    Maybe that’s they point, people want to play Morrowind but they don’t have a platform that can actually play it

      For PC, there’s already OpenMW to do that: openmw.org

      Basically, it’s a fan reimplementation of the Morrowind engine, which you feed the original game files into. It also has a number of improvements over the original, like higher resolution, higher view distance and virtually no loading times.

    Meanwhile I just got into retrogaming (as a PS1 kid) and I’m amazed by how… just all around better old games are, unless you want realistic graphics. You don’t need battle passes and daily quests to have an entertaining experience, just a d-pad and a couple of actions (one can be jump)

      You can even have full 3D movement without dual analogs! Not ideal, but it works

    Yes, please stop asking for remakes or reboots or rereleases. There hasn’t been a AAA game I’ve cared about in years. It’s all derivative shit.

      Everything is derivitive if your pedantic enough

    Pretty spicy take, imho.

    I have no problem with Daggerfall Unity, why should Morrowind be a problem?

    I still play Daggerfall at least once a year. It was all downhill after Daggerfall.
