"Look at the ships interior how detailed."
*I can't see anything*
rest was very nice tho really
same here. Its pitch black inside the ship.
I was about to comment with the same thing.
I was wondering the same thing, then it dawned to me: we are inside an unlit, unwindowed ship. It's an immersion thing, when you think.
why? xD ''lets change how the uploader wanted their video just because we want it darker''
I think it's more of a compression thing, it's not UA-cam literally hitting a switch saying "fuck you, your video is pitch black now xDDDD"
The original graphics are quite good, I kinda like them. But holy hell those mods look good!
Yeah, looking at this video I remembered how impressed I was when i first got this game when it came out and played in on the original x-box. It looks old now but totally playable. I'm going to go get the steam version right now.
Great idea, I got 50 hours in it on steam, and I haven't even gotten far. (It's really an amazing game)
I feel like the original grafic, though dated, are a style of their own. i also really like them, it gives that old school dungeon crawler style. the new grafics are amazing as well, of course!
In 2001 Bethesda was ahead of everyone else. Now they are behind in just about everything when it comes to games like this.
Yeah! I don't know what happend, Fallout 4 looks like morrowwind just details are improved weirdly enough
A few things to check out. Morrowind S.T.E.P. (better than mgso in terms of graphics) and OpenMW and what is possible with it's graphics, not to mention how much better it runs.
Morrowind will never die, as each year people will release mods to update it, to rebuild it, to bring it to modern gamers. Wheather it's Skywind (Morrowind in Skyrim), OpenMW (a new engine for Morrowind), or a graphical overhaul and engine patcher, Morrowind will always have something to keep it alive, and that goes to show you the level of love people have for this game!
Why can't I find any gameplay with S.T.E.P.?
Not sure honestly. If my pc could run that, I would have it up. I have found very little in way of recent Morrowind updates, which is odd. You should also look into Morrowind Normal mapped for OpenMW. It looks amazing!
Lingering Trees Yeah, I've modded mine with mgso, and looked at the screenshots for S.T.E.P., but I'd love to actually see some gameplay. I suppose I'll have to install it myself to see. OpenMW looks like a great project, but I don't see it being too helpful on it's own. It'll need compatible mods etc. to compare to the official engine.
It has a few mods now, and many modders are working on going over to the new engine it offers. So far there aren't many texture mods made for OpenMW only, but most graphics mods should work anyway, and the new engine should run better with them. Barring any bugs the new release may have created. Fix one bug, make many more in the process.
It's an amazing show of dedication by the community for the game. If you're not interested yet then MGSO and S.T.E.P. are the way to go! I was actually thinking of doing a Morrowind S.T.E.P. install for openMW and putting it on my channel... I just need some time away from work to do that, lol.
If you do install it, would you be able to upload some footage of it? I'd love to see it!
Lingering Trees Thats a pretty big if. I've got an mgso install cirrently, so it'll require a backup and reinstall. And despite me being able to rin games like Skyrim fine on my old ass PC, mgso runs like shit. If I get decent frames in STEP I'll definitely post something. However it's unlikely.
"There are some long loading times but what are you going to do?"
Buy an SSD
I think to some level the modders just need to finetune the optimization to demand less, but I cannot deny what they have done is easily worth it for the patient.
Oh yeah....
I can remember the cell test "cheat". It took about 8 hours on my initial Morrowind PC, dropped to two or something later and when I tried it the last time on my now old Intel Postville SSD on SATA2 it was only a couple minutes since every loading screen took
.......a super star destroyer?
Jeffrey F, I guess you’ve never heavily modded Skyrim before then. In some cases, if you don’t run it on an SSD, you’ll get crash-to-desktops because the game can’t load assets quick enough.
Buy a SSD*
If you don't count the character models, this looks pretty close to oblivion to be honest :D
Syndera Oblivion is slowly becoming dated
it looks better imo
You can download Morroblivion if you want it to be exactly like Oblivion.
Dan iel slowly? Ha.
In its dreams
Am I the only person who actually likes the old graphics? Beyond the nostalgia and charm, things just arent anywhere near as cluttered and overgrown. Also I dont understand why "Better Graphics" means we have to make interiors darker. Sure it may be realistic but it makes it harder to see (Halo 2 Anniversary did this too). Oh well, to each their own, enjoy the graphics mods if you need them. Great thing about mods is that they are all optional and thanks to this fantastic community there is no shortage of non graphics mods to play with as well
Yeah but when you have 30,000+ hours in this game, the graphics start to get a little bit stale.
