>>1297555 Time to update and give the new stuff a look.

GODD IS AT IT AGAIN PURCHASE THE REMASTERED NOW AND DON'T FORGET TO BUY SKYRIM AGAIN https://x.com/bethesda/status/1918015736011755762 https://archive.ph/qzb6w

You can't expect me to sit in front of a computer for 200+ hours. If it doesn't have controller support and I can't play it while relaxing on my recliner then it's meaningless.

>>1302949 You're in luck! Morrowind released on xbox.

>>1302960 And I played the heck out of it. Can I do the same with TR?

>>1302987 Yeah openmw has controller support. For the original you could probably hack something together with steam input.

>>1303006 i am replaying it now on my steam deck, the controls are servicable but not having select in menus sucks. you control a mouse cursor, you can't use the dpad to manipulate menus, there isn't for example a physical button you press to take all, and you'll have to manually drag the menus into good positions (thankfully they remember them). i would argue the controller support is worse than if you did some steam input mapping, because the joystick support apparently means you can't use the 'always run' or vice versa key. the only way to walk is to lightly tilt your joystick which is a pain in the ass for a game that punishes running fullspeed. it always sucks learning a console port for a game is much more intuitive, it makes sense but fuck man. terraria has the same problem. maybe there is a 'console mode' setting in the ini or something

Is there an alternate start mod that supports new TR release yet?

>>1310035 If I remember right openmw's gamepad controls are pretty much just copied from the xbox version which were also just sort of serviceable.

>>1310141 the xbox original version has one single menu and you cycle through them, selecting what you want https://youtu.be/nhP49PlN6HY?si=AD9QY6RAr8KbQ9qU&t=305 the controls are similar, buttons correlate to the console version, but the ui itself isn't meant for controllers in this same way

>>1310194 Ah thats right I forgot about that. It's been a long time since I've played the xbox version.

Is anyone here playing the latest TR release? How are you liking it so far? I just got to Narsis myself, spent a lot of time in Old Ebonheart.

>>1343340 Any good quests?

Is there no mods for OpenMW that adds bunch of repeatable radiant-ish style quests? I would like to play OpenMW like a sandbox game, akin to Call of Chernobyl for Stalker

>>1344304 The gamers, they yearn for Daggerfall. There's mtrQuasiRadiantQuests, but I'm not sure if it's OpenMW compatible. It's also very basic.

>>1344239 I'm doing the mages guild for now, there wasn't anything extra innovative, but the writing is nice and they take you to some interesting places like an insect hive. One of them also teleported me to Skyrim from PT, had to go all the way back to Narsis because the Recall spell isn't working properly in that quest.

>>1344448 Devilish needs is apparently sort of similar.

I sold most of my og xbox games, but I kept the goty edition of morrowind. Slightly sad my dvd drive doesn't work anymore, but luckily its a modded xbox so I can play it from hdd directly

Wowee, I can't fuggen wait.

I made a races rebalancer mod. https://files.catbox.moe/fg8if8.esp It's pretty simple stuff, basically a mixture of those two: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/21875 https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47782 > Made some races more receptive to hybrid classes. This was the main motivation behind the mod. > No powers or spells. Only passives with a couple of "toggleable" abilities. > While balancing considered multiple weapons/armor skills as if they were a single one, since realistically you are just going to use just one weapon type and one armor class > Hopefully balanced. The Altmer is the only one I'm iffy about (permanent 1 magicka regen)

>>1349927 Holy mother of AI.

