  3. Total War-like Formation Tactics Game

    I have a new build 45 up that fixes a huge number of bugs, improves performance, and adds a lot of factions. The factions are pseudo-historical, like mount and blade factions kind of, but they are: Barbarians (Germanic/Celtic warband) Caliphate (Berber/Andalusian) The Empire (Hellenistic...

  4. Total War-like Formation Tactics Game

    I have a new build 37 up now with many more factions and units, including The Legion (sort of Roman like tactically), The Mercenaries (Carthage-like), the Empire (Hellenistic), the Woodsmen (Welsh-ish), the Pirates (Illyrian-like medium foot army) , in addition to the existing Kingdom (Norman)...

  6. Vapourware The problem with Speech (and your ideas for solutions)

    I agree that Morrowind's implementation often falls short, but it's more the base disposition system I like as a starting point. Admire should be an option, among those I listed, that would in a better implementation a) only be available (or at all effective at least) when used by certain...

  7. Vapourware The problem with Speech (and your ideas for solutions)

    It depends quite a bit on what the appeal of the specific game is. BG3 is a cinematic, licensed DnD experience, so including dice rolls in conversation checks, and having a huge quantity of content in terms of dialogue, voice-overs and sequencer cinematics is basically required, regardless of...

  8. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    yeah like blocking it's an auto thing (but with even less visual feedback), but yeah I meant a mechanical input like in Mordhau, instead of just moving the character back and forth to dodge attacks altogether. Although, I'm not sure if the auto or the mechanical way is better, but it is strange...

  9. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    Maybe consolidating them into speaking one's racial language + linguist for all other languages could work, but I get that' it's basically bloat. It would probably just in effect be an extra opinion boost + the rare dialogue option with certain NPCs, but the simple same-race and same-faction...

  10. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    You could solve the speech-builds-still-sometimes-having-to-fight issue if Charisma builds could recruit followers or hire mercenaries as you mentioned, the former being more speechcraft and the latter more mercantile, for those quests where there's just no other solution. Conjuration could play...

  11. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    Yeah I agree with this integration point. Sometimes, a Morrowind cave has an indirect approach where you can use swimming, levitation and/or lockpicking to steal the macguffin, or catch the high value target alone, or leave the offering at the shrine etc..., and then exfil with little fighting...

  12. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    I don't disagree with much of this. It is possible to commit enough crime in Morrowind that you get a "death warrant" and can no longer pay it off (they just kill you), but it would be much better if, like you say, your reputation for crime was (more like the faction relations) regional rather...

  13. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    Yeah I agree that the world is not dynamic. There are some one-off small things like guards attacking creatures you drag into town, or everyone in a room attacking you if you kill their leader (e.g. a telvanni councillor), the end of the thieves and fighters guilds being mutually incompatible...

  14. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    I'll take it. I will drunk post on a sunday afternoon in whatever style I like. I sort of wish I'd known this, but am also glad in retrospect that I ran around the ashlands so much exploring.

  15. Anyone addicted to Morrowind?

    I tried and bounced off Morrowind repeatedly in my teens and 20s, and then for some reason tried playing it again on xbox in my thirties and got totally hooked. I've done multiple characters/builds with different question concentrations over the course of the last few months including: unarmored...
