19:45 Saddam Blanko is no true Morrowind fan
19:45 Saddam He has no understanding of lore lore lore
19:46 Blanko Fucking lorefags
19:46 Saddam lore lore lore
19:46 Saddam It is important
19:46 Saddam Anyway, Morrowind is inferior to Skyrim
19:47 Saddam Prove me wrong
19:47 Blanko Yes
19:47 Blanko Morrowind is less casual than Skyrim
19:47 Blanko Therefore it would be inferior to casual scum such as yourself
19:47 *** pizaaaaplanet joined #theflatearthsociety
19:47 Saddam You talk to information kiosks
19:47 *** pizaaaplanet quit (Connection closed)
19:47 Saddam And the combat is nerdy dice-rolling
19:48 Saddam I bet you hated Dark Souls because there's actual skill involved in the combat
19:49 Blanko You're implying there's actual skill involved in Skyrim
19:49 Saddam Indeed
19:49 Blanko But it's the same thing
19:49 Saddam Incorrect
19:49 Blanko You click the attack button
19:49 Saddam In Skyrim, there are tactics
19:50 Blanko And if you are in range of your target, your attack connects and you deal damage
19:50 Saddam In Morrowind, it's just repeatedly hitting attack and hoping you get lucky
19:50 Saddam Also, there are too many redundant skills
19:51 Blanko In Skyrim, it's just repeatedly hitting attack and not having to care about supposedly trivial things such as character building in order to be successful
19:51 Saddam lol, "character building"
19:51 Blanko For a supposedly more action-oriented game, it actually makes no imprevement mechanically over Morrowind
19:51 Saddam You mean going to a trainer to crank up your stats?
19:52 Blanko There are no hitboxes and it's entirely range-based
19:52 Blanko And in Skyrim in specific, for some reason there's a significant amount of delay between triggering an action and the action occurring
19:54 Saddam Maybe that's because you're a PC-fag
19:55 Blanko Well, yes
19:55 Blanko Consolefags have to get used to it because it's in virtually every game
19:55 Saddam Lies
19:56 Blanko It's just what you get when your games run at 30fps
19:56 Blanko But in Skyrim, it makes no difference
19:57 Saddam Irrelevant
19:57 Blanko Well, actually it does, it's even more unbearable at 30fps
19:57 Saddam Why do characters in Morrowind talk like information kiosks?
19:57 Saddam At least Skyrim makes them seem like people
19:57 Blanko Because it's a more efficient methos of providing lore lore lore
19:57 Blanko Also, I would disagree
19:58 Saddam You select a topic and get a wall of text
19:58 Blanko Since Skyrim reuses voice actors so much, it feels like you're talking to a lot of same people a lot
19:58 Saddam That's not how people talk
19:58 Saddam Yes, but I'm talking about the writing, not Bethesda's ridiculous approach to voice acting
19:59 Blanko It's the same shit as in Skyrim
19:59 Blanko What are you talking about
20:00 Saddam In Skyrim, and even Oblivion to a degree, the dialogue seems like the way people talk
20:00 Saddam The weird menu style in Morrowind is incredibly artificial
20:01 Blanko I'm confused
20:02 Blanko First you say you're talking about the writing, now it's about menu boxes again
20:02 Saddam It's both
20:02 Saddam The writing seems designed to fit the menu style
20:02 Saddam That's why it's so weird
20:03 Blanko I don't see how
20:04 Saddam Parsifal_Droid2, weigh in on this
20:04 Blanko They say shit, and then you pick topics based on what they said
20:04 Blanko It's literally the same thing as in Skyrim and Oblivion
20:04 Saddam But it seems more like a conversation in those games
20:04 Blanko Except instead, Oblivion and Skyrim put your dialogue options in full sentences
20:05 Blanko Which I would say is worse
20:05 Blanko Because that makes it look like you don't really like to talk that much
20:05 Blanko Morrowind leaves the rest of your side of the dialogue up to abstraction
20:05 Saddam Or does it?
20:06 Blanko Yes, it does
20:06 Saddam Oh
20:06 Saddam Okay
20:06 Saddam I should get back to playing it, actually
20:06 Blanko You are defeated
20:07 Saddam I have been bested
20:08 Blanko bamboozled
