Is Morrowind better than Skyrim? Yes it is.
Yeah, there's really not much to say. We've known this since Oblivion's release.
Morrowind is of course the far better designed game but Skyrim, being the best walking simulator ever made, is more atmospheric and made a bigger impression on me.
>>730856465by a million miles
>>730856465It's not like it's a high bar to hurdle.
Morrowind doesn't even have dungeon music
>>730856781I love morrowinds music but it really could have used more tracks. Gets boring listening to the same theme all the time
>>730856465I remember not liking Morrowind when I got it for x-box when I was in 10th grade. Not only did it look like shit for the time, it was just boring.
You need to have 60 in a weapon skill to actually start "enjoying" the combat
>>730856465But that's not saying much. It still sucks monkeyfuck and pukes diarrhea up your fucking asshole.
>>730856956I also got it on xbox in 10th grade, and I loved it because the world building, environments, and lore were cool and fun to explore and learn about, with the quests just being a vehicle for that exploration.Once I'd played through the game a few times and 100% all the quests, I finally went out and gathered every book in the game and read through them, made my own personal little library.That's the key difference between people who like morrowind and people who don't. Whether your focus was on the combat mechanics or on the worldbuilding, exploration, and lore.>>730857150No, there's nothing to enjoy in morrowind's combat. It's something you get through to get to the fun parts of the game. The most fun thing to do with the combat is to play a mage and create your own custom spells and superpower yourself to godhood using alchemy, nothing about actually fighting in the game is fun.
>>730856781>dungeon musicgross
>>730856956I loved Morrowind when I got it in 5th grade, so maybe you were just a slow kid.
Morrowind is one of those games nobody actually likes. People just pretend they do because they think it makes them seem cool. Game is actual dogshit.
>>730857224I really enjoy Morrowind's combat, a lot more than the likes of Skyrim. I would rather miss a few times and then do buckets of damage when it lands, than wail on an enemy for five whole minutes hearing the chunky guttural sounds of hitting while the camera shakes left and right.You can easily start with a high skill for one weapon type, and you can easily pay for training in the other skills you want to multiclass in later. Don't be a putz.
>>730856465both of these games get mogged by new vegas
>>730856465ehhhh no. Bethesdaslop scales pretty well with technology, Skyrim plays way better.
>>730857703Why not just have a low skill make it so your attacks are slower? Instead of just missing constantly when your weapon is very obviously going through the enemy. There is a way to make dice rolls not retarded.
>>730856465YesThe ending of the words is ALMSIVI
>>730857150Or just make a mage
>>730857710lmao, trannyvegas
>>730857773Why not every time you swing the weapon you gain septims.
>>730856465uncslop wikipedia text dump instead of characters/dialogue worst combat in history of vidya proceed to seethe while dumping tumblr fanart of MK's power tranny fantasy self insert mary sue
>>730857885you shouldn't throw stones from your glass house there, trannywind player
>>730857983It's a game made for intelligent whites, not your kind.
i say morrowind is the better game and skyrim is the better experience
>>730857983>you just know
>>730857918I'm not sure if you're accusing me of wanting instant gratification. But that's not what I'm arguing here. Morrowind didn't need to do dice rolls in the dumbest way possible.
>>730858015>even doe dunmer simps are the most niggerlicious tes fans of all
>>730856465As someone who just beat Morrowind and is now playing Skyrim for the first time (I know fucking crazy), I can say that Base Morrowind is a much better game than Base Skyrim, but Modded Skyrim is better than Modded Morrowind, mainly due to how many mods there are for Skyrim. I still didn't like Morrowind as much as Daggerfall though, the spell chance to cast shit was annoying and just encouraged save scumming, I am completely fine with the weapon swing chance to miss, that made it feel like I was missing in a table top rpg.
>>730856465god that armor looks so sexy i want to wear it and have it possess megod i despise how ugly modern vidya weapons and armor look
>>730857608No, it was boring. When you actually read every video game story becomes trash.
>>730856465Yah, if you're disingenuous and ignore decades of mods and reduce Skyrim mods to porn mods and Dark Souls mods while shilling TR. Of course.
>>730856465are you wrong? Yes you are/thread
>>730858004dilate
>>730857150>You need to have 60 in a weapon skillAnd you can get that in character creation very easily.
>>730858320it must suck to miss out on the only good rpg because you are a tranny who hates yourself
>>730856465FACT.
>>730856781This got me thinking and I can't even remember Skyrim's dungeon music...? Meanwhile I know oblivion's like the back of my hand
>>730858219>>730858295What mods magically remove all of Skyrim's flaws and turn it into a good game? Name them.
No fucking shitSkyrim is an amusement park ride catering to the lowest common denominatorWhen you look deeper into the game, it's incredibly shallow and one-dimensional from gameplay, to "quests", to the world, to the systems.It's in the same boat with Fallout 3 and 4Sure, they're dumb fun, the worlds are genuinely beautiful and fun to explore, but expecting anything in-depth from them is a fool's errand. No amount of modding fixes these games.
And I see people in Morthal. It's raining and it's freezing and it's foggy. And there is no "move". (What do you mean "what's the move", you are in fucking Morthal, bro. There is no move)And if that doesn't motivate you, I don't know what will. Because the worst thing about Morthal isn't Morthal, but that Solitude is 5 minutes away.
>>730856465if that's true who do I (a white male with 135 IQ) have 3000+ hours in Skyrim across multiple platforms and I could never be bothered to leave the starting town in morrowind?
