It's funny that, since Morrowind, all the player characters become imortal somehow. The Nerevarine is in Akavir (supposedly), The Hero of Kvatch became Sheogorath (pretty much confirmed) even appearing in Skyrim as the Daedra prince and the Dragonborn is binded with Hermaneus Mora and his realm, thus immortal as well (though Dragonborn are technically immortal anyway, or at least their souls keep reincarnating).
You're right, but it's pretty obvious we are to remplace miraak, just like him we want all the power, all the knowledge, we think we better than everyone, and merciless. and after miraak's defeat, you are to serve hermaeus mora.
@@terrybigsmilesmcknuckles4816 Dragon born souls belong to akatosh. If you sold your soul to a million daedric princes Akatosh will be like: '' His soul is mine and mine only! ''.
Zoarmhirr Only the main quest, and DLC quests are canon. Typically it’s a different random unnamed character that does the College, Guilds, and Brotherhood quest lines... all those events are canon, but it’s never actually our character that does them. Obviously we can do them ourselves, but that’s never been the canonical result so far. Basically the Last Dragonborn survives Helgen, Negotiates a temporary truce between the Empire & Stormcloaks, defeats Alduin, stops Harkon from blocking out the sun, defeats Mirrak, and finally becomes the new “Champion” of Hermaeus Mora until he dies, and his soul goes to Akatosh. Pretty much every side faction quest line was done by someone else, and the only Canon Daedric quest is the one for Hermaeus mora. Just watch, that’s going to be the lore explanation. It always is...
@@robertsmalls2293 That's true. And because it's never said WHO did all those other things, it can still be implied that it was the player character themself, in this case the Dragonborn, so it's not impossible that the PC does those quests but because Bethesda doesn't want us, the players, to feel forced to do specific things because that's what the character is meant to do, they make it very vague. Which in terms of the gameplay experience I think it makes it more fun but when it comes to the lore it just makes no sense, wouldn't it be common knowledge that The Dragonborn stopped the Skyrim civil war, became the Arch-Mage, and became the harbinger of the companions? It just makes sense for there to be songs sung about his adventures as not only a dragon slayer because he is basically the ultimate being in his time, excluding the dark brotherhood because that wouldn't be public knowledge.
What I love about Morrowind lore is that the game feels like you're a time traveller, taking part in a historical event, only you just happen to be the pivotal player in said event! The game has a sense of history in its atmosphere, of old traditions and old religions. Following the trials of the Tribunal Temple is like taking part in an epic fable or myth, like Gilgamesh. Later on in the game you get a sense of change in the air, a new era is dawning, and the old is making way for the new. Incredible game.
the thing i loved about the morrowind storyline seemed to not be set in stone. it didn't seem like a singular line of missions, but a freeform set of tasks and missions, that you would need to work for more than just punch through 10 draugr, pick up the important humptytump of the ancient hooplawoo and bring it to dude-guy or lady-gall. it prompted you to go deeper into the surrounding lore, the culture, to read what you need to do. you genuinely had to pay attention and read, sometimes between the lines, to know what to do. such is the way of RPG. at the end of the skyrim storyline, what you know about lore would be "yeah, nords and stuff, and sovngarde. dragons are old n stuff. and that was IF you didn't just click through conversations and sprint to the map marker to press e to activate and run back. skyrim is awesome and beautiful, but morrowind was the deepest i ever went into an elder scrolls game. and i completed that only long after i completed oblivion or skyrim.
Uhhh Morrowind's quests also boil down to going into a dungeon, killing things, and then bringing a thing to a guy. The main difference was that Skyrim's dungeons were actually fun and took longer than 3 minutes to get through. There wasn't anything terribly complicated about having to read like you're implying either, but having to follow directions instead of following waypoints definitely makes the traveling aspect of your adventure more engaging. Overall Morrowind is deeper and more immersive than Skyrim, but not by nearly as much as people like to say...
