Mike - The newcomer to MMO who doesn't have a clue where to go. Jane - The retired MMO vet who has taken up coaching the new generation, telling which button to press, where to assign the proper skill points, when to bring up the map and even how to properly pronounce the names of the animals...
Mike seemed to do ok in Star Trek Online. Then again, we didn't get to see how long it took him to finish the tutorial. And apparently he stopped after the tutorial was over.
actually, STO has plenty of explosions. I think it's more that Mike doesn't really play MMOs. Just look at his hilarious reactions to seeing other players. :D
Seeing Seyda Neen again, in so many years has really brought the nostalgia back..... and some trauma; like not realising what items were owned by people, completely breaking the lock pick on that starting chest and spending half an hour trying to kill a mud crab with an iron dagger even though my skills were in longblade.
Dante McMahon replace mud crab with cliff diver and longblade with axe, that's my first playthrough. that and spending all my money on a helmet I couldn't wear as an argonian and being unable to pay for the silt strider to the next town. Good times.
I remember starting over because I discovered I could have upped my stats more per level by jumping around a lot or swimming. I did that sort of thing a lot way back when (starting over because I found out I'd gimped my character's maximummpotential in some way) and consequentially I haven't finished a lot of games where I did it. Lol.
Half an hour in, and I'm still waiting for Jane and Mike to figure out their fungal infection superpower is actually a heal spell rather than damage...
I keep getting flashbacks of the time Mike didn't know about Soldier 76 heal skill ....one would think he would at least read the skill descriptions to see which one would produce bigger boom
An hour of OutsideXbox, afraid I've got to save this video for tomorrow! Got to ace my two exams tomorrow first (thank you so much for the well wishes on the first one, I think it went well). Have a great time at E3!
Several thousand years between ESO and TES3, and yet you have the exact same buildings, in the exact same places..... Somebody give those builders a raise.
As someone who's somewhat familiar with the lore of ES, and Morrowind especially, Jane's and Mike's commentary regarding it was extremely amusing and yet a little painful... :)
i like how Mike is like the younger brother getting distracted by every little thing and how Jane is the older sister just desperate to get the game done but their parents told her to let him play so she has to deal with his insufferable minute attention span :L Mike: "ooh there's a giant crab at the top" "i just want to see what's at the wayshrine" Jane(at all times): "Lets just do the quest yeah?"
Mike, you were thinking of The Dead Marshes. The Dead Marshes was an area of swampland east of the Emyn Muil and bordered on the east by the Dagorlad plain, site of the ancient Battle of Dagorlad during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. And yes there were no giant glowing mushrooms.
(Music education student listening to the melody at 26:55) That's a weird intervalic pattern, I wonder if it has something to do with the quest? (three minutes later) Guys it's a MINOR THIRD DOWN then a PERFECT FOURTH UP, weren't you listening?
While it all seems pretty nice, it's ridiculous that it isn't included into ESO plus, I'm not spending so much on an expansion, I can almost buy a complete game for that amount of money.
A potential new player over here, is it worth buying the basic game and the morrowind expansion only? Will I be competitive in pvp/pve or do I need some armors from the previous expansion
sorry mike, wobbly swords were used so that you could get extra blade length per slash, they were typically used for cutting horses legs off to get the rider off of it
OXBOX Advice to live by: "Stop orbiting the chicken!" Thank you, Mike and Jane, I had no idea that all I needed to do to succeed in life was to stop orbiting the giant chicken. No wonder I can't remember where I parked my giant bear mount...
That sword you are using at the start Mike the blade is style is either a flamberg which basically means flame blade, or it's a kriss which are designed for slicing. It looks more like a kriss though.
Also this game looks fun, watching this I actually want to play it. Although it's just not morrowind without a swarm of cliff racers blotting out the sun.
GhengisJohn Its not fun, don't do what I did and waste your money, combat is too drawn out and takes forever for little to literally no loot, shitload of glitches and the quests are repetitive. There's more to complain about but those are my main petpeeves, get the original morrowind if u want to play MORROWIND
Jane: What's your plan now? Mike: Stand on top of a rock. Jane: OK Mike: Oh, they can get on top of the rock! It's ok Mike, I always confused Kagouti with the Daleks aswell :D
the internet sucks where I live and I'm downloading this game hoping praying lol that I don't need a good internet connection. I don't care PvP this game was my favorite in Jr high o believe is when I played it
This is a beautiful game it just needs to fix it's problems it's looking a lot like Battlefield four for me it has high potential just need to fix all the bugs
Enemy does something, game pops up a notification saying hold rt to exploit, when you hold rt character does and heavy attack, nothing happens... asks am i exploiting ?? Maybe just maybe if you hit the enemy with the heavy attack, things might change....
i hate how some peoples excuses for me liking morrowind over every elderscrolls game is nostalgia even tho im 18 and i started playing morrowing and finished the main quest and expansions like a few months ago
"They're not going to put something super deadly 100 yards from the boat..."
