Everytime I play pic related I feel a sense of profound emptiness in my heart that gets worse the longer I play...

I still remember my friend telling me about this game and how you could sneak around and eavesdrop on people and snipe with a bow and get assassin contracts done if you decide to join with the molag tong. I got to borrow his Xbox CD for Morrowind and play it myself and I was blown away but the freedom. And to this day I still feel like Morrowind had the best freedom with the most interesting quests.

interesting perspective. I love morrowind but i agree the npc do make the world feel robotic. despite this i like the setting and the world and the lore. i wish more games would be as aesthetic as morrowind

it's one of those things that is unique to open world games. after playing one for a certain amount of years it just becomes impossible to think of new headcanon, you've done every combination of playstyles you could have imagined. making all the pieces fall together just right for the 50th is too much work.

Never felt this.

Its because the game is so awkwardly designed. Like all Elder Scrolls games.

You will not get this feeling by playing a straightfowrard jrpg with good old exp level system, instead of some lets gt hit by mobs to level endurance, but not much, then sneak against the wall for two hours bullshit.

What kind of mods are you guys hoping for once OpenMW is complete and modders can do practically whatever they want?

Motherfucking VR

>missing in VR
sounds great

Are there any mods that expand on corprus in Morrowind? Other than the fact that you get it in the main quest, it's pretty much just there for story purposes. Only one NPC has it and you're highly unlikely to catch it from her. The game has Resist Corprus spells that are basically just for role playing. Some enemies have Weakness to Corprus spells.
So, does any mod add corprus to more creatures and NPCs? Makes it more interesting and threatening? Maybe make it so if you catch it outside the main quest, you can... I dunno, live in the corprusarium or something.

If none exists maybe I'll try it.

Doesn't matter, nobody will survive scroll of icarian flight in VR

Corprus doesn't only affect the player, by the way. If you cheat to give it to other NPCs, their stats get penalties and bonuses daily, just like the player. But if you leave them alone for too long, their stats will reset to their normal value.

Final fantasy XV makes me a feel a bigger and bigger pit I my stomach as I get nearer to the end, same with MGSV. So much potential wasted after such high hopes, honestly soul destroying. Hardest I've ever felt this is when you get to Lunas kingdom and its completely destroyed and you hear that haunting soundtrack, the entire last 10 hours of final fantasy XV fill me with actual uncomfortable dread.

your argument is nonsensical, are you saying op's feeling of emptiness is just because of the skill based levelling system?

Not an emptiness, but it makes me long for a simpler existence. Those wood hut towns along the coast like Gnisis and Hla Oad look real nice. Shelter, fire, food and company. Not the cosiest locations, but simple and very attractive in a fantasy sense.

God damnit, I started soul trapping all the Dagoths I could find, but they all take Grand Souls gems and I didn't realize there were so damn many of them, but I feel invested now. I constantly have to raid bandit caves now to keep up supplies.

I think a merchant in Mournhold has a restocking supply of grand soul gems.

Is there a mod that adds store schedules or even adds some basic schedules to NPCs?

I just looked it up. There are 45 dagoths.
Good luck!

Yeah but I have a mod that disables the expansions till certain conditions are met, so I can't get there yet. I read the Ash Vampires vanish when you kill Dagoth Ur, but the others don't right? I think I'll just ignore the others and collect the Ash Vampires so I can kill Dagoth Ur and get to Mournhold.

Why the fuck are there so many? I'm guess it's like several generations of House Dagoth all brought back by Dagoth Ur? Or is just a title at this point and any old cultist can become a Dagoth?

There's mods that like teleport NPCs around and disable them and shit like that based on schedules but it's all smoke and mirrors. If you are looking for something similar to the later games then it doesn't exist because Radiant AI doesn't exist in Morrowind.

I don't think emptiness is the right word for me. But I do feel a sense of longing for a game to be made with the resources and graphics of today's capabilities but of the same ethos that Morrowind had. Starting small in a fantasy alien world. Slowly gaining items, magic, and exploring the nooks and crannies. The beginning swamp area feels like a genuine home with which to branch out of.

So much potential but it looks like shit even with mods and there are plenty of design flaws. But he possibilities feel damn near endless.

I always get a weird sense of lost futures, wondering where else TES could've headed other than Oblivion. It's not that I dislike Oblivion, but I get vague feelings things could've gone in a more alien direction - closer to Morrowind and less similar to other fantasy worlds.

Smoke and mirrors is what I was expecting. Got a link?

I get this a lot. Sometimes I'll play a game and wish it had a sequel, then remember it does, and it sucks.

Oblivion is so autistically comfy that I can't imagine it any other way

I don't have any links. I just remember seeing these mods over the years and deciding they aren't worth installing given what they do. I don't think anyone ever really recommends installing them. A big problem, apparently, is you can't remove one if you install it and decide you don't like it because the NPCs will be all fucked up. There's no kind of "auto-recovery" like the later TES games have when you mess with NPCs locations and states.

it makes me feel really lonely but i enjoy that aspect of it.

is there something wrong with the steam version, besides giving Todd my money?

>instead of some lets gt hit by mobs to level endurance
Just poke them with spear to level endurance

Dagoths iirc were from around Urs time and were brought back with him, and honestly 45 doesn't sound like many. Remember all the NPCs that belong to each house faction?

It doesn't come with the add-ons but they're freely available anyway and they aren't really a big deal. GOG version comes with them.

Yeah but the surname suggest they're related to each other, not just under that house. I don't think there's even a single actual Redoran in the game, and only a hand full of Hlaalus.

master index add on is pretty damn good. Makes the mage guild teleport system far better by making caldera a hub for every other dunmer fortress.

I feel it too. Morrowind has a heavy atmosphere where you truly feel like a outsider in a strange/alien world. The world is big with a ton of content but feels empty at the same time, it's weird.

Playing Morrowind also makes me think of a bygone era of PC games and how we'll never get another game like Morrowind again which makes me sad.

i get this exact same feeling playing this game

>a lonely god constantly holding back in an attempt to construct the illusion that the world around you is alive.
well, you are nerevar reincarnate, you're basically a meta lonely god with uber powers of dreams creating the world and denying death through prophecy. it be trippy like that man

empty?ive been playing this game since 2002 it;s the most constant thing in my life. I have dreams where I am in morrowind. And it never gets old because of the neverdying modding community
t.morrowind build with 356 mods and counting

>another "Yea Forums is unreasonably melodramatic about the games they play" episode

cool. but you know what? you wouldn't have to feel that way if your real life wasn't that fucked up.

some games just make you feel very lonely, morrowind is one of them. i feel this with some of the metroid games. its not pleasant and i dont like it.

stalker kinda does it but in that game its comfy.

very good explanation

Damn I wish the Dwemer didn't disappear 'cause you'd have gotten along with them pretty well.
