Skyrim player : *does nothing*
Everyone : You're a hero !
Morrowind player : *saves Morrowind*
Dunmers : "you talk too much outlander"
lmao that's so accurate
After 5 minutes in Skyrim you're already a really important person... 40 hours in Morrowind, after completing all main quest and most factions, you're just an n'wah 😂
okay but in seriousness, maybe Balgruf cares about what you did for whiterun, but nobody reacts to you actually defeating Alduin. Just more "do you get to the cloud district very often?" and "the cold aint good for my crops, never is"
Thank you for braving red mountain and saving my beloved wife! Heres a common belt worth 10 gold that fortifies your illusion 5 points when used.
Oh, I almost forgot! Heres an iron flameskewer and a potion of spell absorbtion!
The biggest difference is that Skyrim is equivalent to Disney land and morrowind is Detroit, Michigan
This actually made me LOL.
nicely put. For ages I thought it was because I was fairly young when morrowind came out. When I replayed it years later, nope, it's just a better game in a few ways. Not every way, but a few. I tihnk it has better RPG elements but I digress.
Acrobatics automatically puts it up there for me ... Seriously, fast travel is cool and all but jumping 300 yards and landing is so much better...oh and mark and recall..and spellcrafting...mostly mechanics stuff
I know so many people who gave up on the main quest just because of the Dwemer puzzle cube.
oficial digits was over 90%
It took me like a year to.find it!
I gave up because it was boring compared to all the side quests
@@faithlessberserker5921 so you didn't just finish it once at least ?
I gave up in the Hortator part, had to visit uesp.
Finding the puzlebox at the entrance after running around for 2hrs made me feel like an idiot
glad to hear it wasn't just me. I never found it by myself and only after several months when I found "playthroughs" on youtube did I find that cursed thing
Morrowind Players: _Here, hold my beer!_
Skyrim Players: _Here, hold my warm milk baby bottle._
I'm just making a joke, don't get your Dwemer puzzle boxes in a twist 😂 But yeah, the simple things like that took Exploration in Morrowind to a complete other level most games could only dream of having today. Since the idea for most games is to reach more people to make it easier for them to play it, it's a luxury most developers nowdays can't afford.
I was just starting Morrowind and having a blast discovering all the new places I'd never experienced. And then I watched a meme video that told me exactly where the Dwemer box was and now I've ruined that part of the game for myself. Still haven't played up to that point. Hope I forget in the future.
Yeah same. Then you realize the guy who gave you the quest specifically tells you the puzzle box is not very far in. It definitely takes a shifting of gears to realize reading dialogue and journal entries for clues is essential when you don’t have quest markers.
That, but it was a great lesson for every other dungeon - look around more
Skyrim: you are dragonborn!
Morrowind: you n'wah!
Morrowind : "annoying outlander!"
@@UlvenTES cum nerevar
@@UlvenTES what nice a tourist
Very few NPC’s recognize you as Dragonborn in Skyrim.
Daggerfall: Halt! Halt! Ha-halt! Halt!
Lets be real, show of hands to those fallen heroes that thought you could make that lava jump thinking the box must be there, only to realize you didnt save.
Morrowind Main Quest on first play-through: "Which heckin' trader did I sell the Package for Caius Cosades to?"
Skyrim Main Quest on first play-through: "Guess I'm Dragonborn now."
Ahahah good one
My first playthrough of Morrowind saw my Khajiiti character sell the Boots of Blinding Speed early on. When I had obtained my own stronghold I decided to find the boots again for collection reasons. I went through 30 saves in 40 minutes to pinpoint the boots' approximate location, then I had to travel there. Weirdly, I had fun in doing all of this.
This game teaches people to enjoy this kind of stuff and I'm all for it lol.
Why did you sell it ? It is the main question.
@romk224 I guess you're young and don't know anything about the game. I had the same thing. Later when I was older around 24 years old. I played the game as it was intended. Ofcourse knew then about all the good stuff you needed to keep
Skyrim: Wow! You're a hero dragon slayer!!
Morrowind: Read these books and ensure you have a proper understanding of this millenia-old theological dispute, n'wah
morrowind was my first elder scrolls experience. the music is amazing, no map markers, leveling your weapon of choice on strider legs, assassins who disturb you just for both of you to miss for 5 minutes straight, running from cliff racers, and the enemies were so cool. went straight to skyrim from there. i really wish we could get a remake of morrowind.