I don't think they remember Morrowind... lol
Nor Oblivion lol
Literally, right over the bridge of Riverwood, there are wolves waiting for you to stroll on by.
@endorbr// the difference being you can't die in Skyrim unless you're really trying
I remember a flight scroll...
I dont think they ever played any of these games they are fakes try g to get views.
My voice might be a bit horse from yelling "The fungus is a heal, the fungus is a heal!" Love you guys, but wow that was frustrating. lol
On today's episode of "Jane Explains": Elder Scrolls lore, MMO mechanics, reptile biology.
Mike - The newcomer to MMO who doesn't have a clue where to go.
Jane - The retired MMO vet who has taken up coaching the new generation, telling which button to press, where to assign the proper skill points, when to bring up the map and even how to properly pronounce the names of the animals...
Mike seemed to do ok in Star Trek Online. Then again, we didn't get to see how long it took him to finish the tutorial. And apparently he stopped after the tutorial was over.
Maybe there weren't enough explosions to keep him occupied.
actually, STO has plenty of explosions. I think it's more that Mike doesn't really play MMOs. Just look at his hilarious reactions to seeing other players. :D
I've played "how magic are these mushrooms" before. It didn't end well...
Seeing Seyda Neen again, in so many years has really brought the nostalgia back..... and some trauma; like not realising what items were owned by people, completely breaking the lock pick on that starting chest and spending half an hour trying to kill a mud crab with an iron dagger even though my skills were in longblade.

I did that sort of thing a lot way back when (starting over because I found out I'd gimped my character's maximummpotential in some way) and consequentially I haven't finished a lot of games where I did it. Lol.
well finishing morrowind never really was the point.
Half an hour in, and I'm still waiting for Jane and Mike to figure out their fungal infection superpower is actually a heal spell rather than damage...
I keep getting flashbacks of the time Mike didn't know about Soldier 76 heal skill ....one would think he would at least read the skill descriptions to see which one would produce bigger boom
ashtherion it's like watching the worse noobs play a game. had to stop watching this as to not gouge my eyes out in frustration LOL
They don't stop to read anything.
To be fair, I'd rather heal an enemy than myself with fungal infection.
Yeah, infection doesn't sound like a good thing....
Press RT to exploit
Mike "I've just employed a load of underpaid workers."
Nostalgic gamer memories are the ultimate HD remaster.
Jane - "Build the bar first & everything just springs up around it, I'd assume." That City: Skylines experience coming in handy?
Dublin airport supports the theory, so I'm told.
So Oxtra has Kippers the Khajit and Oxbox has knock-off Kippers... Slippers? Mackerel?
Slippers is perfect
Annie Furlong-Muir argonian=master race
The way Mike hit the "k" in Vivek, it's like he was punishing it for backtalk.
16:32 "We protect the green" They say right after poisoning some crops.
lol.
"Not the time for moral decisions, it's the time for poisoning crops." Don't let M Night Shyamalan hear you or he'll release The Happening 2
An hour of OutsideXbox, afraid I've got to save this video for tomorrow! Got to ace my two exams tomorrow first (thank you so much for the well wishes on the first one, I think it went well). Have a great time at E3!
Good luck
GOOD LUCK!
Best of luck!
Caitlin RC good luck on your exams
Good luck
Several thousand years between ESO and TES3, and yet you have the exact same buildings, in the exact same places.....
Somebody give those builders a raise.
Watching this while doing my own daily quests in ESO. Great to see you guys covering the game again, and hope to see more.
Yokels? Jane's unintentional egg puns have me cracking up.
Wow ESO actually looks ok now
TerminaterX24 it's not there's a ton of bugs
I think those are just the enemy desig-
oh wait, you meant the glitches, didn't you? I imagine they're there for the "authentic ESO" experience.
