What makes The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind one of the greatest games of all time? Is it the complex imperial politics of its setting? The piquant mythopoeia? Fargoth?
It's none of these. It's the fact it's a right ballache to actually play.
I… kid? Sort of? I'll admit it: Morrowboomers can lean a little too hard into valourising Morrowind's rough edges, but that doesn't mean they're wrong. What I love about Morrowind more than anything is that its world just doesn't care about you. It will subject you to its weird and arcane rules and expect you to figure them out.
If you break against the rocks? Fine. If you totally grasp it and turn yourself into a gamebreakingly powerful death-wizard? Also fine. The game just doesn't mind either way, which makes all your struggles, tragedies, and triumphs feel like they actually belong to you.
Anyway, all this long preamble is to say: someone has made some very well-done Skyrim-style quest markers for the game, and I for one am outraged.
