Nerevarine is a lizard

Basically if you lose your face before you die, you can reincarnate as any race. That's why Sotha Sil flayed Nerevar's face.

Okay so if he could be anything why would he be a race that can't even wear boots?

Are any of the new land mods any good?
Walking around big cities is cool and all but if there isn't entertaining quests to go along with it I'm not sure I'd care.

There's someone out there who thinks Arena is a better game than Daggerfall.

>>737152076
See this account always confused me, because if Sotha Sil cut off Nerevar's face (so he could be any race,) and Almalexia cut off his feet (so he could be a beast race,) and Vivec pierces him with his spear (giving him a metaphorical pussy so he can be any sex,) then doesn't that mean they 'betrayed' Nerevar in anticipation of the Nerevarine prophecy? Wouldn't that mean they were in on it the whole time? But while there's some evidence they were (Vivec in his Sermons addressing the Nerevarine directly,) if they were in on it then why would Almalexia go insane from paranoia and Sotha Sil let her kill him because of guilt, instead of explaining to you that her 'betrayal' was just so you can become the Neverarine and attain the enlightenment such a path allowed you?

He went to Akavir to get eaten by vampiric snakes.

>>737159242
this iconography is part of a post-hoc constructed myth regarding the nerevarine prophecy. what actually happened to nerevar and how he was killed is not known and probably cant be known, but i'd wager to say that when they killed nerevar, it was pretty unceremonious and just simply stabbed him to death. the removal of the face and feet are probably just symbolic constructions of the myth.

Seven years ago all these projects were basically dead

>>737158174
>>737157621
I've got little faith in them making Dres Lands interesting with their current design. Currently they only have four biomes planned. One is empty grass prairie. The second is treeless grass marsh. The third is coastal mud flats that are supposed to intentionally be as ugly and unappealing as possible. The fourth is the Arnessian Jungle, which will be pretty, but there's only a tiny strip in Morrowind and it's mostly going to be in Black Marsh. So where's the beauty and appeal in any of the other three?

>>737161215
>Seven years ago all these projects were basically dead
Kinda true, but that's when we got almas thirr and work on anvil started picking up in earnest
Now we're getting a second cyrodiil release since then, the fourth TR release since then, and skyrim is still hoping for just markarth sometime in the next year or two

Personally I'm guessing they're going to need to change the concepts to be prettier eventually to get exterior modelers to actually make something for them.

Oblivion's "actually there's no more strife and only four factions left in the entirety of the two countries all equally loyal to the empire so that you don't have to worry about anything happening there anymore" is what's lame
Oblivion's wholesale dumbing down of Cyrodiil still left it with more counties than that, and there's basically no point in depicting a culture in Morrowind if it has no complex political bullshit happening

>>737162069
The HRE was an abortion.
>>737162086
There can be strife between four kingdoms. Hell, the Warp in the West was only supposed to settle the issue in the Iliac Bay. Parts of High Rock not on it, like Shornhelm, Northpoint, Farrun and Evermore, could still be separate kingdoms too, and Skyrim invading and occupying Jehanna is from in-game lore.

Nobody is talking about Orsinium because even you acknowledged that the mod is making Gortwog's ending fully canon, unlike Wayrest or Daggerfall's.

Gortwog's ending happened in that he established Orsinium as a real place equal to the others, and would now be competing with Wayrest for political dominance of the area
The other endings did not happen in the sense that the entirety of the illiac bay outside of the initial holdings of those kingdoms were not completely leveled to the ground and replaced by giant empty scorched trench borders

You either don't get a stable framerate or you learn to live with it. Though OpenMW can run slightly better for some people.

>>737162960
The other endings did not happen in the sense that Daggerfall and Wayrest literally don't control any meaningful territory outside of their eponymous cities whatsoever. You keep ignoring that to claim "nah dude they totally claimed and conquered a bunch you just don't see it." They conquered and have shit fuck all, the map shows it.