I got Morrowind back when it came out. Never found the main quest, played for a couple hundred hours, still had a blast. I just reinstalled it a few days ago, after discovering your lore series. The timing for this vid could not be better! :D
You remind me of Rebelzize when he first started. Keep up the great videos. I just completed Morrowind's main story and all its DLC's for the first time a couple weeks ago. Getting into an older TES game is pretty difficult, but now I can comfortably play up to Daggerfall, even though Skyrim was my first entry into the series.
Chrymzon Damn thats nice :D Barely see someone who are willing to go back to older games :D I myself started with morrowind, but I've played every game from Arena to Skyrim :D ( also be prepared when you are about to play with Arena that game is mindfucking as hell. I gave up several times before i could finally get out from the first dungeon )
I actually just figured out how to hotkey my controls in Arena for DOSBOX. I have yet to play the game with my custom control scheme, but I can already tell it is going to be a lot better. If you are interested in giving it a shot, you have to press CTRL + F1 in order to mess around with your settings. If you'd like I can do a video explaining on how to do it. I have gotten up to the part where I have retrieved the tablet from the Fortress of Ice in Skyrim.
So here's what the protagonists are doing. The Nerevarine: Went on an expedition to Akavir. Hasn't been heard from since but can't say for sure if he's dead. Champion of Cyrodiil/Hero of Kvatch: Essentially became Sheogorath and went on vacation as he appears in Skyrim. Last Dragonborn: Pretty much whatever we do with him currently. All we know is that he was forced to serve Hermaous Mora to defeat Miraak. I hope Nerevarine and Dragonborn make an appearance or are referenced properly in TES 6. There's probably gonna be a Daedric quest related to Sheogorath so there's that.
This.... This is why Morrowind is the fucking best elder scrolls game. I love the prophecy. "He honors the blood of the tribe unmourned, he eats their sin and is reborn" fucking legit, dude
The last dragonborn is probably a Shezarrine, as he embodies elements of Lorkhan, aka Shezarr. The champion of Cyrodiil eventually becomes the new Sheogorath... a Sheogoratharine.
I recently discovered your channel and loved it, thanks for all the vids! I would love to see a vid about the main events that marked the beginning and the end of each era.
The problem with morrowind is that it’s a very old game with extremely dated graphics and it can turn modern players off people who lived when it was first released morrowind is a great game one of the best problem is because of it’s dated engine it’s beauty and potential is not fully utilized that’s why protects like skywind are important for the elder scrolls community to back cause it’s not just bringing Skyrim players in and to truly comprehend the true beauty and scale that the original morrowind players saw that’s just my view
I wasn’t there for that, however I was there for the oblivion crisis and I truly believe oblivion was a complete masterpiece, I’ve heard morrowind the same but never got around to playing it
@@pepeinternationalnews12yea57it's much harder than oblivion and skyrim as well, you don't get markers to tell you where to go, you have to follow directions given by someone, it's combat is harder and chance based as well, you may hit enemy 10 times but there is a chance it will only land attack one time
Kebab with extra garlic mayo Its a fun game it has its problems but if your a Elder Scrolls fan you most likely will like it. People give it a hard time because it's not perfect, you have to remember it's a MMO but overall I find it really fun and there's a lot of lore in the game
Good job man, I've watched a lot of lore videos but i certainly like your style. Keep up the good work! Home to be seeing more videos from you! You got a sub in me, which is more than i can say about other people who make lore videos. I too am really into the lore and have studied all aspects of it, mostly in CHIM and the Daedric Princes, they interest me the most (Except Vivec sleeping with one and creating Muatra from its... yea). But keep up the good work!
during the playthrough of the character i played the most in morrowind, the main quest broke at some point (i remember the orc in the mages guild literally started spinning and shot into the air, never to be seen again, since she didn't die i never got that warning message) but in order for me to acquire wraithguard and weild keening and sunder to kill dagoth ur, i had to kill vivec. based on my own personal experience i am inclined to believe that the nerevarine killed vivec, plus he was a dick a had it coming (foul murder anyone?)
