What REALISTIC changes would you bring to this, coming off of Skyrim?

For the love of g-d please make combat fun.
These games are centered around combat and it's always fucking trash.

Realistically, this is what will happen

rip off mordhau combat and add magic

>Ancient gamebryo engine shoehorned with every lazy trick possible to make it somewhow less obvious it's a massively outdated pile of garbage
>Animations so bad even an old Playstation 1 title looks good compared
>BIG FUCKING QUEST MARKERS
>MORE BIG FUCKING MARKERS
>Terrible one dimensional dumbed down combat system, probably dumber than even Skyrim
>Small chunked map due to engine limitations
>"big capital cities" are like a dozen houses - maybe
>hahaha guys remember arrow to the knee hahahaha - joke

how else to select spells?

Combo system magic like a proper action rpg

Limits spell selection too much

>no more streamlining, maybe adding a few things back in
>fix the trash combat
>make dungeons and loot more interesting instead of being linear hallways filled with garbage
>hire a decent writer or two
realistically I expect nothing but more streamlining and some superficial additions that don't do anything to make the core gameplay better

The only positive thing I can even remotely imagine them doing is expanding the skill tree further.

>a proper action rpg
Honestly this is one of the biggest issues with current Bethesda. They keep stripping away actual RPG content and the action side hasn't evolved past Oblivion which in turn was just the abandonment of the strict dice rolling from Morrowind. You get more action out of trying to compile together a comprehensive list of mods that don't fuck each other over. is actually going to be the reality of the next Elder Scrolls.

They NEED good writing. Bad writing makes all the questing and exploring feel like a waste of time. Leveled/randomized loot only compounds this feeling.

Also, unique MQ dungeons. MQ locations should FEEL like MQ locales and the MQ should feel like the culmination of your journey, not the start or midpoint of it.

Additionally, not every single fucking quest needs to involve a dungeon. Many of Morrowind's and Oblivion's most memorable quests don't involve dungeon diving, and if they do, it only makes up a portion of the overall questline, not the whole thing like 95% of the quests in Skyrim.

Finally, Todd needs to get over his hard on for procedural generation. Sure, minor bounty quests are fine, but don't make major factions/guilds procedurally generated.

cast button like oblivion
channeled spells are equipped like items or require holding down the cast button

is it too weird or non-rpg to just cast magic like a mmo? can't i just assign spells to 1-10 and shift+1-10 and cast them directly instead pressing a button to equip and then another button to cast?

Can't really work that with controllers.
grimy utilities does that in skyrim though if you want a mod for that

How can this work on consoles

A soundtrack by Soule
Too late for that though

Just get ambient composer, they all sound the same.

Maybe instead of a celebrity voice actor that sticks around for ten lines, they can spring for Ramin Djawadi or some one.

They haven't really had a memorable soundtrack since Morrowind though, so I don't know that it matters. I don't think of music as a big part of Elder Scrolls.

Jew sighted.

A new engine. Even Bethesda have to understand that they can't use Netimmerse/Gamebryo/Creation for ANOTHER ten years.

A new engine would kill the mods that they're trying to monetize, and probably ruin their content pipeline. They'll be using this one in 2030.

The Skyrim theme is the most recognizable piece of video game music ever made dude

OP said REALISTIC and realistically Bethesda isn't going to improve shit.

Just fucking let me cast magic without have to sheathe my fucking weapon again.

release an incomplete version, pay for patches labeled as episode contents.

>keep the skill trees but bring back old abilities like acrobatics
>make birth signs work like they used to

Multiple rings because humans have multiple fingers.

The story should not bombard you to messiah in the first 10 minutes of gameplay. Tbfh becoming dragonborn at level 2 is just retarded immersion breaking and railroading.
Morrowind did this best by allowing you to doubt your position as nerevarine to the very end as well as even not considering you as a possible nerevarine until two thirds into the main quest. This allows for a lot more RP/immersion flexibility.

Honestly I even see it in wow classic now how rewarding it is to start out as nobody at all and slowly claw your way up the ranks of importance (and in the way you see fit). That's the core of a roleplaying game done well. The rest is just mechanics.

Why does everyone want redguard sword singing as the games gimmick? The wind and sand magic of alik'r mages seem way cooler to me. I bet you even the altmer were thrown off and impressed by the alik'r mages unique magics.

>they'll remove stuff
wow, real hot take you have there

you want to pretend they won't?

