Morrowind vs Neverwinter nights

[Tacgnol]

both are biome-based open world free-form games with no scaling or respawning

So I don't really have a dog in this fight (I love Gothic, enjoy Morrowind and like some custom modules for NWN), but Morrowind does have respawns? Named NPCs don't respawn, but the world repopulates based on time.

Also, some content is on levelled lists, which admittedly isn't the same as wide-level scaling, but it's still there.

Lmao what a succinct way of describing balmora and telvanni joints .

"Bland version of Morrowind" is a pretty stupid way to describe Gothic. "Medieval world with Magic & Orcs" is a much more accurate way of presenting it. As someone who liked Warcraft: Orcs & Humans" I found the world of Gothic to be pretty familiar. If anything it felt even more realistic - so to speak - because of how gritty it is (in terms of how people behave and act. Especially in Gothic 1). It being fairly simple doesn't hurt either. Not everything has to have dozens of fantasy races. And I say that as someone who greatly enjoyed the whole cultural and racial aspect of Morrowind, too. Because you can like both.

Have you actually played Morrowind and gothic? The more you type the more I think you just watched lets plays because your pc couldn't run these games...

Too close to home. My PC couldn't run Gothic either when it came out. Ran NWN and Morrowind just fine though.

Ironically I had the same issue, my pc in the mid 00's wouldn't run gothic 1 or 2, they would just crash. I only played g1 and g2 for the first time in like 2020.

NWN, morrowind ran fine.... Gothic 3 ran fine aswell

I was lucky and had a friend whose dad had a PC that could run it, so I played it at his place. Fortunately, it's not a very long game.
