>you have to walk up to every corpse and press "delete corpse" in a menu, otherwise the game shits itself, because the devs couldn't figure out how to despawn entities
>this is shilled as some kind of classic
Has there ever been a bigger LARP in gaming culture?
>>
Did you play on X-Box like a retard or something? At no point has one ever been required to remove corpses, even in 2002. The game ran like shit at the time because of its janky unoptimized engine, not because of corpses.
>>
>>4022444
what?
corpses disappear after 3 days in any dungeon bro
only overworld and non-dungeon interiors don't disappear, are you going around fucking killing everything?
>>
It's now proven you can post the silliest bait, and get someone arguing

>>4022460
Corpses outside of interor locations (most of the game) don't dissapear, on modern machines this shouldn't cause an issue but on 2002 era rigs this did absolutely cause problems, because every corpse increases your savegame filesize, and for some reason that causes crashes and other issues
here's some 2000s gamefaqs threads proving this was a problem back then

>game becomes literally unplayable on the system it was made for
>hurr durr should've travelled back in time with a 2026 gaming PC, this is a flawless masterpiece
OP is right, anyone who played the game back then knows that you literally HAD to routinely delete corpses otherwise the game would start chugging and crashing
>>
>>4022461
>but on 2002 era rigs this did absolutely cause problems
False. I played the game in 2002 extensively and I have literally never heard of a single problem having this problem.
>here's some 2000s gamefaqs threads proving this was a problem back then
Xbox links. I am assuming that you’re just baiting, and not actually (this) retarded.
>>
>>4022467
the xbox was more powerful than the average pc at the time

No more (you)s for that level of effort. Take some pride in your trolling.

you think the turbonerds who played elder scrolls games back then were settling for the average PC?

Why the fuck would you leave corpses laying around anyway, it's fucking tacky, and they give you a literal dispose of evidence button.

Whatever, Morrowind thread.

I had completely underestimated the Serpent birthsign. Sure it's not optimal but it's very good especially at very low levels. I had fun assassinating some foes beyond my means with it.

This game is alright.

>90 damage over a half-minute
c'mon dude
>>
>>4028256
Half an ordinator's healthbar for 5 points/100% chance isn't absolutely the worst thing. You can also cast it multiple times for different enemies and it only re-news your self damage so the side-effects are easily countered.
It's not the best shit ever but it's not as worthless as I had thought.
>>
>>4027950
I got that shit for my birthday when I was like 6 years old and played it to death, and this is a zoomer (i was poor as a kid)

How do you retards actually justify talking about this game like this? It is so fucking easy it's not even worth strategizing or optimizing anything. I dont mean that in a bad way but wtf? Are we actually gonna discuss which cheat code starsign power is the best in 2026
>>
>>4028266
This isn't a game where I put coins to try to beat it zoomer. You can make up your own rules and have fun doing things the hard way if you find it more enjoyable. If you think the point is to beat it you are mentally challenged.

me, buying a ring of toxic cloud with 10% of the cost of the limeware platter at level 2:

thats a very complicated way of just pointing at someone and bashing their skull in
>>
>>4028268
This is my point exactly you fucking autist. You are discussing the merits and downsides of powers in a game that is so fucking easy to break you constantly have to be trying not to break it lol i found the blade of white woe as a literal 8 year old
>>
>It's easier to do it this way
Might as well buy some scrolls and nuke everything. You are missing the point.
>>
>>4028273
that sounds more interesting than the typical play, some kind of librarian nerd
>>
>>4028275
Nah apparently nothing is interesting. Always and without fail just do the needful and steal the alchemy gear from Caldera, fortify intelligence potions and redeem them to achieve godhood.
>>
>>4028278
just giving you a hard time. I don't try to walk uphill both ways but I don't do the same broken shit every playthrough either. I'm playing TR right now and I'm still using a silver sword at level 5 because nothing else has thrown itself down in front of me as I wander around the TR content doing quests and I'm not using bound weapons.
>>
>>4028334
*but I did pick steed because c'mon
>>
>>4028336
Steed is QoL. I'm a fan of sabers for swords since they are light and pretty fast.
>>
>>4028273
Are you retarded? My point is that you can play this game without even reading what stats do and be completely fine. You are actually weighing the value of the literal cheat code star powers as though it matters in a game that is 25 years old
>>
>>4028352
And my point is that your point is completely irrelevant.
>>
>>4028357
You are trying to defend your autistic loser pointless imageboard conversation about power ups in a 25 year old game that has been played to death based on the auspice that youre some kind of sovl enjoying challenge master. Morrowind is a game for children
>>
>>4028365
>imaginary scenario
Look retard. I really don't care about your opinion on the matter if you're going to be that much out of base.
>>
>>4028373
You went into a retarded bait thread trying to mock a 25 year old shitty game and tried to turn it into your larp session where you brag about using powers besides the lady like anybody gives a fuck besides other retards that played their first computer rpg at age 20. This is not imaginary, you have been doing it even after i left the thread
>>
>>4028380
I really don't care about how you lost your father because of Morrowind and your tragic backstory that explains your autistic hateboner for it.
>>
>>4028385
I went back and looked and indeed you ended your gay op with "This game is alright." so you are indeed probably a 19 year old retard who got a gaming pc for his 17th birthday and just discovered morrowind last week
>>
>>4028388
Whatever helps you sleep at night.

