Why? He's a generic tutorial npc that robotically dumps info on various locations in the world. I'm actually not even sure why they did that, seems counterintuitive to organically exploring and learning about the world. It's sort of weird, you can spoil like 3/4 the game by just talking to him.
It's called being a guide
Why do I need a guide? Imagine if you actually had to learn about the world to navigate it. Imagine if the game was designed like that.
>Imagine if the game were the bog standard fantasy sandbox where you get told to frick off and figure it out yourself
Daggerfall came out before Morrowind anon
>Imagine if you actually had to learn about the world to navigate it. Imagine if the game was designed like that.
this filters mainstream gamers
What extra info does he dump on you if you don't specifically ask about it? Only thing I can think of is telling you to join one if the guilds but its only as a cover and not a guide.
I don’t remember this being true, unless you’re referring to him explaining what the nerevarine is as spoiling the game
You think that because you only play bethesda games, and not real RPGs like Knights of the Chalice 2 and Dragon Quest Monsters. Morrowind sucks and my threads are dying because there are 100 bethesda threads.
There, no need to have these arguments today.
>mentioning dqm
Oh frick off I like dqm and tes
>I comment here again just because I had something interesting to contribute to the discussion. Not because I wanted to artificially keep this thread alive. I'm being completely honest, I swear it guys!
It's a meme just like fargoth or 99% of morrowind npcs who people pretend they have an actual interesting personality in any way possible
The player needs grounding in an alien world to not turn them off it. I think Morrowind does generally have too much exposition, but Caius doesn't actually give away too much, he just tells you about the factions (because he thinks you should join one) and a few other current events. As far as tutorial NPCs, he's one of the best ever as far as character wise.
Aka 90% of Morrowind's "characters".
>le buff skooma old guy
It's just memes dude, as everything about MW is nowadays. The most lifeless NPCs I've ever seen in vidya.
He’s a bro for sure.
Please stop talking about bethesda games, and go talk about indie CRPGs or whatever with the schizo.
Very iconic guy
How do you even survive as a bare-fisted monk fighter in a brutal world like nirn?
This guy literally gets high on drugs and punches his enemies to death like crack addict
sometimes simple solutions are the best. also i think they sent him to that Vvanderfell shithole to get rid of him
pls dont say it loud or nu-skyrim i mean elder scrolls VI gonna do "le epic reference" and put his ghost in their shit-slop game
You REALLY needed to add another fricking morrowind/elder scrolls thread to the list of 20 we already have don't you?
Anyway, I've just arrived to Solsteim. Last stop before I finish the game
frick off to v i already told you fricking wannabe moderator
>tutorial NPC stops giving tutorials
>it breaks your heart
HOW did they pull that off?
TES fans are getting increasingly mentally ill and unhinged
Like the moronic schizo who hates Bethesda, yet goes to every TES related thread to start shit, then whines about his own threads dying because of TES threads, and then shills some shitty indie CRPG. In a TES thread.
You are posting pictures of half naked men and attacking each other now. Please make another high quality thread and show everyone how intelligent morrowind fans are.
I'm sorry your threads don't get enough replies, dude.
I'm just here to post about sequel.
Prolonged exposure to Emil’s writing. Those who stick to Daggerfall are completely functional.
breed me pls
I murder him in every playthrough and I do not feel sorry about it. Yes I have never completed the main quest canonically IT IS BORING
He is the Mentor in the Hero's Journey, and is very well-done, which is why people still remember him fondly decades later. He guides you and slowly introduces you to the world and the background lore, with his early quests providing a scaffolding for slowly unraveling the puzzle of the Nerevarine, step by step, and why the Empire gives a shit. He's a flawed character (he partially went native and is a drug addict, he was likely sent to bumfrick nowhere due to troubles with powerful figures at court) but he always deals fairly with the main character. Finally, once you're up and running and understand what's going on, he gives you some sweet gifts and leaves the game, as you can handle the rest on your own. He doesn't overstay his welcome.
It's probably the best example of the merging narrative and the gameplay tendencies of gamers (to ignore the main quest and go side quest for three years) I can think of, he literally says "you're a level 2 scrub, go frick off and get some experience. Go join some guilds, go do some side quests, go adventuring, go exploring, I don't give a shit, just come back here when you're stronger."
>you're a level 2 scrub, go frick off and get some experience
Oblivion should've had a jumping off point for the main quest like this. First you can hand off the amulet, but then there's an eternally burning city, and when you hand off the bastard, the amulet is gone.. I just want to adventure for god's sake!
In Skyrim it's easier to ignore informing the jarl or to grab the Dragonstone that starts the whole dragon menace debacle.
Tamriel Rebuilt is amazing and I wish everyone would play it. I'm completely immersed into it, been playing for a month and I can't wait for more.
I did play it and it was really bad. You should move on from this homosexual reddit series.
Have you considered moving on, anon?
I playing an rpg that isn't morrowind right now. When is the last time you did?
Last time I played an rpg that wasn’t Morrowind was last night, anon. I recently replayed it for the first time in a decade or so and now I am done.
