Why are zoomers calling it peak while hating the rest of the old Elder Scrolls games?
>>
>>739021051
Why the fuck is this board so obsessed with zoomers?
>>
>>739021051
Because it's peak and the rest of the games in the series are crap.
>>
>>739021118
because hyper obsession over vaguely defined groups of people keeps the stupids arguing among one another and not realizing that everyone is getting fucked and is about to be killed by the global elite
>>
>>739021989
but my football club is better than yours faggot
>>
>>739021051
Because we say old things good which is true but not for Morrowind. Zoomers ofc don't know this since they didn't play Morrowind.

this desu, the worldsim presented in the first 2 titles was very ambitious but also had the side effect of also being nearly fucking unplayable in many dungeons, or being able to easily soft-lock yourself. Morrowind presented a decently compelling vision for a setting and the deep dive into it did have the effect of providing the game with a draw that later entries based on the same premise wouldn't have due to focusing on more typical fantasy settings. But zoomers won't play either Daggerfall/Arena nor Morrowind, desu.

Morrowind is simply the best entry in a franchise in which none of the games are particularly well-rounded.

Zoomer here, imo it's because a huge amount of modern media has been incredibly diluted by random shit liek dei, racial sensitivity, and other gay shit. Morrowind has the depth, nuance, and honest to god gay shit without obvious crowbar marks left by trying to warp the narrative to fit a quota. We hate the other ones because they have hints of crowbar while also being told by our big bros "this was so much better" which they kinda aren't wrong about.
That being said, pretty much all the other zoomers I know cannot PLAY Morrowind and instead watch me or streamers play it instead because it's "too old" but always proceed to mod the everloving christ out of skyrim to make it closer to Morrowind.

I see the anti-morrowind schizo is alive and still platinum mad about an almost 30 year old game.
Imagine wasting that much time permanently seething about something so inconsequential for that long. It's the most pathetic thing I've ever seen.
>>
>>739021051
because a video essay told them to say it.
did you think they played it?

>>739023086
>always proceed to mod the everloving christ out of skyrim to make it closer to Morrowind.

I am aware of skywind's project but is there a collection of other mods doing small things?
>>
other esos are mechanically worse. For example oblivion and skyrim has garbage scaling, both have shitty random loot generation too. Morrowind was a part of time where games had and purpose and a ending. I STILL replay morrowind obliion and skyrim every couple of years and morrowind is fun, oblivion is okay and skyrim is a slog
>>
>>739021051
>imbligin period appropriate persons didn't do the same
>>
>>739021051
Because arena and daggerfall are just ai slop
>>
>>739022426
there's probably a decent amount of zoomers playing morrowind because new games now take 6+ years to develop. People looking for that kind of gameplay don't have nearly as much of a selection vs something like fps

It's like how Stalker analmeme is popular with younger gamers (20's) because they were watching tarkov videos

nah it's more stuff like the adding the clockwork city, vivecs lessons, faction overhauls, more magic, set loot tables, that stupid fucking Dagoth Ur mod, etc etc. Shit that really sells the "this is a living breathing and alien world full of magic and racism and motivations beyond "u r dragunburn :D"

Ah, I see.

It’s the only older rpg zoomers can play since jrpgs filter them

some eceleb told them it is

Isn't this board mostly zoomers by now? I'm 36 and it definitely isn't to my taste anymore.
>>
>>739021051
because thats the correct opinion
millennial casuals that started playing games with call of duty on xbox will never understand.

yes, half of these fags are zoomers pretending they aren't zoomers because they're 28

Morrowind is this weird game on /v/.

>Literally most of /v/'s first Elder Scrolls game up until recently which is why Skyrim has shifted to not being hated as much recently due to zoomers who's first TES was Skyrim unironically being in their 30s now and outnumbering Morrowind boomers in their 40s

It's funny to watch. What I always found the most amusing is that Morrowshitters will go on to crap on every other TES post Morrowind due to the dumbing down of the games when the reality is that Morrowind literally pioneered the dumbing down of TES with Daggerfall>Morrowind. In fact, Morrowind>Oblivion>Skyrim was significantly less of a dumbing down/stripping away of RPG features than Daggerfall>Morrowind

Morrowind has turned into that game that everyone feels like they need to LARP and pretend like it's their "favorite in the franchise" to seem credible when the reality is the game remains uninstalled and the TES game they return to each year being Skyrim. Common examples:
>>
Trying to complete arena. I'm 12 hours in, have 1 piece of the staff of chaos, and I'm in the ice dungeon. The only reason I was able to complete the first dungeon was because I used invisibility lmfao.
>>
>>739026723
morrowind's the only game on this board that gets near constant TR threads

