Awful combat that has zero depth to it without its already simplistic numbers.

Quests don't have anywhere near the variety in objectives that Oblivion and Skyrim do since Morrowind is so reliant on its stat based abstractions.

Morrowind has more NPCs than Oblivion and Skyrim combined, but they are all generic as fuck with 99% of dialogue options being the exact same. Variety is non-existent. Not having actual NPC schedules like every other TES game doesn't help either.

People praise this game's encouraging of exploring and understanding directions, yet it turns out to be tedious most of the time. I doubt any of you hardcore fans can tell me the names of all Foyadas and exactly where they are without looking it up on the internet first.

Morrowind has the worst dungeons in the series. They aren't the intricate labyrinths of the games before it, while nowhere near as fun to traverse as the modern game dungeons which may have more "straight" path, but each individual bit of a dungeon's far more open than boring/restricted. Also the Tribunal Sewers are the worst dungeons in the series.

The game's most lauded features are its custom magic and its freedom. It's magic system is very hampered by the combination of how clunky the inventory system is with constant pausing/unpausing and how awful the combat is. Both the magic and freedom are also pointless when the game itself has so few systems implemented in it in terms of how the rest of the game interacts with the player as a result of their actions.

Morrowind is the most overrated game on /v/ and possibly of all time. Get better taste.

train your bow skills
the higher the bow skill the longer the distance you can hit people from further away

at high bow % you can snipe enemies from a long distance

Newfriends get conned into playing Morrowind and find out how shit it really is.
They start pointing out its numerous flaws

Now oldfags try to con people into playing Gothic.
Why are oldfags such bastards?
We get it you had to play some shitty games when you were a kid no need to make us suffer as well.
It was just your bad luck to grow up in the dark age of gaming.

everything in that picture is useful to the player and worth picking up. It's not useless filler trash like Morrowind has - cups, forks, spoons etc

The dialogue in Morrowind is really its most serious problem. Its so fucking lame coming to a town, and every NPC has literally the exact same, word for word dialogue. It really destroys almost all the immersion.

Not just /v/ but basically the entire internet: Zelda games. Here are the ones I've played:
>first zelda
Actually fun. I like the arcade-y gameplay
>ocarina of time
Boring
>windwaker
Boring
>wii games
Boring
I'm pretty sure the only reason people like these games is nostalgia from when they were kids. The games just aren't that interesting. I haven't played BotW but it actually looks super fun even though /v/ hates it.

Is COD an RPG?
>>
>>383282432
No, because RPG doesn't mean whether you can create your own character or not, but whether there are choices that affect the world around you, you can gain experience from dialogues, you can upgrade your characters in a different ways etc.

Now answer this - so to you Planescape Torment is not an RPG but FIFA is a full-blown RPG because you can create your own character in it?
>>
>>383282824
You can also level up your character and make choices that affect the world around you in FIFA and there is dialogue where you talk to the press.
Is the FIFA the most successful RPG series ever?

oh its a bait thread

when you wanna play an rpg, play morrowind

when you wanna play babies first action adventure game, play gothic

>Awful combat that has zero depth to it without its already simplistic numbers.
What do you mean by depth? It has stats affecting how you perform, different attack types, several weapon types and skills, etc... It's okay for an RPG.

>Quests don't have anywhere near the variety in objectives that Oblivion and Skyrim do since Morrowind is so reliant on its stat based abstractions.
Most quests in Skyrim and yes, Oblivion, are still fetch/talk/kill quests. The only difference is that Oblivion painted them nice like
>go into this painting and fight painted trolls
>go into this island where they're hunting people and kill the hunters
>I need my medallion to keep my visions in check, go to this fort and kill all the bandits to fetch it
The same shit except very sparse occasions that are easily rivaled with the few quests in Morrowind that break the mold.

>People praise this game's encouraging of exploring and understanding directions, yet it turns out to be tedious most of the time
No it doesn't, especially when Morrowind gives the player the most freedom to travel with levitation and jump magic. The bit about the foyadas is fucking retarded, kys.

>It's magic system is very hampered by the combination of how clunky the inventory system is with constant pausing/unpausing and how awful the combat is.
There are quick slots you know? You don't need to open the inventory to cast spells.

don't waste your time anon

Why do people who want to talk about Morrowind always start off with obvious bait threads now? Just make a Morrowind thread.

>>383284621
I even forgot to reply to his rant about the NPCs that, to this day is the most retarded criticism one can make of Morrowind but yeah it's probably a waste of time, he's falseflagging or a kraut autist.

I'm speeding through the main quest right now and searching for Urshilaku camp.

How far along am I until the end and when does the story start getting interesting?

I liked Morrowind when I was younger but you have to be literally retarded if you think it holds a candle to games like Fallout or Baldur's Gate.

man level are hard to come by, speaking of lvl 5 +

i will go for bow skill but with only 20 dex they do no damage, but that's because i simply went for sneaking and lockpicking first
