Morrowind Recreated using the Skyrim Engine

Very cool. Fingers crossed that they finish it.

Morrowind definitely feels incredibly dated. You can pretty it up but the underlying tech is (relatively) ancient and you can see the seams where modders have stitched things together. I'm looking forward to this since I missed Morrowind at release for some reason.

Finally a reason to buy Skyrim!

There's a couple of caveats though: to try it, you're going to need a copy of Skyrim, along with either the Morrowind GOTY edition, or Morrowind and its Tribunal and Bloodmoon expansions.

Of fuck, I gotta find a disc?

You could say....

it was a regret.

Creators of these big mega projects usually tend to lose interest before finishing. If it does it in fact get released, it could be a lot of fun.

Was waiting for a cliff racer to SCREEEEEE from out of nowhere on the trailer. Son I am dissapoint.

Sorry about the necro, but I guess these passion projects really do take some time. A trailer came out for Skywind last month, and hit my nostalgia hard. Then one came out just a few days ago for Skyblivion.

Looks like Skyblivion is closer to being 'finished', but I figured this is a good enough spot to show both.

Can we VRitize all these? because that would be so much win- SkyrimVR is still one of the best VR exps - esp modded up it looks legit

Morrowind is my favorite RPG of all time. Was fiddling about trying to install it and get the 4k texture pack just the other day. Thanks for reminding me about these guys. Hopefully it comes out soonish.

I bet it'll be another year or two, but these guys are seriously dedicated. There is already a Skyblivion, with Morrowind recreated in Oblivion's engine. Check out their page for the latest version. Skywind will eventually release, but who knows when.

Sorry man, this made me feel old. Necro'ing a thread from 6 years ago about Morrowind, but I guess this is where we are now.

I remember when Morrowind came out I was soooo excited that there was finally a single player EQ-style game. Within the first couple hours I cheesed the guards in Vivec (sp?) and got broken OP with no upgrades to look forward to and never really picked it back up. I was my own worst enemy in these open-world/sandbox style games

I actually felt guilty playing an offline RPG and cheesing it to hell and back, but after a few dungeons as an invisible, archery, ninja assassin, the guilt faded. If you play the game (even broken), it's still a masterful RPG and a complete blast. You end up in areas you shouldn't be, and finish the game a few levels early. It's a great experience and you find ways to challenge yourself.

Morrowind was indeed the best of TES games, and IMO is one of the best in the genre. Hopefully they can recreate what made it good. The factions, the in many cases lack of direction which forced you to read what NPCs said to you and try to work out the directions from there. It was really an exploration. If they have map markers and fast travel like skyrim then it's most likely going to suck, because even though you could ignore those features, they will still be there which diminishes the whole experience.
