The Elder Scrolls

Someone actually recommended this to me IRL. Main issues after watching the trailer is that, as people have said, it's selling point is being like a game I can already play. Another issue is Morrowind works because it largely takes itself seriously even with some humourous elements while the trailer for this game just seems to present itself as being goofy, whacky and self-aware.
It really does feel like these guys are insisting upon themselves too much.
Also I find myself skeptical that they just silently pushed a morrowind like game out of nowhere by themselves without a chirp anywhere until now.

Look at Ardenfall that game has been in the work for quite some time by comparison.
 
Did everyone lost their balls post 2020 or something.
Combination of permanently online trannies and marxists taking over every community because everyone else has to log out occasionally; organized efforts to take over shit; zoomers being indoctrinated into thinking this shit is normal and acceptable; and payment processors enforcing Mastercard's will.
 
BWAHAHAHA!
Bunch of slack jawed faggots.
Once again considering recreating the entirety of Morrowind as a tabletop module just so I can trick my friends into playing it.
Bring it up with the TTRPG thread, I'd say most users that post there would love to run something like it. Don't make it 5e or else I will say something that would get me banned.

I remember playing the demo a year or so ago, I think it has good potential. It seems to take itself seriously unlike that Lantern of the Laughless Saint thing, whose marketing seems to be "remember Morrowind?!" More like "ever wanted to play Morrowind but it's TOO OLD?! Well do I have the game for you!"
Apparently that LotLS game is made by the same people who published Angel Engine, which I only know because a Wendigoon video that played on autoplay and I was too lazy to change it out. Apparently it's some large AI generated+assisted FnaF clone or some shit, probably down to the writing as well. Small world.
I hope Ardenfall has enough legs to stand on in the end rather than trying to be yet another Morrowind clone attempt.

It looks more like King's Field than Morrowind, honestly.
Eh, I don't really think it looks like King's Field. Visually it looks like Queen's Domain which is an upcoming KF-esque title but I don't think the actual moment to moment gameplay screams KF. There is a bit of a KF mini renaissance going on. Verho curse of faces came out last year and I thought it was quite good, loads better than Lunacid. At some point I might make a thread once I get around to finishing KF2 and 3.

I really hate how this game looks and I have a high tolerance for unity crap. Is it a unity game? It looks like a unity game.

I might. I can't imagine I'm the only person interested in it, and there's probably somebody somewhere who's better equipped to solve the map problem.

That's all my normie friends can handle.

Would be reasonably easy to translate into most rulesets though, it's not like TES mechanics are a radical departure in any regard, most of the work is just renaming and conversions.
 
Actually, you can; all roads lead to Ravenloft because that's what I am running, and they will play the system you put in front of them because you aren't going to run anything else.
My brother in christ we're in our thirties, I'm lucky if I get them all in a room together.
 
The changes in Oblivion Remastered suck ass a lot.

How you can deal with "backgrounds" if fucking everyone gonna refer you as he or she.

It's just laziness. And people here praised that shit.
Even the fucking "qol" leveling changes are crap.
 
Following this mod I can recommend using Real Weapons Range to better time the weapon parrying. The game ranges are in silly units, but yeah. It's 2h Blunt Close (Warhammers) - 9 feet, and spears/staves - 10.8 feet. Everything else is 6 feet iirc. Someone made a patch of this mod to include the Tamriel Data and OAAB weapons too to have their ranges corrected.
In base game, vast majority of weapons uses 6 feet range. That means you aren't able to outrange enemy with longer weapons, besides spears and few other outliers. Virtually every weapon is also able to hit far beyond its actual physical reach. This mod changes all weapons in the game to match their visual range. There are few other mods adjusting weapon range, but as far as I could see, they all actually increased it, exacerbating the problem.

Real range
Vanilla compatible. Some slight edits in line with the original file, there's also a version for TR Data and OAAB Data. Introduces more realistic range to melee weapons.

Kill them
Kek. As soon as I read that they were normies I immediately thought the same.

I know the pain. Everyone I ever played with either had the schedule of a slave who knows damn well they aren't going to retire so they're just trying to live another month, or some antisocial fuck who couldn't handle more than a setup session.

Seeing this as the worst extent of intrusive out-of-lore editorial writing is like watching Colbert making fun of neocons in 2006; it’s really quaint seeing how restrained people were until they got mindraped by terminal twitter starting in 2013 or so.

Seriously though, I think when people say shit about “no politics in media” they just mean the 95% of the time when it’s shit like “MUTHSERA DONETH TRUMPAYN WANTS TO KILL ALL ARGONIANS BECAUSE HE’S A STUPID RACIST WEENIE,” i.e. lazy writing from sheltered middle class homos that doesn’t even make sense as a political allegory half the time. Fantasy stuff can be funny when it makes you reflect on real world shit but once you start throwing out the words “bigot” “racist” or even “nationalist” in a setting where I’m a blue guy trying to enslave some fucking soulless scale-skins you’re basically on par with Patrick Tomlinson.
