admittedly never got to actually beating this game normally. have ONLY beat this game like the any% way when i was a kid. (No dagger equipping/unequipping or out of bounds, but it still only took me about 15 minutes to beat it XD)
What you guys do for the sick and in need means the world to my wife and I. Really. Summer and Awesome GDQ have been a huge and welcome distraction at key points in the past decade of my life. Thank you to all the runners, organizers and sponsors who help make this a reality. Oh, and of course, the viewers who donate and SAVE LIVES!!! ❤
I managed to ruin an early casual playthrough of mine by using the "soultrap" glitch to increase my stats... I got speed so high that I started just clipping through walls unintentionally lol

"Morrowind runs are 90% about getting away with crimes" Hey, it's not a crime if you provoke them into hitting you first before you murder them, it's self-defense :)
The game was from a time with mostly 4:3 monitors still, they probably leave it at default settings? The less the game shows the faster it goes is my guess.
The basic answer is that it's all you need - everything you need to see is usually right in front of you, or if it isn't, it's still in FoV at default because strafing for the extra speed doesn't have you facing that far off to the side. And tbh you wouldn't see much else of note, other than random bits of landscape flying by for most of the run, so it doesn't make a huge difference there either. As for lag and rendering, modern PCs run Morrowind well enough that you don't need to worry about that, especially since there's a timer plugin that removes loads so that runners with different builds have an even playing field.
It goes back a few years. I don't remember the exact time, especially because forrest was figuring things out for a good while, but good people are good people, whatever handle they go by.
What a thumbnail
this is the best thumbnail ever oh my god
shoutout to mid run patching!
Thumbnail sounds about what is expected lol
as someone who doesnt know anything about morrowind speedruns, the thumbnail alone intrigued me enough to have a look afjsdkgnsdkng
There’s two years of my life compressed into three and a half minutes…
Two years? Those are rookie numbers!

A great run and I love how informative and easy to understand the commentary was. Thanks for all the effort that obviously went into this!
“We just killed the taxman” - *polite golf clapping*
This runner is so charismatic
Morrowind basically being Dune fan fiction makes a lot of sense
Wait Dune or Doom?
@@ARavingLobster Definitely Dune they mention Arrakis
@@ARavingLobster Dune. As in the book in which the movie with Chalamet and Zandaya is based on.
@@ARavingLobster Dune
@@ARavingLobster is there people living in a desert waiting for their messiah to appear in doom?

You know it's an elder scrolls game, when the glitchless and glitched gameplay are almost indistinguishable from each other.
Damn they really weren't kidding about that midgame patching
Wealth beyond measure, Outlander.
Crazy Crassius Curio got applause
These runs just had me smiling all throughout. It's so funny that it's worth patching the game midrun! Amazing run and commentary!
Shoutout Zebogo repping Sunn on the big stage
Hell yeah, let there be drone
ever breathe a speedrun?
13:19 CLIFF RACER SPOTTED
What an amazing thumbnail, so brave, so bold, so striking
I knew within 3 seconds that this run would be insanely refined. When the guys get stoked for a .5 second save on the first guard.
Knowing the lore of this game, this is all 100% accurate because the neravarine knows they are game code.
What a grand and intoxicating thumbnail!
That smile is the cherry on top
I fell asleep and missed this :0 thank you vod team!!!!!!
"Walls become a suggestion" - yup, that's Morrowind :D
hell yes, wish i had caught this one live, my favourite game of all time!!
Same, even to this day.
I love Morrowind speed runs, they're insane
Commenting right before watching the run: with a thumbnail like that, I know it's going to be fun!
My next quest needs me - up, up and away!
One of my favorite games ever. Maybe my favorite
Beautiful thumbnail
I came here from a tumblr post about the thumbnail
same here! holy fucking shit by the way lol
mid run patching WTF lol
this run is unbelievably good!!
Thumbnail looks promising.
My god it was so tense watching the insentive be met at the final nanosecond of the run.
Nice run!
Wow, it did not know about some of the glitches in this, and I've played a lot of morrowind.
28:16 I knew there had to be a reason that I've never been able to get into this game. GO HEELS and go to hell, Duke!

S tier thumbnail
Still the best Elder Scrolls game!!
"yep"
the tar heel hate in this game warms my Wolfpack heart
How fun! I’ve never seen a Morrowind run before, which feels weird because it’s a Bethesda game and they’re known for their glitches.
OoB, because walls are just a suggestion 😂
Neat
18:04 walls can’t be clipped thoguh if they’re not right angles?
The Hounds of Tindalous are confirmed speedrunners
This year's videos have crazy lag for the speedrunner. Not a huge deal, just looks weird when other years there has been no problems with that.
When does the thumbnail moment happen?

I'm so confused. How is he flying?

Played the crap out of Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim, and I never put together that Morrowind Jiub == Skyrim DLC Jiub 😮
Strange seeing this game without the neon genesis evangelion intro
Why everyone play with like 60FOV ? They don't like seeing where they are?
Could be lag reduction if it means rendering less stuff?
The game was from a time with mostly 4:3 monitors still, they probably leave it at default settings?
The less the game shows the faster it goes is my guess.
The basic answer is that it's all you need - everything you need to see is usually right in front of you, or if it isn't, it's still in FoV at default because strafing for the extra speed doesn't have you facing that far off to the side.

you can't change fov in the vanilla game
since when is albinoalbatross forrest?

People change their handles/names, idk
