Working on it.

This is how I imagine things would go at Whiskey Media during an extended power outage:

[WickedCobra03]

argh. I cannot stream even in like 360p from school. :\

Greg godbless, I love you for doing this and I will try and get home as fast as possible to see some dragon stabbing and mushroom picking!

 

[-KRS-]

And the power goes out.

For some reason your avatar takes ages to load compared to everyone elses :S

Power outage! Back momentarily.

Watching Dave play Morrowind on GB stream last night was awkward. I reinstalled Morrowind last month with some HD re-texture mods(Morrowind 2011 I think it is called?), and whatever mods he was running were completely behind the modern curve.

But even disregarding the visual fidelity, the score Greg gave is still quite justified. Even patched and modded, the game has lots of issues. Still very easy to get lost into the world and atmosphere, but despite many of the things I feel it does better than Oblivion(factions, and sheer world variety) it equally does a lot worse(clunky inventory/combat dynamic). At the time of Greg's Morrowind review in 2002 the game was in far worse condition. Hell it took until the official expansions for enemy health bars and a proper quest log to be patched in.

<3 giant bomb crew.

loving the stream!! it will return

 

[LiK]

Stream is back!

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

Back online

 

[MultiCore]

This guy is infuriating to watch play.

Seriously, I'd rather hand my 5 year old boy a controller and watch him for 12 hours.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Sound is louder too. Yay!

 

[Danielsan]

Fuck, this game looks too good.

Is the Morrowind play archived somewhere? And Morrowind 2011 was only released for a short time before being pulled, don't think it ever was rereleased.

And I know the game still had issues, I just have rose tinted glasses due to it being my favorite PC game of all time and my second most played behind WoW.

Start of the day - "I am not going to by any new games till I clear out my back log"

*tunes in to Giant Bomb Skyrim stream"

God damn it! This game looks fun.

 

[Augemitbutter]

this scared the shit out of me.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

HOLY SHIT WHAT KIND OF DEMON WAS THAT>>?>?>>

 

[jediyoshi]

INCEPTION

 

[-Mikey-]

WTF!! I thought it was the RAPTURE! D:

 

[Papercuts]

I just turned it on for a second and the SOUND FLIPPED OUT WHAT THE FUUUUUCK

 

[K.Sabot]

I could hear someone in the background

"THAT WAS TERRIFYING"

 

[Danielsan]

Echo echo echo...

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

INCEPTION

hahahahhahahahahaha my thoughts exactly

 

[Tomat]

I burst out laughing at that first bandit.

 

[f0rk]

I could hear someone in the background

"THAT WAS TERRIFYING"

Sounded like Rorie lol

Vinny messing around with the soundboard backfired

 

[hyduK]

True story: Greg Kasavin gave Morrowind an 8.7/10. That's the original 8.8 (but even lower).

Yeah, but that was back when 8.7 was actually a 'great' score.

 

[Ghost Dad the Whip]

that was the sound of a million QA testers paying the 200g toll to a bandit

 

[Dark Stalkers]

It'd be funny if he backed off a cliff.

God I feel stupid wasting my time scrolling through this entire thread hoping someone would have the common sense to post a link, as is expected in every other thread.

Should have just gone to the damn website.

http://www.giantbomb.com/chat/

There's the link, since I'm apparently the only one in 6 f'ing pages who understands the basic concept of copy-pasting a link.

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

noooo not again

Power just went down again. It's crazy, it only goes down in like two rooms. So I'm fine out here! Back in a bit.

well hopefully they can get it fixed asap.

 

[HarryDemeanor]

Another power outage.

 

[Ghost Dad the Whip]

looks like you linking to the stream pushed it past it's capacity... way to go

 

[Tomat]

It's the fucking front page of GiantBomb. Slow your roll.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Just when it was getting good. Ugh, another power outage?

BESERKERS RAGE SHUT OFF THE POWER.

The irony doesn't escape me. Thanks.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Did the beserker rage saved him? We will never know. Wait, the stream is back again!! Bandit Chief is on a killing spree.

 

[Vire]

Back!

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

[LiK]

FATALITY

 

[zerokoolpsx]

Those kill animations are so good.

 

[Danielsan]

Dark Souls shout outs. Man I wish Greg would join Giant Bomb. One of the best dudes of the industry.

 

[Zeal]

Also starting a 360 version playthrough marathon in 720p right now.

lol the Bethesduuuh ninjas asked that I don't stream until 12:01. Something to hide, maybe? Whatever, then.