>Why does everyone want redguard sword singing as the games gimmick?
I doubt many WANT it, it's just that you know Bethesda will want another gimmick, and something superficially similar to "shouting" will make implementation that much easier/lazier

It's fun and probably the best thing in Fallout 4 though

Why do people keep suggesting that this game will take place in niggerfell? Black people don't play this game, why would they choose that over high rock? The bulk of the fanbase is white and the series is rooted European fantasy, set it in high rock, that's where the money is at.

i hope they can make a Skyrim 2.0, I really loved it!

It needs to be BIG and especially challenging. I want to die to a cliffracer at the start of the game. I want to sneak behind a bush in fear when I see 4 Orcs in full Orcish armor coming down the road at midgame. I want to spend half a RL day preparing new spells and creative potions to take on that one dungeon I had to leg it out of a few levels ago. Thats all even just reinstating the old. Then add:
>Expansive (voice controlled?) followers. Perhaps being able to give complex orders to followers or groups would be awesome. Commanding mercenaries, hiring thieves and finding assassins. This would free up more specialised roles for the PC.
>Actual politics, including having to keep relationships, finding out (ordering people to find out) dirt and sphere of influence competition with other political operators. Changing laws could be fun too (crack down on thieves guild or be more lax in sending out police for instance).
>All that stuff about more creative spellcrafting and alchemy. Just invent as many effects as possible and allow us as players to experiment.
>Buying and renting of property, including player homes, shops mines etc. Give me a position in the economy.

Because Highrock is where most of Daggerfall is set. Hammerfell is in that game too, but less prominent. Also dessert plains are prominent in the landscape shot. Highrock would be more mountainous.

Also I think people are just hoping it's hammerfell, because highrock is boring as fuck. Atleast Redgauard have cool lore, being kangz who nuked TES africa and then invaded Europe.

Best case scenario is Akavir, but Todd has said that he wants to keep Akavir mysterious.

Doesn't matter who they hire, that person will be outed as a rapist.

Is there ANY mod that makes Skyrim better gameplay-wise ? I dropped my playthrough halfway through and went back to Morrowind & Oblivion instead which is ironic considering I didn't even like Oblivion that much at its release.

Go to bed Todd. Ultima sucks and generic european fantasy is boring and overdone.

I'd think, after all this time, that it'd be REALISTIC to expect that they've made an entirely new game, so that it could be anything Skyrim wasn't.

Same series, same engine, same people, it'll have more in common than not.

>voiced protagonist

> Red guards, Imperials and Nords, Bretons. No longer separate races.

dude what, i needed to search for the theme to remember it, but morrowinds theme is much more recognizable

Orcs are closer to Elves than Redguards are to the other human races and for once I'm not just saying that to rustle jimmies, its actual TES lore. Redguards evolved separately on their own continent that they sunk, while orcs were made from elves via Daedric curse.

Why do you need to pick a class they made the guardian stones specifically for the 3 main archetypes in skyrim and the lover stone for any builds that mix skills

Because specializing in running faster, building things, stabbing people, and using a shield are all entirely different skills.

they're literally the same song

Let's take a look at gaming trends since 2011. Always on wallhacks is the first thing that comes to mind for me. Microtransactions are a given at this point. Maybe there will be ultimates a la Overwatch?

Why does everyone think TES VI will be bad? It could be good. TES III was amazing.

That's racist user. That can't fly in 2020.

Bethesda hasn't made a good game in more than fifteen years.

Because TES is on down ward trend and Fallout 4 just served us window into the probable future. Who knows maybe it will be awesome but chances are stacked.

The 'skyrim theme' is just the elder scrolls theme that's been tailored for skyrim here's oblivion and morrowind's

>bring Morrowind-style restrictions for factions, requiring a certain stat level to progress up the ranks
This would be retarded.

Morrowind's faction sytem made no sense because it operated solely on the NPCs somehow being able to break the 4th wall, and read you character sheet.

Realistically, factions like the Theives guild would give tow fucks how you pulled off the theft, so long as you did it within the rules they have. Be it via pure sneak skill, alchemy to make invisibility potions, magic to make yourself invisible, or you just having invisibility potions you buy, or some magic artifact that makes you invisible, they wouldn't give two fucks so long as you can get the job done.

The same is true of the Dark Brotherhood, who accept assassins of all styles, and the Mages guild, since mages frequently use magical item to boost their skills to new heights.

