So when does this game start playing more like a game and less like dogshit?

dunno been playing morroblivion and it's ok but at the same time I don't like how there's more trees and grass in Vvardenfell
Morrowind's landscape in the base game has a bit more charm
I prefer Oblivion's combat though

>the game where animals can't avoid your swings if they're in range, and humans either parry or actively avoid your attacks instead of arbitrarily missing due to dice rolls
not seeing the problem

Frankly? Yes, although it should be mentioned that the Gothic series is more conservative when it comes to lore and will only divulge its aspects piecemeal at a time (unlike Morrowind).

that's fine with me. so long as I can explore the series rather than just getting smacked down outside of city limits and never be able to go get a new history book.

Sure it is less accessible than mororwind, considering that Morrowinds combat is just a generic D&D style dicerole shit where u just left click and pray that your hit lands, while in gothic you actually have to factor in timing and be in control of your actions if you want to survive.

You sure proved that.

From the very beginning, if not then I'm sorry, you just suck OP.

>durr it’s not clunky, it’s sensical and intuitive
>have to mod the game to get a control scheme resembling something from this century

when you realize how many different guilds there are, and how much insanely valuable loot is laying around in smuggler caves waiting to be sold. when you're taking a shortcut through the water and find a shipwreck or a cave or even ruins. when you realize that you can fly.

Never.
Morrowind fags would eat actual feces if they remembered doing it as a child.
