This is what Kills Games: DLC Disease
DLC was once a fantastic way to extend the enjoyment players got out of their games. They added tons of great content and often came from the hearts of developers who were excited to add more to their passion projects. But today, DLC has become one of the primary victims of the video game industry's ever-increasing greed. Join me as we explore examples of DLC done right, and the many done wrong, as well as talking more critically about what shapes a good and bad piece of downloadable content.

The Death of AAA Games

AAA video games once occupied the space of the greatest on offer. In recent years, that's all changed. But how did it become this way? What kinds of changes have occurred? Take a deep dive with me and figure out why Indie games are filling the role AAA titles once did, and doing a great job at it.

Greed Ruined The Sims

The Sims was once a fantastic life simulation game with a promising future. However, the latest installment in the series has drastically reduced the quality of the games and made it clear to players that it's no longer about making a good game, but solely about making money.

Is Morrowind Better than Skyrim?
Переглядів 190 тис.9 місяців тому
If you're reading this, the title and thumbnail are totally clickbait. This whole video is more about discussing the shortcomings and shortcuts of and made in Skyrim (and to a lesser extent, Oblivion) due to a trend of simplification and obsession with accessibility in the gaming industry, which Bethesda is not exempt from. Sorry about the bit rate by the way, I think I just figured out how to ...

There's a ton of Kenshi tutorials out there, we all know that. But I am yet to find any one comprehensive guide which takes you from the very start all the way to becoming a beast all in one concise formula and video. So I decided to make one.

