Check it out. They're all from the trailer, but they're high quality, and you can analyze it properly.

I see Khajits can wear boots now. Hopefully, all beast races can.

Whoa i can't wait till it's released... I loved morrowind, and I'm sure I'm gonna love oblivion ^_^... Who has completed Morrowind?
I have, but not the expansions

.

Kimon · #3 06-24-2005, 10:55 AM

Khajiits wearing boots is sweet, but I'm worried that they'll sacrifice the "uniqueness" of beast races to appease the masses. Knowing Bethesda, though, they aim to please the loyal fans, so I'm not that worried. I just don't want one of the "Wood-Elf" Khajiits.

Holidays 2005, you can't come soon enough. Whoo-hoo!!!!

Leto · #4 06-24-2005, 05:16 PM

I know, eh!

Happy thoughts.

I've completed all the Morrowind main quests, Bloodmoon and Tribunal included. My main character is level 80 (No cheating).

I don't really care about beast race feet, mainly because I always use first person view, but Argonian feet were always cool. Mabye in Cyrodiil they foot-bind?

One last word: MOUNTS! Again!

T-nex · #5 06-24-2005, 06:41 PM

Oh how I love the argonian... lol, I defeated that evil god-thingy at level 20... :S.. a bit early i guess lol. But i haven't finished the misc quests and guild quests...

Hmm, oh man... I'm so excited, I can't wait till i get my hands on Oblivion ^_^...
I wonder if they'd do an MMORPG sometime...

Leto · #6 06-24-2005, 08:17 PM

I thought someone made a Multiplayer thing for Morrowind. If not, they should.

Heh, started a new game today. Got to lvl 30 in two hours. God, I've spent to much time learning how to play this game.

evil god-thingy

Which guy? The guy in red mountain? O.o

Dark Oddworld · #7 06-24-2005, 11:53 PM

I'm playing Morrowind right now! I'm on level 20 and i'm Redguard im not trying to finish the game im just kinda wandering around doing random things trying to level up and get better magic and weapons. God I love summer vacaton or I wouldn't have the time to play this game. I'm trying to explore the whole game and fill the whole map then I will consitider that I finished what I wanted to do on the game. I love dadric weapons but there so damn heavy.

Leto · #8 06-25-2005, 04:55 PM

Yeah, and the weapons are quite common, Daedriac ones, that is. Are you playng the XBox version, or the PC one?

A couple of screenshots I haven't seen before...

Behold! Dunmer!

In a tavern.

Random town.

Don't shoot!

Officially, this is the only Xbox360 launch title that I give a damn about (except for, of course, Condemned... linkage in sig).

Morrowind was (and is) one of my favorite games ever; I had a crazy Uber character before my first Xbox died, and even after all of those wasted hours I made a straight-up custom mage character on my new Xbox. Mantle of Woe + Royal Signet Ring = super crazy fun spells, any hour of the day at extra low, low prices!

I swear, I've poured more hours into Morrowind than any other game. Ever. If there is a game I would buy and Xbox360 for, it would be Oblivion.

Leto · #10 06-25-2005, 07:12 PM

Yep. I'm buying it for X360, mainly because I would have to upgrade my graphics card, again, for it to work on my PC. I did it for Doom 3, and the card was out of date the following months. T.T OMG TAHT LIEK SUX

But yeah, my level 80 was recently killed (DX

) due to a power cut, which was due to my ignoramous neighbour. It blew up my Xbox and my work PC. He cut down a tree tangled in power lines. What a ****ing intelligent, erm, [insert= insult]. But yeah, at least 300 hours lost there. And a 700 page journal on that save. T.T

Meh, there's a reason to start again...

SeaRex · #11 06-25-2005, 07:24 PM

Totally.

You should go for a near-pure custom character that you haven't already tried out. For example, I disliked the magic abilities in Morrowind (except for Alchemy and Enchant, of course), but I tried out a pure mage anyway and ended up having loads of fun with it.

Try out, like, a straight-up warrior, thief, or mage. Or not. That's what I friggin' love about Morrowind... you never play it the same way twice.