Morrowind is something else clearly, a very unique experience
One word: Skywind
I remember one specific part of Morrowind had the journal (which was only organized by what order you got the quests in) basically told you something like "Go west from this village until you find a rock cairn then go south some unspecified number of steps until you find a hidden cave. If you don't go EXACTLY SOUTH you'll never find it."
Those were the good ol' days.
You're missing out if you don't try oblivion also
So you were introduced to Elder Scrolls through Morrowind and enjoyed it immensely, but didn't play Oblivion? Huh. Odd.
when i googled the location of this goddamn cube i had the same reaction as walter did
Back in my days I didn't have internet so I searched it with TES Construction Set 💀
Morrowind made you WORK for it
Morrowind is way more satisfying, it's sad that nowadays games are so simple :/
Daggerfall be like like: *You got soft hands brother, you got soft hands. Never worked a day in ur goddamned life! 85 hours every morherfucking day! I’m on my goddamn on my job.*
The biggest thing i miss in skyrim vs morrwind is trying to figure out where everything is. You can honestly never remember the name of any town in skyrim but in Morrwind you'll need to rember the name of town and the name of the person otherwise you'll never beat any quest!
wdym of course it's easy to remember the towns in skyrim, there's Whitehelm, Windrun, Markhunt and harry potter's school of magic.
@@DarkOmegaMK2 hahaha fair!!
@@MrHunterweimann then there's that city in the woods and that city in the swamp.
@@DarkOmegaMK2
The number of times I've thought, "Okay, I guess I'll just head on down to Riverrun."
That sounds a lot like you guys problem. I've never had problem remembering the towns or cities in Skyrim. Maybe you just aren't use to the more Nordic/Germanic names. Only problems I had was mixing up people and thinking that Delphine was Lydia.
One quest that speaks "it's literally in front of you" vibe (that prolly made it GOTY)
Truly one of the Dwemer boxes of all kalpa 🌹
Not gonna lie, was expecting to get called an n'wah...
No not today muthsera
Should've contained at least a tiny bit of S'wit 😩
Had no problem finding the cube… it was the handle to open the door! And the same thing happened trying to open the way to Dagoth Ur in the end! I was like “wait a minute! This has happened before” and suddenly 50-60 hours of memories flooded into mind!😢
Same with the Handle!
Oblivion: Enter hell for the 999th time so the cities can help you.
So glad I wasn't the only person who went on a whole-ass dungeon delve, while severely underleveled, looking for that box
This is spot on... I played it on Original Xbox in middle school ... Really used that fold out map it came with
As much as I love Morrowind, there are some quests that feel like hitting your head against a wall. This being is a fine example.
Like "you need to go in this cave, a bit south east of Tel Arhun blablabla" and you spend 12 hours looking for this fucking cave ahahah
Feels good to get through them, though. You earned progress instead of it being handed to you via scenario script.
That first quest from House Redoran, to kill the mudcrabs from the Guar herder. I swear the dialogue mentioned something along the lines of, "Just head west of town, just past the first hill," or whatever. But you end up needing to walk a solid several minutes past many hills.
There was another quest that involved a cave you had to find in between two towns.
And another where you have to find another cave to deliver some supplies? I think it was just near the Ghostfence? I can't recall. Maybe I should play through the game again.
I digress. I think Morrowind would have been much better if it came with a paper map in-game with all the little things marked out. Naming all the Foyada, for example, so you can actually see which one you're in at any time.
@@Grandreamthat would be horrible to have a map. Would ruin the point of having to use your eyes. Naming the Foyades only is a good idea though. Doesn't the in-game map have a paper version you can switch to? It tells you your region always, and it's better being blacked out with fog of war.
@@pharaohsmagician8329
Believe there might be a slight misunderstanding.
There is no such paper map in game. There is a general map that gets locations filled out by the little squares and then you have the "Local" map or whatever it was called that showed more specific things.
I'm not talking about removing the Fog of War. I'm talking about an actual, honest paper map, notating the different geographical locations. The Bitter Coast vs the Molag Amur vs the Ashlands, etc.. Main roads highlighted. Foyadas named. Various popular landmarks maybe? Not saying they should do like... Marking all the caves and whatnot.
The Imperial Legion and the Buoyant Armigers would have long since been able to set up a concrete map of the island, well over 400 years into the 3rd Era.
I didn't find this thing on my own first time. I remember spending ages on Dial-up connection trying to find the right gaming forum (those were still pretty new back then and find a reliable poster who knew the location) Even back then just finding the right help was a mini-quest of sorts.