As someone how didn't like Morrowind back in the day and only replayed it after Oblivion and Skyrim, I nowadays appreciate it the most and especially the Nerevarine and its lore
3:57 "Somehow, Dagoth Ur Returned." You know what this sentence means? if The Elder Scrolls Morrowind ever manages to get a bigscreen adaptation, and it turns out shit, we will not be able to complain.
I tried in dutch once. But I get quiet a lot and stopped after ep 3 because well... it was just not that good haha. Maybe I will one day do loreplay, that I play skyrim and do loretalk while doing it.
Marrowind is gangster. Idc what anyones says. Its also funny as heck. I mean about 15 mins in after leaving Sayda Neen if you go down the northern path I believe, a dork of a wizard falls out of the sky and dies right in front of you and you can take his shit, its so random. Many other things like this make the game so fun. If they remastered it to have Skyrim level graphics(But Same character design of Marrowind) & fast travel more people would probably play it. Only the real ones know about ashlanding it with no fast travel.
I liked that the storyline was also quite vague at the same time. It's not really 100% we are literally Nerevar reborn, or just somebody who "mantled" Nerevar by accomplishing similar feats to him and thus fitting into Nerevarine prophecy. There were previous failed incarnates and Azura would probably keep trying until it worked out, unless Dagoth Ur would manage to capture Kagrenac's tools. I actually quite like the idea that Nerevarine might just as well be a random guy, who got discovered by Emperor who had a thing for esoteric prophecies and stuff. He gets send to Morrowind and after he joins the Blades he can't really leave, or he would be tracked and executed for desertion. So he kinda goes along with what is happening and after he gets infected by Corprus his only hope was Divayth Fyr. He uses a special potion which helps him but kills everybody else. Did it work because only he was destined to drink it and survive, or maybe he was lucky/his body responded better due to his genetics or something like that (lol). Hero succeeds in his quest thanks to his skills, sheer determination and loads of luck.
That’s a great theory, it’s also kind of how I interpreted it the many times I played Morrowind. Because I can’t count the times I accidentally (or intentionally) killed a story character, proving that my character at that moment wasn’t actually the Nerevar.
@@SecretSickle89 There is also a secret back path. To know about it, player is required to read books on the matter and bring them over to someone who can read Dwemer language. It's interesting that you have to do your own research to accomplish the quest in alternate way. It makes Nerevarine Prophecies a set of guidelines how to get it done as smoothly as possible, but if you fail, you can just do it on your own. Unless you kill Yagrum for lolz then you are really screwed. Even then you can just use "CHIM" and use console command to get what you need (I also believe that CHIM = being aware you are in a video game so you start modding it).
Talking about the prophecy that the Nevererererekneen being unkillable and immune to illness...I'm mean, have you ever seen a player character die in a solo-hero RPG? Sure we have all died plenty of times playing elderscrolls, fallout, ect. But we always reload a save. Thus, at least in the main timeline no player character hero has EVER been defeated.
Hey, I've been following your channel for a while now. You even took one of my requests to heart! So, as I also been making lore videos lately (on my other channel, not gonna post it. Don't want to advertise). So I thought I might just ask you, "Can I assist you on one lore video? Like voicing, researching etc. etc."
Hi! I do not mind advertising, so post it all you like. I really like seeing other people's video's so feel free to post a link. As for your question, I do this channel as a hobby and if I do not have time to make video's I just don't. Mostly making these video's is kind of a rush. So I am not at all professional. But I am open to the idea, so contact me on steam if you still want to do some cooperation ^_^ Steam: steamcommunity.com/id/ElderLoreGuy/
Great work on the video! I really enjoyed it. Do you think you can do a video on CHIM and The Psijic Endeavor? Only two characters have been able to successfully reach the state of CHIM but I think it could make for an interesting topic to talk about.