From the sounds of it the whir of a computer fan is all you need to fall asleep. Tell me more about "the point" as you elaborated here though LOL>>4028273

That post is objectively correct? The Xbox came out in 2001, why would they release a console that was worse than the average PC at the time? Even if what you're implying is true and this wasn't a problem on the best gaming rigs of the era, it'd still be a problem for the majority of players.

it was a mainstream release for normies, next you'll tell me about the "turbonerds who played skyrim in 2011"

I know you retards are baiting, but for the benefit of some hapless zoomer reading the thread and doesn’t know better:
Because the Xbox was sold at a loss for $300 (the hardware probably cost Microsoft 400-500) and a good gaming PC then was about $2,000, you dumb dumbs. Consoles have always been significantly cheaper (and thus more widespread), they have never been “as good or better”

You're nothing but a common homosexual, OP.
>>
>>4028495
I know you're not baiting, you're actually retarded.
Please explain what you think is the causal relationship between being sold at a loss and hardware quality. HINT: in a free market economy, anything can be sold for any price

A $400 computer is shittier than a $2000 computer. Hope this helps. Not sure what you get out of “pretending” to be a moron on the Internet.

>>4028567
It's becoming redditor at this point to continually repeat yourself, im afraid to tell you

>A $400 computer is shittier than a $2000 computer.
1) Do you understand what "sold at a loss" means?
2) The claim wasn't "you couldn't get a computer better than the xbox in 2002" it was "the xbox was better than the average PC in 2002"
>>
>>4029019
>1) Do you understand what "sold at a loss" means?
Do you understand why I referred to the x-box as a "$400 computer" (the hardware cost) and not a "$299 computer" (the list price)?
>2) The claim wasn't "you couldn't get a computer better than the xbox in 2002" it was "the xbox was better than the average PC in 2002"
The x-box used a laptop CPU (Intel Celeron mobile 733 MHz) which was shittier than my PC from 1999, and this was the era when three years was an eternity in PC hardware growth. The average gaming PC of the day absolutely crushed the x-box, that's why the x-box was multiple times cheaper than the average gaming PC. That was the entire point of the x-box, it was a shitty cheap PC you could plug into the TV and play games on, for people who didn't have or couldn't afford a good gaming PC. Consoles have always been lower-end and cheaper alternatives to a real computer, that's why they were popular.
The number of games that came out on both PC and console, and which had to be neutered or modified in order to run "acceptably" (i.e. a choppy 30 FPS) due to the lower hardware capabilities of the console, is too lengthy to list.
>inb4 hurrrrrr I wasn't talking about GAMING PCs by "average PC" I meant grandma's Compaq or E-Machines or whatever the fuck trolololol I was only pretending to be retarded on purpose
Fuck off.
>>
>>4022457
>>4022461
Both slightly wrong. Corpses disappear after 3 in-game days, BUT that 3-day timer resets if you enter/load the specific cell containing them. So if you aren't normally passing a lot of time resting/waiting/traveling some corpses near your most trafficked areas like cities may never disappear
>>
>>4022468
>the xbox was more powerful than the average pc at the time
Sounds plausible, at least as powerful as the average household PC.
Kind of like that steam's gabecube aiming to be the standard spec machine.
>>
>>4029632
>Sounds plausible
It’s extremely lazy bait.
>at least as powerful as the average household PC
It wasn’t.