I remember being a 9 yo kid trying to find out solutions for many quest on forums back in 2002 - 2003 when internet was not that huge
The Great Filter - Dwemer Box
I'll be honest, it almost filtered me from the game, back in the day 😂
And guy on the bridge the first boss who check that you are worthy.
The Dragonborn’s a mary sue. Literally handed everything and given god-like powers with no actual effort needed to obtain it.
The Hero of Kvatch can also be considered a mary sue. They’re thrown right into the adventure and given little time to breathe, and soon becomes a beloved, over-powered hero.
The Nerevarine has to earn everything through practice, hard work, and determination. Many Nerevarines before them had tried and failed, costing their lives, but this final one had the wisdom of those who came before as well as of those who they’re with now - not to mention their own skill and not divine-given birthrights - to overcome the greatest obstacles.
It always bugged me Oblivion...
You spend the whole game trying to stop Mehrunes Dagon from entering Tamriel...but in the end he gets in anyway, and the Dragonborn has to beat him...
Like...couldn't I have just delivered the amulet then kicked back? 🤔
@@cmdrreggit For much of the storyline, you either have the amulet but not Martin with you, or you have Martin with you but not the amulet. Both are needed to stop Mehrunes Dagon, so technically no.
That's before characters start giving you really shitty directions.
🤣🤣
Pretty much sums it up
Main Quest in Oblivion:
Oh wait, you're not even the main character. Nobody even remembers you. The Nerevarine was mentioned in Oblivion and Skyrim, the Last Dragonborn would be remembered for centuries for atleast terminating the civil war (regardless of which side they take) but you in Oblivion got the Grey cowl and got forgotten in history, then became a daedric prince.
True
Morrowind gets a lot easier once you figure out the trick to boots of blinding speed and stock up on scrolls of windwalker
True ahahah
Ring of Levitation together with Ring of Invisibility is the way... naturally, as soon as you can have items enchanted with Constant Effect.
Too be fair, you still have the magic ability to absorb dragon souls, even if you are not the one killing them.
The guy who's daughter got killed by a werewolf once finished off a dragon infront of me, did the kill animation where he climbs ontop of the dragon and stabbed him to death with his shitty dagger. Then went right back to whining to me about his dead daughter.
fluoride lamps is the most hightech you will see in morrowind
Dwemer technology ;)
Oblivion: Go save the actual main character.
That's something amazing with Oblivion, you are not the main character
Morrowind: Let me talk to some people in town, maybe they know the directions to this cave.
Skyrim: According to my GPS i have already found this area so ill just fast travel there.
😂😂
I have over 1000 hours in both games and still didn’t beat the main quest in either of them.
morrowind main quest is the best of the series
Skyrim main quest is okay, Morrowind main quest is very loooong but interesting, and you can beat Skyrim very quickly even the first time, in Morrowind it's like a whole journey, and the lore is so deep.. Like in Skyrim you became the chosen one to save the world within 5 minutes, in Morrowind you discover step by step that you are (probably, because many failed before) very important and you have to convince every one that you are the Nerevarine, so it's really different
@@UlvenTES Damn bro we get it you like Morrowind more lol
While I was desperate to find the cube. My mind created a false memory of an locked lvl 80 door where I could unlock and find the cube there. This door has never existed and I just mistook it for the other level 35 door. (I guess)
I had to look up a guide on my second playthrough to find the box. Yes, second playthrough, meaning I had already found it on my first playthrough, somehow forgot about it and then got stuck for 40 minutes on my second time
More like any quest in Morrowind.
True
You know how long it took me to find the freakin cube? Forever.
Every time. Maybe next playthrough I'll remember.
Why are your memes always so good ?
I don't think it's that good lol but thank you :)
They're the best
Take me a day to beat skyrims main quest morrowinds main quest is significantly longer like almost a week
True
Main quest in Skyrim: DELPHINE
That Dwemer puzzle cube PTSD
Morrowind main quest is:
- Repost to Caius
- Speak with (person)
- Go fetch (item) for (person)
- Report back to (person)
- Repeat
The worst part is Vivec City. My first time sent there was like a horrible feverish nightmare.
Going to the Cavern of the Incarnate for the first time made it all worth it
agreed !
The Nerevarine and Hortator quests were the worst.
@@jarekwrzosek2048 So true
I got lost in Vivec
I like that in Skyrim you can literally do what you want. No self proclaimed hero would obviously hide and cower in fear against the dragon, but if you wanna rp a worthless coward they gave you the option lol
This was exactly my first experience searching for the dwemer rubik's cube
Even when i tried to cheat with the solution online, i couldn't see the way to the upper floor.
