i long for the days when tes vampires were ugly mofos that could jump over houses, fly at will and crush hlaalu guards like a skull of pig with their bare hands.

like dawnguard and skyrim itself, it doesn't have a real villain. it's just some dude that attacks you for NO reason. well, actually there is, but it is badly(as in, not at all) explained and contrived as hell. so miraak is imprisoned in the tentacle dimension and can't get out unless he absorbs you're dragon soul, at least i think, because like i said: nothing tells you anything. and as anyone versed in lore could tell you, escaping/travelling from/to oblivion is not that hard. some wizards can do it at a whim, yet this superpowered quasi dawntime dragonborn, chosen of schizodragongod of time who knows a shout with 4 words(oh my god, that's like 1 more than any other! look at how badass he is! i bet he can go supersayannord aryan lvl 57!) can't? why he needs your soul is never explained, why those 50 dragonsouls he steals from you aren't enough is not explained. why he goes straight to "attack player" instead of trying dialogue first is never explained. nothing is explained in the mainquest. miraaks goals when he finally gets parole are also left to your imagination. he wants to rule solstheim, and then the world, or something.

fuck this blatant morrowind fan pandering garbage. mushrooms, ashstorms and being called "outlander" was not what made morrowind good or cool, when will that little factoid finally reach their tiny babby brains?

also: i don't remember there ever being dwemer ruins on solstheim.

i will never know i guess, Dragonborn somehow killed my SkyrimLauncher.

and no from my memories there are no Dwemer ruins on Solstheim.

Morrowind is a brilliant game. It is frightening to think that it came from the mind of Todd Howard
Don't you mean Kirkbride? He was the creative mind behind Redguard, Morrowind and Skyrim. Toddler was responsilble for the change from dungeon-crawling to open-world adventure because Ultima 7 is his favorite game and all that...

True, Todd was still in a lead design position on Morrowind though. Ultima 7 is a good game, not a bad influence to have at all. You can definitely see the Ultima influence in the Elder Scrolls series, it's just that they're too incompetent to reach anywhere near Ultima level.
