    Anything that requires MWSE. That's most of the mods I had installed last time I played.

    Yet Another Morrowind Thread

    I agree with the general sentiment; I'd rather have the game push back against me instead of being an amusement park. But I disagree with the idea that one needs to break the game to have fun. I see Morrowind's openness as an opportunity to try out different playstyles for my characters. I like...

    On Dishonored and the inherent inferiority of the stealth ImSim.

    One feature of every heist movie is that section where the robbers plan out the heist in exquisite detail. Guard placement, shifts, security cameras, redundant security systems, points of entry, escape routes, insiders, surrounding infrastructure, etc. We take only a very brief glance at this...

    On Dishonored and the inherent inferiority of the stealth ImSim.

    I don't agree, but people like Warren Spector do, which is what motivated him to make Deus EX. At least he thought the stealth formula was too restrictive.