Something I don’t get, is if the Dweamer couldn’t use the power of the heart without not only their destruction but the loss of their entire race, how did the tribunal ? They had only just learnt about it too, compared that to the Dweamer who were so learned and advanced.
I would really like is Sheogorath, Neravarine and Dovakin met at the same place. We need a spinoff about that, would be good if eternal champion and agent were included too.
It should happen in the Elder Scrolls 6, the Last Dragonborn meets the Hero of Kvatch in his Imperial form in the Divine Crusader Armor, then he and the Hero of Kvatch meet the Nerevarine in Akavir and the three heroes meet the Talin the Eternal Champion and the Hero of Daggerfall along with the Protagonist of the Elder Scrolls VI.
i am still confused. azura cursed the tribunal for their treachery and we are that curse, so why is our objective to kill dagoth ur (who was a good friend of nerevar and attempted to avenge his death) instead of the tribunal (who backstabbed nerevar)?
This is a bit late but, The Sixth Trial of The Nerevarine Prophecy refers to The Nerevarine coming into conflict with Dagoth Ur and his Sixth House. Also, The Seventh Trial is about The Nerevarine getting rid of The Tribunal's power (which is done by destroying The Heart of Lorkhan). Also ,I believe that the reason Azura still wants Dagoth Ur out of the picture is because she still cares about the Dunmer people and wants them to thank her for saving them from him.
This really is me looking at things from a Roleplaying perspective, but it's a video idea...What is common knowledge? What does the average inhabitant of Morrowind know about the Nevarine and the Daggoth Ur Situation? What does the average Imperial know of the Imperial Simulacrum (A fair amount I imagine, since I recall the Newspaper in Oblivion actually talking about it.)?
Considering all the conflicting reports of what happened at the second Battle of Red Mountain, probably due to the Dragon Break caused by the manipulation of the Heart of Lorkhan by both Dagoth Ur and the Tribunal, you should probably include a section explaining alternative explanations.
Indoril Nerevar killed Dagoth. Dagoth didn't properly die, but instead dreamt about reality, putting Dagoth Ur into Mundus. Because Dagoth dreamt about reality, he thaught he was the godhead. That's why he is referred to as the "false dreamer" and also why he claimed to be a god.
IMPORTANT You didn't destroy Lorkhan's heart, it's not possible, not even with tools of tonal architecture, besides it would probably destroy Nirn itself. As Azura said it, you in fact freed the heart! As it was trapped under the Red Tower/Red Mountain and in the Akulakhan. And maybe you banished it to another plane or it returned to Lorkhan/Shor.
Can someone tell me what the armor and the weapon with which the nerevarine is represented un the thumbnail and what type are they? armor (heavy, medium, light)
I have morrowind for the original xbox but I never got past the third quest because the game combat system I could hit the enemies only 1 out of 20 even though I am a experienced elderscrolls lore master and I completely 100% of both oblivion and skyrim I hope there is a mod to fix the combat system.
There's a mod to fix it. MEN: Oblivion-Like Combat Mod: Makes the combat similar to Oblivion; both you and enemies have 100% hit chance and magicka regenerates slowly: www.reddit.com/r/Morrowind/comments/6hssd1/men_combat_mod_removed/
Gotta say dude this whole " I can't hit my enemy" stuff is pretty ridiculous,especially considering I've literally have had all characters (take one) do just fine with melee. People over-exaggerate the crap out of it and act like it's this game changing ordeal that no one has answers to,when back here in reality it is one of the most simple things to understand. Pick a race that specializes in whatever weapon type, pick the weapon type's governing attribute,then pick the weapon. Now in no way shape or form am I saying the combat system shouldn't be updated , however I am saying that it's not bad but rather you're used to skyrim and oblivion who got rid of this as the series got older so now obviously it's gonna be outdated and labeled "Bad" because people aren't used to the dice roll mechanic . People make It so much more than it actually is and straight up give up on the masterpiece and that is ridiculous.
elder scrolls 6 will be the nerevarines return to tameriel to restore order to the empire with the dragon born resisting him both claiming the ruby throne and their battle taking place in high rock with some breton prophesy and fate and destiny going on
I'm confused People are saying the Nerevar died from his wounds in battle But others are saying the Tribunal killed Nerevar... Which one is the true reason of Nerevar's death?
faffing about Ok. I am sure he was backstabbed by his advisors. Then they almost killed ur and left him to die. He survived and slowly became insane. Thats how i think it was.