All it requires is a quick run over with the dice roll mechanic and you know what you're doing, once you're past the early game its plenty fun Now i have a level 23 Warlock flying across the sky blasting apart all those who apose me
Wait, you've never had a Venetian Eugenics programme where you seduce everyone and forge a doge-dynasty of geniuses?
apples and oranges...morrowind for sure is the better rpg no question but since skyrim is more of an rpg lite and actually an action adventure game you cant really say one is better than the other. skyrim exploration has still not been topped while morrowind had the most alien and foreign setting ive ever experience. ill revisit both including oblivion several more times in my life. but nice clickbait
Great game, but it´s way too easy once you know what to do. You can be absolutely overpowered after a few hours with god-tier gear and weapons. In my opinion the game only offers three big challenges. Kill Lord phoenix without kidnapping, kill Cat Long without kidnapping or kill tin fist in a 1v1
I would consider the games to about as good, but with very different strengths and weaknesses that draw and repel different people. Skyrim is much better at being an immersive action/adventure game with cool sceneraios, fun combat, immersive visuals and sounds, and full voice acting. It's also more approachable and a lot better balanced around it's level and scaling systems. These kinds of things matter more than some people give it credit for. Some of the flaws and bugs/exploits are also pretty humorous. Morrowind has stronger RPG aspects, much better writing, a lot more variety in equipment and spells, along with better fast traveling, factions and magic systems, and is also more creative. It suffers quite a bit from some poor decisions and being the starting point of the trend that lead to Skyrim. A number of things that Morrowind changed from Daggerfall streamline the game but result in less depth and are often poorly balanced. For instance, you can no longer climb walls or bash locks, making warriors even less capable of matching other classes at common tasks. The leveling system is probably the worst offender: If they literally just ported the DF system into MW, the game would play way better and more balanced. Instead, you get a lot less customization but grossly outscale the whole game the second you step out of Balmora, making characters hard to enjoy for very long. Fatigue is also infuriating if you don't cheese it, same with magicka as well but that's less intrusive. Daggerfall already functions the best mechanically out of any TES game, I don't know why they tampered with it so much going forward. I do think that once they had a better grasp of things, they handled moving away from the design with more grace in Skyim, though I wish they never left it in the first place. Morrowind with Daggerfall's systems would be incredible to play. So would Skyrim with Morrowind's design philosophy and Daggerfaĺl's mechanics. Alas, it seems we can't have everything wrapped nicely in one package.
Fun video, and wow 2,300 comments, but I'll throw my coin in the well. Hit rate in a first person (or thirdperson) action game should not be a thing. Any time agency is taken from the player or bad things happen to them that are no fault of their own, they are going to find it frustrating. If you are fighting a battle you want your misses to be your natural miss rate from hitboxes or whatever. I still miss sometimes in Skyrim and every other game, but rolling a dice to see if the game will count what you objectively did right undermines agency. In a more strategy focused game, turn based or hybrid style games, there are always edge cases, but it's pretty indefensible to have an action game that undermines your ability as a player because you haven't dumped enough hours in to raise your skill yet.
Only the most pretentious chuds think Morrowwind is better lmao. Too blinded by nostalgia to see it for what it really is. A dated old RPG mess.
Fix the combat and visuals and it's really good Don't fix it and it's still good But personally i still prefer Oblivion It was an incredible experience watching LotR growing up them bumping into Oblivion by sheer accident Finding out that Sean Bean is here to die for me again, in another epic fantasy except this time I'm the hero.
morrowind is first person fallout 1&2
Skyrim is the best elder scrolls game so far. The other games are cringe and outdated.
Not the most optimized but it's a decent path 😅
I never thought the claims about Morrowind's combat system were valid - it's unusual in todays gaming landscape, but so what? The first two RPGs I played pretty much simultaniously after their release where Morrowind and Gothic (yeah I'm old like that). Their combat system couldn't have been more different: Morrowind's combat is a dice roll based on skill value, in Gothic you can beat any enemy, with any weapon, at any time, if your attacks have pitch perfect timing and you block and evade attacks enough (yes that mean you may be hacking for 20 minutes straight at a low level enemy that will one hit kill you if you ever fail to perform perfectly - and the controls are horrible: tank controls with w a s d + arrow keys; no mouse whatsoever - but it's possible I know I did it, mostly because I was 12 and completely uncapable of figuring out how to continue quests or advance skills, because I was stupid like that). But these where my first experiences and I cherish them the same, though they are on opposite ends of the possible spectrum. I enjoy replaying Morrowind to this day, dice roll combat just works - I'll never replay Gothic though it's great, I'm getting PTSD just thinking about mastering that bum ass controls again...
In highschool i had a computer class that basically was just a study period where nothing got done, so it had alot of the jocks and they obviously never really talked about many games aside from huge multiplayer things, COD, Battlefield etc. but one day one of these dudes came into the room and said to his friends and this is a 100% direct quote "Guys! I played this 'Skyrim' game, and its not as gay as it looks!" In that moment i realized, these games arnt made for people like me. It was made for people like him. Guys who still buy yearly Madden.
The movement system in the game is atrocious No quest markers Outdated graphics Enemies that literally one-shot you The RNG combat. Many hits and misses so no guarantee to hit. No quests just rumours. XP and loot are limited even when clearing out a hideout with bandits. I'll stick with the improved Elder Scrolls Game: Skyrim.
I love that you can dispose of bodies through loot menu
For being able to join all the clans or factions is fine for some like nobody should know your in dark brotherhood so it shouldn’t clash with anything same with theives college is just going to school companions is the only real one that should clash with others but I can’t think of another faction
There’s ties to both in db and thieves guild too but your point should have been about becoming the leader of all of them that’s dumb and lame but as a fan of both you really nailed everything else
Everybody got their own preference. I played Morrowind on 2004 at the age of 20. Only played for less than 10 hours. I'm a JRPG guy so this kind of RPG is not for me. Chrono Trigger is the best game for me. At that time I prefer GTA Vice City or Commandos 😂
