The Elder Scrolls Megathread XV: A Song of Ice and Draugr - Games

Morrowind is more chance then the other games Altimor, its dice rolls, its practically a real time D&D. Making contact with someone does not a guarantee you hit them. There are mods that change that but make the game unbalanced.

Which is the best unarmed mod out there? I want to punch dragon gods to death on legendary, and I don't want it to take 45 hours.

Speaking of Morrowind, I found that if you get wedged in a roof (literally in it, where you can see through the geometry) and turn on a jump macro you can get Acrobatics 100 in half a Star Trek. I did it with the underside of a bridge.

But pretty much all TES games previous to Oblivion relied mostly on chance when it comes to combat.

Morrowind makes up for its RNG with its incredible physics No rooftop is inaccessible Sometimes I just phase through the ground when bunnyhopping EDIT: ahahah there's a spot in vivec where you can just jump inside building geometry, no glitching required

I'm not talking like 4 or 5 areas, I mean you can get stuck almost anywhere.

Imagine the poor suckers who bought Morrowind on the original Xbox

[QUOTE=Graventite;42120676]Imagine the poor suckers who bought Morrowind on the original Xbox[/QUOTE] I was 11 when it released on Xbox so I was no poor sucker because Morrowind is just pure awesome and was totally unique at that time.

[QUOTE=The golden;42120848]Why do the makers of some of the best mods have to always be absolute dicks? Just tipping on a bug I received (others had done the same as well) and he just shits in my face and blames my game even though several other people are reporting the same bug. Just the way he responds to peoples comments (even positive ones or simple questions) makes him look like a complete asshole.[/QUOTE] That's TES modding community for you. The last helpful modder was probably Lord_Devil/Quatloos, and she died of cancer. Literally. Years ago.

I'd be a helpful modder now me being a GOOD modder is a different subject entirely

I finally did it, after many deaths, reconfiguring options and controls, I finally get out of the starting dungeon in Daggerfall. Then the game wouldn't let me strafe and jump because apparently DF doesn't like when the cycles count is set to max in DOSBox then I got killed a lot from an archer who was spazzing out because apparently DF doesn't like when the cycles count is set to max in DOSBox Thank you based Bethesda for having Fast Travel

Oh god help I glitched inside world geometry but if I leave I'll get killed by guards or 3 cliff racers and I have no magicka

[QUOTE=Altimor;42124329]Oh god help I glitched inside world geometry but if I leave I'll get killed by guards or 3 cliff racers and I have no magicka[/QUOTE] Only solution I can think of is the Amulet of Slowfalling.

[QUOTE=Graventite;42120676]Imagine the poor suckers who bought Morrowind on the original Xbox[/QUOTE] I was one of those poor suckers. a 12 year old sucker.

This is the site that will rain fire upon you if you make a modesty mod.

Is there any way to kill Vivec & get the Wraithguard without doing the main quest in Morrowind

[QUOTE=Altimor;42125185]Is there any way to kill Vivec & get the Wraithguard without doing the main quest in Morrowind[/QUOTE] Kill Vivec, go to Yagrum, he'll ask you about the artifact and if you have a high enough reputation you can ask him to repair it for you. Though you'll need a fair bit of health to survive the ordeal. Then you could just fuck off with it, or resume the main quest form there.

It's a similar situation as the one with TVTropes - they're so obsessed with the fallacious goal of keeping everyone in a nice big happy family with no disagreements that they a) let some right shitlords in that in any organic social group would be cast out, and b) they suppress any criticism because it would 'disturb the peace. It's retarded. The nexus mod team should honestly read [url=http://www.plausiblydeniable.com/opinion/gsf.html]this[/url] and take it to heart. oop automerge

There's so much in Daggerfall, I can't even find a town twice on the map.

God damn DOS with its real mode instructions and its segment registers

[QUOTE=KorJax;42122602]What the fuck quatloos/lord_devil died of cancer? Where the hell have I been[/QUOTE] I remember being crushed when I read about it on planetelderscrolls. Now there's barely a whisper on the internet about it. I remember her posting a review of some crappy little house I made, like, 2 months before the article popped up. Effort was put into that review. It was like 3 paragraphs long. Shit, now we're lucky to have modders that'll write more than a paragraph of README text.

[QUOTE=Altimor;42125338]The temple is locked though.[/QUOTE] Unlock it Find a scroll of ekash's lock breaker (can find them in smuggler dungeons sometimes), use security if you're a good lockpicker and have a good lockpick, or just cast an alteration open lock spell on it.