>>737163267
Map gives them all independent faction symbols, showing they're faction capitals. Again, this is just trying to justify that retarded 'HRE' concept where they on-paper are their overlords but on the ground have zero power and their endings were literally irrelevant and not depicted in the mod in any form.

How well do places like Narsis and Old Ebonheart run for you guys? (Tamriel Rebuilt)

The whole "Roman tv super aesthetic" is a bit disappointing.

At least go real Roman aesthetic aka painted stuff

>>737163346
You're unironically mad at colors on a map, man
Is it really gonna kill you if Shalgora is a vassal state of Daggerfall allowed to have new armor assets or something instead of being structured like a Hlaalu city where the guy in charge is defined by the dialog topic as being one [faction rank] further down the corporate ladder from the guy in charge of the next city over

>>737163439
That looks gay though, why wouldn't people want fantasy cultures based loosely on real cultures to be idealized

>>737163439
Literally everyone knows that statues look way worse painted in flat matte colors with no illusion of depth or texture, nobody cares what the actual Romans did. Especially not when you're looking at Roman-Slavs in a coastal Savannah, and will soon reach Roman-Weeaboos in a jungle.

>>737163471
It's going to piss me off that they pick-and-choose which endings from the Warp in the West are canon based exclusively on who they show favoritism to, and directly downgraded Wayrest and Daggerfall's conquests to "idk they're like the HRE" for no justifiable reason. Though in practice maps are also useless if they don't show political realities, if these places are 'totally just client states bro' that should be depicted, does Narsis need a different color to tell you the culture isn't identical there to Balmora?

>>737163654
Still more interesting than Skyrim.

>>737163654
The endings of daggerfall were that each culture raped the other main ones out of existence to have sole political control of the iliac bay
That did not include sending troops into bumfuck nowhere to performatively "own" every settlement everywhere, despite those ones not being in the running for control of the iliac in the first place
What you're thinking of is lore that was introduced in Oblivion that was an excuse for them to not have to care about the area anymore, same as how Skyrim had Morrowind effectively wiped off the map

Morrowind modding is so lively it easily is a better game than porn-Skyrim ever could hope to be.
I see screenshots every week and wow. What's the best big mod for OpenMW? First run of Morrowind ever. I got it on a bundle years ago and never have played past the falling mage. What's a good and *fun* build for a noob? I've heard the magic system is unique and in depth. Is it worth exploring on a first run?

>>737150851

>>737163654
>does Narsis need a different color to tell you the culture isn't identical there to Balmora?
Narsis uses the same architecture and its culture is directly part of the same faction controlling Balmora, literally being part of the same organizational structure and even sharing family drama within the leadership.

>>737155525
Cool beans. How many more FPS does it need?

t. Never played it.

>>737163787
>The endings of daggerfall were that each culture raped the other main ones out of existence to have sole political control of the iliac bay
And the compromise there is that Daggerfall and Wayrest fucked over every smaller kingdom between themselves until meeting at an impossible contradiction in the middle where you run into some fucked up Numidum-blasted eternal battlefield, and on either side of it you now have the kingdoms of Daggerfall, and Wayrest. And of course, north of the Iliac Bay, the situation is as it was before in High Rock, since the events of Daggerfall only relate that far.
>That did not include sending troops into bumfuck nowhere to performatively "own" every settlement everywhere,
We're not talking about 'bumfuck nowhere', we're talking about major kingdoms like Anticlere, literally the fourth biggest power in the region, which for no justifiable reason whatsoever is allowed to continue existing.

Why is Bethesda not big enough to remake a few old ass games? Surely there are some departments who are not doing anything right now.