Stat check based guilds imply only pure skill matters, which isn't how any job works

>Realistically, factions like the Theives guild would give tow fucks

>"big capital cities" are like a dozen houses - maybe
This one pisses me off to no end. Like what the fuck? Cities are instanced anyway, make them look like they can hold more than 100 people

Bethesda knows that all they need to do is make TES 6 good and they will be golden for a decade. One good Elder Scrolls game is worth 10 horrific games in public currency.

Small cities in Bethesda games are the result of the way Bethesda designs games.

Theres a whole lot of factors to it but mainly
-The fact that every item on an NPC is rendered as a separate objected, compared to something like GTA or Witcher 3 where all of an NPCs clothes are fused as one object, and they have no actual body under their clothes
-The fact that Bethesda gives indivdiual scripting to every named NPC, and even many generic named NPCs, compared to something like Witcher 3 or GTA where all the NPCs in towns run off of the same "walk around the block"script
-The fact that every item in a Bethesda game is moveable, and physics enabled, and every time an object gets moved it gets saved into the game data until the cell resets
Creates a lot more performance drain compared to something like GTA or W3.

People have made GTA style large cities all the way back as far as Morrowind, it isn't hard, tit just requires stripping away any intractability... much like how GTa has little to none.

There isn't a single semi-memorable NPC in Skyrim, they'd be better off with everyone on a needs/priority based scripting system. They're burning a lot of calories on a method that nets them zero benefit.

Three combat styles:
>First person real-time like Skyrim is the routine mode
>VATS-style; Superhot-esque combos can be activated on meter
>Isometric, tactical mode also tied to meter

Attached: trans.jpg (1280x720, 114K)

Watch Dogs, for all its flaws of which there are many, did have plenty of scripted npc events despite being a large city. Not sure what you mean with fused npc clothes? It's not like the game loads every npc in the city upon entering it, unless the devs are retards

>Witcher 3 where all of an NPCs clothes are fused as one object
can't speak for GTA, but you can individually remove items from NPCs in Witcher, it isn't a "clothes are part of body" thing

Greater weapon variety
Bigger and better battles
Better faction questlines that don’t just end with you becoming leader after 6 quests

TESVI is vaporware

Oh i get the clothes thing now. I can't into reading today apparently

Update NPC dialogue so I don't get told to join the Mages guild when I'm the Arch-Mage

> Not sure what you mean with fused clothes?
In games like GTA, NPCs don't have bodies under their clothes, and all of their clothes are rendered as a single object, with any visible skin basically being sewn onto the clothes where they meet. Like hands are sewn into sleeves.

They do this to save processing power per NPC,by cutting down how many individual objects the game is loading, and can get away with it because you can't actually loot all the clothing off of NPCs you kill in these games.

In a Bethesda game, since you can loot everything off of an NPC, the NPC's body, and all the clothes/armor/jewelry they are wearing gets rendered as separate objects, so these items can be dynamically removed if you kill them and loot them.

This means every individual NPC in a Bethesda game takes up more processing power to show, compared to if you put that same NPC in a GA style game, since the NPC in a Bethesda game has to render several times more objects compared to a GTA NPC.

This means there can't be as many NPCs on the screen at once compared to GTA, without suffering performance loss.

>It's not like the game loads every npc in the city upon entering it
Every NPC that is outside in the city map it does. NPCs in buildings, which are separate cells, no.

SPELL MAKING AND ENCHANTING IS NOW ONE SKILL

>There isn't a single semi-memorable NPC in Skyrim,
Memes

I'd hire modders with my pile of cash and make a good TES.

faggy meme bullshit like black whiterun man are the only thing skyrim has even approaching a memorable character

It just works

1. Wrong
2. It's not even Skyrim's - it's just a combo of Morrowind and Daggerfall's.

Most recognizable would likely be Tetris, Pac-Man, or Mario

just release skyrim in high rock and put all their effort into engine stability

It'll be another potato land action rpg with shitty mechanics. Damn shame, as Morrowind is still one the best games I've played ever. Maybe cpdr will motivate Bethesda to finally get their shit together again, but I doubt it.

> as Morrowind is still one the best games I've played ever.
Morrowind is ass, and I love Morrowind.

Pretty much every single system or mechanic in that game is horribly broken beyond even Skyrim's systems.

