Morrowind
.
STOP. You cannot escape the righteous! |
Morrowind is a truly ancient RPG developed by Bethesda Softworks, a truly shitty company. It contains the standard sword and sorcery fare, with elves, orcs, and a protagonist who alone possesses the power to save the world from certain doom. With Roll the Dice Gameplay, broken enemy spawns, shitty level up systems, and more, It's totally not a cliché game, we swear!
Creative Writing 99
The player arrives in Vvardenfel as an amnesiac prisoner, only to be immediately released so that he might perform a vital and far reaching task for his one time captors. Gameplay wise, no one seems to be aware of any potential conflict of interest. "Get out of your filthy cell and save our asses," would seem to be the standard modus operandi for the Empire, which happens to rule the known world. This main quest is stunningly short, essentially requiring the player to nose around a bit, befriend some ignorant savages, and kill a purple, pro-ana, half naked demigod bearing a faggy mask and red loincloth. I can only assume that Bethesda's writers have been showered with awards and all the buttsex they could ever desire thanks to their truly remarkable literary triumphs.
Character Creation
Just like all Elder Scrolls game's, the player starts off the boat with the ability to create a unique and Original character. The player is given ten races to choose from, Four humans, Three elves, orcs, Khajiit, and Argonians.
- Altmer: Altmer (or High Elves, if you are a filthy Casual) are smug faggots who love to sit around and smell their golden farts. Their major Skills deal with shooting pixie dust out of their ass cheeks. They have a boost in magicka, but every fucking attack kills you instantly.
- Argonians: Bethesda loves to harbor the attention of any fandom they can get, so why not get scalies excited to buy the games as well? Argonians are a bunch of tribal Lizards who serve as slaves for the glorious Dunmer master race. Because they live in black marsh, a landfill of shit, Argonians have a resistance to diseases and poisons. Their overpowered daily power is the ability to breath underwater (so fucking useful, amarite guise?). Like said before, only useful as slaves.
- Bosmer: Tree hugging, Legolas wannabe faggots. Bosmer are characters that, like most of the races, are forced to stick to one class type. They excel in archery, sneaking, light armor, acrobatics, and being prancing faggots. But anything else beyond hopping around like a homosexual toad taking it in the ass will result in getting yourself killed. The First Bosmer you see, named Fargoth, creeps on you and begs you to give him a fucking ring. Bosmer are only fun until you realize that they are the shittiest class in the game, only to be outed by the Imperials.
- Bretons: in a shitty attempt to make a mage based human, Bretons are the first candidates out of the Chocolate factory to fill the role. Bretons are nothing more than useful human wizards. Like Bosmers, Bretons are another middle tier class that never gets played because of their uselessness. Dunmer and Altmer prove to be far better mages than Bretons, and Bretons have nothing to prove their worth. The only thing that makes a Breton useful is the fact that unlike Altmer, Bretons can actually take more than one hit from an attack. Their special daily power is Dragonskin, which means that magic does shit to them.
- Dunmer: The homeland team itself, the most Overpowered race in the entire game. These Muthsera's can wipe the floor with your ass. They specialize in Destruction, mysticism, long blade, short blade, athletics, and marksman. They get bonuses in everything and trump every other class. You can be whatever class type you want and be another at the same time. In general, these fuckers are the shit. Their daily power is the ability to not get hit by anything for a short period of time. Fuck all other classes, just pick this one and win the game.
- Imperials: The shittiest of the shit races, Imperials are probably the biggest failures in existence and the biggest disappointments to Todd Howard. Their stats consist of good speech and mercantile. Their daily power is using the emperor's voice to calm their enemies. These fuckers are so weak, their daily power makes their enemies realize that they are not worth trying to kill. They offer no good gameplay and are never used.
- Khajiit: In order to make sure that their game would sell, Bethesda Softworks sold out like a blight infested whore to the furry fandom in the most disgusting way possible. Khajiit are nothing more than Thieving jews out to get your jew-septims. Khajiit have acrobatic skills equal to a nigger's, lockpicking skills equal to a nigger's, and are also the second most common slave in Morrowind just like niggers. If anything, Khajiit are just niggers for furries. But wait, THERE'S MOAR!!1one!! Khajiit come from the deserts of Elswyer, making Khajiit filthy sand niggers. Once again, a semi-terrible class being added up into a shit class.
