This game is weak.

Post » Sat Jun 09, 2012 1:17 am

Beat it once it dont matter what race or you make its all the same in the end. No real choices or outcomes. So you can shoot fire balls or arrows, stealth kill people, or hack and slash, thats the game with some crafting on the side. Its just about the coolest way you can kill some body thats it.

I wouldn't say it was a "weak" game although it's nothing special.
Agree with the lack of choices and outcomes. I would have loved to see alternate endings and noticeable consequences for our actions.

Weak is a little to much average is more right, a good action-rpg, but an incomplete Elder Scrolls.

It's no different to any other TES game. Pretty damn sure Morrowind didn't really have many choices considering besthesda are not like bioware when it comes to many choices or consequences. Oblivion was similar to yet praised for being a solid game.

Weak hells no, Average? Again not the right word. Solid RPG for the type of game it's offering that I will agree on. While I would have liked better structure when it came to certain quests like Mages Guild/college of Winterhold there's no doubt this game proves to be one of the best RPG's of this generation, in allowing us to play a game in which we can create a character, playing how we want to. If you want RPG's that gives you tons of choices and consequences play dragon age origins or mass effect.

The way I see it, had besthesda allocated more time into making consequences and choices skyrim would be lacking in so many other important areas it wouldn't be a good game as it is.

I personally thought it was amazing. Certainly the best game of 2011. Though, while it plays better than any Elder Scrolls game, I still think Morrowind offers the best Elder Scrolls experience. I think Oblivion and Skyrim are too obsessed with trying to put too many arbitrary stakes on the situations that arise in game. For games that are all about the world, most of the questing and content needs to be handled in a way that doesn't lend an air of false urgency. Skryim is a lot better than Oblivion in that department for sure, but all the structured quests seem to climix a little too early. The Thieves guild is probably the only one that's really done right, where as with the College and Companions, you've discovered a fragment of a god, and become a terrifying beast practically from the word "Go". There's no time to savor the world, which is the real star.

Have you ever played in a sandbox? Real one, with sand and sometimes dog crap if you are unlucky.

TES series are all Sandbox games. You get a tool to entertain yourself, that's all.

Personally Morrowind seemed like a cluster of so many stuff including becoming a massive god that it just devoids of any true challenge.

Sure there's alot of fun to be had on morrowind if you can stomach the poor graphical and animations of the game(since it hasn't aged well at all) then good for you. But personally while graphics aren't a HUGE selling point over anything else the game has to look somewhat good. Oblivion and Skyrim adds a sense of challenge that makes the game a bit more fun for me without breaking the game the traditional way as people always do when games comes out. Exploiting max alchemy and Enchanting to make OP stuff is one of the things I mean.

Exactly, that's why Skyrim plays better, but to be honest, and I say this as an avid Elder Scrolls fan, The Elder Scrolls series has never truly had amazing gameplay in any single department, Skyrim included. What sets Elder Scrolls games apart from the rest is the amazingly detailed worlds crafted for the player to explore. In this respect, Morrowind had a lot more integrity, variety and atmosphere than all four existing entries combined.

Same. People only seem to comment on things like this, or when someone writes 'how is destruction weak' or 'I'm leaving TES forever'.

I just don't think anyone that says they beat actually played the game for what its worth. Why? Because I am close to 300 hours in and I haven't even been through the stuff. I don't fast travel and I role play. There is no way people who do that would be totally done eveything. Sorry there is no possible way.

Completely agree, this guy is just spamming though. Look at his other topics, he's not worth it.

For sure if you expect a finished game its weak.

But if you see it as a blank canvas and think about how itll be after a few years of modding, then its fairly promising.

Which only makes the toolset delays a criminal matter IMO, but sadly I lack jurisdiction so Ill have to be patient like everyone else...

You're over simplifying the whole thing. You can also craft things, collect things, stealth your way with as little kill as possible... and you can roleplay if you know what that means.

I still have yet to come across an original concept community mod from Morrowind or Oblivion (TR comes damn close though) that is better than anything the original team makes. If we're talking bug fixes, data changes or graphical updates, sure, but the community isn't a slave to the market like the actual developers are.
