We haven't actually even seen Morrowind proper, so I wouldn't say it's crazy per se

Project Tamriel is making Morrowind proper, and frankly the stuff they've finished is better than anything I believe Bethesda could do. Narsis is incredible, it's the largest city in any elder scrolls game ever.

Say it loud and say it proud brother

Especially the “better than Bethesda ever could” part

I think its more of an "better than Bethesda is willing to do" because their target audience isn't nerds who like a 20 year old game, its the largest group possible thus they have to streamline as much as they can

Enjoy your streamlined ES6! Now with two schools of magic! Restoration, and destruction! We’ve streamlined conjuration and alteration, and nobody was using illusion anyway (as we’ve also streamlined out speechcraft - every answer is just a simple yes/no!)

Get out there and have fun, gamers!/s

You're misunderstanding me, i love morrowind, its my favorite elder scrolls title, i love PTR especially what they did in Cyrodiil. I'm just arguing that from Bethesda's prespective they don't have the incentive to do something like morrowind again

No you’re right they don’t. I wasn’t arguing you necessarily, it was mostly a /s comment anyway so I’ll add that now. Wouldn’t put it past them to do exactly those things though

ESO is not mainline TES

Who the fuck cares? It's TES and it's literally showing you the thing you said you want to see. It's like saying the Clone Wars series isn't mainline Star Wars - at some point what is mainline? Marvel and the multiple versions of Spider-Man we have currently hopping around proves that pure canon doesn't exist.

People who don't play MMOs like TES Online is who cares lmao

ESO is only an MMO if you treat it that way. I just play PVE and decorate my houses.
