Because Morrowind doesnโ€™t coddle you. No quest markers, dice roll combat, dialogue that makes you read, and a world that just throws you in and says โ€œfigure it out.โ€ It's a CRPG disguised as an open-world adventure, and most newer players come in expecting Skyrim with floaty jumps and instead get a D&D sim with cliff racers. If youโ€™re not ready to immerse and adapt, itโ€™ll eat you alive.

even morrowcucks agree that you have to play the game in a very specific inorganic way to "enjoy" it
looks like the vast bulk of humanity agreed with Todd that the Morrowind model was trash, it can go in the pile of forgotten malformed stepping stones along with Arena and Daggerfall

It's so fucking annoying hearing all the Morrowind people constantly saying "yeah dude you're supposed to suck at literally everything until you make a spell or enchant to be a god at everything" "you're supposed to walk unbearably slow for hours until you hack it with an enchant and can jump across the map".

I've modded every single system in the game so they're actually balanced and it's always hilarious watching my die hard OG Morrowind friends eventually admit that yes the game is better when all the systems are actually balanced linearly

Two much small text and unappealing combat. If you go with a "let's play and have fun" and don't have 'fun' in the first couple of minutes... hours... the logical leap is "woah, this game in shit". Worst if they try to play the game for the first time using mods despite not knowing nothing about mods nor the game.

Sucking at everything till you make a spell or enchant to be a god at everything. "End game god mode" is the stated "best part" of the game according to virtually everyone that praises Morrowind.

Melee attacks having a chance of missing when everything else seems to work fine is a game breaking feature and is utterly disgusting to tolerate. Casting can only fail if something is too high a level or you don't have enough mana. The disparity of effectiveness rubs your face in how irritating the *missed* sound is.
It doesn't matter that you can increase a skill to basically turn the feature off. It's fucking retarded. It's just an absolutely dumb as fuck mechanic. It's indefensibly stupid and annoying. It's almost universally hated. I have even seen Morrowindfags admit it's a silly stonewall for new players when everything else is so much more intuititve and welcoming.

No Morrowindfag can accept this. The world around them is totally inconceivable to them.
The melee combat ruins the game. Period. No arguments.

Nah there's plenty of games with brutal ass learning curves that are popular as well.

Morrowind is just old school boring and wears that on it's sleeve. If it wasn't for the Kirkbride weirdness it would receive about as much posting as Daggerfall (i.e. never talked about until people want to feel unique)

Genuine answer:
Slow burn game that builds up to an anti-climactic ending with the mysterious big-bad guy giving about 1.5 monologues before being emasculated, humiliated, and deposed. Without experiencing all of this within the first 10 minutes of the game the modern gamer is completely confused about the lack of instant gratification and loot boxes.

it's such a funny thing to say because enchanting stuff in Morrowind is less mandatory than in Oblivion because of how enemy scaling goes insane in in the latter.

the problem with melee dice rolls in morrowind isn't that they exist, it's that feedback to whiffs is unclear if you don't know that the only thing you get is the audio cue. So people unfamiliar with the game end up frustrated because unlike many other RPGs, both japanese and western, there's no visual cue to the missed attack, be it a text popup of the miss or an animation of the attack missing (unless the enemy has a shield and they block the attack, but that's technically you landing the hit, but the block roll succeeding in blocking that hit as far as I know)

No. It makes the combat clunky, unintuitive, and gay.
No arguments can be made against that and never have. It's a critical fundamental flaw that goes against everything else in the game.

Morrowindfags can only cope.
It's still one of the best games ever made though

It has a lot of obtuse and poorly designed elements that people wrap up in their own ego for having broken a slightly undercooked early 2000's RPG. The dark truth that Morrowind fans will never be able to accept is that Oblivion is far closer to matching what Bethesda wanted Elder Scrolls to be about then Morrowind ever was.

naw I like morrowind and I think feedback on melee is lackluster. I think a good solution would be a combat log sort of like Shadow Tower (pic related), where the damage you inflicted would appear like, in the corner of the screen. Put that above the enemy health bar and just have a "miss" show up when you whiff and the problem is solved.

I love TES games and I'll never defend any of their gameplay mechanics, it's all complete dogshit from TESI to TESV
To me the games have always been about playing around the shitty mechanics (and bugs) in order to enjoy the world. Modding helps but the games are all so inherently crippled there's only so much you can do.
People actually defending any TES at a gameplay level are braindamaged

You haven't made a legitimate argument against it. On the other hand my argument is that it shows a clear difference in skill between characters, a character with a longsword skill of 30 will have a completely different flow to fights than one with a skill of 100 when using longswords. On the other hand in future TES games all combat flows the same basically.
Gothic had a better implementation of a similar idea, where your weapon skill changes how you wield it. I don't know if any other game has done that.

