good news y'all I found a real "New Game Bad" thread about Morrowind and how it's a dumbed down baby game compared to Daggerfall
https://rpgdot.rpgwatch.com/localhost/rpgdot.rpgwatch.com/httpdocs/phpBB2/viewtopic9b73-6.html?p=80734

even in 2002 people were joking that "Don't worry modders will fix it"

i especially find this fun because Morrowind and Daggerfall are my Top 2 TES games by a long shot lol

@CherryPixelBun this is fascinating

• I love how #6 is expressing a problem that a whole class of Oblivion and Skyrim mods were created to solve
• I’m obsessed with the sentence “Yippie I am ‘The One’, I can stop bullets.”
• comparing Morrowind’s story to The Phantom Menace when it’s literally too bleak and relentlessly hostile and disturbing for me to even engage with is absolutely fascinating to me, like what on Earth must Daggerfall have been like?