Heartig Dagoth Ur infused his will with the heart and as long as the heart existed he existed. So when the Nerevarine destroyed the heart he ended Dagoth Ur forever.
I’m here bc if the Dragonborn DLC. Definitely going to buy+play Morrowind. Instead of Dawnguard I wish they gave us something that would make us buy Oblivion. Better marketing lol
Wow. I love Morrowind, but when i played i didnt understand english that much. And never really understand the False Gods, instead my char in ESO its faithfull to then and Azura lol Well, know what? I guess my char love Azura the most so time to add some more to her (my char) backgorund history or maybe ESO its in another universe...idk. Thank you!
Vivect went to the future to turn into a woman and marry a dark elf that would destroy the neumedium using a comic style talk bubble. Duh! (Imcase any of you think this is to absurd to be true its acually a story written by tye guy who wrote a lot of morrowinds story, its called c0da, and its storyline is entirley like eating cubensy mushrooms and dancing in the woods alone lol)

Theres literally graphics mods that makes Morrowind look like Skyrim.
i think its more cause stupid combat system that i hate so much but there is some mods that change combat style in morrowind

The one reason that Morrowind is not the best game ever, its because one does not simply cope with the combat system.
The reasons for it being are...all the rest.
The combat is fine if you know how to play.
You for got to mention Dagoth Ur wanted the tools destroyed before he was corrupted.
I like this video especially because I just started playing Morrowind recently.

It is officially canon that the Nerevarine did not kill Vivec
Lord Vivec achieved Chim. He literally manifested out of existence of the boundaries of what we call the elder scrolls.
I wish that Bethesda would update the graphics for Morrowind. I absolutely love this game!
As someone how didn't like Morrowind back in the day and only replayed it after Oblivion and Skyrim, I nowadays appreciate it the most and especially the Nerevarine and its lore
3:57 "Somehow, Dagoth Ur Returned."
You know what this sentence means? if The Elder Scrolls Morrowind ever manages to get a bigscreen adaptation, and it turns out shit, we will not be able to complain.
I have you considered doing any elder scrolls playthroughs on UA-cam, I would really enjoy that
I tried in dutch once. But I get quiet a lot and stopped after ep 3 because well... it was just not that good haha. Maybe I will one day do loreplay, that I play skyrim and do loretalk while doing it.
Ive been interested in this stuff since the Moon and Star quest mod for Skyrim. If you see this comment and dont have then get it because it is fun!
Woot woot morrowind, just became head of the fighters guild, by purging the comona tong
Marrowind is gangster. Idc what anyones says. Its also funny as heck. I mean about 15 mins in after leaving Sayda Neen if you go down the northern path I believe, a dork of a wizard falls out of the sky and dies right in front of you and you can take his shit, its so random. Many other things like this make the game so fun. If they remastered it to have Skyrim level graphics(But Same character design of Marrowind) & fast travel more people would probably play it. Only the real ones know about ashlanding it with no fast travel.