This modlist is bad imo. Look at the performance and clutter. If you want a guide that just make the graphcis higher resolution and the game more stable check mgg morrowind on google. Easy to follow guide, lightweight.
For everyone interested - the game is currently on sale on Good old Games.
Its really amazing how good this looks with mods! You'd never think that this is a 15 year old game - and Jeremy Soul's soundtrack is still amazing.
The before and after look of the graphics is AMAZING, brings back memories, that was my favorite game on the original Xbox
Makes me want to go back to this game, one of the classics of my youth.
Even though it's cool and all, graphics don't matter if it's one of the best games ever
The signs not having words on them was inexcusable, even for 2002! These new mods look gorgeous though, great video!
It looks like Morrowind Rebirth shifted the ground so the grass you loaded in with MGSO is floating.
Yeah, that's exactly what happened
This is incredible. Never played Morrowind, but now when I see how beautiful it can be, I prbbly will.
it's nice but the vanilla graphics hold a certain nostalgia for me, I prefer the old in this case
Me too. And signs were written in Dunmer language, so I don't mind at all that I have to "hover my cursor at them" to read where I'm actially going, because it's Vvardenfell, Dunmers' land. And fluid gameplay is more important than HD graphics. No hickups, no floating flora. That's my opinion. The only way I've upgraded my Morrowind was a patch that unlocked 16:9/16:10 proportions and resolutions.
starfire nostalgia is pretty much what we all are. I totally agree. spent more time trying to get the mods to feel right than I ever did playing the game. also any Bethesda game I've ever modded made me go into debug mode "in my brain at least" and wander around screwing off instead of trying to enjoy the experience and finish the game.
Just don't install the mod that has floating flora????
starfire I feel the same way after using MGSO V3.0 and Morrowind Rebirth (which both of them didn't completely fixed 2 game breaking glitches other than pickpocketing percentage, so congrats on that, which I didn't know about it). Which in MGSO (maybe MR as well) they've gotten a few armour wrong, like bloodmoon Nordic mail pauldrons goes to the neck of the character and NPCs. Even with Ordinator's helmet texture looked like some sort of internet meme (messed up faceplate on the helmet). Also Lords Mail looked worse than the vanilla.
I was actually hoping for modders to make an HD remake (even throw in lore friendly content even a bit of new as well). All I can see is that they just hit and miss. Although the unofficial patch did worked out as intended.
Fun fact: Warewolves in bloodmoon expansion pack were being used by Argonian male models (tweaked). Edit: Morrowind's Warewolves.
Am I the only one who preferred the old graphics? Everything looked so grey (or red) and melancholic. The soundtrack fits that perfectly.
I remember when i first played, MORROWIND years back, i fell in love! I loved the ambience, the music, the marshes and desolate flat lands, the ASH storms...everything about it was perfect to me! Years later i played it with mods such as these. I like it, so as long as i keep that original feeling that only, MORROWIND can bring.
Sky-morro-blivion.
Sky- for the graphics and better combat system
Morro- for the awesome quests and storylines
blivion- also for the awesome quests and storylines.
billyjean1073 there is skywind and skyblivion in the works, so just install both
Prefer morrowind combat.
3:32 This is a different game. Another world. I can not believe it. Incredible.
I admire the people who did, such a wonderful change with the game. They breathed new life into it.
I've never played Morrowind, but now I will definitely do it.
Back in 2002 that shit was amazing. I remember every game that made me go 'whoa...' and Morrowind was one of those.
For morrowind being old you gotta say it was very revolutionary for the time especially those water graphics
I prefer the original graphics.
IncultaWolf that is not a matter of opinion bc the og graphich are way worse.
No
IncultaWolf you are very dense if you cant seperate fact from opinion
Patrik Radelj He didn't say the original graphics are better, he said he prefers them. That is his opinion. You, sir, are a dumbass.
Fishstyx that is not a matter of opinion the mods are objectevly better
Honestly the only thing that gives away nodded Morrowind's age would be the animation quality.
The latter halfof the video is "how we remember games" and the former half is "how they actually are" I remember watching my dad play hitman 2 when I was a kid and my tiny 5 year old mind was blown I then got to play the game for my self some years later and it still holds the same fondness in my heart. Then I played the new hitman and my brain instinctually went "yeah it's pretty but how does it compare to 2" as most people did with skyrim "yeah it's pretty and it has dragons but how does it compare to morrowinv"
Morrowind was a great game for the time it was in. I absolutely loved this game, and the graphics never really bothered me.
"For the time" either it was always good, or it was never good.
