One of my favourite early Morrowind moments was always stumbling into Ghostgate as a low level character, find racks and racks of glass equipment, camp behind the door and try DESPERATELY, normally involving tons of quick saves/quick loads, to steal equipment without being caught. AWWW YEAH, feels good.

But isn't using quick saves and quick loads cheating to bypass the theft system? Burn the witch!

 

[vall03]

wow! I thought Oblivion was highly regarded here, didn't know people hated it instead. Oh well, the level-scaling never bother me to be honest, to each his own I guess...

Hell yeah. I would cast mark before, then cast recall to teleport away and sell that shit to Creeper the Scamp for full price.

It's just my perspective. Plenty of people here love Oblivion.

 

[CornBurrito]

I would say Skyrim is up there for being an amazing game but yeah both Skyrim and Oblivion can't hold a candle to Morrowind. Vvardenfell is an amazing place to get lost in. And like you said no level scaling makes the game seem more rewarding for exploring dungeons.

Assuming this isn't hyperbole, I'm now very tempted to buy Morrowind. But I can't get around the fact that it is 10 dollars.

So much fun. So much fun... This is very tempting to pick up now, just for the memories.

I don't think so. Skyrim is fantastic and Oblivion is good but the landscape of Vvardenfall was so much fun to explore. It does look a little dated but mods will get around that, but the areas were so unique to me my first time exploring them it was fantastic. Even without my nostalgia glasses on I say its a better game then Skyrim.

Edit: Damn doublepost...

My HDD died.

Would all my saves be backed up on Steam by any chance?

Also, downloading all my games at 500kb/s got old, fast.

Only games that have Steam Cloud will be.

The new Steam update is out. I'm not sure how the Workshop works though.

Oblivion is vastly improved with the OOO mod alone.

Vanilla, it was probably great for beginners but quickly disappointing if you played Morrowind. With light modding, it's pretty great.

What is the OOO mod?

 

[InertiaXr]

Is Morrowind on Steam completely moddable?

Oscuros Oblivion Overhaul

Its a complete overhaul of the game. there is a link to it in this thread

 

[Baha]

Should be. Oblivion, Fallout 3, etc have supported mods when I played them on steam.

 

[Joe Molotov]

Looks like they're not going to put the Gotcha Money Imposters DLC on the main page. Good, now we don't have to look at 20 entries for XP Boosts and Premium Cards.

It is the best ES game ever.

Also Oblivion has far better quests than Skyrim, so much so that it's quite embarrassing for Bethesda. Everything else may be better in Skyrim, I don't know, but that part alone makes Oblivion more fun to play to me (since they both have egregious amounts of level and loot scaling)

 

[BoosterDuck]

Want @_@

 

[Dice]

Modding Oblivion is such a pain in the ass. I swear it took like 20 hours to get it all to work and all I got in the end was a really bland Skyrim.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Steam Workshop is pretty cool. Too bad only 1 of my 3 Skyrim mods work.

 

[Sarcasm]

I can buy MW for 7 bucks with coupon.

Or I can get 10 off Skyrim.

Though I think still too much $$ what to do.

 

[catabarez]

Does anyone know where I can find the files for the Morrowind Overhaul mod? Some of the files were hosted only on Megaupload on the website.

There's multiupload links there so plenty of options.

There is an ad then multiple links below it.

Really? That's odd

Thanks very much guys!

 

[confused]

Looks like the Euorgamer50 code no longer works on THQ's website. I knew I should've jumped on Space Marine last night. Fucking sleep always cost me good deals.

 

[Seagoon]

If anyone wants a 25% off Bethesda coupon contact me on Steam, id is goonbridge

Morrowind is the best because you can actually explore and discover things, while Oblivion is full of leveled item lists and procedurally generated dungeons. Also, there are still new Morrowind mods coming out to this day. There's plenty of stuff you can do to make the game look and run great, but mods only patch over Oblivion's flaws and can't fix its core issues. I've still put a lot of hours into both games, but Oblivion was more fun to break than actually play.

 

[Sarcasm]

How big is morrowind as in file space? Also should run better than oblivion right? I have a 25% coupon which makes it 7 bucks.

 

[Bluth54]

It shows just over 1 GB when I go to install it. And yes it will run better then Oblivion.

Is it wrong that this bothers me

Can a man get some consistency?!

That kind of shit pisses me off, too. If I take the effort to collect a full series of games, at least have them list the same and in fucking chronological order (Looking at you POP and Tomb Raider.)

Edit : Decided to bite on Space Marine for 10 euro's anyway. Should be worth about that for a playthrough, right ? Also, i won't have any of the above because it's my only warhammer title.

 

[Fare Godmace]

Does anyone else see Dungeon Defenders as a free game in the Steam frontpage? Once you go to the game's page it still costs 12€, but I've updated the frontpage five times and it stills says that is free ("Gratuito" is free in Spanish):

I also got Space Marine thanks to a trade. Is any of the DLC worth it?

Same here in Holland.

Nothing wrong with being bothered by that in my opinion, I'd share the same sentiment.
Could've also just dropped the TM and R on the titles, we can only wish.

same in US... Says free but follow link its 14.99

might be a free weekend trial or something.

 

[CornBurrito]

It always seems like open world RPGS give me framerate troubles.

One of these days I -will- buy a powerhouse PC.

 

[Lumine]

Welp, I just caved and bought Skyrim. Anything I should know before I start? Any mandatory mods?

[Sarcasm]

Well steam is not letting me buy Morrowind. Which means I need to contact support and wait til the sale is over for a reponse.

Also need to contact my bank, but it is hard since different country. (Its USA)

 

[crimsonheadGCN]

Freebird Games were added, so To the Moon should be coming: http://freebirdgames.com/

 

[CornBurrito]

What are the general fixes for screen tearing? I seem to get it in games even with Vsync on.

I'm using an ATI card if that information is somehow useful.

This is amazing news! Just finished To the Moon the other day and it truly deserves to be on Steam to reach a wider audience.

Drop settings until you can keep a locked framerate that's equal to your refresh rate. If you still get screen tearing then it's time to start looking into a new GPU.

I used their site when trying to optimize Deus EX: HR and I have to say, it's surprisingly competent. I'll be starting Skyrim one of these coming days, and will definitely be using this as my starting guide.