I've got the xbox verson and the loading times are horrble they don't need to reload the damn game everytime you die and they should put in check points. I too like Enchant and Alcemy but I still suck at it and am trying get better at it. I'm trying to get get a good amount of money so I can by every spell in the game even though I suck at most spells exept for destructon so im trying to get better at most magic. The damn power went out a few minutes ago and I just lost a good hour of work damn lightning. I also dislike the grunting everyone make's some of them are ok but others are just so annoying.

Yeah, all the characters I've made have been theif Argonians. I just like beast races. Mabye a Khajit alchemist... :/

Loading times= annoying. But, when you get into the swing of things, you get more patient.

Here's a tip: Find a place that always spawns greater Dremora. Steal their weapons off their corpse, then sell them to the mudcrab, one by one. But holding down on the black button for so long hurts after a while. :/

Yeah, Waiting4Oblivion is an awesome site for that kind of stuff. And for the record, Daedric Daggers look totally ROXOR!!

Got to lvl 30 in two hours.

Holy McMoly!

Good news, everybody! In a recent interview Tood Howard said that all outdoor areas would be totally seamless!! No outside load times!!!!

OMG-NESS! :O:O:O

OMG YUS!

[/n00b]

But yeah, lvl 30 in two hours is really easy. Scum tactic: Go straight to the Redoran vault, take the stuff, repair it, and sell it to the mudcrab. Heaps of money to train with.

T-nex · #16 06-28-2005, 06:19 AM

Lol.... I never found the Mudcrab... I think I accidently killed it... :S

the brew master · #17 06-28-2005, 12:29 PM

Meh..I just used to steal a bunch of stuff from shops then find a random house,place all of it in there then go to jail and all the stuff'll still be there.

Al the Vykker · #18 06-28-2005, 07:10 PM

I just started playing Morrowind again after getting some help from a friend. I decided to go more of the route of a warrior after my sorceror wasn't turning out quite well.

MojoMan220 · #19 06-28-2005, 08:25 PM

Morrowind ate up every hour of my Summer when it was released. It's astonishing when you drop an item in some barren wasteland, and return months later to find it still there. I thought, "Finally a game that doesn't have to mislead you into thinking the world goes on past the level you're on". I love the fact that you can start a new game and travel to the final boss within minutes. The only thing that I didn't like was the combat, and the fog... they sucked ankles.

Leto · #20 06-28-2005, 09:59 PM

Yeah, but the combat is getting a total revamp. Basically, if you phsyically hit your opponent, he'll actually get hit! (Instead of the random dice roll depending on your stats and such)

You wouldn't have been the first of us.

Al the Vykker · #21 06-29-2005, 08:32 AM

I'm glad to hear about the combat system change. That tavern shot reminded me of the beginning movie of Diablo 2 with the wanderer. Except the graphics of 360 and specifically Oblivion now surpass the actual cinematic graphics of d2.

Sinlight · #22 07-03-2005, 12:48 PM

I can't wait for Oblivion, after playing Morrowind I went on Ebay and bought every previous Elder Scrolls game. It and Oddworld are my favourite game series ever. My Xbox messed up a month ago and I had to buy a new one. Luckily I had my Lv.56 character on memory card. Lost everything else though...

Dark Oddworld · #23 07-03-2005, 09:29 PM

So thats why that mudcrab was holding more than just the normal crab meat. Crap I killed it just an hour before I heard about the talking Mudcrab!

Man that sucks......

Leto · #24 07-03-2005, 09:40 PM

Har har.

Just load a save game, he should still be alive and kicking.

Dark Oddworld · #25 07-03-2005, 09:45 PM

It was almost two weeks ago when it happened and I've saved over that file at least a hundred times by now.

Al the Vykker · #26 07-05-2005, 05:28 PM

I really wish I would have owned the game of the year edition of morrowind. Being a vampire or werewolf seems so enticing. My friend had it and he transformed in the middle of a town and killed everyone there and for the rest of the game was being hunted down. lol.

SeaRex · #27 07-05-2005, 06:15 PM

Being a werewolf blows.

Being a vampire ain't so great, either. But you get plenty of cool swag (if you join the right clan).

Leto · #28 07-05-2005, 08:11 PM

I think I killed all the vampires, in my main game that is. I mean, the main reason was the guy had full ebony.

But yeah, vampires and werewolves are a gimmick. Fun for killing sprees, though.
