If one thing from Morrowind is put back in...

Post » Mon Jul 12, 2010 9:08 am

even more so because there hasn't been world of cliff racers...maybe they got nuked too. One can hope...

No need to have nuked them, they were gone during the Oblivion Crisis. Jiub (the first character you see in Morrowind, on the boat) killed every last one of them and was deemed a Saint. He died during the Oblivion Crisis defending the people of Morrowind.

Levitation and Teleport should make definite comeback. Making your Character have the ability to travel faster was part of the leveling up process and you really appreciated the freedom and power this gave you.
OMFG. Really? Really man? Seriously? Levitation and Teleport? Of all the cool things in previous TES. Levitation and Teleport? Really? For real? Levitation and Teleport? That is what you want? For levitation and teleport over everything else? Levitation and Teleport?


GET OVER IT

See how that works?

Enchantment was never removed, but if you mean the skill then you're in luck!

The enchantment system was pretty nerfed in Oblivion compared to Morrowind, you could have low level restore health as constant effect and even summons. To be fair Oblivion fixed that you could enchant all clothing and all weapons the same, but overall it was a serious nerf.

There were so many great things in Morrowind that were abandoned or drastically changed in Oblivion. I can't possible narrow it down to just one thing. I would love to see Skyrim include a lot of things that made Morrowind such a great game.


Freedom-

Oblivion seemed like a step backwards in terms of freedom. Morrowind had more weapon types, more factions to join, and more spells which gave you more freedom to play the game how you wanted. I want to explore the world in all 3 dimensions with levitation/jump/slowfall spells. I know these were probably removed because of the "closed" cities inside their own interior cells. Hopefully they can make a game world that supports levitation and movement skills. Teleportation spells like mark/recall and the intervention spells were really cool, but I guess they aren't as useful with the fast travel system. I also want more freedom with the enchanting and spell making systems. Sadly it seems that the spell making system has been confirmed to be even more limited.


Style-

Morrowind had a unique style that drew me into the game. The unique, exotic, and sometimes almost alien look of the architecture, clothing, armor, weapons, etc. made it standout for me out of all the other fantasy games I have ever played. The alchemy ingredients and foods were all weird made up things instead of apples, carrots, and oranges. The animals like Guars, Netches, and Nix-Hounds were much more interesting than Sheep, Deer, and Wolves. Oblivion just seemed so generic and uncreative compared to Morrowind.


No compass-

The compass markers in Oblivion were a horrible idea and took away the mystery and fun of exploring. In Morrowind there were many hard to find caves that felt more rewarding to discover. With the compass system these kinds of hidden places are completely pointless. I often found myself completely ignoring the landscape around me because I was focused on the indicator on my compass of a nearby "point of interest".


Placed loot-

I really hope placed loot makes a comeback. The random leveled loot in Oblivion discouraged you to explore dungeons at low level. It also made all dungeons feel more generic because you knew that the same item could potentially be found anywhere, instead of like Morrowind where you knew that the items can only be found in certain specific areas.


A good story-

This is just a personal thing, but I thought the story of Morrowind was much more interesting and engaging than the story in Oblivion.



Now I'm getting depressed... I think I will go play some Morrowind.

OMFG. Really? Really man? Seriously? Spears? Of all the cool things in previous TES. Spears? Really? For real? Spears? That is what you want? For spears over everything else? Spears?

my favorite weapon. you don't like spears then good for you I posted my opinion. Levitation will certainly be in anyway becasue they have open cities and if not it can be moded in fairly easily like they did in Oblivion so its not a big deal.
And its called fast travel teleport spells are pointless now.
I would rather see a spears make a return.

All I want back, is that jump spell that you get at the beginning of the game. Unfortunately, I did not have the pleasure of playing Morrowind before this year, however finding that spell/scroll was just golden to me.

The ability to piss off the NPC's so much that they will either attack you .. or just tell you to 'screw off' if you try to talk to them again.. That is something I missed in Oblivion.

yes. I forgot about this. Taunting was an awesome feature. It actually made speechcraft useful to level up.

It seems that maybe the old armor system is back. I really hope it is. And levitation.

Few types of enemies turning to dust upon death. This happened to the Dremora if I remember right, and I think it should happen to vampires. You shouldn't just loot the dust directly from their corpse like in Ob.

I have never played Morrowind. But from what everyones already says, I would love to see new transport systems, rather than fast travel.

If I could choose one thing from either of the last games to go in Skyrim, it would be classes.

I weep at the loss.

Not be threated as a moron!

If i do jerkind of things i want it to have consequences.

I don t want to be treated like a tard as we where in Oblivion, and as it seems we will be threated in skirym, even if in Skyrim it will only be MQ wise it seems.

If i kill a quest dealer or receiver i want not to be able to complete the quest,
If i do not do the quest in due time so i fail,
If i betray a guild i want to sufer the consequences
If i screw some part of the main quest then maybe there will be another way, maybe not.
I dont want compass tard stuff, i want to be able to disable it.
And so on,
i want challenge ! And not only hack and slash challenge.