TerminaterX24 this is a fucking joke why did the game just corrupt my PlayStation
Deleted all of my fucking save data for everything not just the game
It's great!
I learned more Biology in this one video than my entire time at highschool, cheers Professor Jane!
I love how they're running along and get distracted by other characters' pets. XD
"Oh look a Chicken...!"
Ellen's favorite game! Wait... Jane? Jane's favorite game!
As someone who's somewhat familiar with the lore of ES, and Morrowind especially, Jane's and Mike's commentary regarding it was extremely amusing and yet a little painful... :)
i like how Mike is like the younger brother getting distracted by every little thing and how Jane is the older sister just desperate to get the game done but their parents told her to let him play so she has to deal with his insufferable minute attention span :L Mike: "ooh there's a giant crab at the top" "i just want to see what's at the wayshrine"
Jane(at all times): "Lets just do the quest yeah?"
You two work wonderfully with one another. Great chemistry...
Mike, you were thinking of The Dead Marshes. The Dead Marshes was an area of swampland east of the Emyn Muil and bordered on the east by the Dagorlad plain, site of the ancient Battle of Dagorlad during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. And yes there were no giant glowing mushrooms.
Damn, I really want this game. And any game Oxbox play is awesome, except Aliens Colonial Marines.
Finally I found gameplay where the UA-camr doesn't sound so tired all the time.
(Music education student listening to the melody at 26:55) That's a weird intervalic pattern, I wonder if it has something to do with the quest? (three minutes later) Guys it's a MINOR THIRD DOWN then a PERFECT FOURTH UP, weren't you listening?
Mike: "There's a giant crab up there!"
Jane: "I don't think that's what that is."
I've got some fantastic news for you, Jane.
"FULL HD CARAPACE" sounds like a typical google auto complete result.
'There's a giant crab at the top of it!'
'I don't think that's what that is.'
The funny thing is, it actually is a giant crab.
An hour of oxbox? Oh, what a day... what a lovely day!
This really was an egg-celent episode. Can´t wait for more ESO shenanigans.
very good commentary, really enjoyed it. ☺
This was great. Loved it. You guys are awesome together. thanks
Yay!!!!! Just got an ad for Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind on a gameplay video about Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind.
While it all seems pretty nice, it's ridiculous that it isn't included into ESO plus, I'm not spending so much on an expansion, I can almost buy a complete game for that amount of money.
TheNoci im paying 3x more money just because we dont use dollar euro or pound
TheNoci the expansion is 30 bucks to upgrade though. 30-40 buck's
lmaooo just the expansion cost $99 for me. That's just Morrowind, separate from the game
A potential new player over here, is it worth buying the basic game and the morrowind expansion only? Will I be competitive in pvp/pve or do I need some armors from the previous expansion
6:30 - I never realised you were Marxists! "Hold RT to exploit" - "Is that a class skill? I assume..." I love it.
Luke and Ellen should continue the adventures of Kippers in ESO
They could team up! Lizards and cats, living together in harmony!
Peter Ortiz Luke*
Jane, I'm loving your lizard knowledge
Just got this game today, it's downloading
This is so much better than studying for English paper 1(which I have tomorrow morning)
Very helpful to show what the expansion was like, thank you.
Morrowind ESO what a game...
I play it so much, that i did a little tribute to it...
im DL this right now for me and my little boy to play together. ty for the fun video!!
sorry mike, wobbly swords were used so that you could get extra blade length per slash, they were typically used for cutting horses legs off to get the rider off of it
Been along time since ive seen a beginner play eso but still good stuff guys keep up the fun. Lol
Was I the only one screaming "Search the bodies!" as he ran off after each kill?
The mushroom power isn't an attack, it heals you and nearby allies.
OXBOX Advice to live by: "Stop orbiting the chicken!" Thank you, Mike and Jane, I had no idea that all I needed to do to succeed in life was to stop orbiting the giant chicken. No wonder I can't remember where I parked my giant bear mount...
That sword you are using at the start Mike the blade is style is either a flamberg which basically means flame blade, or it's a kriss which are designed for slicing. It looks more like a kriss though.
Fun video, that mushroom ability was for healing yourself, btw
I LOVE Morrowind and Skyrim
Also this game looks fun, watching this I actually want to play it. Although it's just not morrowind without a swarm of cliff racers blotting out the sun.