+Sirinterweb That isn't how that works at all. A game can easily be good for its time and then be outclassed in the future. That ultimatum you gave makes no sense at all
jiub looks terrifying now... first thing I noticed
Good to see morrowind is still alive. AWESOME GAME!!!
thank you for helping me decide to buy morrowind again and start playing
This is so nostalgic for me going to need go back to it soon
The problem I had playing with Morrowind always was that the fog makes it look so... condensed. It didn't look like a world to me. With the overall, it actually feels open. : )
"look at the ships interior" the screens basically black u gnome
damn this looks fresh. i wish i had the time to jump back into this game. its in my top 10 greatest games ever made.
Funny how I remember those places in game after so many years. Always loved that lighthouse at Syda Neen and how the water looked. I think mine at the time looked like quicksilver with a mod but it was rippling as I walked lol.
The biggest problem with morrowind is the absolutely broken character progression system.
some call it broken,others do not.
LoonyyyWSMN but its actual progression, unlike say fallout 4 and it's 20% more damage for levelling up
It is not broken if it was intentionally designed that way. Don't spread lies.
LoonyyyWSMN
It has balancing problems and crafting (alchemy & enchanting) can be abused that's right, but otherwise it's a pure RPG with pure RPG mechanics, the dice roll is linked to your skill, if you're bad with swords you'll miss, makes perfect sense, in some way it's even more realistic than newer game mechanics, have tried hitting a rat with anything? Could you hit an experienced swordsman? This was time where games have the balls to not accomodate the player, you start weak, puny and incapable but you grow stronger throughout the game and that was satisfying.
That just means it was designed in such a way that the result was broken.
I wasnt expecting much but holy shit, thats amazing
for whoever its worth, while mods are fun and im not discouraging using them, there is nothing like the original morrowind experience
"Still highly playable btw" - minecraft players.
The remaster we needed but couldn't get
Sadly, I did everything on morrowind... Everything. I played since it went out back in those days... Did hundreds characters, did almost all the secondary quests...
I think I cannot come back in it now. I have full memory of all the places I went :(
Do older games become "unplayable" with age because muh graphicks? That seems a bit douchey to me.
Shoregrey for some people, yeah. I'm guilty of it myself, as much as I love the FF series I can't go back and play 6 because of the graphics, but I can play similar looking games because I played them back then and have nostalgia for them.
You can't play 6? It's the best game in the series.
Morrowind combat is quite possibly the worst of all the other games
I guess only to the new generation of gamers and graphics whores. I was around to play some 94-95 PC games so nowadays maybe that's why I don't really have a problem with playing old games. Especially because old games relied way more on other things to make the experience more immersive since they couldn't do much graphic wise because of technical limitations of the time. People today need to invest themselves in graphics because devs are dropping the ball on pretty much all other aspects that helps to make game immersive as well. It's not only graphics. It never was about that.
Shoregrey yeah it's a damn shame because I've heard how good it is :/ but I don't force myself to play games and I just can't get into it
might actually give this a try. i've already player both oblivion and skyrim, and the only thing that has been stopping me from playing previous titles are just the graphics, but this seems pretty decent
I really need to play Morrowind again. Only ever played it on X-Box and I now have a decent PC.
I loved morrowind and haven't touched it yet even tho I've wanted to play it again with these new mods. I'm going to save it until the next Elder Scrolls release and pray Skywind gets done by then.
yeah i hafta admit i would play morrowind again if i had those mods! good stuff
Morrowind deserves a full HD remake
Alot of room for improvement in that mod line up.
Morrowind is one of those first games where water without shaders looked better. Ah GeForce 2 era
I wish Oblivion and Morrowind would get the remaster treatment but mods work for now.
Once we saw what the modded exterior of the ship looked like, I immediately began thinking of Runescape. THAT is exactly how I imagined an HD runescape would look. A bit unfortunate that the product that ended up coming out was really cartoony/disneylike.
The problem with names on posts are most written things in outer world of morrowind is written in daedric alphabet
this looks more photorealistic than oblivion did
Honestly, Morrowind is arguably the best in the series, and I think Bethesda agrees with that, so they need to make a remake of the game someday.
Holy crap they fixed teh walk animations for the characters, they no longer look like they are taking a massive shit
Feels like watching a Turok 64 HD remaster
Makes it look better, but also makes it look like an indie game
Honestly if they mod only increased render distance it would still be perfect
The sign posts always had names on them. They were barely readable, but they were there.
Wow, this is a labor of love.