Some things are more than just a collection of mechanics.

woah WOAH user hold on there let me quote for you

Nostalgia aside, you need to judge games when they were first released. Of course older games are gonna perform poorly by today's standards (apart from stuff like writing perhaps). Morrowind was phenomenal at its release and while it was clunky and buggy, it did manage to deliver a unique and expansive gaming experience. Something that seems to diminish as the series progresses.

If I can't answer your question, I will pay you five hundred septims. Dunmer nods.

Altmer asks, how many shades of light in Ayleid magic rituals? Dunmer gives proud high elf five gold. Dunmer asks, what is big as silt strider in morning, small as Scrib in evening, and purple at night? Altmer is outraged. He thinks and thinks, then gives Dunmer five hundred gold and asks "Fine, what is big as silt strider in the morning, small as scrib in evening, and purple at night?" Dunmer gives him five gold.

Not having shitty combat and "difficulty" that's just multiplying enemy health/resistances.
Not having every single character look butt ugly.
Weapons/gear gained as rewards not being dogshit compared to crafted weapons.
Magic not sucking ass at higher levels.

you joke but that's probably how the game will end up

He's right though. Highrock is basically not!Medieval France/England, the kind of setting we've already seen like 1000 times in videogames.

We need an exotic and new setting and Hammerfell is perfect for that. 1001 Night settings are very rare in video games.

Bethesda has the budget. All of these things could be done easily because all of them exist within Gamebryo already.

Why?

Because more options are a good thing, Zoomer.

>Add more weapon classes, including spears, short swords (so daggers can go back to being fucking daggers), and maybe some others with appropriate tradeoffs.

Daggers never stopped being daggers

Quantity over quality, then?

new devs

Which is what exactly? The attributes? That can't be right, those were fine in Morrowind.

Just remake Daggerfall with better graphics

They hated him because he told the truth.

Sex mods

Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim basically already do that with skill books hidden around the world and the occasional quest that rewards skill points.

Okay gramps, but before we discuss this even further. I would like understand what you meant by the skills and attributes system and if we're talking about the same one. Are we talking about the same system that forces you to pick skills and attributes before showing what they even do. The same system that punishes players for picking skills that they intend on using. Making it so when they lvl up the attribute distribution is going to be all over the place, since in order to lvl you need to up 10 skills. And to +5 a character you need 10 SKILLS making it so if you don't autistically meta train like a fucking Pokemon game to +5 each stats then good luck fighting a blighted cliff racer son.The same system that basically forced players to constantly remake characters until they made a good class(wich always ended up being made up of shit they weren't planning on using) making them loose all roleplay value because "Oh, he's just the fifth one." Are we talking about that fucked system? Or just adding back spears?

You fucking wish. With the Bethesda store now in action, you will never see modding again.

>Are we talking about the same system that forces you to pick skills and attributes before showing what they even do.
Not him but read a fucking manual.

You mean an rpg actually naturally makes you specialize in certain things unless you intentionally build yourself into becoming god at all things? How dare they?

Key word is SHOW. For example as cheesy as Oblivions opening was atleast the players got to feel how each play style felt like.
I fucking love Morrowind but i can take of my rose tinted goggles and see all it's flaws and the intro tutorial where you steal shit from the imperial consesus kitchen that just let you free was not a good tutorial.

Why in the ever loving fuck is anyone still a Bethesda-fag? Skyrim was shit, Fallout 3 & 4 were shit, and Fallout 76 is just a massive fucking pile of shit.

Separate human races is one of the few things that distinguishes the setting from other generic fantasies.

Im not sure if this is (you) but you just said
>Because more options are a good thing, Zoomer
But then you said
>You mean an rpg actually naturally makes you specialize in certain things unless you intentionally build yourself into becoming god at all things? How dare they?
So having one character only able to do specific things in one playthrough.
Does that sound like more options?

Second one is not me. You make the false assumption that the combat system would also carry over from Morrowind with the skill system. In a system like Oblivion or Skyrim, your complaints are worthless. If it isn't a dice roll to hit, all builds are viable. The attribute and skill system from Morrowind in terms of options with the modernized combat system would be ideal. It creates more options and more playstyles.

Not him but a two of morrowind's attributes were built around the diceroll combat. You probably want something close to Oblivion's attributes.

Wait make that three since willpower also affected a diceroll (spell success chance).