When I see discussion of games I don’t like and aren’t interested in talking about, I ignore them and move on, because it’s not worth my time to seethe about things I don’t like and constantly bump threads to argue about them.
I think there's a grace period after you play a game you don't like where complaining about it makes sense but some of the mother frickers on the internet will post the same shit for years for seemingly no reason other than thinking they're part of some sort of moronic war
It's only bad when it's morrowind. When I b***h in every bg3 thread it's super based.
I make threads about games I haven't even played to b***h about them. Like I specifically start the threads just to air imaginary complaints.
>STILL hasn’t played Prey
You should, it’s fun
I only make threads to complain about crpgs, but I love posting about off topic games like prey. I basically buy and discuss whatever Todd tells me to.
We're you playing Morrowind as a child when your mom was being raped or something?
This reminds me that TES fans are some of the most two-faced Black folk alive.
I, too, b***hed about bg3 for a couple months after release, but now I’ve moved on. Such is life
They should really make the mod completely standalone, with a main character that is not the nerevarine. Having to even set foot on vanilla morrowind content for then to go to TR lands makes the original game feel cheap as frick
It felt worse and a lot more amateur than the OC to me.
Nah. The shittiest quest in TR is a god tier quest in vanilla morrowind. And the land and cities are obviously bigger and more detailed, but that's a matter of technology so it's not fair to compare to a game made for computers of 2002
>The shittiest quest in TR is a god tier quest in vanilla morrowind
I must be going crazy because I crossed over to Helnim and it was so bad I uninstalled morrowind right after and never played it again. What parts of that town do you consider good?
Old Helnim was bad, they only redid it back in 2023
I played it in 2023, it's still bad. You didn't answer my question.
I remember having fun with the Thieves Guild quests there, though they're minor.
Did you even steal anything in that quest line? All I remember was them being in a basement and talking to a bunch of badly written NPCs.
How was it bad?
The questline was linear, the NPC prose was bad, and the plotline wasn't particularly memorable. There wasn't really anything good about it, just felt like vacuous filler to populate the map. Like these aren't things that motivate me to explore the town and talk to the colorful residents there, because there's not anything interesting there in the first place, it's just hunting for a npc to advance the quest line repeated a few times. That's not good quest design.
I disagree, there's a majority of quests that have multiple choices and outcomes, and the writing is on par with the base game. Personally I think it has a lot more charm even. Your definition of good quest design is pretty vague(for shitposting purposes no doubt)
>the writing is on par with the base game
Show me an example of what you consider good writing in TR.
All of it, I'm sorry you exist to put down others.
Yeah? I stole some books to blackmail an official and the thing builds up to a small heist on the nearby Telvanni tower.
Not him, but isn't Helnim as well as several other smaller settlements considered as newer towns that have fairly recently been constructed? I don't think they should all be hyper detailed like Old Ebonwatch because that kind of detracts from the immersion.
>I don't think they should all be hyper detailed like Old Ebonwatch because that kind of detracts from the immersion.
Shouldn't a small town be more detailed than cities because it's not full of bugmen? When a small town has shit content it's a lot more noticeable. In a good game those should be the strongest parts.
John Lithgow?
whenever you find yourself missing caius,
just remember that he 100% intentionally sent you on a suicide mission into dagoth gares grotto so that you would contract super god-cancer under the utterly insane gamble that you miraculously surviving corprus would confirm you the nerevarine.
Is this homie allergic to bump limit or something?
Was there cut content in Morrowind? Why did he disappeared halfway through the game?
It was supposed to act as a "you're on your own, kid" moment.
This.
There was some cut content in Morrowind. There was supposed to be another village up north, west of Dagon Fel, there is dialogue referring to it but it doesn’t exist game. There’s some cut quests that are hinted at in game as well but specifics elude me. Also, many of the sixth house bases that aren’t involved in any quests are quite bare bones and empty by Morrowind standards. One of them has a weird item to use, fountain of something, forgetfulness maybe? that does nothing and was clearly part of a cut quest.

/vrpg/ could be good. That said I've had some good talks on this board too.
>/vrpg/ could be good. That said I've had some good talks on this board too.
I agree with you. The irony also is that the Black folk who constantly screech about “board quality” and bad threads and what other people post about are the very ones shitting up the board and derailing discussion.
/tesg/ is right down the hall.
I'll remain here, thanks
tesg is great if i need help with mods, graphics settings, that sort of thing. but the discussion is 95% coomer shit. discussion here is legitimately better, even if there are a lot of trolls.
So was he actually a skooma addict or was that just his cover identity?
>So was he actually a skooma addict or was that just his cover identity?
Yes.
We don't know and that's the point. It's a metaphor for the Nerevarine. Is he really a drug addict? Or is he just a convincing copy of one?
Maybe by being a convincing fake, he ended up becoming the real deal.. like Nerevarine...
>We don't know and that's the point
This is what I used to believe but there's so many cringe haha le skooma addict reddit tier memes that get spammed in any morrowind thread.