>>737164361
The problem with trying to use random podunksville generated towns no longer existing to justify how it's totally depicting Daggerfall and Wayrest's conquests is that their absence can just as easily be explained by the fact that Morrowind's scale is much smaller than Daggerfall's. Every single province has many, many towns and cities that theoretically exist but aren't depicted because of the scale, how are those 'hundreds of settlements' any different? Only because you told me, right? What about the principle of show, don't tell? And you show me by Anticlere, and any other Iliac Bay kingdom, no longer being independent and being one of Daggerfall or Wayrest's cities. If they aren't independent, then the map shouldn't be depicting them with territory, since they would no longer have any, it would all be Daggerfall or Wayrest's.

>>737164535

Explaining away the massive scale difference was half of the purpose of the warp in the west, aside from reconciling daggerfall's endings
That's why all the Oblivion lore describes it as having completely obliterated all the lesser kingdoms and all the land in between the main factions, who all have alliances with each other and the empire

>>737165139
The fact that you dislike how Oblivion did it doesn't change what I'm saying about the mod failing to depict (or plan to depict, really) an implementation of the Warp in the West involving Daggerfall and Wayrest's endings by making all the places they both set out to conquer still be independent. The scale difference is only relevant because you brought up the fact Anticlere isn't planned on having any of its many outlying towns in Daggerfall as proof that they got conquered or destroyed, when I'm telling you it would've been impossible to depict them in Morrowind anyway.

Unironically pretty cute. Post more.

>>737165298
It definitely could've been possible to depict Anticlere as being the third biggest kingdom in high rock, the reduced scale doesn't stop that from happening
And again, those endings were mutually exclusive and are directly about jockeying for influence with each other, not about random other territories
You might as well be mad about how the empire still exists despite being driven out by each of the other factions, or how high rock and hammerfell still exist instead of just being called "tamriel" as the empire dictated after they took over the bay

>>737165678
>And again, those endings were mutually exclusive and are directly about jockeying for influence with each other, not about random other territories
They were about controlling the Iliac Bay, how do they control it when all the other little microstates in the region they planned to conquer still exist? Of course they're mutually exclusive, which is why you need to have some kind of compromise if you plan on doing some kind of implementation of the Warp in the West (which they do.) I provided one possible example myself earlier in this conversation. Daggerfall and Wayrest seize the Iliac Bay territories on either side of a shared border, which exists because of the Numidium dealing with contradictory vicotories. Hell, if I remember right, Oblivion made Anticlere that border, so if anything Anticlere should be one of their blasted Numidium wastelands in a fair implementation of it.

The big kingdoms were never in contention with the little ones for control of the region, some of them even already had alliances
The only thing ever stopping each of them was each other, which is why their endings were "they destroyed the other factions you could've given the totem to and now control the iliac bay"
The more realistic outcome is that none of them exist afterward and the whole area just becomes The Zone, but time fuckery dictates that's too boring to be real in either case
So concessions are made where they didn't actually do that and anything that falls outside of that contradiction is fair game- which the mod is resolving by concluding that they destroyed some shit but underking nuked himself before they could get anywhere serious, just using the minor advantage to continue to fight from there and expand their influence instead of eliminating all disparity and conflict permanently and completely flattening the political map

>>737166363
>The big kingdoms were never in contention with the little ones
Anticlere is being discussed because it's not a 'little one.'
>So concessions are made where they didn't actually do that and anything that falls outside of that contradiction is fair game
And the problem is that they decided their 'solution' should be that literally nothing from Wayrest or Daggerfall's endings mattered and they didn't conquer or do anything, which is far more boring than even making it all a wasteland because it means there's ZERO fucking change from how it is in Daggerfal with the Breton kingdoms. You have an opportunity to write about how the political situation in the Iliac Bay changed, which is interesting in and of itself, and decided "Hmm nah, we want it to stay how it was during Daggerfall despite the point being that it was an unsustainable clusterfuck." Hell, we haven't been talking about Hammerfell, but in the current planning Sentinel has a big fat ugly nuke zone next to it despite literally getting nothing out of it.

