Hi folks!
First of all I would like to say that I am brand new to this site. However, I have had previous accounts under different names on Steam and the Nexus. I have been lurking around this site as an "anonymous" since I am a huge fan of the Elder Scrolls games. I started with Oblivion first and then Skyrim which was my long time love and still is. Sadly, I burned out Skyrim and it's DLC's and mods, so I wanted to try a new game. So it was that I turned to Morrowind.
It's unique nature and devoted fans appealed to me but I could not bring myself to play it due to its out-dated graphics, ugly interface, and no voice acting. I know many of you will cry treachery at that but those are my views. Needless to say, I have a brief question about Skywind since I made an account here and bought it off Steam for the very first time just to try out this mod and see if the rumors were true.
So far, I am very impressed with the screen shots and video walkthroughs. But I still have a couple of questions. First, will this conflict with my games in Skyrim? For example, I have several different games in Skyrim and I use a mod to load different saves of those games. In other words, if I start a new game of Skywind will that ruin all my previous games in Skyrim? Secondly, will I be able to travel from Morrowind/Skywind to Skyrim?
Also, will I be able to bring things (e.g. armor, weapons, potions, magic, followers, etc) from Skyrim to Morrowind? I saw one video where a guy started a new game in Skywind so I was just curious if any of this is possible. Also, I am new here so I apolagise if this is the wrong place for this topic or if it has already been asked. I read the FAQ but it didn't answer these questions. So enough rambling on my part and I eagerly await your answers on these matters.
Many thanks in advance!
P.S. If this has already been asked before, than please point me in the right direction and I shall head over to that thread and delete this one if that's possible. Or you guys can close it and give me the link to that thread or whatever. Also, any advice for a newcomer to Morrowind would be greatly appreciated!
no, yes, yes, kind of, apology accepted
Skywind is like an unofficial DLC. You would be able to travel between the two provinces, yes. Also, the game Morrowind only has the central island Vvardenfell, Solstheim and Mournhold. Despite its name, it doesn't include the entire Morrowind province. Secondly, there are too many cliff racers in Morrowind and you will be fighting waves after waves of them. Thirdly, you won't be able to join all the factions as you can choose only one Great House without cheating so Skywind will have opportunities for many playthroughs.
Despite the game's narrow scope, you will find the world to be big anyway and the map is huge. There are many secrets and you can neglect to notice an artifact if you didn't search well enough. And even with quest markers and fast travel, there are still some difficult puzzles to solve which will require thinking. Morroblivion didn't have quest markers for every single quest so the figuring out where to go could still exist in Skywind. So I hope you enjoy your time! :)
Skywind is the modification for Elder Scrolls V where the amazing world of Scroll III is merged with some enhanced graphics in it.
