I played some of Morrowind back in the day when it came out and i couldn't get into it. Systems, mechanics, combat was more or less standard and fine but i really, REALLY hated the world and setting. This barren ashland, no trees, mushrooms were a running theme and i just can not enjoy that. I'd rather spend ten thousand hours in a woods/castles/caves/mountains medieval fantasy europe than one hour in this weird alien world.

Morrowind doesn’t hold your hand like Oblivion and Skyrim. You don’t go around exploring the open world like you do with those two games because some areas are inundated with creatures and enemies that will fuck you up. Health and magicka don’t regenerate in the same way as later titles and fast travel works differently. The role-playing and character build mechanics aren’t watered down either, which means zoomers will have to sit and think about their characters and how they want to level them up. Zoomers like easy games that hold their hand and spoon feed them and Morrowind doesn’t do that so of course they don’t like it.

I tried to play Skyrim again and I was bored. The quests are threadbare and the game relies heavily on dungeon diving and radiant quests.


Dungeon diving would be fine, if the dungeons themselves were actually interesting, the loot was fun to find, or the combat was fun. However most of the dungeons are fairly generic, filled with Draugr, the loot scaling makes it all dull and there is no Morrowind-style hand-placed loot anywhere, and the combat, while it is slightly flashier than Oblivion's, is not particularly fun either. Bethesda seemed to think the words of power and the shouts alone would carry most of the looting in Skyrim, and it doesn't

The story itself is generic, none of the characters are interesting, and it suffers from the standard Bethesda issue of the main quest being completely divorced from the player experience, everyone talks about how urgent everything is but you can take as long as you want and nothing changes. Alduin is a boring (and incompetent) villain, he apparently just dicks around while you are going around, killing dragons and acquiring power left and right. If he attacked you in the beginning because you were the Dragonborn and he wanted to off you, why does he never attack you ever again? It would make more sense for him to actually try to kill you as soon as possible, considering your powers

Skyrim is carried, hard, by two things. One, there aren't really any other games like it, even if everything it does is mediocre. Two, the modding, but frankly I can't be bothered to spend hours and hours of time to "make the game good". Even if you do, most of the game itself doesn't fundamentally change

>>746452165
They're right, but that's because the average player today is an massive fucking bitch incapable of meeting a game on eye level. Today's games are all about (mal)adapting to you, and undoubtedly a "modern" player would have no tolerance for lack of stamina making you miss all your attacks, or how the combat in general is more about dice rolls like a DnD campaign than actual action gameplay. I understood it and was able to adapt well, but the average gamer just doesn't have that kind of tolerance.

That's mostly because he missed the point of the main quest on a conceptual level. Like the other guy said, Goodall still makes Morrowind mods to this day and IIRC is the only ex-Bethesda dev from the Morrowind era that actually left Bethesda on bad terms with everybody else over creative differences, so i highly doubt he dislikes Morrowind, and if he does he probably dislikes the later games even more lol

He probably thinks that modern western AAA is the peak of game design and is baffled by the fact that Elden Ring is towering over all of them.

We've had this thread countless times already but, again, Skyrim brought in a lot of casual gamers and people that were only just getting into games (coinciding with a much larger percent of the World getting Internet) who, yes, would cringe and be confused by Morrowind.
Skyrim is intentionally a much more accessible game, it severely cut down on RPG mechanics and other aspects of the prior entries that would scare off people in favor of being primarily an action game with light RPG mechanics.
The article is basically saying
>if people who played FIFA, CoD and GTA played an RPG, they'd cringe

That mod is like mosquito tape for autists.
I think for me, there are two things I like about Morrowind; the immersion factor, and its place in video game history. To me, playing Morrowind is like going to a museum. I think playing Tamriel Rebuilt probably has the same immersion factor, but it's just not Morrowind anymore. It's a fanfiction version of Morrowind that's baked on Reddit for over a decade. I'm not even going to say it's bad, just that I have no interest in experiencing it because it has no relationship to the base game.

Sort of a oddly disrespectful claim considering how popular it continues to be and it definitely comes off as if he hasn't actually tried replaying it given the 'would.'
I've noticed designers often can't help fixate on design itself and naturally have a belief that their discipline progresses. Nesmith would probably believe that quest markers, as an example, are a positive development because it's a design choice which makes the game more fun and accessible for more people