He is a skooma addict, either way. I personally think he partially went native and his discipline suffered being out in the sticks with no oversight. That said, the best deep cover relies on living the cover for authenticity.

Interestingly enough, just learned daggerfall is the first video game with gay marriage. Guess Bethesda was always pushing the envelope on progressive politics and gratuitous homosexuality in video games. No wonder gays like it so much.
>Morrowind lore indicates that Argonians are sexless at birth, with their sex being determined by how often they lick the Hist tree. This means that they can (and do) transition between sexes and genders throughout their lives. Game descriptions reference a male and female "life phase.”
Explain this, Todd troons.
It's a game franchise made by a progressive company with a vocally progressive fanbase with just enough epic fantasy racism to keep the /misc/ troons content.
But I bet any money they'll revolt when there's a transwoman in TES6.
I haven’t seen a single Bethesda fan, past or present, say anything of tes6 on this board other than “it’s gonna be shit” or, at best, “I used to be cautiously optimistic but after starfield and nu-fallout it’s ogre”
You are missing the point. It was always bad.
You live in an elaborate fiction, which exists only in your mind, that if someone has ever, at any point, liked any game by a developer, then 1. They only play that game, 2. They only play games by that developer, and 2. They will always play games by that developer, and will never say “man that old game I liked when I was a kid was cool but this new shit sucks, frick them, I’m done with them and not playing any more of their shit”
Your subjective opinions about any game in particular, or mine, are irrelevant to this delusion of yours
There's going to be continuous riots about it after launch on this board for months if not years. Screencap my post.
I expect that the gnomes will pull the plug on the internet and we will be using green tips and canned beans for currency before tes6 actually comes out.
You wish, you're going to sit your fat ass down in your suffering computer chair and you're going to watch the fricking spectacle.
Best of luck to you out there, anon.
What does that have to do with Morrowind objectively being super progressive and gay as frick? Morrowind has an oppressed transexual furry Mary Sue race. That's a fact.
>Explain this
they are magical lizard people in a fantasy setting and you are obssesed with troony wieners
lol notice how the homosexual ass janny rushed to the rescue of TES but the very same morons making these threads are allowed to screech about how every single crpg made in the last 20 years is pozzed. Deletions ONLY happen in TES threads.
It's because the moronic janny thought it was samegayging that he could hit with mass deletion, but surprise, it wasn't. Time to burn this shit thread down to the ground. No mercy for these tards.
there's no release date yet for the TR update, is there?
Check the discord sis
Did you wear his black shirt and pants, anon?
I did wear his pants on my paladin, gave a nice fluffy personality boost. Maras shirt from the Imperial Cult quest line, the Hlaalu hortator belt, the Lords Mail, the fists of Randagulf, and Imperial Templar armor for the rest.
>Lords Mail, the fists of Randagulf, and Imperial Templar armor
Based. Did you get the tailored pants too from imp cult quests?
My mistake anon, I did not wear Caius’ pants. Those tailored pants are the ones I wore.
Nice they might as well be called BASED pants if you ask me, but caius pants were useful when sneaking inside the moon
That part was pretty funny. I promised what’s her face I wouldn’t crack any Ordinateur skulls when she gave me the key, so I just timed it so I didn’t run into any of them in the halls (they kinda frick you by implying you should enter the door next to her which has a guaranteed conflict, but if you enter via the next door down you can skip that encounter) and in the very last room, with the open air pens, I had 100+ str and 100 speed/acrobatics/athletics and so I just leaped like a chad halfway across the room while the virgin ordinators stumbled around like ants. Then I made sure I returned the key to the nice lady before i divine interventioned out.
>I had 100+ str and 100 speed/acrobatics/athletics and so I just leaped like a chad halfway across the room while the virgin ordinators stumbled around like ants
Leg days skipped: 0 and those ordinator scrubs better learn
Father figure
Man I just squatted this morning for the first time since new years because I am moronic and thought I’d do cardio on the rowing machine and switch to cutting weight, but I hate cardio and can’t be assed to stick with it consistently and I crippled the shit out of my adductors and started cramping up after barely warming up. Extremely embarrassing and now I probably can’t walk tomorrow.
Leg exercises are my least favorite for that reason lol. I hate cardio too but love the stamina gains, been thinking of getting a rowing machine for some time
We'll never have another guide like this
The last six posts were all one person.
It's the moron that bumps the following all together every day:
Every bethesda thread
Every final fantasy thread
Every console era bioware thread
He does this to every thread in the catalogue pertaining to these games, maybe makes a couple more threads about them, and then talks to himself or responds to 2 week old posts for the 3rd or 4th time. Every day he does this.
Thanks for your report, agent Schizo. I'm promoting you to the rank of Blades Apprentice. When you're ready, come back to me for more orders.
It’s funny because I was having a conversation with at least one other anon, while he was sperging out about “you’re just one person posting to yourself”. He just wanted attention so I didn’t give him any (yous)
It's better to ignore. Man took too much sugar and now sees the emperor's enemies everywhere.
Nice headcanon.
