Is this one of the greatest open world games of all time?
>>731056170I know this is kind of random but can someone tell me why most images nowadays are webps, now? Images I gotten off of google before that used to be jpgs are now webps? Why?
The only good thing about this game is that it's very open and you are given instructions on how to go somewhere so you have to figure it out yourself, that and the music. Literally everything else about morrowind is dogshit, including the boring world building and locations.This is a game you only enjoy for a while because it's blasting emotional music in your ears while you explore the world and try to find something cool. It stops being a good game when you don't find anything cool. The first silt strider is probably the only cool thing you ever see in this game, maybe the flying rock too.Bethesda has never made a good game.
>>731056170yeah, dude
>>731056216because webps are lower weight, generally, and can scale compression, plus they have support for animation even if they rarely use it. It's a more modern age .png, except, .png was fine, is fine, and most sites don't want to rework their entire back end to support .webp so like 95% of the time it's just a big fucking headbutting contest to upload a fucking image anywhere.Maybe that was a secondary goal, to kill user shared content by making it more annoying to just copy and paste shit.
>>731056216It's the new thing. Get on with the times, boomer
>>731056216They take less space and bandwidth for the same approximate visual quality. Most progress in tech is about a better profit margin by cost reduction.
>>731056170You can't do anything there other than talking and killing.
>>731056216i'm curious as to why 4chan still doesn't support it because that's the only thing that annoys me about it.
>>731056216Pushed by google
>>731056170Sure
>>731056216new, better format. Unfortunately not as big of a leap as gif to webm, but still better than fucking jaypeg
>>731056216Because google hates 4chan and 4chan users
>>731056170Oblivion was closer to the ideal open world because it's half baked implementation of radiant AI kept it feeling alive regarding how npcs move around the world. Did Morrowind even have that? pretty sure the npcs were all just static until you walked into them. Even Gothic made the world feel more alive than Morrowind.
>>731056282>musicthe music is good but because it's only like 30 minutes long for a game that can be 50+ hours it starts to sound painful to listen to when it becomes so repetitive. i think there's still a lot of cool stuff to find but there is a lot of generic stuff too. which is fine for low level early game stuff but trying to explore when you get stronger and more experienced makes the boring stuff a bit of a waste of time. generic tombs and caves and such probably should've been kept near the starting areas and only more interesting things elsewhere.
>>731056216This shitty site allow webms already. and 4mb restriction in 2026 lol lmfao. functionalitywise this site is so shit honestly.
>>731056170I wish I could enjoy this game as a sneaky thief boy but all roads lead back to spellblade for me.
>>731056764STALKER's a-life is the closest any game has come to oblivion's promised radiant ai I think.
>>731056959I mean being sneaky is probably the single worst playstyle due to how borked the mechanics are. Playing an illusionist thief kinda works, but you still can't really pickpocket
>>731056764You're missing the forest for the trees. Morrowind's NPCs were far, far more interactive than Oblivion's NPCs. NPCs walking around and doing things is not gameplay, it doesn't add anything, it's fake detail that you can only look at but not interact with.Morrowind's NPCs reacted to (You) with actual gameplay options. Quests will tell you to go get something from some NPC and you had loads of different ways of doing that. Oblivion doesn't even let you kill quest NPCs, which Morrowind would have, and the pie minigame is as far as your "interaction" goes.
yes
>>731056882True, most imageboards these days have a much higher upload limit, too bad they're ghost towns. 4chan's also mostly unusable without multiple extensions like 4chanXT and its built in sounds player, which solves problems that shouldn't exist. 4chan truly is shit.
>>731057236>NPCs walking around and doing things is not gameplaySo i guess Ultima 5 had no gameplay. Is that what you're saying to justify Morrowinds lack of simulation features?
>>731056601hiromoot doesn't care about the site
>>731057236I guess this wasn't gameplay either.
>>731056170best betheslop? yeah probablybest open world? absolutely not
>>731058259What is the best open world then?
>>731056170The combat sucks, no voiced dialogue sucks, the game's too fucking slow without the boots, the nerevarine trials fucking blow massive fucking shitdicks, and as a newer player it is still my 2025 GOTY and I am looking forward to the day I feel like putting another 300 hours in.
>>731056601I asked this on /g/ a while ago, they said its some dumb thing having to do with unaccounted exploits or whatnot that might prop up from the new format, (despite the memes yes some users are hackers on steroids) , I dunno, it also annoys me.