That's a fair point, but it's also nitpicky. My suggestion is to have the extensive options from Morrowind, not the baggage from it. Oblivion narrowed options too much.

>All the modding community moves to homebrew pirate versions
Todd won't like this.

Oblivion's soundtrack was the best in the series you nerd

Skyrim was better

He was lead writer for a lot of Telltale games.

dedicated casting button was gay as fuck

It's far better than first having to switch to a spell and then use the weapon swing button to cast the spell.

it's really not

Has Bethesda given you any indication that they are getting better at what they're doing? They're getting worse, they are completely out of touch with what makes a game good. You shouldn't have high hopes for this game.

but fallout 4 was better than fallout 3

>what the fuck has he even been doing for the last 16 years?
Pic related from his linkedin.
He was lead designer on Batman S2 and TWD S4 at Telltale. When the company suddenly imploded he was picked up by Skybound with the essential crew members to finish the last two episodes.

Now he's part of a new studio that formed in February and hasn't made a game yet. Its founder was the director of Dead Space and he says he wants to make AAA quality games right off the bat. Sounds overambitious for a new studio so it's doubtful they will succeed, but that's where he's at for now.

Attached: Screenshot.png (990x3767, 444K)

Should be a hybrid system. You can quickcast weaker spells but need to equip stronger ones to cast them dedicated. Maybe tie it to your magic school skill so at first you can only cast apprentice level spells or whatever and at the max skill level you can cast all but the most powerful spells of the school without needing to focus them.

I got it, turn every magic tree into two trees
One handed spells
Two handed spells

since Todd is a shameless hack we might see some wicher3 map design with shit to do behind every hedge

Bring back on cast enchantments, it's shitty that every enchantment is now just a constant passive or an on strike enchantment.

They're going to go all in with the Hearthstone shit and the base building from Fallout 4

Expect them to try and monetize mods again

I hope they give us better companions and let us have a decently sized party of 4 people out of like 15 recruitables in the base game.

Mordhau or Kingdom Come styled sword combat

Deep combat mechanics, including fist fights. Skyrim fistfights were atrocious, it was basically just who had more HP would win, or spamming WASD in circles to dodge their attacks. Blocking does nothing in this ADD game. Make swings faster like in Oblivion, add counters, parries, grapples etc.

Add non-lethal option for people roleplaying as brigands and rogues etc, I'd like to be able to fistfight someone in town without them pulling a weapon, knock them out and then go to jail, then next time I see them they remember our fight and are pissy towards me. (Not instantly hostile and attacking either).

Add bodily damage, I want to attack legs and arms, I want them to act like I just attacked their legs and arm. I'm not talking Fallouts atrocious "Cripple" system, I mean if I swing a fucking warhammer at your legs you fall flat on your ass and crawl, or if I slice your arm you drop your weapon and run.

Best of all, I want all of this to apply to the player aswell. I want the player to be able to get knocked out and land in jail (if by guards) a dungeon (If by bandits etc) or just straight up killed (If by random enemies who have nothing to gain from locking you up). I want the player to actually be able to get fucked legs and arms. If I get cut in the arm by an NPC I want to run away to fight another day, if I get cut in the leg I want to panic and fight for my life as I try to crawl or defend myself.

I want to roleplay. Not just mindless killing for the sake of being the unbeatable hero, I want my player to be like any other human and you actually have to fight and get REAL experience to be able to kill anyone.

On the contrary the progression from zero to hero was always the main hook for TES games to me but it was mostly well done until Morrowind because it happened over a large time frame. Oblivion had that too but it falls down quickly as soon as the level scaling kicked in full gear. Skyrim was nowhere near as enjoyable on that front since there isn't a real hobo phase so to speak, both gameplay wise and how people interact with you.

How is that on the contrary? I completely agree with you that you should start as a zero and gain experience.

I guess I misunderstood your post as you wanted the hardships of the hobo phase to last till the end of the game.

After chivalry and mordhau and all the combat mods that have existed since Oblivion I really don't think they can get away with having such terrible first person combat again. It's a shame how the actual worst part of any elder scrolls is the actual fighting itself.

I'm not saying it has to copy mordhau or something like that, but it is a clear working example of first person combat with melee weapons being done in a way that's skillful and engaging rather than Bethesda style combat where you just walk in to hit the guy and then walk backwards to "Dodge" etc.