GhengisJohn Its not fun, don't do what I did and waste your money, combat is too drawn out and takes forever for little to literally no loot, shitload of glitches and the quests are repetitive. There's more to complain about but those are my main petpeeves, get the original morrowind if u want to play MORROWIND
Please do a Lets Play where you three climb Mt Doom! PLEASE!!!!!!
"You three", including Gexor, d'aww. Though if they tried they'd probably run into the Red Mountain Ghostfence.
Or they might pull an oxtra and reach the top only to realize that they climbed the wrong mountain
As a grandmaster Egg punner I can confirm that Jane's egg pun was eggscellent.
An Argonian with a monkey pet is like Imperials having snake pets!
Haha love how mike gets so happy seeing a pet chicken
Wildwolf132 dino chicken
Long-form content from Outside Xtra, and three days off from work - has the solar system aligned recently or something? This is a treat!
AHH! Giant Tiger! As he watches another player ride past...
Somebody's poisoned the waterhole!
Yeah Joe, I was like "uh... won't this be bad for the town?" But I guess, whatever.
the nature of the toxin suggests that it is not fatal to humans?
"Oh! I can block"
Classic Mike 😊
Jane: What's your plan now?
Mike: Stand on top of a rock.
Jane: OK
Mike: Oh, they can get on top of the rock!
It's ok Mike, I always confused Kagouti with the Daleks aswell :D
An hour of Oxbox. I'm a happy bunny
The hamburger button
Such nostalgia
You've earned some positive kwama for helping those egg hands.
I'm guessing the song they're referring to is "kwama chameleon".
The marsh full of dead bodies in lord of the rings is called the dead marshes btw :)
I always think that Mike is not the "looting" type of guy.
Yeah I was right.
Why aren't you looting, Mike????? please looooooot. It's right there. Do it for the kids!!!! D:
Wait, I spoke too soon. Fair play to you.
My Argonian character is named... Sugarscales. Tremble in fear.
the internet sucks where I live and I'm downloading this game hoping praying lol that I don't need a good internet connection. I don't care PvP this game was my favorite in Jr high o believe is when I played it
Classic egg jokes are really 'cracking' me up!
Looks like Revus went to the Jerk Ryder school of fashion ;D
Nice to see that someone else is playing without bugs looks like I just got unlucky
This is a beautiful game it just needs to fix it's problems it's looking a lot like Battlefield four for me it has high potential just need to fix all the bugs
I'm just going to switch to EU servers
I'm ready for the random Russian guy who's going to scream at me
Still busy with Path of exile. would like to try morrowind but already have 2 online games batallion 1944 and POE
The Argonian home region is the black Marsh
Anyday that includes a bard getting killed is a good day.
We need a segment hosted by Jane: "What you don't know can kill you" ;)
that was me at the door leaving the nursery!!
I hope Mike noticed that his cliff diver was doing more damage than his melee swings. His class is more of a caster not a melee fighter.
That khajiit was probably so proud after going to the gym and building up that sweet pex only for you to go and say that they look like a lady!
All of that just to find a pub. I respect your commitment.
"Please, someone! Will you help?"
**Immediately runs in the opposite direction**
now I need to get this game once I have time
I feel for the bard, big winged reptiles attack me whenever I start singing too.
Comes in to watch some OX Morrowind gameplay... leaves knowing more about cold blooded animals. Noice
any chance of a meet and greet in LA guys????
PLEASE!!!!
I got a good idea for a top ten top ten things the military has that game have thx love your vid keep them up
Wait a minute...
You're a warden, with greyish pyjamas.
YOU'RE A GREY WARDEN!
Confirmed Elder Scrolls/Dragon Age crossover!
Enemy does something, game pops up a notification saying hold rt to exploit, when you hold rt character does and heavy attack, nothing happens... asks am i exploiting ?? Maybe just maybe if you hit the enemy with the heavy attack, things might change....
i hate how some peoples excuses for me liking morrowind over every elderscrolls game is nostalgia even tho im 18 and i started playing morrowing and finished the main quest and expansions like a few months ago
"Hold RT to exploit... is that a class skill?"
I got it!
Silly Mike and Jane. The Fungal Growth is your heal. :P
Sep Adder is an almost OxBox worthy pun. Well done, developers.
2:29 The Dead Marshes, yes that is their name.
Please do more 1 hour stuff
anyone else thinking that Jane is confusing the silt striders with the worms from Dune?
i want Skyrim Online so much, it would be so good :p