I liked that the storyline was also quite vague at the same time. It's not really 100% we are literally Nerevar reborn, or just somebody who "mantled" Nerevar by accomplishing similar feats to him and thus fitting into Nerevarine prophecy. There were previous failed incarnates and Azura would probably keep trying until it worked out, unless Dagoth Ur would manage to capture Kagrenac's tools. I actually quite like the idea that Nerevarine might just as well be a random guy, who got discovered by Emperor who had a thing for esoteric prophecies and stuff. He gets send to Morrowind and after he joins the Blades he can't really leave, or he would be tracked and executed for desertion. So he kinda goes along with what is happening and after he gets infected by Corprus his only hope was Divayth Fyr. He uses a special potion which helps him but kills everybody else. Did it work because only he was destined to drink it and survive, or maybe he was lucky/his body responded better due to his genetics or something like that (lol). Hero succeeds in his quest thanks to his skills, sheer determination and loads of luck.
That’s a great theory, it’s also kind of how I interpreted it the many times I played Morrowind. Because I can’t count the times I accidentally (or intentionally) killed a story character, proving that my character at that moment wasn’t actually the Nerevar.
@@SecretSickle89 There is also a secret back path. To know about it, player is required to read books on the matter and bring them over to someone who can read Dwemer language. It's interesting that you have to do your own research to accomplish the quest in alternate way. It makes Nerevarine Prophecies a set of guidelines how to get it done as smoothly as possible, but if you fail, you can just do it on your own. Unless you kill Yagrum for lolz then you are really screwed. Even then you can just use "CHIM" and use console command to get what you need (I also believe that CHIM = being aware you are in a video game so you start modding it).
Or what I believe which is that mighty Vivec achieved chim and then disappeared on his own accord.
Could you talk about the idea that the Hero of each game is blessed by the nine?
Noob101 Will add it to my to do list
Look up Shezzarines.
Eight* Talos isn't a god "check your privilege".
SuperMasterJuice Ehm, yes he is. Only a lore ignorant would think otherwise.
Noob101 you mean the 8
Can you do lore on Pyandonea and the Maormer?
Harambe added it to my to do list :)
Talking about the prophecy that the Nevererererekneen being unkillable and immune to illness...I'm mean, have you ever seen a player character die in a solo-hero RPG?
Sure we have all died plenty of times playing elderscrolls, fallout, ect. But we always reload a save. Thus, at least in the main timeline no player character hero has EVER been defeated.
This game was so good i miss it so much
I like how Morrowind and Oblivion have Azura be important to the plot
Hey, I've been following your channel for a while now. You even took one of my requests to heart! So, as I also been making lore videos lately (on my other channel, not gonna post it. Don't want to advertise). So I thought I might just ask you, "Can I assist you on one lore video? Like voicing, researching etc. etc."
Hi! I do not mind advertising, so post it all you like. I really like seeing other people's video's so feel free to post a link.
As for your question, I do this channel as a hobby and if I do not have time to make video's I just don't. Mostly making these video's is kind of a rush. So I am not at all professional. But I am open to the idea, so contact me on steam if you still want to do some cooperation ^_^
Steam: steamcommunity.com/id/ElderLoreGuy/
Great work on the video! I really enjoyed it. Do you think you can do a video on CHIM and The Psijic Endeavor? Only two characters have been able to successfully reach the state of CHIM but I think it could make for an interesting topic to talk about.
Jurbles Added it to my to do list
Is it okay to do the Bloodmoone DLC first? Or I messed up
Something I don’t get, is if the Dweamer couldn’t use the power of the heart without not only their destruction but the loss of their entire race, how did the tribunal ? They had only just learnt about it too, compared that to the Dweamer who were so learned and advanced.
I would really like is Sheogorath, Neravarine and Dovakin met at the same place.
We need a spinoff about that, would be good if eternal champion and agent were included too.
Bruh, that's like an Avengers elder scrolls.
The Dragonborn actually met The Hero of Kvatch/Sheogorath and heard of The Neravarine in The Dragonborn DLC.
It should happen in the Elder Scrolls 6, the Last Dragonborn meets the Hero of Kvatch in his Imperial form in the Divine Crusader Armor, then he and the Hero of Kvatch meet the Nerevarine in Akavir and the three heroes meet the Talin the Eternal Champion and the Hero of Daggerfall along with the Protagonist of the Elder Scrolls VI.