NTA, but I dunno it feels kind of the same, except for the later TES games instead of just doing more damage to make the fights move quicker, in Morrowind you're more accurate with your swings, but still results in the same thing as fights just ending quicker. I think directional power attacks with unique effects do more to make combat more meaningful as you progress than just speeding up encounters, as your character is actually learning new techniques which can drastically effect how fights actually play out, like getting the ability to ragdoll people with a power attack. I think a fusion of both new combat techniques and dice rolls would make a very satisfying combat progression curve.

lots of reasons like people getting filtered by the combat system. but probably the biggest reason is that modern gamers are used to being able to "do it all" in terms of stat distribution while the morrowind early game really wants you to be a specialist. n00bs get to the character creator and are like "oh destruction magic, that sounds good. and blades, obviously. i haven't seen spears in another TES game, lets level that too" etc etc and then they start the game being total dogshit at everything, missing every attack while they spam click with no stamina and doing no damage when they do hit. then they get frustrated, tell themselves it's just one of those shitty old games that need you to grind ants for 20 hours at the beginning of the game, and then they drop it

the average zoomer would enjoy the game much more if they just made their build around one weapon type and maybe one magic school and focused those until the game feels natural enough to start experimenting

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Morrowind. The lore is extremely intricate, and without a solid grasp of Tamrielic history most of the quests will go over a typical player's head. There's also Vivec's enigmatic philosophy, which is deftly woven into the game's worldbuilding - his sermons draw heavily from esoteric mysticism, for instance. The true fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of the Nerevarine prophecy, to realize that it's not just a game - it says something profound about DESTINY. As a consequence, people who dislike Morrowind truly ARE idiots - of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the brilliance of Dagoth Ur's cryptic dialogue, which itself is a masterful reference to ancient Dunmeri prophecy. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Todd Howard's genius unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools... how I pity them. :D And yes, by the way, I DO have a Tribunal tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the enlightened scholars' eyes only - and even they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand.

None of the combat is good. The game gets better as you get stronger because you can end combat encounters faster and get back to what the game is actually good at, exploring and questing.
I don't even understand how the combat is so unpleasant considering its mechanically identical to Daggerfall, it just is. Totally cursed.

You can make any mage and have a piss easy time in Morrowind.
It's not a hard or intellectual game. I have seen literal non-verbal autistic retards play and enjoy it.
Morrowindfags are hated so much because they insist they are superior when they are merely autistic.

It lacks feedback. The only change in a successful swing is a sound and a puff of blood. No recoil, no animation, rarely staggers. It's just bad and lame.

Mowrrowindfags just can't handle how universally the combat is hated.
They have to remain superior, smart, and hardcore no matter what.

It's a real shame because I'm sure it has driven people away from actually trying it.

True. I had to quit my VR playthrough because the lack of feedback is even more horrible with motion controls and I was having trouble finding any up to date compatible mods to fix it because Morrowfags religiously believe in the purity of diceroll combat.

Daggerfall has better weighted hit chances
the MISS MISS MISS meme doesn't happen because if you're not hitting enemies and killing them, you're taking hits yourself and dying while in morrowind you can spend minutes trading MISSES
then there is the "hold to charge attack" mechanic which further slows the pace of the combat. Higher tiers of weapons don't have higher minimum damage but higher maximum one which means you have to hold "charge" them for longer to get the most out of them.

Oblivion had some subtle changes which made the levelling worse and the level scaling is a lot more pervasive in it. Its greatest flaw is that it forces you to engage with its mechanics.
Morrowind's mechanics are just as half baked and haphazardly put together but most people don't even bother engaging with them so they don't realize how badly designed it is.

there is only ONE feature in morrowind that hasn't been better done since and that's lack of fucking quest compass arrow, so all quest dungeon locations had to be correctly spelled out in journal and you gotta actually follow the written directions. Doing exploration like this is a lot of fun that you can't get with compass.
written text in dialogs in morrowind is better than in skyblivion, but those games can *show* you shit instead of writing about it, so it doesn't count
everything else including combat is better in later games

It's similar but when you hit max level the tokens stop accruing, making it so you have to build those tokens with bizarre skill usage or grinding that breaks the flow of the game completely.

It basically forces you to use everything you don't actually want to use if you are playing on a high difficulty and need to keep your base stats as tight as possible.
It's the WORST level up system in the franchise.

I only thing I really hold against daggerfall is the really bad implementation of the main quest and world design. the scale is impressive, but because of that scale is basically necessitates fast travel, and because you can fast travel to basically any location in the game exploration is a non-factor, not that's there is anything interesting to find.

