Morrowind feels bigger than skyrim and oblivion combined... I feel lost in this world, I struggle to navigate it. Everything is scary, and surreal. Walking through the ashlands for the first time as a level 1 and stumbling across bandits and other travelers who braved the landscapes.

Looking up at the night sky and seeing the red moon dwarf everything else in comparison. Why do people even play oblivion or skyrim? This game has so much more content, and even the mods dwarf the games in comparison.

oblivion

>lush landscapes
>actual fun quests sometimes
>combat actually felt revolutionary

cant tell you how much i wish i was mentally capable of actually modding oblivion more thoroughly but alas

i just dont enjoy morrowinds hostile environments sometimes, it's just not what i want when i play a bethesda game

Morrowind felt much more alien than Skyrim or Oblivion.

in a good way though.

Thats the entire point. Rolling up in skyrim or oblivion and having everyone kiss your ass is no fun.

>comfy
this is the only praise that retards have for oblivion; when they say "comfy" it means familiar, shallow, easily accessible and doesn't make you think/read anything.

>revolutionary combat
holy shit lmao

>younger crowd on /v/ plays Morrowind as their first TES game
>completely get the wrong idea about the series as a whole

>they're all too young to understand just how crushing a disappointment Morrowind was for TES fans

I'm fond of Morrowind myself, but it's mid-tier at best.

Morrowind gets way faster than even a 100 speed Oblivion character

No it generally means how comfy you are playing the game, dummy. Skyrim is hailed as shallow yet it is not comfy at all.

After the dumpster pile that was Daggerfall, Morrowind was a disappointment?
>>
>>381164818
>revolutionary combat
Holy shit, off yourself.Oblivion has the worst case of damage sponge in any game, combined with it's retarded leveling system that actually makes you weaker as you level up.
>>
>>381166739
This is getting too meta for me.

>every elder scrolls game after the last one was considered bad until a new one came out
>>
>>381167014
Not weaker. You get to fight stronger and more interesting monsters. You don't get to see minotaurs and liches until higher levels.
>>
>>381166463
the genuinely creative setting and interesting environments were the main draws. it was also really big and encouraged free roaming exploration

the main appeal of daggerfall is the mind boggling scope of the world. it's huge and has thousands of settlements, each populated by hundreds of npcs. it's all shallow and procedurally generated, but still impressive

skyrim and oblivion's main failing is that they spend way too many resources on graphics and voice acting, which forces them to greatly reduce the size and scope of things so peoples' machines can run the game.
>>
>>381166480
>feeling comfortable playing a game is somehow a bad thing

Uh oh. Tryhard alert.
>>
>>381167217
There's nothing creative about Morrowind's setting.
>>
>>381167162
Which is completely fucking retarded and murders any sense of progression.
What's the point of leveling up if all enemies and loot are scaled to your levels.I hate how, for example, goblins go extinct once you reach level 15.

i'd spit in your face for saying that
>>
>>381166739
no, a bad game is a bad game

at the end of the day, tes is an open world game series. is the world of morrowind interesting? have the developers thought long about what this world is like? its people, customs, history, relationship with other states, geography, religion, native flora/fauna etc? in morrowind, yes, oblivion no. what's the point of exploring another world when that world is stock standard? this is what is most important to an open world game: the world.
>>
>>381167716
now this is bait
>>
oblivion is best elder scrolls. case closed.
>>
>>381165128
That's because it's set in a bizarro cursed ashland elfhole with literally satan living in a volcano, trapped inside by ancestors' bones, fucking around with the heart of the world with ancient heretical dorf tools. Meanwhile Skyrim is "hey y'all niggers ever heard of Vikings?"

>>381166860

>b-b-b-buh muh enchantments
Fuck off. Speedwalking for 5 seconds drains you fully for like half of the fucking game.

no, the ultima rip-off era of TES games sucked and everyone knew it.

>not jumping from city to city with your 100pt jump 1 second spell and slowfalling before you hit the ground
yet another thing morrowind does better is moving around the world