Morrowind is the number 1 game I've sunk a majority of my teen years into. Hours upon hours upon years lol. Games these days, maybe it's I'm just getting old for it I dunno but. I put a few hours into it and get bored.
I think there was something special you needed to do for the vegetation...can't remember what, but I'm pretty sure it's in the readme for MGSO.
Out of all three new age elder scroll I still think morrowind is the best even with the aged graphics.
This is awesome. A sure money maker if rereleased on consoles.
This makes me want to play Morrowind again. I did notice, when you left Seyda Neen, some stuff was clipping in and out of existence up on the hills. Was that a mod issue or does it happen in vanilla and I just don't remember it?
Why walk when you can ride?
"Haha, but look at those loading times ;) ... OMG! Those graphics! Never mind!".
my mind is blown... i'm holding my eye while typing this because i don't have head anymore
it looks better than vanilla oblivion, I am very impressed
now i really wanna play it!
I must say I tried to play Oblivion but it didn't had that something. Skyrim was awesome. Heard from friends that Morrowind is very frustrating, you can get lost very easy etc. But I must say, with these mods I think I may give it a shot. And the water looks like in modern games, that's awesome.
Hello RickJoystick, Great Video! what about Skywind? I would be lying if, in my opinion, I say that Morrowing is the best RPG i've ever played, the best and most distinctive lore of all the serie. But what would you suggest : play those mods, or Skywind?
The mod made it look like Oblivion graphics, thats cool
Am I the only one who likes the original morrowind graphics vs modded?
i wish i could like this more than once
Mods made it look like you're in some kind of weird jungle and it doesn't look nor feel like Vvardenfell at all but each to their own somebody prefers graphics, I prefer lore. Textures are nice though they certainly did a good job at those.
but the biggest problem in morrowind honestly is the combat system, if that can change, then jesus christ this is the holy grail
I would actually play morrowind with these graphic mods
The mods are certainly pretty, but nothing seems to have been done about the animations. So really the improved visuals just enhance the stiff cardboard cutout walking and idle animations, Looks creepy.
I played Morrowind allot back on the original Xbox. It was so innovative at that time, and just plain fun.
Fast forward to many years later as I tried it on PC, and it hust did not age well. The system was outdated, a sorta dice roll system or hit detection was the biggest outdated system in my eyes.
Morrowind has an awesome immersive story. But gameplay just doesn't stack up to today's standards. So seeing different mods, and overhaul projects to bring it to a more modern standard, it's exciting.
I kind of feel like this is unnecessary. It's like putting a Van Gogh or a Da Vinci through a Photoshop filter to 'clean it up' because it looks kind of old. Morrowind was a masterpiece *for its time*, and has its own charm to it, glitchy polygons and all. If you want a Morrowind that looks super fancy and new, try Skywind.
oh my god - that reveal on deck was ...oh my god
the old morrow wind without any mods on a ps2 with a shitty tv looks better than all Nintendo games to date
it's like a diffrent game. This is awsome :D
To be honest I really like graphics like ps1 and stuff and morrowinds graphics are really cool to me
oh wow, your voice is really really good
Wow...just wow....Hail Modders!!!
Finally a game my pc can run with mods
The difference in graphics is amazing. Not much can be done to the dated level design, though.
The heavily modded morrowind looks like the vanilla skyrim
hehe, I remember somehow being able to jump off that bridge from the boat and was able to run around without being a character. I got scared I would break the game so I restarted. Kind of wish I went into third person and mucked around some more.
And the most noticable difference, the walking animation lmfao 😂😂😂
Last of the true PC Elder Scrolls...
It takes Morrowind from 2002 to 2010 but surely not 2017
Nice video of the overhauls. Why am I hearing a little Swedish accent in your voice?
Yeah that looks a lot better. I don't have the nostalgia value for Morrowind because I was too young to play it when it came out. I have wanted to play, but the graphics are just too old for me. These mods make it look like something I could actually play and enjoy properly.
When you realize that Bethesda animations didnt change from time of Morrowind :D
Thank you for this! Time to reinstall Morrowind :)
Like night and day that looks awesome I'll have to buy the game again.
Let them do the Gothic 1 and 2 in such textures. COOLL!!
If oblivion was before morrowind
I'm trying to emulate your setup but I get conflicts between the mods and the tools designed to fix those are so old they're hard to get hold of. Could you do a "modding of" video to help those of us who admire your setup?
The original graphics aren't actually that bad. Thought you were showing modded ones at the start, and that it was just difficult to texture or something.
I'm not gonna play Morrowind anymore now..