Retarded frogposter.
>In fact, Morrowind>Oblivion>Skyrim was significantly less of a dumbing down/stripping away of RPG features than Daggerfall>Morrowind
Outed yourself for having never played Daggerfall. Kill yourself.
>>
>>739026637
because his company saw success by stripping it down to appeal to the lowest common denominator. this means the remake would require him to either be faithful or make fallout 4 with a morrowind skin

it's amazing how almost every single thing is wrong

>Skyrim has shifted to not being hated as much recently
It was never hated much. Small cities were memed on but it was always well-enjoyed and has had countless threads since its release

>Morrowshitters will go on to crap on every other TES post Morrowind
not really. It's only ESO that gets shit on because its weird ass lore infests the UESP. Most TES fans are TES fans and enjoy all the games

>when the reality is that Morrowind literally pioneered the dumbing down of TES with Daggerfall>Morrowind
Redguard came out after Daggerfall and before Morrowind, and it was a much simpler more casual game than Morrowind.

>In fact, Morrowind>Oblivion>Skyrim was significantly less of a dumbing down/stripping away of RPG features than Daggerfall>Morrowind
No lol

>Morrowind has turned into that game that everyone feels like they need to LARP and pretend
Projection from the guy namedropping daggerfall kek

>when the reality is the game remains uninstalled
nope, permanently installed to the root of my C: drive because it's a more important piece of software than the Windows operating system.

>and the TES game they return to each year being Skyrim
Skyrim last played: July 22nd 2019
Morrowind last played: January 17th 2026


>Morrowind is this weird game
This is the only correct part, congratulations.

I like Daggerfall conceptually but can't get over the sprites
Been waiting for Wayward Realms since it has at least one Daggerfall dev (RIP LeFay) working on it. Either that or 3d assets to be moddable for everything
>>
>>739026723
Oblivion was my first TES game. I tried playing it, but the enemies became too strong at a certain point, and after a few attempts I gave up and went back to playing Gothic.

>can't get over the sprites
What a genuinely mentally ill thing to get filtered by. Get a grip you goofy ass bitch.

They're going through a "retro" nostalgia phase because video essays are telling them to.

>>739031110
the sprites are the best part, zoomie. they look cool.

for the love of God, is it really impossible to make a SINGLE fucking thread on here without some kind of pointless fucking ragebait bullshit? its really just fucking tiresome to all hell.
>>
>>739021051
Simple, Dagoth rules.
>>
>>739031702
/v/ actually has a special report option specifically for instigating flamewars (millennial way to say ragebaiting)

millennial way of saying ragebaiting is 'trolling' however

IDK I'm not the one malding
>>739031678
If the entire game were sprite based it'd be fine with me, but I don't like mixing 2d and 3d assets it just looks goofy even understanding why that was done

>>739031778
jannies don't care about anything that isn't illegal, porn, or something they have a personal hateboner for.
>>
>>739021051
Because Arena is mindnumbingly boring, and Daggerfall is borderline unplayable
>>
>>739021051
because they are boring, shit and generic as fuck? not that hard to figure out, OP.

>>739021051
For its time it was incredible in its freedom. Did you want to go steal all the forks of all the tables in the land and make an epic collection in your house, which might really belong to some npc you killed and took over? Yep. You could spend days, weeks just exploring and doing random quests and guilds and such without even doing the main storyline.

Still one of the fondest memories I have in gaming is being a lowbie in balmora and spotting the sword of white woe laying on top a cabinet and using all the invisible/stealth stuff I had to successfully steal it and for a while feel super overpowered. Or finding my first glass weapon ever in a daedric ruin, a dagger just left stuck into a corpse sticking out and I stole it and had to run like hell from the dremora it spawned. Felt like an actual adventurer in a living world for a little bit. This stuff is so routine and boring to read now but back then, on the first playthrough where I knew fucking nothing about what was going on and using the paper map that came with the game to chart out where to go? Shit was pure magic. Maybe I was the right age and mindset for it or something but it was the best shit ever for me when I was like 13.

Now, do zoomers have that first-time exploring zeal I did? I dunno, if they played Skyrim and Oblivion first they already had that cherry popped. If they never did, maybe they felt some of the kino I did.