It's actually kinda boring, the quests suck (Even if speedreading text is somehow more engaging than Skyrim cutscenes), combat is either unga bunga statcheck or using spells (and waiting hours after every single encounter), dungeons are somehow more repetitive than Oblivion's and in the end character builds don't matter when every build eventually converges into enchantment spam making you immortal and making the game boring as shit as a result

If you play this game without mods you deserve your shitty experience. Every single complaint in this game can be fixed with a simple mod, often with an MWSE mod which doesn't even require an actual mod installation and can be "uninstalled" (removed from the MWSE folder) at a moments notice without doing anything bad to your save file.

Combat especially can be fixed with a single mod that improves every single aspect of it immensely. And then preferably another mod to make the AI even better here are those two mods.
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/51034
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/49670

And here's a marksman overhaul for good measure
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/49657

And I'll throw in a total level system overhaul which completely removes that absolutely horrendous "making sure you spam skills enough to get +5 (x3) when leveling up". It's literally just a retarded chore that ruins the flow of the game every 10 skill levels.
So here is a complete overhaul that removes all that bullshit letting you simply.....play the game! At exactly the leveling pace you want as well, I personally level much slower than vanilla
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47452

With these four mods alone the game is automatically twice as good as vanilla. And they're all MWSE mods which means installing and uninstalling is as simple as dragging and dropping the single mod folder into the MWSE "mods" directory. It's seriously so much better than any random mod potentially breaking your game if you just install it and decide you don't want it.

yep, thats why I get the PvP mod linked here which adds dashing/active dodges for both players and NPCs and combine it with "No Fatigue Run Mod"

Here is the ultimate argument for why fatigue is retarded in Morrowind. "Stamina" is fine, "Fatigue" is not. Enemies have "Stamina" which can be drained until they run out and fall over or get stunned. The player has "Fatigue" which runs out when simply moving in combat and makes you collapse no matter when it's gone.

Enemies do not have "Fatigue" they do not use any Stamina when running after the player. This creates a blatant and absurd power imbalance between opponents and the player since the player can never out run them and the enemy will never stop running after you. Here is the fix for that so that you can finally be at the same power level as every enemy in the game

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47891

and then I highly recommend grabbing this other mod to make the combat much more thrilling, interactive and overall balanced than Vanilla. It also, as I mentioned earlier, works amazingly with the "no fatigue running mod" because it allows you to dash/dodge and lets enemies do it too but unlike with running the enemies actually use up Stamina when dashing to chase after you.

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/51034

If you are not playing this game without mods, you don't deserve to enjoy it. Everything I've linked can fix your game and make it 10x better in about 10 minutes of work. Download the mods, drag and drop in the MWSE folder, thats it. Thats all you gotta do.

look at these fucking RETARDS. Every single mod that actually changes the mechanics of the game for the better. Often doing crazy levels of scripting to make the game absurdly better like the PvP mod I've linked multiple times....these mods ALWAYS require MWSE.

You know what the top comment on 99% of MWSE mods is?

>"I REALLY WANT THIS FOR OPEN MW, PLEASE SIR WHY NO OPEN MW????"
and then the mod maker has to inevitably respond
>"FOR THE HUNDRETH TIME YOU FUCKING IDIOTS - OPEN MW REFUSES TO INCORPORATE MWSE FOR SOME REASON AND MY MODS WILL NEVER BE COMPATIBLE UNTIL THE FIX THAT SHIT OR SOMEONE FORKS IT AND ALLOWS LUA SCRIPTING"

When every MWSE mod has Open MW noobs begging for it to be made for Open MW you know what the correct choice is. And would you look at that? Here is a mod to make enemies chase you through doors, the only real benefit of Open MW now in MWSE versions too!

The hate on MWSE is so fucking stupid considering all the best mod makers say they won't use Open MW because it doesn't allow scripting of any kind. Why would you not want to use all the best mods and modders? There is literally no fucking reason to use Open MW unless you're doing multiplayer or you're so braindead you need someone else to set up everything for you

read this post I put above as well for my complete
>"fixes the biggest issues in the game, mod list"
especially look into the final one linked "MULE (Mort's Ultimate Leveling Experience".
I can't imagine playing the game with that god awful requirement to make sure you get +5 every level up. It's so much better when you just....don't have to deal with that absolute chore.

The one thing you will need to make sure to do if you install everything I linked is that you turn off the "increase enemy attacks/attack speed" option in the "Ultra AI" mod because it's not necessary with the PvP mod linked above it installed. The PvP mod does the same thing with more specificity and customizability (they're made by the same guy).

