>>749047345no, and that's okay
>>749047849it's notwhat does it change?
>>749048863It makes it playable
>>749047849/threadMW is maybe a 7/10 on a good day
Openmw has the "NPC's walk out of the way" optionIt's definitely not vanilla Morrowind experience
>>749047345no but it's better
>>749049509It adds a search bar in your inventory which to be fair is quite useful for finding the right potion.
It's alright, wish modders actually used most of it's features.
>>749049509unbearable
the authentic Morrowind experience is ass, don't be afraid of QOL and bugfixes
>>749048863I forget if they changed this or made it a toggle, but I recall there being some drama over the fact it changed the relation between attack animation timings and the actual point in the animation when the hit is calculated.
>>749050076movement is different too so you forward strafe slower iirc
>>749050076There's some issues with combat that are being worked on. Openmw is actually easier than vanilla because npc's have a cooldown between attacks while in the original they swung as fast as their weapon allowed. I think the next release is going to implement a fix that brings it closer to vanilla.
>>749050340>npcs have a cooldown between attacksHmm, I can see the logic here - was it to keep NPCs from immediately gassing themselves out to 0 fatigue?
>>749050574yes otherwise you play in easy mode
>>749050574No clue what the original intent was but scroll down to the combat section for links to the discussion. https://openmw.org/2026/the-light-of-magnus-whats-coming-in-openmw-0-52-0/#more-7026This has a video comparison betweenthe two versions. https://gitlab.com/OpenMW/openmw/-/merge_requests/5440
>>749050574No because the delay isn't long enough to gain any back. The result is taking far less damage with the openmw version and awkward pauses between npc attacks.
>>749050574It's the other way around. Enemies in OpenMW have lower hit chance than in Morrowind because they spend much more fatigue in combat.
>>749047345I just installed the game from GOG and besides the resolution being 4:3 it works just finewhat do i even need OpenMW for? Cant i just install a widescreen mod?
>>749050993Interdasting.
>>749051319Well you can do that, but OpenMW is a new engine for Morrowind data files which allows you to do things not limited by a 25 year old game engine: more than 8 light sources, borderless Fullscreen, and more importantly promises to be a open and seem less engine for modding and scripting. So you don't need OpenMW to enjoy the game but as long as the small engine changes don't trigger the 'tism it is generally an improved experience, and the base in which modern mods are designed around
>>749051319The only reason is to play with the openmw exclusive mods. If you'd rather play vanilla or mwse exclusive mods you lose out on utterly nothing.
>>749052724>>749052983I installed MGEXE for widescreen I just want the original experience and don't give a flip about modsany reason i might regret this?
>>749053439oh yeah also, just in case: can i use my vanilla save states in OpenMW?
>>749053439>>749053493nah it'll be fine. The biggest thing is openMW handles the big cities of TR way better, but since you're a luddite you won't see those. Don't worry about it.
>>749053439No, that's the best way to enjoy vanilla. You might want to add MCP for some bugfixes, but keep in mind it has a bunch of gameplay and balance changes mislabeled under "bigfixes" that's on by default. But it's modular so you can disable every change individually, unlike OpenMW's gameplay changes, many of which can't be disabled.
>>749047345The whole point of it is not being authentic, the same way MGE XE + MCP isn't authentic. And be thankful for that
>>749049804>NO NO THE SHITTER WAY TO PLAY THE GAME IS JUST BETTER OKAYFuck off nigger. OP doesn't know just how shitty the base game is without the patch.
>>749053439I prefer MWSE because all the mods truly fits into the base game you're sure to not have any modern UI or out of the place mechanics + there's no good replacement for Ashfall on OpenMW.
>>749054224>>749054075you people sound like you dont like morrowind at all
>>749047345Not really, but it's okay.
>>749054353It's a fucking bethesda game
>>749053674>The biggest thing is openMW handles the big cities of TR way betterThis has been proven to be false and I don't know why you redditors parrot this lie.
>>749050826What the actual fuck? that guard is cracked
>>749054451this has been proven to be true, and I don't know why you discord kitten rapists parrot this lie.
>>749054353What the other anon said + fuck not being able to see anything in front of you and 4:3 display ratio. Only retards crave authenticity
>>749047345Only authentic way to play a game is playing how the original developers released it. Weather you care about that or not is up to you.
>>749054451it's time to downgrade to SD data version bro
>>749049554That was not the question
>>749047345Until it stops being mogged by MWSE the answer is no.