>>731058395Why didn't we behead that nigger already? We have his address, don't we? We have his pictures and Youtube channel, don't we?
>>731056170My first open world rpg and still the best. GTA San Andreas is a close contender.
>>731058817yo this diddy blud just said>je ne sais quoi@mods@moot@grokepstienfellas is this real?
I can't stand Tamriel Rebuilt. Imagine having the absolutely best and most dedicated modding community of all time, working for two decades, with some of the best lore/writing to work with, on a game so fundamentally flawed not a single mechanic is functional or fun expect for magic, which is only fun because of how overpowered it is. You can't play a functional stealth character, the combat is ass and brainless, archery is terrible. It's just so bad and yet they pour actual mainstream developer levels of craft into a rancid foundation that cannot be fixed ever, even with mods. You will never polish a turd into a diamond; It's so fucking depressing they waste the effort.
>>731058290Gothic 2
I love Tamriel Rebuilt.Imagine having the absolutely best and most dedicated modding community of all time, working for two decades, with some of the best lore/writing to work with, on a game so fundamentally perfect not a single mechanic is useless or boring expect for sneaking, which is only boring because of how basic of a concept it is. You can play a functional jack of all trades character, the combat is snappy and fast, magic is excellent. It's just so good and yet they pour actual mainstream developer levels of craft onto a solid foundation that doesn't require much fixing anymore, even with mods.You have no need to polish a diamond further; It's so fucking exciting they keep up such high levels of effort.
>>731059167>>731059463The duality of dunmer
>>731059463I can't wait to get to it. Right now I'm replaying Morrowind to completion then I'm going to check it out
>>731056170Haven't played it but I think it is the best Elder Scrolls game, here's why: My brother is gay and has a boyfrined. Legit sucks penis. He never played games but suddenly got addicted to Skyrim and Oblivion Remastered, did everything in the games, got 1000+ hours. Hence, the games are inherenitly gay. However, he got filtered by Morrowind and Fallout 3/4.
>>731057236I love Morrowind but I really wish some of its fans, like you, would stop being so disingenuous with blatant lies about it.
GRAND and INTOXICATING
>>731060221I never said a single lie you nigger. It's objectively true that Morrowind's NPCs are more interactive. You can bribe, persuade, intimidate, taunt, etc., and each interaction does something unique.
>>731056764not quite.morrowinds guards would follow you to try and catch you stealing in shops.morrowind wouldn't have had a chance to put in the radiant ai>>731057236>>731058108lets define things a bit more clearly here.first off, lose the ultima comparisons for a bit, and stick to morrowind and oblivion.Oblivion had schedules and npcs actually going around and doing things more, yes.But morrowind had this large backlog of idle voice lines that remains superior to oblivions, and makes the npcs FEEL like they were doing something when you came by.If you stand around awkwardly long enough, they can - equally as awkwardly - try to offer conversation.the inflection on the voices is far more... fitting?lets call it fitting.when they hated you, you felt that shitwhen they were being nice to you, you felt that too.its subtle but it did a surprisingly good job of propping up the lack of anything like radiant AI (besides guard patrols and following you in shops)Oblivion felt like it relied too much on the radiant ai system, which was flawed, and lacked a lot of refinement that morrowind somehow managed to have in its voicing.The guards in oblivion were top tier though.kind of silly, but that was more about the animations and pathing contrasting with the voice.
>>731060605gonna weigh in on this as well.morrowinds interactions of bribing, persuading, etc is very, VERY limited and shallow.I would not argue using that.Its basically a withered crop that died while it was still a sprout.Far from bearing any harvest.It had potential oblivion should have built on, but oblivion sadly did not.I would say both are shit, but oblivions is worse because it was newer and thus should have been better, not a different flavor of turd.Trying to implement a minigame does give them some saving grace... but its still shit.
>le autism has arrived
>>731056170so many fond memories from when I was a kid but I can't play it these days without constantly glancing at the clock and watching my free time before wageslaving evaporate>>731057961retards keep defending the no audio because "people would abuse it". Aside from the fact there are already boards with soundposts enabled, do they think people don't abuse videos? I would rather earrape than seeing some real heinous shit.
Love this game so much
>>731060941>hating Linkara in 2026When are rightoids going to grow up and stop being so cringe
>>731061954huh??? I love both Linkara AND Autismwhat do politics have to do with it
