit >it was a miss
Daniel Evans
nice meme
Sebastian Edwards
This honestly. Not having any fucking cue for whether you hit someone, visual and audio, is terrible game design. Not an argument.
Ryan Russell
>Not having any fucking cue for whether you hit someone
There's an audio cue, a particle effect, sometimes a reaction animation and their health meter goes down. What else do you want?
Brandon Morales
Its a classical RPG, what do you expect?
Aiden Edwards
Come and look upon the heart Upon the heart ooh ooh
Hudson Ramirez
Not always
Hunter Fisher
its great, just not the best in the series. oblivion gets that title
Hunter Carter
It's barely noticeable, you don't notice any real impact other than the health bar. Also see Not sure how many fucking CRPGs you've played but a lot of them are very clear if you damaged an enemy or not.
Ethan Ortiz
The enemy health meter is always there and that's really the one that matters. The rest is just "immersion".
Asher Jackson
>game feedback doesn't work properly all the time >dude just use the health meter
Oh you know when you walk to go punch a crab, you don't just miss.
Josiah Russell
I don't even know what you are talking about when you claim the other shit doesn't always work. The only one I noticed not to happen all the time is the stagger animation and I'm pretty sure that's by design. There a distinct whiff audio cue for missing and a distinct one for hitting and you don't tend to see blood spatters when you miss.
Gabriel Green
>getting the natives to like the Empire more 95% of the residents of Vvardenfell want nothing to do with the Empire. Hlaalu is open about their relationship, but that's a trade thing. Redoran is friendly enough, but mostly do their own thing, and Telvanni actively makes sure the Empire doesn't bother them. The Ashlanders and groups like the Camonna Tong want the Empire out of Morrowind completely, and will gladly kill all of them to do it.
>And how is the Legions/Empire's presence in VVardfenfell not something of great significance? Because Vvardenfell is the frontier. It's wild country, where even the weather wants to kill you or turn you into a bulbous, mindless monstrosity
Noah Ward
Conflating >being bad and >not knowing arbitrary tips about the game cuz you're not some no-life faggot who spends all day on Sup Forums
Cameron Lopez
People expect too much. It's something that people bring to tabletop games.
Like for example, in Morrowind/Oblivion/Ect, you can join the Thieves Guild, Morag Tong, Fighters Guild, ect and you can become the goddamn GRAND MASTER.
But it feels like bullshit, like a fake award. Think for a second how much EFFORT it takes to be even a low-level manager in such an organization, let alone the goddamn Grand Master.Day to day work, paper work, managing dozens, if not hundreds of people? Even reaching the smallest management level position would entail a full time job that prohibits adventuring.
It would be a game into itself.
"ELDER SCROLLS: GRAND MASTER OF THE PREFECTS"
The whole game would be about the beat and being a prefect.
Caleb Anderson

Im not saying they have to take over the entire island, but some change would be nice
Daniel Lopez
>Like for example, in Morrowind/Oblivion/Ect, you can join the Thieves Guild, Morag Tong, Fighters Guild, ect and you can become the goddamn GRAND MASTER. Morrowind guilds have stat requirements to rank up and it would take a lot of grinding to max all of them on one character.
Zachary Thomas
The sound and particle effects are literally always there for fuck's sake
Jaxson Hernandez
I bet you couldnt even clock the game because it didnt have a giant pointer to show your dumb ass which way to go. I bet your character sucked so hard he didnt have a constant effect levitate ring like mine did. I bet your character was so fuggin stupid he didnt learn mark or recall spell to instantly teleport back home or where he wanted. I bet your character was such a fucking loser he wasnt given a manor for becoming a high ranker in one of the great houses. I bet you didnt clock the game and become the nevarine which every one on the whole continent knows about.
But please smart ass enlighten me on a game that actually has full immersion where every little action has a lasting effect.

