Morrowind is 20 Years Old Today Options

What the topic title says!

Morrowind was released 20 years ago today in the US. I was a high school senior at the time, and didn't really have any way of playing it, but I did remember being impressed with the otherworldly quality of the screenshots and from flipping through the art book that a friend owned. The world just didn't look like any other gameworld I'd seen, and I appreciated that.

Didn't end up playing it until 2009, but I fell in love with it then. Morrowind was my introduction to The Elder Scrolls in general, and since then I've had fun with Skyrim and Oblivion as well. Morrowind still has a pretty lively community, probably thanks in part to the setting having a very distinct look and feel.

And, of course, it led me here! So kudos all around!

I never could stand Vivec either. Just reading the books about him left me thinking he was a vain, egotistical, narcisstic, bag of dicks. That's not even counting the whole betrayal and murder of Nerevar that I found out about later.

My characters have always killed him. Even January, who is essentially a paladin.

The first time I played, Vivec didn't really register that much with me. Like I got he was there, but I didn't see how important he was within the setting. Then I kind of absorbed the memes and chatter around him and thought he was a funny god.

Then I actually paid attention and yeah, he's a bad dude. Nearly all the terrible things that happened in Morrowind can be traced to him in some way.
