I just looked and Neverwinter Nights 1 and Morrowind were both released the same year: 2002. TBH, I think NWN looks better. The animations are certainly vastly superior.
That's good to hear on the animations for NWN. I never played NWN or MW but have seen enough MW vids to be unimpressed with the animations (and graphics).

Acadian: It really does amaze me that Bioware could do such good animations for a game where you actually see so very little of the characters. Usually you are zoomed way out so you don't really notice many details. But Morrowind is all about being up close and in your face, and Bethesda failed so utterly at making characters move in any way whatsoever.

Jan had an enlarge person spell on her, making her giant sized. Turns out the penalties for using it really outweigh the advantages. But it looked neat. The bear is an NPC, a spirit bear-god you can recruit into your team.

Lopov: You have a good memory, that was Y-something's lair
Acadian: Those old 2d games certainly gave us a lot more variety of enemies than the more modern 3d ones, where it is more work to create models and textures for creatures.
There's Jan, hanging out in the badlands in her steel-nipple armor and chillin' with a pop. And she meets Robbie the Robot! I noticed the increased gold/red in her hair as wells as what seems to be a 'poutier' look to her.
Nice idea giving Jan's weapons a shock effect - she is the Stormcrow after all. I believe I see some strong Oblivion influence in some of the mods you're using - the giant ponytail and Jan's pose in the final shot. Chatting with Abe! Don't feel badly; Abe's demise happened on Blood Raven's watch.

Acadian: Jan is a shocking person.
Ouch, Blood Raven feels the burn! She'd like me to remind everyone that she and the rest of the 24th Michigan were stationed in Illinois when Abe was assassinated. But she and the rest of her regiment did serve as the honor guard for his funeral in Springfield, Illinois.
No slight to Blood Raven intended. She is awesome and, if unable to save Abe, the younger Crow of Storms should not feel badly. Jan is quite chopping and shocking her way through her current world. Does her new shotgun shoot shock rounds?