I also made a map of the dwemer ruin in a notepad and thought about exploring the part that is locked behind a door, but i don't need it anymore now that i know how to play morrowind.
Great level design isn't it ?
That damn cube!
I still ignore how I was able to finish Morrowind without any help or guide.
Back when it was released I could finish it at all because the main quest was bugged 🙃
Skyrim: our battle will be legendary!
Morrowind: Dfq u unprepared?
😂😂 true
Morrowind is probably the best RPG ever made.
It is ;)
Planescape Torment and Baldur's Gate are close contenders.
I am finding these videos trying to explain Morrowind to a friend, and now I want to go back and play it. AGAIN.
@@ambds1975 my current run started on October 2021, and I haven't finished the mainquest yet. I never get bored of this game.
So related I'm in this very dungeon. Can't find Dwemer puzzle cube 😂
Do you think it's bad level design or made on purpose?
@@UlvenTES I don't know. In my opinion they should put the cube at the end of the dungeon. People expect to have to complete the dungeon to get the Dwemer puzzle cube.
i would have preferred waltervar trying to take on dagoth ur with the false sunder
I swear, everyone gets lost or forgets where the quest item is in the first dwemer dungeon. You always go way deeper than you have to, then backtrack a million times, and then it turns out it's just sitting one of the shelves that's super easy to miss. I love that and I hate it at the same time.
Damn cube.
I just did this in Morrowind and had this exact experience - it's the VERY FIRST QUEST.
No, the first quest is find cosades. and on my first play I failed it. I walked through balmora, never managed to find his house and continue wandering around. After couple month my schoolmate asked me 'howdo you like main quest in morro?' and i was like 'shit it was story and main line wtf r u kiddin'
This made me cackle.
😂 Happened to me too (the Dwemer Puzzle Box problem)!
I am still wondering if it's bad level design or if it was intended
I cannot wait for Skywind. By the time it comes out maybe ill have finished my first playthrough of Baldurs Gate 3
omg morrowind was spot on, plus also adding the heisenberg middle finger to the camera / puzzlebox
Ahahha
@@UlvenTES *it was all spot on. Subbed, love your content, blessings of the 9 divines upon you :)
I was an idiot playing Morrowwind. Each time I caught corprus I restarted, when it's actually part of the main quest. I've never finished the game, I really ought to try again.
Ahahah, try Morrowind again it's amazing
Skyrim: You are the chosen one.
Morrowind: Yoy gotta work to be chosen.
LMAO!! I can f**king relate with the Morrowind's main quest! Especially fetch that bloody cube, I was like "uh, I just raided the entire dungeon and this tinky box is just close to the entrance? what?"
Morrowind in a nutshell
Solve the puzzle box.
Such sights.....
Damn n'wah, how dare thou tingle with my nostalgia so much!??
The nostalgia of spending 2h looking for the Dwemer puzzle ? :p
My brother in Christ I literally had to nerf myself just to feel something fighting the lord of the 6th House of the Tribe Unmourned that is none other than the magnificient Dagoth Ur.
When at the start of the game they tell you extremely vague directions to an unnamed cave you end up in a completely different end game dungeon..
Which is infinitely better than the final area is like a casino in the night with all the markers and childish tests, and you already see it all from the start of the game while everyone else pretends they have no idea...
Именно поэтому я прошел скайрим и забыл, а моровинд всегда в моем сердечке
❤
pretty good but needs more cliffracers and stunlocking dwemer spiders
Two hours? Rookie numbers;). I was Level 38, Fighter's Guild/Temple/Imperial Cult/Thieve's Guild/ Mage's Guild leader and was working up a second weapon skill before I finally broke down and checked online;).
This is exactly why I could never get into Skyrim. You were made the hero right away for nothing, while in Morrowind you worked for it, and Oblivion you were helping out the main hero. It feels like an ascending scale of laziness with Bethesda, when considering Morrowind to Skyrim.
100% agree
I think Oblivion concept was pretty nice. You don't always need to be the legendary hero.
Morrowind was my nightmare, i was playing this game when i was kid and trying to play without knowing english. I don't know where to go, i don't know what to do then i decided to search the world and steal everything. Think about stealing something in morrowind (It was hard) also there was a bug like in the Oblivion, if some entity see while i am stealing, entity was counted as a witness. 😅
Also yes if a fricking deer saw me it also says to guards i was stealing
First quest in morrowind is to find a shirtless drug addict who tells you to fuck off and enjoy the island for a while.
