GOTY forever btw @morrowind-official - Tumblr Blog

I think a lot about how in Morrowind you can sometimes convince people who would otherwise attack you on sight to hear you out and have an actual conversation with you by stripping naked before you talk to them. I understand its a semi-unintended consequence of the nudity lines having higher priority than they should, but its really funny to imagine that these murdering assassins are just so flabbergasted by the chosen hero of prophecy turning up naked and trying to negotiate that it just stunlocks their brains into forgetting they had to kill you.

Not trying to victim blame or anything but you’d think with all the times necromancers have tried/succeeded in raising undead armies the people of Tamriel would’ve stopped burying their dead fully armed and equipped for battle.

Like, I know your great grandpa’s sword was A Part Of Him and all but maybe you could bury SuperDeathblade somewhere not right next to SuperDeathbladeMan. Just in case.

oh, what, so he can get his ass kicked when he inevitably gets raised from the dead?? you want to make great grandpa into a loser? a chump?? if his corpse is going to be puppeteered into battle by a sick and twisted sorcerer then by the nine he is going to do it well

was it stupid to install linux on my laptop this late at night instead of waiting for tomorrow? probably. but has it worked as far i can tell at this point? yes, actually. with much less difficulty than i was worried about.

Here’s 200 drakes. Go get yourself a decent weapon. Or armor. Or a spell. And second thing… you need a cover identity. Around here, ‘freelance adventurer’ is a common profession. Sign on with the Fighters Guild, or Mages Guild, or Imperial cult, or Imperial legion, advance in the ranks, gain skill and experience. Or go out on your own, look for freelance work, or trouble. Then, when you’re ready, come back, and I’ll have orders for you.

"Skyrim combat sucks" "Oblivion is worse!" "Morrowind is worst combat"

Friends. Enemies. Darlings. All elder scrolls games are bad. They are bad games. You do not play them for combat, you play them to make a fucked up character and imagine if the writing was better. Do not concern yourself with swinging a sword.

The Elder Scrolls is a vehicle for fanfiction first, source of inane bitching with friends second, and video game franchise as a distant third.