Cooper Stewart
I think everybody did all the shit you mentioned.You aint special , son.Stop jacking yourself off for playing a game.
The game is a great game, and specially for it's time , was wonderfully immersive, rich and wonderful. But every little action does not have a lasting effect.
Something like being the commander of the Imperial Legion; or being made the Guild Master of the Mages Guild SHOULD be an immense honor, the cornerstone of a storyline in any other game, but the game treats it like nothing has passed, like it's just a title. IF you're lucky, the game has NPC's address you by the title, but it doesnt add to anything.
You dont lead the Imperial Legions to fight againts Dagoth UR in the Red Mountain. You dont really do much of anything political.
It's just a meaningless title. In fact, most titles in the game meant little. You didnt command or lead anything.
Christian Robinson
the most frustrating things are >walking speed >NPCs not moving out of the way >tight corridors everywhere >funky collision >enemies will chase you forever >enemies don't chase you through doors
Aaron Sullivan
Oh my god, it finally happened. I know one of the "men" in this image. He's a super beta orbiter who can't stop throwing money at twitch girls, the kind of guy who likes Suicide Girls on facebook. Oh man. This makes my night. I've always hated him.
Sebastian Ortiz
Wtf is this shit bro. THIS is better AHAHAHA.

>I can safely say that Vivec is the most realized character in videogame fiction. Period.
>If a hermaphroditic, bug-armored, bipolar god-king existing in multiple universes who has his very own bible with *actual* magic strewn throughout it is your idea of a cliche, then I really would like to live in your world. It sounds fun and new.
>But, wait, then I'd have to inexplicably make snarky and insulting comments in a forum where creators often tread. And that would quickly make me boorish and prone to cliched Angry Youngster Angst. That's the interwebs for you and good luck with it.
>I can also say that Morrowind is the finest novel written in videogame fiction. A 40 hour narrative whose main character is only ever referenced is almost Nabokovian in aspiration, and prophecies whose truth is determined only by the player is akin to Borges if he only had been born with a USB port in the back of his beloved neck.
>There is a fine line between celebrated tradition tuned to masterstrokes by its crafters and cliche'd demons underneath volcanos. Morrowind is the former, Selbeth, and nowhere near the latter. Except, again, when wrapped 'round electric peanuts tossed from the back row with bright'n'shiny underscores for effect.
Thomas Sanchez
not op, all i did was answer his question of what game has full immersion with every action having a lasting effect. that alone makes it more of an rpg than any game bethesda has ever made though.
Luis Sullivan
Name a game that has then. Guess what you cant cause it doeesnt exists.
Brody Wright
Man, fuck Vivec. Actually, don't. He'd enjoy that. Fucking two-toned nigger raped Azura, one of the few Daedric princes that aren't total cunts, and left Morrowind to suffer when that fucking moonlet Bar Dau fell because he fucked off to space or whatever. I'm gonna make fucking shoes out of him on my next playthrough
Michael Richardson
It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god. It is lonely to be a god.
Brody Walker
No i didnt i climbed red mountain on my own and fucked his shit up on my own. Got so fucking powerful my own fireballs blast could kill me. Every person on morrowind was an ant no one could touch me. I didnt need an army or someone to hold my hand. I dont get wtf your on about its a game i played over 10 years ago as a teenager it was good for the timeline i played it in.You want a fully immersion content out of a 15 year old game are you a fukin retard dude. This games only advantage over skyrim and oblivion is 1: you can stack your characters stats over 100. Use Potions to stack more. 2: you can fly (couldnt in oblivion) 3:Use various spells not available in the next 2 games. 4:enchant your gear with spells also not available in previous made games. People that played morrowind and then went on to play oblivion know what they lost in the next game. 1: Npc enemys are locked to your level. 2:magic spells were even less. 3:couldnt fly magic sucked. 4:couldnt get better weapons than you level even if you had the cash. While i have these complaints about oblivion im not gonna be a whiny bitch and shit on other people that loved Oblivion. I still clocked Oblivion.