Morrowind and American McGee's Alice In Wonderland are both great games in terms of mechanics and difficulty, and both take place in a mostly hellish and sometimes barren wasteland of a realm.
Oh, and both the endgame bosses are insanely hard gods that reside in a giant flesh borne structure of eldritch horror.
And do not tell me Madness Returns was a good game. And do not tell me it was hard. For starters. Immortality power. Or, in other words, the get invincible and damage boost power when my health gets low. If you use this and kill a bunch of enemies you will definitely get health pickups, no matter the difficulty, that's not a factor anymore. Because all it does is lessen health drops. But they still drop. It's just a matter of kiting and taking more damage when the cooldown is gone.
If that wasn't enough to convice you, the enemies aren't actually all that difficult, you can kill them with your regular weapons. Upgrades are a must. I did the Hobby Horse. It does a ton of damage. Breaks through shields. And I don't use fuck all else. The 2D platforming sections were not only atrocious, but boring too. And just . . . no. Whoever came up with that. It's padding. Mc'Gee's Alice had platforming, but it was a consistent 3D platforming.
Every potential wrong move could mean death. And you were never left alone by hostiles for too long. No matter how many you slaughtered. Yep. That's right. Never. Ending. Waves. Everywhere. No matter where you go. No matter what puzzle needs solving. Or platform to surmount. You will be stabbed. Stung. Burned. Shot. Electrocuted. Spike trapped. Crushed. Fall from deadly heights. And it will happen often. It will seemingly happen constantly. And yes, there's fucking fall damage in a 3D platformer. Except this isn't Bubsy 3D fall damage. This is consistent with the height you fall from. If it's survivable. You'll survive.
You thought your Madness Returns was difficult? You wear fucking diapers. Back in my day, at 7 years old, there was no butterfly dodging or insane asylum plot. You were a weak 10 year old caucasian girl on the verge of getting murdered every second in a hellish fantasy land out of the mind of a murderous matriarch, and it felt fucking invigorating. There was no period blood berserker power. No peppergun. No hobby horse. Hell, American McGee gave you one fucking weapon. A kitchen knife. Figure it out kid. Tell me that's not absolutely metal. I dare you. I fucking dare you.
this is perfect
Thank you ! :))
False, the real main quest of morrowind is bullying Fargoth.
I miss vanilla Skyrim.
Still not as bad as the lack of "hand-holding" in, say, Elden Ring, where pretty much the only way you actually advance the stage of any damn NPC-related quest is if you happen to randomly run into them wherever, without anyone giving you any damn idea where to go next.
No cop at all tho from that encounter. Basic common sense there for Bethesda. U can but in legendary it’s a shit ton of xp and it’ll always one shot u anyways.
Morrowind has more respect for your intelligence
So true
I started into TES with Skyrim but also played the other games because of the lore. Tbh Morrowind is more immersive in its worldbuilding
Modern games treat players like they are idiots. Get rid of the fucking quest gps, add propper maps and descriptions and all is fine again.
Exactly
Os gringo usando o meme da Nazaré
Morrowind trolls you in a positive/constructive way, being this video a good example, not like Skyrim where you find master chests with 30 gold in them.
Looting in Skyrim is very boring
Well they must be mentally ill as it takes 10 mins and there are only three guys to kill. The cube is lying on a shelf. It's a side quest and you get a key to the lower levels if you get the cube for the guy.
The only two things that Skyrim does better are graphics (obviously) and dual wielding. In everything else Morrowind is vastly superior.
Skyrim has a main quest? And people wasted their time on it?
I think ill stick with skyrim 👀
at least upgrade to oblivion
To be fair , the quests and such in morrowind were ass
Go here , kill /collect this
Half the directions are blatantly wrong and very few memorable places or characters
The only fun i had was the journey of slowly getting better and the such
Ever asked for directions?
The inaccuracy of directions only added to the realism!
I say exploration is the main meat of the game, questing is second, but Morrowind has some of the most noteworthy of quests in any elder scrolls game.
I can tell you haven't played much of the game when you haven't had many memorable moments, examples being going to Tel Fyr for the first time or doing any of the Telvanni quest, finding powerful artifacts in random tombs, the main quest, and much more.
I tried to find than puzzle few years.....
What is this editing technique called? Putting a TV show over a game?
If you never played Morrowind main quest you might not get it
