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.

I was trying to get a OpenMW mod list running but I can't figure out how to get the file merger to work and I'm kinda loathe to have to redo the whole 100+ mods by following the 6 1/2 hour long tutorial video. I'm now playing Salt and Sanctuary which is a 2D Souls like that's been sitting in my library for a couple years.

100+ mods? OpenMW is good enough as is, just enjoy the game!

Open MW, Tamriel Rebuilt, Julan - Ashlander Companion (optional, but very good. builds upon the main quest), Graphic Herbalism, Less Generic NPCs and Brother Junipers Twin Lamps mod

and you're all set.
