Why do none of your choices in quest in Morrowind matter?GUILDYour choice is to kill everyone and become leader of one guild, or do like 2 more easy quests and become leader of all guilds. This is not a real choice.MAIN QUESTYour choice is to kill vivec and skip 90% of the game or just do the quest line normally. This is not a real choice.HOUSEYour choice is to become a wizard and get easy access to all the best armor, vendors, and spells in the game, or you can pick two houses that were dropped halfway through their design. This is not a real choice.These are your only 3 major quest choices in all of morrowind. Additionally, character builds do not matter. You need minimal stats to cast every important utility spell in the game and using enchanted items, which have no stat or skill req, will easily outpace a dedicated caster. Markmanship doesn't start paying out until skill level 70 because they had to attempt to balance a game where you could simply fly away from every encounter. You can cap every important stat for both melee and casting very early in the game, and have plenty of time to max out every other stat. Itemization does not matter. Medium and heavy armor are just objectively worthless and slow you down. Weapons merely exists to serve as a quicker tool to one shot things when you cannot be bothered to cast for.This just barely seems like a game to me, let alone an RPG. It's more like a hiking simulator, but I don't really see the merit in such games as I could just load up google street maps and walk around, and would see much more interesting things. Additionally, mods like Tamriel Rebuilt seem to exacerbate morrowind's problems even further, but seem to recieve universal praise here, with people sometimes even linking to the discord or subreddit. This is all very confusing to me. If you ask genuine questions about the quality of the game your post gets reported or someone just throws a tantrum full of disinfo and leaves the thread forever.
>>3839173Because Morrowind comes from the open world sandbox philosophy of RPG’s where the appeal is to dick around with the games systems not around specific characters. It’s more of an immersive sim than a real roleplaying game.

God, where are the love interests and sex scenes in this game. This is not a real rpg, none of my character choices matter.

Why can't we ever have a normal morrowind thread.
>>3840433Cause this game makes people seethe when it's praised. There are some normal threads where people post characters or discuss mechanics and mods but they don't last that long because no drama means less bumps.
>>3840448Everything about Morrowind is pure soul relative to the era it was made in and every other Bethesda product that came before or after it has been bland and vanilla, with the only saving grace around Skyrim was how mod-able it was.
>>3840448Maybe there'll be some good threads for the next Tamriel rebuilt update. The threads for grasping fortune on /v/ were comfy.
>>3839173>doesn't bother role-playing>decides game isn't a RPGYou faggots are all the fucking same. You wouldn't know an RPG if it bit you on the arse.
>>3840707Correct. The roleplaying must come from within you.

>>3840707>>3840735literally everything on /vrpg/ is 4's and 5's bitching about their mental deficiency. 4's and 5's need to be put down like a sick animal at the vet.
>>3841477But I did visualize an apple this morning
>>3840707For a RPG board, /vrpg/ rarely talks about roleplaying a character.Unless it's>Meet my character Grin Ding the MageWarriorThief, with maxed stats, gear, and quest outcomes. I have 100% the gam- I mean they have satisfied their single character trait of being power hungry, by searching for every available quest, reward, and experience point in the land, with the divine guidance of their chosen deity Gameus Faqs.
>>3841558I mostly roleplay as an adventurer sadly. For MW, outside of the chosen faction, most of the roleplaying comes from the way each character makes money to me (Pearl diver, Vampire hunter, Dwemer ruins items seller etc)
>>3841562>Vampire hunterGood fit for a Crusader or Witchhunter>Dwemer ruins items sellerRogue, Thief, Pilgrim>Pearl diverMaybe a Scout
All the answers itt can be summed up as >just imagine a better game bro
>>3839173I think the games with the most consequences to your choices are one of those porn games, where if you pick the cheerleader you can no longer have the nerdy hot girl.
>>3839218name 10 roleplaying games released ever with meaningful choices that cant be uncharitably described as not mattering.
You new to betheseda games? Its the same in every one.

>>3840454daggerfall (especially unity with mods) is also something pretty unique. i haven't found any other massive open world first person life sims. once you add in the quest/guild mods it becomes even more fun. the modders could have contributed to something else (quest mods for veloren, walking around stations/planets and mission mods in that open source elite 2 clone, star field missions) but they chose daggerfall and gave it the most content.
