  • Twenty years ago, on May 1st, 2002, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind was released by Bethesda Game Studios, and it changed gaming forever. I was a young lad at the time, and the game made a massive impression on me, completely changing my conception of what was possible in a game world. The feelings of freedom and possibility that I experienced in the early hours of Morrowind are still unmatched to this day. And beyond the groundbreaking content that shipped with the game, Morrowind brought modding into the mainstream, spurring the formation of an exceptionally talented and creative online community, thus ensuring the game would live on forever.
    Two decades later, I invite you join me on a relaxing whispered wander through some of the the rich and varied locales of Morrowind to celebrate this legendary game's 20th anniversary! If you've played Morrowind, I hope this video brings back fond memories. If this is your first time seeing the game, I hope it gives you a taste of what makes Morrowind so beloved and iconic, and perhaps convinces you to discover the magic for yourself!
    ASMR triggers include ear-to-ear whispering, incidental mouth sounds, and ambient game sounds like soft footsteps, crackling fire, gentle water, and the mournful calls of the siltstriders. I recommend listening with headphones for the best experience!

    ---------------------------------------------------
    Morrowind is an old game, but thanks to the hard work of a talented and dedicated modding community, you can enjoy it on modern PCs with updated graphics and gameplay! Here's a link to a list that includes the mods which are primarily responsible for the visuals in this video: pastebin.com/F...
    I install and manage them with Mod Organizer 2 (github.com/Mod..., which works great for Morrowind. Please note that MGE XE and LOOT must be configured to run through MO2. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO CAREFULLY READ EVERY MOD DESCRPTION FOR INSTALLATION AND COMPATIBILITY NOTES. Enjoy!

    WHAT IS ASMR?
    ---------------------------------------------------
    My videos are designed to trigger a relaxing feeling called ASMR (Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response). ASMR is a particular sensation that some people experience when they hear quiet sounds like whispering and soft speaking or watch certain actions like slow hand motions. ASMR is often described as a pleasant tingling on the head and neck, accompanied by a feeling of deep calm and mild euphoria. Many people watch ASMR videos to relax and manage anxiety, stress, or insomnia. To learn more about ASMR, check out asmruniversity....

    Saw this and instantly clicked. Can't believe its been this long. I remember when it came out how much time I spent in this game exploring, crafting spells, gathering and discovering as many artifacts and rare quests as I could. No other game in the world from it's décor to music to characters has left a bigger imprint on me. Thanks so much for keeping it alive!

    I don’t know if you remember, but I commented on an elder scrolls vid you did a while ago, it was the map video and I said how much I wanted to play morrowind and you encouraged me to do so and literally like 20 minutes later I had the og Xbox version ordered off Amazon from a used seller, and it slowly but surely became my favorite TES game and one of my favorite games of all time. So ya, thanks, I kind of feel like I owe it to you.

      It's a very special game, with a setting and story unlike any other. The graphics and gameplay are definitely dated by today's standards, but mods go a long way towards improving that. If you're willing to go in with patience and an open mind, I'm sure it'll eventually hook you. Also...CERTIFIED FIRST! 🥇

    Great to see this! My first experience with Elder Scrolls too, such and awesome world and story. Used the console codes to get me into all the guilds so I wouldn't miss any quest in the game. And the expansions were fun too. Everyone I know started with Oblivion or Skyrim and missed out on this because they thought the graphics were too dated.

    Here's an interesting fact about Skar and Ald'ruhn. House Redoran mages used a ritual during the Oblivion Crisis to literally reanimate the husk of Skar, which rose out of the ground and began to mow down the armies of Mehrunes Dagon. The city was destroyed both due to Skar and the invasion, but it's still really metal.

    Morrowind is the most unique out of the lastest TES games, Oblivion is more medieval and Skyrim is obviously viking inspired but Morrowind is just it's own thing, inspired by itself... It almost seems like an alien planet compared to the other games, in a good way

    I used to play this game 24/7 when I was a teenager. I first had the Xbox version, then when we got a better computer I got the PC version. I still have the same boxed copy on my shelf today that I got 14 or so years ago. Since the dialogue was all text, I used to mute the game and play while listening to edgy teeny bopper music.

      Hi! Thanks for sharing your opinion. I personally don't find whispering forced or annoying, and enjoy watching whispered ASMR. However, I also enjoy soft-spoken ASMR, which is why I do both. I have hundreds of soft-spoken videos on my channel, so perhaps you'd prefer those.
