I for one have been playing openmw non stop. Being able to replay morrowind on a brand new modern engine has completely enthralled me. The graphical enhancements you can add are superb, volumetric clouds and fogs keep the same aesthetic of the alien world Morrowind inhabits while also adding some much needed visual flare.

Also the gameplay still holds up…mostly! Finding your quests is an experience in itself. I’m getting terribly used to quest markers and maps that tell me where to go. Morrowind says fuck you “Your quest is by the old rickety bridge south of town besides the river. Good luck” no markers just exploration.

The game is not for everyone but everyone should try it.

      It’s brutal, but there are checkpoints along the way. In Strawberry Jam you can save your progress in each level and try something else when you get stuck. It is nowhere near as linear as the original game. The only thing which is progress-gated is the marathon “heartside” level at the end of each lobby, which requires clearing all the ordinary levels.