Also you obviously need MWSE installed and not Open MW. After that feel free to look at the options in the PvP mod to find your sweet spot. You can even turn the attack speed up to, basically 11/10, and make it so every sword fight in the game is an ultra intense swashbuckling extravaganza akin to the Pirates of Caribbean movies. Thats basically where it is by default, I lower the settings so it's a bit less intense but still dramatically more active and fun than vanilla combat.

modders seem to be just as confused why they don't allow it. I think I've heard it's because they're focused on multiplayer and if they allowed scripting it could fuck up any chance of the multiplayer working maybe?

I don't even know the modders themselves always sort of throw shade on the devs and make it clear that they believe they COULD allow MWSE scripting but they just wont.
Earlier today I was reading a comment about someone explaining exactly what would be required for someone to fork OpenMW and enable LUA scripting/MWSE in it. They said it would require a lot of intense C++ coding but they again seemed to say that the OpenMW devs could have done this themselves but refused to for some reason and they weren't very happy about it.

all the coolest mods are MWSE though. Like, Open MW has a lot of content mods but mods which physically edit the way the game is played can basically only be used on MWSE not OpenMW. Like this mod is part of a series in this modders "Magic Mechanics" series. It allows you to aim spells after you cast them by moving your mouse and having them follow it. This is just one mod of a 10+ part series of very unique and cool magic mechanics additions. Another one makes it telekinesis physically moves items to your person until they touch you and they get picked up instead of just automatically being put in your inventory when picking something up. It looks awesome and can only be done with MWSE

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47403?tab=description

I ask again - what could possibly be better about OpenMW that makes people use it over MWSE which allows dramatic game mechanic/game engine mods that can literally take Morrowind into the 21st century of gameplay. OpenMW doesn't let you edit game mechanics. It's completely gimped. Why the fuck is it a thing when the other option exclusively allows the greatest mods ever for the game??

I wish I could find the comment I saw earlier today from a modder explaining in detail why OpenMW needed massive work to work with MWSE.
It's not enough to just add scripting, they need to add MWSE. Basic scripting isn't the same as MWSE that has been perfected over the last 15 years and has hundreds if not thousands of mods already made for it which work beautifully.

I guess they could potentially make it possible to port MWSE into whatever new scripting language they add to OpenMW (maybe, possibly, who knows when). That would be the best case scenario I guess but it's still a longshot and nothing will change the fact that over a decade of mods have been created that do not work with OpenMW and those mods are the most impactful and gameplay altering mods available. They're the ones that actually make Morrowind into the greatest RPG of all time.

like this mod that makes lights into something similar to Skyrim, ones that float or stick to the wall. A simple mod.....yet it's still only possible with MWSE not OpenMW. Like why the fuck would you ever choose the gimped version of the game?? What is the benefit???

The fact that no one responded to a post in a Morrowind thread asking for favorite mods shows just how casual you guys are. I mean it's fucking absurd to see this many people care about an Elder Scrolls game but seemingly not enough to mod it. Like what the fuck?

You don't get to complain about Elder Scrolls games if your complaint is fixed with a single mod install. Even Bethesda doesn't think their games are good without mods so why the fuck do their customers?
You NEED mods for this game to be good, but with mods it's literally the best RPG ever. Probably the most extreme glow-up in history is vanilla Morrowind vs modded Morrowind

the silt strider home underneath the balmora strider. has plenty of storage and even a room with a bunch of tables so you can show off all your artifacts. only "downside" is that the mod comes with a ring that teleports you to the home, so you don't have to use mark to return to it as your home base but that shit is lame as hell so I just dump the ring and use mark/recall anyway.

many people dont actually like rpg's despite thinking they do because they grew up playing "rpg's" which were really just shitty action games with numbers tacked on.
And a lot of people dont have imagination and just take things as they are seen which is why they lose their fucking mind when the sword misses.

How can people enjoy this literal turd colored slop is incredible to me.
Nothing is appealing or fun. the art direction is bad, the setting is bad, the combat is bad, the mechanics are bad, the logic is bad, the story is bad, the worldbuilding is bad, the lore is bad, the fanbase is the most obnoxious of any Bethesda game.

I played through recently and the main quest is dogshit past a certain point. Right when it picks up momentum with the corpus/corpus cure it dives right back into back and forth fetch quests and favor garnering.

If the combat was engaging in any possible way it would probably be worth it for players to dive back in because the world they built is awesome compared to the rest of the series.

slow (beginning) movement speed, fast travel requires you to walk to the taxi, dice rolls, have to read. there's probably more.

I keep seeing your interpretation of what I said.
I fully realize your reading comprehension is holding you back.
I just want you to point out the post that confused you so much.

Hint: Stop bringing up abstracted. You are the only one talking about it. We all understand mechanics require abstraction. You can have both functional and non functional abstracted mechanics.

One third of Daggerfall's skills are functionally useless.
Slop eaters should not be so eager to announce it.
