So I just reinstalled Morrowind and Oblivion, and I think I'm gonna finally beat Morrowind (i have only made it to the ashlander camp before)

My question here is, what mods should I get for these shits, and how much do you guys love setting your jump ability at like a billion so you can leap across the map

    This sounds like a pretty awesome idea. I haven't played morrowind in a long time. Is Bloodmoon or Tribunal any good?

    Well, a buddy of mine gave me the expansions when I introduced him to elder scrolls. He played oblivion and was like, "Oh man I wanna try the other games! so I gave him my copies of Arena, Dagger Fall, and Morrowind vanilla.

    He went out and found Bloodmoon and Tribunal with morrowind vanilla and later on gave them all to me saying morrowind sucks.

    Oh boy did we have words about that comment.

    I feel that Morrowind has a more interesting and exotic landscape, and could be done beautifully in the oblivion engine. The land of the imperials is just so damn ... white suburban.

    There's a mod that makes Vivec look like the original design with like boats going down the canals and stuff

    Vivec unleashed or something.

    Man, I love Morrowind a ton.

    That said fuck the large amount of stats and inability to fast travel. Trying to get anywhere in Morrowind was a hassle.

    I still have Oblivion + FCOM sitting on my machine, taunting me.

    I've already invested about 30 hours and only freed Kvatch as far as the main storyline goes. FCOM makes shit HUGE.

    I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
    My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
    And Disney World is nowhere in sight.

    And Tribunal is my favorite expansion to any game ever. The story is really pretty solid, and Mournhold has an an awesome atmosphere. Bloodmoon had werewolves and a town you got to build and while both excellent things that was it.

    It was pretty sweet though when your acrobatics got high enough in Oblivion because you could jump on water which made for really fast getaways from bad things without having to cast spells.

    Hence the "without having to cast spells" part. And if you're not playing a magic using character then it's extremely useful.

    I played morrowind ages ago and never really got into it, mainly because it took fucking ages to find anything or go anywhere. Is oblivion slightly more streamlined in that respect?

    in morrowind you have to really know where you are going to progress through the storyline with any semblance of speed

    once you get mark/recall and the mages guild it becomes a lot easier

    e: and there is that one addon with the propylon stone teleporter ruins

    e: also boots of blinding speed + max gamma + levitate 8-)

    It is very, very difficult to beat Daggerfall.

    It's much more about beating the bugs than anything to do with challenging game design though.