>>1347036 These Xbox consoles are absolute fucking shit. I learned last year after not having played my consoles for probably about a decade. My drive doesn't work anymore either for the Xbox OG and my 360 is a loud piece of crap with the disc tray constantly getting stuck. I also falsely remembered the 360 being backward compatible with all Xbox Original games but this was never the case. So I can't collect some of those obscure Xbox games now like I was planning. And yes I was also planning to play them. I decided fuck it its just not worth all the hassle. Perhaps at some point I will mod them like you but maybe they won't even work anymore soon enough. Meanwhile my old as shit PS2's work fine. Even my damn N64 and PS1 works. Even my Gameboy handhelds work although the Pokemon G/S batteries long died so no way I can save. But at least it still works as I would hope despite the age. Microsoft is an absolute piece of garbage company. They need to just go third party already and stop with these shitty consoles. All these Microsoft games would be better ported on PC anyways. But on the topic of Morrowind, doesn't this edition have even longer load times then the original? This was actually one of the reasons to get an Xbox over PS2 back in the day since gaming on PC wasn't as easy to get into or as cheap like it is now. Plus Morrowind as a console exclusive was absolutely a big deal and a huge plus for Xbox. PS2 doesn't have anything that can match it.

The Skyblivion team released their first 15 minutes of gameplay https://yewtu.be/7ATiEK31Tqo >webm it It's 20 minutes, I could FFMPEG it but I would annihilate either the resolution of the bitrate in the process. It looks exactly how it sounds - Oblivion made in Skyrim. I forgot how much I disliked Skyrim's UI, hopefully people make replacement mods for this.

>>1170272 I'm actually in the middle of a TR playthrough. Playing as a Nord warrior. Spicing up the run by only using Nordic/Nord adjacent gear. I'm doing this because Skyrim: Home Of The Nords added so much interesting Nord shit to Morrowind.

>Finally get to Narsis after making a character back in May with the intention of going there >It's fucking huge >Am only doing Mage's guild stuff since I'm RPing a Wizard and getting more powerful in the guild will help with his research >Also using the plug in that comes with TR to make progression slower Narsis' mages guild is a lot of fun, the most memorable quest so far is working out what is going wrong with the guild guide's teleport spells, being the guinea pig and having your own recall spell backfire and throw you all the way to FUCKING CYRODIIL.

>>1714134 I'm sometimes curious about Skyblivion until I remember it'll have Skyrim gameplay. I'm not a believer of Skyrim being the worst thing ever, but the actual gameplay is probably one of the worst parts about it.

>>2021829 Yeah, I'll absolutely be the first to admit that Skyrim has the best atmosphere and music in the series, but the gameplay and quests are dumbed down to infuriating levels. It's barely an RPG anymore.

Ive never beaten skyrim. How long would it take to finish just the main quest?

>>2023503 If you were to B line it? Like, under 5 hours easily -- under 3 if you really tried. Skyrim is not a very long game traditionally speaking, it's the shortest mainline TES MQ. I've seen several sources say 15-35 hours but that's not remotely true, they're probably factoring in all the optional and faction quests. The MQ is also terrible, it basically has two stories going on at the same time -- the return of dragons and Skyrim's civil war -- but it never commits to the former and it's not political enough for the latter to be interesting. If you play Skyrim it's hard to remember there even is a civil war happening, the dragons overtake everything.

>>2023591 The main story of Skyrim absolutely fucking sucks. Daggerfall has a more compelling main story than it does.

The final boss of the Narsis Mages Guild is just... holy shit. Even the worst expansion bosses aren't a patch on this, I'm 90% sure the damaging floor pit outside his arena is there purely for characters who don't have the right gear or spells to bypass his bullshit. Cool questline all the same. Now to go on a relaxing cruise on my ship and place the soulgem containing this cheap asshole on my trophy wall.

>>2024495 So it turns out he's been nerfed, and I'm just playing an outdated version. In my game magic was worthless because he had CE reflect. He's had this removed because he was already essentially indestructible. More recent downloads should give people a fighting chance if they're magic only.

>>2023591 It's funny that one of the better parts of the main quest is a detour because Delphine is retarded enough to think the Thalmor somehow summoned the dragons when you literally see Alduin bringing dragons back. The main quest really is retarded.

>>2024546 Even if your spells do work on the pre-patch version, his HP regen is so crazy it outspeeds the actual damage.