Screw the Eternal Champion and the Hero of Daggerfall am I right?
@@TheFlick175 Why?
i am still confused. azura cursed the tribunal for their treachery and we are that curse, so why is our objective to kill dagoth ur (who was a good friend of nerevar and attempted to avenge his death) instead of the tribunal (who backstabbed nerevar)?
This is a bit late but, The Sixth Trial of The Nerevarine Prophecy refers to The Nerevarine coming into conflict with Dagoth Ur and his Sixth House. Also, The Seventh Trial is about The Nerevarine getting rid of The Tribunal's power (which is done by destroying The Heart of Lorkhan).
Also ,I believe that the reason Azura still wants Dagoth Ur out of the picture is because she still cares about the Dunmer people and wants them to thank her for saving them from him.
Really cool video, thanks man
This really is me looking at things from a Roleplaying perspective, but it's a video idea...What is common knowledge? What does the average inhabitant of Morrowind know about the Nevarine and the Daggoth Ur Situation? What does the average Imperial know of the Imperial Simulacrum (A fair amount I imagine, since I recall the Newspaper in Oblivion actually talking about it.)?
Considering all the conflicting reports of what happened at the second Battle of Red Mountain, probably due to the Dragon Break caused by the manipulation of the Heart of Lorkhan by both Dagoth Ur and the Tribunal, you should probably include a section explaining alternative explanations.
Is Morrowind back word compatible on Xbox 1
Yes
love your videos. keep it up
So if nerevar left theres a whole new game opportunity and a new continent
How can you be certain that the tribunal assassinated Nerevar tho? Couldn't he have just as easily died from the wounds of Dagoth Ur?
Trial of Azura
what’s that music at 13:00?
This is a little late but it is the epic version of the morrowind theme I think
Morrowind is one of my favourite games
i grew up with the elder scrolls i grew with the games played morrowind when i was about 7 than oblivion at 11 than skyrim at 17
I have come here to learn this knowledge for I cannot play the game because I can't find it
Which track plays at the beginning(intro)?
Indoril Nerevar killed Dagoth. Dagoth didn't properly die, but instead dreamt about reality, putting Dagoth Ur into Mundus. Because Dagoth dreamt about reality, he thaught he was the godhead. That's why he is referred to as the "false dreamer" and also why he claimed to be a god.
He sounds like a Nord with a thick accent.
What is the name of the godhead?
IMPORTANT You didn't destroy Lorkhan's heart, it's not possible, not even with tools of tonal architecture, besides it would probably destroy Nirn itself.
As Azura said it, you in fact freed the heart! As it was trapped under the Red Tower/Red Mountain and in the Akulakhan.
And maybe you banished it to another plane or it returned to Lorkhan/Shor.
Just to let you know if you had any doubts, it's pronounced either "here-seen" or "her-seen."
This guy sounds like Farengar from Skyrim.
Can someone tell me what the armor and the weapon with which the nerevarine is represented un the thumbnail and what type are they? armor (heavy, medium, light)
Tribuuunul?
I spent so much time on this game
Same
Good video thanks for making it :)
I knnoow you didn't call the Skaal a cult.
help! i'm leg disabled for 9 years!
Nice vid, btw are you Dutch
Misschien
I have morrowind for the original xbox but I never got past the third quest because the game combat system I could hit the enemies only 1 out of 20 even though I am a experienced elderscrolls lore master and I completely 100% of both oblivion and skyrim I hope there is a mod to fix the combat system.
Arkham knight
You should complete Morrowind at least once
If you build your character effectively weapons will hit more often.