Everyone here sounds like Darksouls players, and the same as with darksouls players, it's just nostalgia. I put darksouls on my list of favourites because the memories of how hard it use to be compared to how easy it is now. It's no different than looking at an old picture where you we're 20kg heavier, vs the mirror where you have defined six pack abs now. It's mindblowing how nostalgia can directly effect you're perspective on things. A lot of people talk about the Casual-ness of skyrim, the hand holding and similar things, but does it really matter, if it's like that, apart from the nostalgia aspect. Many things are listed on where Morrowind has its pros, and skyrim has its cons. Reminds me of those GTA 4 VS GTA 5 videos. As much as i enjoyed all those cool things about gta 4, i still played Gta 5 a lot more, enjoyed it, a lot more. Even skyrim has its cool quirks that Morrowind doesn't have, and if you're that into not having you're little hand held, play skyrim, find a few mods that remove hand holding, trust me there IS 100% mods for that, and then go experience that which you apparently like so much. If you do, you'll end up either loving skyrim just as much, or you'll end up quiting in the first 10 hours, Why will you quit, you ask? Cause you never liked that kind of games, you're nostalgia makes you think that you do. I love games like that, played Deus Ex 1, thief 2, system shock, metroid & vania, darksouls and similar soulslike games, noita, hollow knight, rimworld, from the depths, stellaris, all games that don't hold you're hand, i got my experiences with them, i enjoy it, but i don't think many of yall actually do, just nostalgia festa around here. Same goes for fallout 3, played it like for 40hours and never felt at home like i did with skyrim, tried exploring a lot, doing my thing, but it doesn't hold up the same. Same could be said for skyrim lovers, though skyrim is a better game, and has a lot of mods to make it even better IF you know what you're actually doing with mods. Yes mods aren't apart of the game, but it also is cause it's part of the experience at any time that you feel like i could be. I bet Morrowind is amazing, so many people can't feel that way if it's not, but you're in serious denial if you think skyrim is any less amazing.
No it isn't. Easy question.
I travelled to the marsh lands and there fought raptors with my bare hands growing tougher with each encounter. Now I fight Beak Things, hordes of them clad in heavy armour and wielding a sword as long as I am.
When was Skyrim ever good?
I kid you not. I went through almost the whole game and almost both dlcs collecting ingredients and potions that fortify speed and then ranked my alchemy skill to the max with master alembic, retort, mortor and pestle, and calcinator, then drank all the potions underneath the city of mornhold in the dwemer city, and my atribute menu highlighted red. Scared the everliving shite out of me for a second. I flicked my controller stick and moved across the entire chamber. I still tried to play but it was too hard to see what i was doing. Plus i was laughing like a maniac. Lol
Honnestly, Morrowind and Oblivion are better than Skyrim. Skyrim is beautiful, has a great soundtrack and more interesting combat but... that's all. It's quest are interesting but not memorable for the most part. Morrowind had a greater set up, great music too (and Skyrim used them as well), great quest... I loved the exploration, all those characters uou could really talkee to... and man... what a great land Morrowind is. But I prefered Oblivion. He had the best quest and it's gameplay was way better than morrowind. And like Morrowind, he had that great class system (more casu, yes, but still interesting enough, unlike Skyrim). In reality, I think both Morrowind and Oblivion had a more interesting gameplay than Skyrim (with Oblivion being even good on that point) and both had far better quest (best ones are in Oblivion though).
Skyrim is a trash game.
I also think timed quest should be a must and not completing one should have consequences.
Morrowind is my favorite game of all time. For very good reasons. It is incredible. ❤ good video 😊
All these are clearly just exploits man! 🤦
I could never get into morrowind it was so clunky
where’d u go big dog
Just been busy. No video ideas either! Any suggestions?
I played it in 2006/2007 for the first time, Balmora was my favourite city and Vivec was truly hard to navigate ( it was hard because my english wasnt any good at the time). PS: the first time i finished i accidentaly did it by doing the dark path, killing vivec and all.
Im playing morrowind for the first time now and just walking takes forever. Its kind of making me lost interest on that alone.
Luck and Agility also effect your chance to hit with weapons. Also reflect is stupid because it makes every spell but absorb health useless.
I now play morrowind on my android phone. I put in hours on original xbox but never finished due to game breaking bug. i bought it early on. im enjoying the brutal challenge with no hand holding.
Grinding? In morrowind? Soultrap on target + fortify skill spell +hitting a wall beside you = godmode😂.
Does Morrowind have any kind of player housing? Like the houses you can buy / build in Skyrim?
After installing MSOP-what's-it's-name, i.e a mod for bettering the graphics and fixing a ton of bugs, my biggest gripe with Morrowind is that I can't put it down once I've booted it up
WOW's horse DLC made Blizzard MORE money than all of StarCraft 2
If you love Starsector - you must taste "Space Rangers 2: Dominators" (2004)
The number of producers in Bethesda who set tasks and distribute human resources is ALREADY greater than the number of teams who made Skyrim and Fallout 3. Nate Perikaite talked about this
I agree with everything except the part about AI generators))) Bethesda went exactly in the direction of procedural generation in Starfield. Alas, Bethesda did not develop its strengths that emerged during Morrowind - but decided to turn to “cinema”, cinematography. Cutscenes and theater. When the NPC has a couple of memorized lines and that’s it. Yes, in Oblivion this simplification was masked by the introduction of the Radiant AI system. But the example of Starfield shows that even such AI was abandoned. The irony is that Todd Howard always dreamed of making sports simulations. He became the main thing in the studio purely because of his appearance and voice. Pete Hines decided to use him to make him the face of Bethesda. Although this man doesn't know a damn thing about RPGs. He spends entire games playing Madden.
Counter point: Nuh uh
Bethesda would not exist today without the casualizing the games because they need money to be as big as they are. That being said smaller studios make better games usually and that's why we need to stop buying AAA titles.
The question "is it better" is a irrelevant question. Better how? Gameplay? Story? etc. I cant play Morrowind cus of clunky gameplay.
I ain't gonna lie, only had the time or capaxity for fighting with others in multiplayer, memory storage, and time share. Played it forst on the XBOX when it was released, I'm still playing it, albeit on OpenMW now-a-days. Played Skyrim on the 360, I think they optimized it for home consoles, cause' it was po-ta-toe chip heaven with the same annoying actors and actorettes changing their speechy dialect all the way through to sound fresh, felt like a primitive Final Fantasy game, which I spent enough time in to know it was reflected like dialogue in Morrowind, just on a grander scale in Skyrim.
Does anyone under the age of 30 actually know what a "boomer" is without Googles help? I swear it's a label thrown onto anyone over the age of 40 that doesn't own every taylor Swift album.
From Software showed that shareholders shouldn't sht their pants when games want to be authentic in their way. Embrace what elder scrolls is and the fans will multiply. Or play it safe and become a forgettable grey mass that does ok because casuals get baited on day 1
morrowind was my first es game and with the exception of its two dlc i always felt it was mid at best but mostly shit
Nah. Even oblivion is better than morrowind.
I think that for the time period it did have more effort put into it than Skyrim. Not to call that a bad game, either.
Stamina+weaponskill+agility determine hit chance
