Morrowind, Who hates it Options

[Sunboom]

I haven't been playing MW that long, compared to most of you, so it certainly isn't so stale. However, my character is now level 27 and can beat most things easily, so the challenge isn't so great. I haven't started either of the extensions yet however (chicken!).

I can't see why one would want to give up MW just because of OB - unless one had played the game out.

However, the world certainly divides into two parts - those who love MW and those who can't understand why. One evening, we were driving to a local restaurant with the family, and my husband and I were talking about the sheer coolness of the silver longsword he'd just enchanted with soul trap (this was early days in the game) and the kids in the back groaned and made us promise not to mention 'that game' over dinner. Hmph!!!

Actually I know almost no people who 'can't understand why', as you said it. Only these who
-Don't understand the game
-Only played the game for 5 minutes
-People who played the game that much that they're sick of it - but they loved it before
and those three don't count, I think.
Only one friend of mine who can't be placed in one of these groups doesn't like the game, because of the AI and the fact that NPC's look like they're made of wood - they don't really live. But he's an old braggard that looks at the most strange aspects of games (for instance; he stands still, does nothing, and if nothing around him happens, he think the game sucks).

Who actually hates Morrowind

Well, I am still playing it, and will continue to play it, regardless of its flaws (constant CTDs can really make your F5 finger triggerhappy )... soooo, I'll have to go with the "No, I don't actually hate Morrowind"

I hate Morrowind. It's a terrible nation, filled with vile dark elves that enslave members of any race they find themselves forced to interact with, the xenophobic guar-lickers.

I think this is what the whole topic is about.

As much as i enjoy Morrowind i am inclined to agree, dark elves are kind of vile and vindictive.

True, even the Ashlanders despise other nations, and so-called civilised Dunmeri viciously hate outlanders and inslave many of them... however, let's not forget the fact that Empire came to morrowind and occupied their land in the first place... but, I don't hate people in general because of their race, religion or political affiliation (read: House membership)... I hate people as individuals, because most of them are IDIOTS, but every now and then I meet a decent Dunmer here & there... as for the land, I adore Ascadian Isles Region, although I'm a city-person. So, there you have it

Well if the hating relates to the in-game environment, not the game itself, isn't this proof that it rocks?

Because if you can have a strong feeling about it, then Bethesda have got something right. For me, it has been a world I have no regrets about entering. In fact, I don't play it as much as I'd like because hen I'm playing I just ignore everything else, and nothing ever gets done!
