Durin I'm to lazt to travel to mournhold just to sell my junk (yeah i got the ring, but still). that and ive figured a way around the maximum sell price anyways.

Guitar Woman Yes, I'm sure everyone in the universe knows about Creeper.

What's more interesting is the abandoned Ebony mine near Balmora that the guy in the haunted mansion in Vivec will give you a Daedric weapon of your choice for.

Anyway, I never, ever visit Creeper, because not only do I sell really expensive shit that he won't buy anyway, but all the merchants in Mournhold will probably pay me better for whatever I've got.

I also really miss my god character and the mod that lets me burn entire cities down.

Durin Aye, it does start off really slow in tha beggining, but as you get your combat skills to say 50, you start to be able to hit things. Course, make sure you take care of the quest with those damn assassins before you go above level 20, or else they start to get really annoying, doing things like paralysing you. Free tip: In Ghorak manor in Caldera theres a creeper thatll buy all ur weapons and armor for face value, and he has a 5k gold limit. great source o money there.

Guitar Woman Oh hi I like Morrowind now

The game could have told me I wouldn't be able to do anything until level 20 instead of making me find that out the hard way, though

Nick Now twice the hate, half the hassle!

Chojin Hey Guitar Woman, finally you can give Morrowind a 78th try!

It's a mod for Oblivion that lets it read the Morrowind map files! All of Tamriel in Oblivion!

Bet you can't wait, huh!

Guitar Woman I uninstalled this and it gave me enough disc space to be able to download Psychonauts. This will probably be my only good memory of Morrowind!

timrpgland I last played Morrowind 2-3 years ago. I still enjoyed it...
Sep 29th, 2007 06:43 PM
Guitar Woman God, I hate the HULKING TURRET BOTS that you continually have to take down in this game. It shoots fireballs which makes it annoying like the goddamned monkeys, but it's also got a ridiculously high armor setting that means it takes around 9 shots of Armor Piercing pistol rounds to kill the motherfucker, and I ran out of those a while ago.

Cameras and turrets are also a problem, and although I'm getting used to scanning a room for the former the inconsistancy of their placement catches me off guard EVERY TIME. Turrets are fucking murderous because the instant I see one and go HOLY FUCK RUN it opens up and gets rid of half of my health, and takes almost as long to kill as the giant yellow bastards. I keep disabling security to prevent this, but it's not stopping the robots at all.


Anyone wanna play co-op :<
Sep 29th, 2007 05:46 PM
Guitar Woman I see Psi powers as a waste of modules. Hack and Research are by far the most useful skills so far, so I'm dumping all my stuff into that with occasional weapon and attribute upgrades.

I'm around the cargo bay area now, and at this point it's way more intense than it is scary.

Also the atmosphere is ruined by my fucking idiot brother and sister getting into whiney fisticuffs over Mario party.

I'm still having fun, though!

Emu SS2 got rly rly hard for me toward the end, but I think that's because I focused entirely on psionics.

It may also be because I'm playing on a laptop touchpad, idk
Sep 29th, 2007 05:11 PM
Guitar Woman So I leveled up my marksman skill and stole some poison shurikens from the cellar of a tavern and for the first third of a dungeon I found outside some little outpost town I was an UNSTOPPABLE NINJA. Despite the 30-second periods of standing still unpredictably to load some stuff that it didn't already make me wait for, I was starting to enjoy it.

However, I finally got my Underdogs bootleg of System Shock 2 working last night, and have since stopped giving a tin fuck about this game. So long, Morrowind!

Supafly345 I don't think bethesda had reached what I call "square-enix sales" until after morrowind.

I'm pretty sure that out of all the MAJOR game manufacturers out there, bethesda is the least money grubbing.
Sep 24th, 2007 06:07 PM
Guitar Woman I'm glad I'm not the only one who had problems running an Elder Scrolls game. I did think it kind of wierd that my PC can pull off Half Life 2 but is utterly incapable of running Morrowind smoothly at 640x480 in a window.

And yes, I've noticed all the above problems and retardedness too. It's like Bethesda knows that no matter how shitty their games are, people will buy them anyway and just fix all the problems they left in for them. Which is actually a brilliant money saver. Crafty bastards!
Sep 24th, 2007 06:05 PM
Supafly345 The story alone isn't enough to keep ANY game awesome. If it is, you should check to see if you have a vagina.

But it is a part of game history for setting new standards, despite being horrible to play now. And for someone who's never played it before, having a game that starts you out as helpless as a crippled baby isn't something to keep your interest today.


And OMG open cities? I want that mod. =(
Sep 24th, 2007 03:15 AM
Chojin Ninja, I have a lot of fond memories of morrowind myself, but I just re-bought the GOTY edition for PC and loaded it up with 'pretty pretty' mods and the game's still so terrible in its execution that it's silly. Combat is performed so awkwardly (especially in the beginning when you can't hit anything even though your sword is clearly WHOOSHING right through it) as to make it unbearable for modern gamers ;<

Bethesda is good at creating a game world, but it seems like their talents end there. Their engines are routinely enormous pieces of shit (especially Oblivion, which is the only game that makes my computer chug), filled to the brim with bugs, and their 3d models are so terrible that the community has to release patches to 'fix' them and every other graphical object in their games promptly after release. I can't even really stand to play oblivion without 'better bodies', 'open cities', 'natural weather', and 'oscuro's oblivion overhaul' on, at LEAST. And there's at least three times as many mods required for Morrowind to be playable.

Guitar Woman So I met this Dark Elf farmer who I thought looked like a dick, so I went into his house and stole a bunch of his shit and slept in his bed.

I left and stole a lantern from his stoop to light my way, and he apparently took so much offense to this he decided to chase me across 2 small mountain ranges and through a plantation town. I thought I could get away by jumping in the ocean, but he followed me and started UNDERWATER PUNCHING me.

I finally managed to kill him back on the shore, which I celebrated by stripping him naked and not disposing of his corpse. Then I went to rest under a giant tree and some fag killed me in my sleep.

Fathom Zero I never finished all of the Bloodmoon quests, not the trading company quests nor the one with the crashed flying machine and the guy that spoke gibberish.
Sep 24th, 2007 01:03 AM
Ninjavenom Fuck you haters, Morrowind is STILL godlike in its degree of supremacy over most other RPGs. The story alone is reason enough to keep playing it.
Sep 23rd, 2007 12:09 AM
Fathom Zero Well, I can definitely see why that would piss people off.

It's all based on numbers. You need a higher skill level in Marksman and Long and Short Blades. Go dungeon crawling or steal things, sell the stuff, and get some skill points from the fighter's guild.
Sep 22nd, 2007 11:10 PM
Guitar Woman I bought some Shuriken at a shop, and to my SHOCK AND AMAZEMENT they have about a 1 in 20 hit ratio like my sword attacks.
Sep 22nd, 2007 11:05 PM
Fathom Zero You really suck, then. They're really only there to annoy you. Invest in some fireballs or throwing knives.
Sep 22nd, 2007 10:18 PM
Guitar Woman It hit me until I ran out of health?

Unless those Pterodactyl things aren't what Cliff Racers are, in which case 4chan is a fucking liar.

Also I couldn't see what it was called because I was RUNNING FOR DEAR LIFE.
Sep 22nd, 2007 10:13 PM
Fathom Zero How'd you die from a Cliff Racer?

Also, it's different from Oblivion because your skills and magic and equipment snowball as you go and you get better as time goes on.