- Nords: The second best class in the entire game. Unlike all other classes, nords are the only human class that can blow through the game's MQ like a land whale blows through a mcdonalds restaurant. They are skilled in all weapon types, both heavy and medium armor, are 100% resistant to frost attacks, 50% resistant to shock attacks, and will sparta kick any faggot who messes with them. With a little easy leveling up, the right gear, and some farming, your nord can walk through damage like he was walking through a land of boobs slapping him in the face in sync to the beat of Moonlight Sonnata 3. They pretty much are no different than Dunmer except that nords take a little bit longer to level into god Tier. The only downside to this class is if you played Skyrim before Morrowind and chose this class, you're a filthy casual. If you chose this class and played Morrowind before ever hearing about Skyrim, you are a pretty cool guy.
- Orcs: as if orcs weren't nasty enough, the Lore of the elder scrolls says that the Orcs were literally made of shit. not an ED joke, literally made of shit!!! They specialize in blocking, basic weapons, and being ruff and tuff. Their daily power is the ability to do over 9000 damage, but can get knocked down by a single blow. They are just another shit tier class you don't play because no one likes being an orc.
- Redguard: From the mountains of Hammerfell comes the true niggers of Morrowind. Not to be confused with the Brazilian Bretons, Redguards are another human warrior class that is easily beaten by the Nords. Ironically, there are no Redguard slaves in Morrowind, but that doesn't mean you don't kill them on site. They specialize in long blade, Blunts, and of course Athletics. Their daily power allows them to run even faster. This class is even weaker than the Orcs so its a class no one plays as. Completely forgettable and easily mistaken for the Bretons.
Power Level
Morrowind, like all good RPG's, have a set of skills and attributes that define your characters abilities. Thankfully, Bethesda decided it was time to make a Stat System that wasn't just copypasta of every other character stat system. Unlike every other game in existence, Morrowind has 8 Attributes and 27 FUCKING SKILLS!!! Along with that, each attribute effects the over all effectivness of the skills. The skills include
The Land That Debugging Forgot
Just like every fucking other game shat from Todd Howard's unhallowed bowels, Morrowind is passed around programming classes to show everyone how you don't code. These glitches, bugs, and other abortions of design range from unintentionally hilarious to utterly game breaking. The former includes animation, for which Bethesda is infamous, and Morrowind is their most blatant offender. Walking looks like some nigger is trying to pull off a crazy dougie, while running bears more than a passing resemblance to an aspie flinging his limbs about in a vain attempt to complete a marathon. The latter includes broken quests, broken balance, broken gameplay... essentially, anything that could possibly be broken. These bugs are so pervasive that a comprehensive patch mod failed to fix many of them, requiring an overhaul of the executable file. Yet again, it's tough shit for Steam users, as their executables can't be modified.
BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE!
There are two more races, unfit for polite discussion. Argonians are lizardmen, perfect for scalies. By far, however, the most reviled race is the Khajiit, anthropomorphic cats. In a cruel twist of fate, Bethesda decided to include furries rather than catgirls. You can give thanks to BASED GOD that there are no humanoid wolves or foxes to be found. The game is so dedicated to its furry fanbase that the only "romance" quest involves a female Khajiit. Obviously, Bethesda had no idea that all furries are cock hungry faggots.
Money, Honor, and FUCK YOU
So, you've rolled your furry character, ready to rape anything that moves... but the guards consistently hand you your ass on a platter. What to do? You need a power base, and that's where the Great Houses come in. House Hlaalu is concerned with money above all else, and they would kill their mothers and rape their corpses to get a taste of some precious drakes. House Redoran holds honor above all else, to the point that they humbly dwell in the enormous, chitinous carcass of a colossal crab in the middle of a wasteland. House Telvanni doesn't really give a shit about much of anything unless you try to fuck them over. They are the the only Vvardenfel house to openly own and trade slaves (buy a nigger for yourself, if you'd like), and the Mage Lords are perfectly content to sit at the top of their mushroom towers and contemplate the finer points of life for thousands of years. You can join any of these houses and rise to the top, even if you're a furry... yet another bug, I would assume.
Mods
Morrowind is shipped with a Construction Set so n00b friendly that it allows even the unwashed masses who've never heard of CSIII to create mods. These typically fall into the categories of nude body replacers, sex slave merchants, and lots of pretty, pretty dresses for sweet, innocent princesses. The rare exceptions to these are mods intended to clean up Bethesda's half finished game, fixing broken quests, fixing broken skill progression, fixing CTDs, and pretty much anything else that could have possibly gone wrong in development. A few of the more intrepid coders attempted to create a mod that would wipe Todd Howard's ass, seeing as he can't do it himself without breaking his toilet.