There's a mod to fix it. MEN: Oblivion-Like Combat Mod: Makes the combat similar to Oblivion; both you and enemies have 100% hit chance and magicka regenerates slowly: www.reddit.com/r/Morrowind/comments/6hssd1/men_combat_mod_removed/
Prince Sheogorath if i did that i would be as drunk as you
Gotta say dude this whole " I can't hit my enemy" stuff is pretty ridiculous,especially considering I've literally have had all characters (take one) do just fine with melee. People over-exaggerate the crap out of it and act like it's this game changing ordeal that no one has answers to,when back here in reality it is one of the most simple things to understand. Pick a race that specializes in whatever weapon type, pick the weapon type's governing attribute,then pick the weapon. Now in no way shape or form am I saying the combat system shouldn't be updated , however I am saying that it's not bad but rather you're used to skyrim and oblivion who got rid of this as the series got older so now obviously it's gonna be outdated and labeled "Bad" because people aren't used to the dice roll mechanic . People make It so much more than it actually is and straight up give up on the masterpiece and that is ridiculous.
It saddens me they never turned the eye of argonia idea into a morrowind dlc akin to bloodmoon.
Shame on you sweet Nerevar.
Great video brother
Not assassinated.
Banished.
Hundreds of years? Don't you mean thousands of years. Nerevar died before the first era or in the first era. The nerevarine is born in the third era.
You said indoril nerevarine wrong.
i enjoyed it
Great!
i like you videos
btw are you dutch ?
didox ik denk het, aan zijn accent te horen
Misschien
Imperial Knowledge Haha 👍
I don’t think Vivic is dead
Are you dutch ?
I might be. Why?
I just think that you have a funny accent
I reaaaallly want to lose it because it is terrible for video's xD
No
I like very much your videos
Your lore had some flaws and gaps, but other than that, this was a really good video. Keep up the good work ^-^
It is just a quick video. There is much more to say about the topic but I like to keep my video's under 20 minutes so I did what I could ^_^
elder scrolls 6 will be the nerevarines return to tameriel to restore order to the empire with the dragon born resisting him both claiming the ruby throne and their battle taking place in high rock with some breton prophesy and fate and destiny going on
The worst story ever .
I'm confused
People are saying the Nerevar died from his wounds in battle
But others are saying the Tribunal killed Nerevar...
Which one is the true reason of Nerevar's death?
Shizoni..D it's never confirmed either way
faffing about
Ok. I am sure he was backstabbed by his advisors. Then they almost killed ur and left him to die. He survived and slowly became insane. Thats how i think it was.
Heartig Dagoth Ur infused his will with the heart and as long as the heart existed he existed. So when the Nerevarine destroyed the heart he ended Dagoth Ur forever.
great video!
in my opinion morrowind is the best elder scrolls game
Ome k gaming Morrowind is the best but Skyrim is the most famous outside of the TES community
Hands down Skyrim is better. The combat system in Morrow is is a joke.
combat is downgraded mechanically in skyrim LOL, if you are comparing it to morrowind
Nah Skyrim number 1
I’m here bc if the Dragonborn DLC. Definitely going to buy+play Morrowind. Instead of Dawnguard I wish they gave us something that would make us buy Oblivion. Better marketing lol
Nice vid but I think Chimer is pronounced like, "Khy-mer".
Not like, "Chim-mer"
Wow. I love Morrowind, but when i played i didnt understand english that much. And never really understand the False Gods, instead my char in ESO its faithfull to then and Azura lol Well, know what? I guess my char love Azura the most so time to add some more to her (my char) backgorund history or maybe ESO its in another universe...idk. Thank you!
DOES THE NARRATOR HAVE A HUNGARIAN ACCENT?
👍👍👍👍👍👍
Vivect went to the future to turn into a woman and marry a dark elf that would destroy the neumedium using a comic style talk bubble.
Duh!
(Imcase any of you think this is to absurd to be true its acually a story written by tye guy who wrote a lot of morrowinds story, its called c0da, and its storyline is entirley like eating cubensy mushrooms and dancing in the woods alone lol)
TAKE A DRINK EVERYTIME HE SAYS "NEREBARINE"
Morrowind is the best
It’s pronounced ky-mer not chimer