>>730858884Well they're the fucking same so thats probably why.
You can't really compare them. Morrowind has heart and soul, its a living thing that will stalk our hearts forever. Skyrim is like taxidermy, it says nothing, expects nothing, just there in the corner.
unc game
>>730858914Requiem
>>730856465great world buildingpretty terrible everything elsewould like a remaster / remake just to see people freakout when it gets called peak uncslop cus 98% of all quests are banal fetch questsskyrim is a better game
>>730858914The ones from the The Simonrim Suite, particularly the Magic, Perk, Potion, Race, Werewolf (cause I'm using that one), and Stone Overhauls. Also the Dagoth Ur meme mod is funny.
>>730859634Not surprising the kind of person who asks for remakes is a Skyrim fan.
>>730859914nta but morrowind is one of the handful of games that truly deserves a remake.Though it needs to be remade from ground up.
>>730860081Why? So casual consolefag retards can experience the same brainless feedback loop gameplay as Oblivion?
>>730860081How would a complete remake in the modern Bethesda style with no atributrs/skills, voiced dialogue (with 4 VAs for a gazillion NPCs), floaty pillow fight combat, forced companions with shitty writing and base building be a good thing?
>>730860138>consolefag retardsOuted yourself as a faggot I see.FYI retard morrowind was on xbox.It needs a remake because it is outdated as fuck, in shit loads of areas, most noticeably in the dice roll combat and that the entire game is just a series of cells with loading stops between cells. Something that oblivion also had but had larger cells.While I personally think the journal is the best quest log system i have ever seen in an open world RPS, with no instant fast travel too. I would appreciate that it is outdated and too complicated for most people.If it was remade I would prefer an option, OG or casual to have compass, quest marker and fast travel locations or OG journal and my own map markers.BotW/TotK let us have our own map markers. Morrowind allowed us to write notes on the fucking local map. It also didnt even have a world map. I used to have to have a tab open with a jpg of the map.Then, no voice acting. Sure you have a few lines, nwah etc and dagoth and jiub and the fuckers at the beginning speak a few lines, but that is pretty much it. Modern games need VAs.Which also causes morrowind issues in a remake as its a mass of text that would need to be pretty much deleted or we will be sat there for 30 mins listening to people speak in conversations.Again and option for both would be better.Damn zelda still does text as well. Its not always a tech limitation like it was in morrowind.Like I said, one of the few games that deserves a remake.Only other game I can think of off the top of my head is ass creed 1, which also deserves a remake.>>730860643I have thought about it before. Only way to do it correctly is a ground up remake but then they would need to balance the OG games mechs with modern expectations and I think the only legit way they can do that is allow us to have options at the start of a save. So a casual mode like I mentioned above, and a "hardcore" mode which just reuses the OG mechanics.
>>730860767>It also didnt even have a world mapIt does, are you retarded.
>>730860767Morrowind was ported to Xbox, not designed with that kind of dimwitted audience in mind. Quest markers give you brain damage, though I doubt the effects are noticeable on the target audience these days.
>>730861009>t never played the gameIt has a local map, not a world map retard>>730861046I agree with oblivion it was casualized and then skyrim carried on with the shitty UI, but in turn we also got the 2 handed combat from skyrim with controller in mind and that shit is top tier. Better combat than morrowind (of course) and oblivion. I hope they keep that going further but expand upon it.
>>730860767Congratulations on being the most retarded consolebaby nigger on /v/, thankfully Bethesda will never remake Morrowind to appeal to you subhumans.
>>730861398>consolebaby niggerimagine being such a fucking brand loyal faggot cuck you hate people playing vidya on platforms designed for vidya.If you play any fucking game other than a fucking flight sim or strategy game, willingly on a keyboard, you are a retardThere have been peripherals designed to play vidya since the fucking 70s you fuck nugget luddite
>>730861385>It has a local map, not a world map retardIt has both, with a button to switch between them.Though it's possible that like most of its QoL features that came with an expansion.
>>730859442>>730859910Yeah... I don't think so. Try again.
>>730856465If they add full Radiant AI support to openMW and tune the physics it will outclass everything that's ever been and will be made, you will never have mechanics with any depth again when the biggest customer base is browns and women.
>>730857150And you can get a character that always hits off the boat.
>>730857150Have you considered not being poor
>>730856465Modded Skyrim > Morrowind > Skyrim > Daggerfall > Oblivion > Arena
>>730862084 Hard agree except I'd bump Daggerfall above vanilla Skyrim. Procedural dungeons are a pain but the sheer scale and mechanics like climbing, guild politics, and character backgrounds blow vanilla Skyrim’s handholding out of the water. Modded Skyrim is basically its own beast anyway, especially with stuff like EnaiRim or Requiem.
>>730856781>going to the red mountain for the last stretch of the game to confront the final boss>oppressive atmosphere, feels like climbing Mt Doom>red sky>strong wind blowing>cliff racers ganking you every 30seconds>morrowind theme.mp3 playing all the way theremusic itself isn't bad, but there's not enough of it and many times it just doesn't fit
>>730856902Just add moreI added all the oblivion explore and battle music and select tunes from Skyrim’s soundtrack
>>730862084mods can't fix skyrim.
>>730858923this
>>730860767TL;DR don't touch the game then, fuck no remake of Morrowind.
>>730862610Wrong and possibly quite gay.
why did they remake morrowind instead of oblivion?