>>737166572
>Anticlere is being discussed because it's not a 'little one.'
Politically, it might as well have been
That's why it didn't get an ending
>there's ZERO fucking change from how it is in Daggerfal with the Breton kingdoms
Now there are less proper kingdoms and most of those left that still claim to be at all distinct from the surrounding political forces are either holding onto nothing but some shit ass village or fortress or something, or entirely cucked to daggerfall or wayrest anyway

>>737167010
>Now there are less proper kingdoms
Literally all the kingdoms from Daggerfall, at least in High Rock, are still there. None of them are gone.
>holding onto nothing but some shit ass village or fortress or something,
Holding onto their capital city, every last one. And because of the scale differences at play, we have no reason to think their smaller towns are gone or conquered instead of just not depicted due to scale issues. The solution to this would be to show some of those towns occupied by Daggerfall or Wayrest, but well, they don't want to actually depict either of those kingdoms having accomplished anything with the fucking Numidium.
>or entirely cucked to daggerfall or wayrest
By 'cucked' you mean "didn't win the thing you've been arguing they weren't fighting over in the first place"? Because as the map shows, they're all independent anyway.

>>737166572
>>737167010
Oh also Sentinel does control basically the entire area, and is only competing with Totambu as far as the Iliac region goes
Hammerfell's a bit of a different can of worms and has super distinct cultures that wouldn't really fit under the same faction

>>737167132
Oh okay so only Daggerfall and Wayrest get fucked over and don't get anything from their endings but literally everyone else gets what they wanted. Make that make sense. See >>737167120

There is actually no way that you consider the small singular town of Bhoriane or the half-destroyed remnant of Menevia or the Wayrest-ruled single city of Gavaudon to be entire kingdoms
You are again assmad about colors on a map that you do not understand the significance of

>>737167467
There's no way to tell the difference between somewhere like Gavaudon being a kingdom or just a city when the area it rules is roughly the same size as it was in Daggerfall, and the only reason it's not populated with as many towns is because the only way to show that in Morrowind would be having every tile be a village because of the scale difference.

>>737167581
You seem to care a whole lot about the scale difference when the thing being compared is current relative size
And again, literally a puppet of wayrest whose people can only seethe about alliances with both of their previous enemies at their borders

>>737167713
Current relative is depicted as the same, anon. The blue dashed lines represent provincial internal borders. All of the places you named still have their old territories?
>But they're a puppet
Then why be left with a region to itself? Why would somewhere like Tulune be left with a massive chunk of countryside no doubt teeming with too small to depict villages? You're maintaining the existence of these little kingdoms just to nullify the Wayrest and Daggerfall endings.

>>737167804
>Then why be left with a region to itself?
They're not, really
>Why would somewhere like Tulune be left with a massive chunk of countryside no doubt teeming with too small to depict villages?
Tulune is a town that's now part of Daggerfall, and doesn't have anything at all indicating it had ever controlled more than a small stretch of coast even before the war

>50 years until PC gets to the barrowlands or valley of altars
>Will probably be cut by then

>>737178014
Because, in-universe, it objectively makes much more sense for people to refer to the place by a real name in casual speech than calling it "The Imperial City" every time. Same reason the Morrowind voicelines all tend to refer to the race as "Cyrodiils" instead of "Imperials".

>>737178825
PGE1 never appeared in game.
It hasn't been referred to as cyrodiil city SINCE pge1. PGE1 is the ONLY place where the Imperial City was mislabeled.

>>737179079
And? It's still a canon document that exists in-universe, therefore Cyrodiil City is a real term used within the setting, which makes sense since referring to the Imperial Province as Cyrodiil and to the Imperial people as Cyrodiils are both also canon and they're not trying to be faithful to anything released after Morrowind

>>737166080
https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47580

>>737178825
pge1 is contemporary to the second era, and the actual text of the document -exclusively- refers to it as Imperial City
And the actual document, though written in classic imperial doublespeak, is more comprehensive and trustworthy than a map from the same source that doesn't even mark any settlements in the north or east of the country