You forgot to add a karma system akin to fallout 3, for maximum ass cancer

I think if a game like Skyrim had a combat system like Mount and Blade it would already be great. In Mount and Blade the combat is easy to learn and difficult to master. With a high level in that game you can still get your ass kicked if you don't pay any attention to what you're doing and blindly charge into a group of enemies. I think that would give a far more rewarding experience if being good meant leveling up and actually mastering the combat.

This.
And also put huge pointy markers in the sky to tell you from what route you should go next to save time and not get lost.

Make it happen Todd!

Pretty much this.

Well, kinda. I want the hero stuff to be in the game, but it shouldn't make you able to withstand 40000 warhammer strikes. But stuff like being able to jump high if you have acrobatics is fine.

explains why the stories in them were awful

have you actually played daggerfall or are you namedropping it for zoomer cred

>nu tes
yikes

I fully anticipate this.

>realistic

it's a fucking video game, go home zoomer

They have no reason to learn any lessons in making their games better since they sell better each time. Their audience loves it. Skyrim sold exponentially better than Oblivion and Morrowind. They have no reason not to continue dumbing it all down into just an action game with some skill choices tacked on. Same story with Fallout 4.

He's not saying that they should add realism to the game retard, he asks us for something they could realistically add, like what they would have the opportunity and resources to add to the game. Shit for brains.

Modders can fix everything as long as the foundation is solid

Crossing my fingers for good mounted combat

A showdown spanning a barren stretch of the Alik'r desert, me vs a horde of bandits on horseback. Clouds of sand following behind as I dodge arrows and close in to cut the sorry fucks down.

No game has done mounted combat well.
I'm hoping Bethesda will pull off a miracle.
All it would take is for them to give a fuck about it.

just give me waifus, it's the only thing i can see them adding that might be somewhat fun

>generic droning sounds
it fits skyrim but it's not even close to being as good as morrowind or oblivion's

More engaging side stories some of which happen independent of the player but the player can influence.
Seriously, I really really like Skyrim, but that civil was handled poorly.
The other thing I’d love I’d locking off certain quests based on others completed. The moment I realised I could be head of both the Dark Brotherhood and Theives Guild I groaned.
More voices, duh. Skyrim was leagues better than games before it in that regard, but these games always need more voice actors. Fuck celebrity cameos just add more voices all around.
I’d also like the stat creation to revert back to the previous games rather than Skyrim.
More fleshed our combat and class specialisation would be nice as well.
Base it in Elsweyr and I’d be happy

this is exactly what i expect bethestards to do

>Locking opportunities based on choices
I agree but only as long as there's a way to alternate start after your first playthrough so we're not forced to do the core story missions over and over

Guild Wars Nightfall disagrees with you user
you can do NotAfrica/Arabia pretty easily

Breton Master Race

Talos is not a breton.

Hmmm,I wonder who is behind this post

I want them to show more cool lore. Maybe a quick trip to Yokuda? More info about the convention, The walkabout and kalpas would be awesome.

Whenever you activate a quest the game turns into a rail shooter like at the arcade and takes you to the dungeon.
Replace chests and items with a loot screen when you exit dungeon.

sounds like Oblivion to me

I can't be bothered typing it out again, here you go.

miss me with that gay shit

Nah, Oblivion only lets you fast travel to the cities from the get-go, similar to Skyrim but you don't need to pay and can do it from anywhere.

this is complete horseshit.
I made a few armors for this ridicules series and this is not how any of this works.

Unironically horse armor. Also any ability to actually design the weapons and armors you make. It baffles me that oblivions and morrowinds style steel weapons had to be modded into skyrim at all

At least dragonborn bonemold >>>> Morrowind bonemold

>Lots of fans complained about the quest marker system from Skyrim
>We heard you!
>Open world dropped; entire game is now a series of corridors

Realistically?

>Less. Just less of everything. Skills are consolidated into three categories: magic, sneak, and combat. Each level, you're given two points to invest in the three categories, but the skills become more expensive as you invest so you can't min/max
>Fewer spells. Fire/ice/lightning only. No illusion, no conjuration. There's a healing spell but health regenerates innately.
>More shit in the way on the maps. You have to follow the roads. Terrain blocks exploration.
>All quests are radiant. Even the main story quest.
>No NPCs

I think you're mistaken. Bethesda is developing TESVI, not Obsidian.

??????????????????????????
the worst thing from morrowind is cliff racers

Unironically add strategy/tactic elements. At least three companions.
