:O Mannnnn I so wish Morrowind went down to $10 during the sale. I'm on a strict diet.

Mod-filled Morrowind was a cherished diversion through much of grad school. The music alone is almost enough to push me over the edge and get back into PC gaming. Are there other games available on the platform?
Argh... *peeks over at Newegg*

Don't worry, I'm sure it will go on sale soon. I think it went on sale 2 or 3 times in 2010.

That's Jeremy fucking Soule right there. The man is a genius when it comes to VG music. His work on Guild Wars is some of my favorite VG music of all time.

Few questions since I own Morrowind/Oblivion on Steam but never got around to play Morrowind yet.
1. This is a graphical upgrade to Morrowind and not a mod for Morrowind running via Oblivion, right?
2. Any difference beside graphics?
3. Should I experience Morrowind on it's own or will this mod effect the experience?

Hm, is this the collection of mods that adds all the best weapons easily available from a shop instead of having to find them? Always wary of fan made mods messing up game balance like this.

1. Correct, it's a compilation of Morrowind mods.
2. Well it adds objects like extra trees/bushes etc and some buildings and the like, so nothing like combat mods or anything that will affect game balance.
3. As this doesn't alter the gameplay mechanically, I'd say to skip vanilla and go straight for this.

ah shit. I own this from a steam sale but I've never played it. Maybe I should now.

Are we sure? I thought usually at least with Oblivion you needed 1 gig of VRAM for all of the texture mod shit.

I can agree with this, but it still came nowhere to being as awe inspiring as Morrowind.
I have exams this month I have exams this month I have exams this month I will not get addicted to this game again I will not get addicted to this game ARGH.
Morrowind was so amazing. The only bad thing about the game was... well... Tribunal I guess? That was a pretty bad xpac, but Bloodmoon redeemed it. So many hours. And I didn't even ever finish the story or explore the whole map. This game was fucking massive, with so many choices of what to do. I think the closest vg that has gotten to more or less status of single player MMO.
What really made it unique though was the art direction. I hated Oblivion because, while TES3 had it's own unique design and charm, Oblivion was pretty much straightforward fantasy crap. Forests everywhere, pseudo-medieval castles, knights in shining armors, nothing that you wouldn't see everywhere else.

Man forgot how great the music is in Morrowind, and that's some amazing looking water. Models still look like ass but I guess that would be asking too much. Shame this would never run on my shitty laptop (vanilla struggles as it is).
I actually hated Shivering Isles, quite an amazing feat to fill the area with all that weird shit and still be more dull than the main game. NPCs are also extra irritating.

I've contacted Tyler (website/project author) and will have informed him of this link. So with any luck it will also be available on the official website soon.
Mirror is up!

I noticed this as well, yet I recall a number of excellent face mods. In fact (after a quick search), I remember being completely blown away by Rhedd's Heads. (Looking at some of the comments on that site, maybe this doesn't replace NPC heads though... strange.)onken said:

Perhaps some incompatibilities with the slew of other mods included? That's the only reason I can think of.

Thanks man!
*patiently waits for other Steam downloads to complete so this could be added in*Ohh! That looks intruiging! Someone patient enough willing to check if the two are compatible?
I remember getting chills playing this game. I never get chills. The soundtrack was just incredible. I was too young to get very far into it. I would love to go back and complete it. Oblivion fell short of my hype but I don't think anything could really stack up to the way I felt about Morrowind.
