At least we're not the Thalmor (yet)
I, as Arch-Lizard of the Ebonheart Goons, am going to decree a rule:

The abbreviation MW, by itself, shall strictly be reserved for TES3:Morrowind.

Acceptable abbreviations for ESO:Morrowind are anything like ESO:MW.

MW has always, and will forever, refer to TES3: Morrowind.

Except when it refers to Modern Warfare or MechWarrior.

But in the context of TES, Morrowind referring to a game with no context must always refer to TES3. If you want to say "Was it like this in Morrowind", you shall be assumed to refer to TES3. Not ESO:Morrowind.

Steam doesn't matter. The launcher is just fine (downloads faster than Steam does in my case) and you can add it as a non-Steam game easily

They wouldn't cash in on as much hype/nostalgia points going with Vvardenfell over Morrowind, at least that's how marketing looked at it I bet.

Also, super loving stoked as well. If nothing else, I hope the warden can summon a SWARM of cliff racers to really capture my MW days.

Pretty much. Bethesda were the ones that hosed up by calling TESIII Morrowind instead of Vvardenfell.

Also the PC collector's edition is now $79.99 if you have Prime. They messed up and weren't applying the discount earlier.

Yeah zos have really outdone themselves turning this game around. I've been having a lot of fun with this and FF14. That's not something I would have expected to say in 2010 or 2014 for both.

How are stamblades/magblades compared to magplar and stamsorc? I like my stamsorc because nothing can kill me (other than not dodging fire) and magplar just shits on everything currently, but I dunno much about nightblades.

I guess really, what is the current state of nightblade dps?

I'm okay with this if it means we get a Morrowind sized content release once a year. At the previous rate of DLC sizes it would have taken them like ten years to fill in the rest of the map. My guess is Murkmire for Q4 DLC since that's got to be pretty much done by this point.

I wonder if we're going to get those Nord-themed dungeons that were datamined a while back. I would kill for either A) A trip to Atmora, or B) An Undaunted Monster Helm in the shape of a Dragon Priest Mask.

E: Calling it now, next year's chapter will introduce Spellcrafting.

PVE stamblade is in a pretty bad spot, save for vet Malestrom where they have enough burst damage for sucess. PVP they are essentially gankers. You can still dps in 4 man dungeons, normal trials, and, yes vet trials but they are now even below stamplar imho for pve group content.

Magblades are, sadly, at the bottom of the mag dps pile, but it is a small difference. They make up for this by bringing a lot of survival and damage and, for me, are the easiest class to do vma on (yes, including magsorcs and stam sorcs). I have done all the content in the game on a Breton magblade on console, and am slowly reproducing the effort on PC. Any decent trial guild will still take the utility of a magblade (crit buff, veil, plus off heals while doing DPS) over pretty much any melee stam build.

All of them..?

I mean there's 4 classes, healers/tanks are always short, but if you don't like doing either that leaves stam/mag dps for all 4 classes.

Stamdps is behind magdps (for the most part) at the moment, but is still good.

Just depends what you wanna do, I recommend playing all 4 classes a little and see what you like.



v--- I love my stamsorc, my dps is lower than other stamdps (also suboptimal race pick) but since I (almost) never die, it ends up being fairly even because idiots running 15khp and no selfheal eat poo poo.

Reinstalled this dumb game because expansion hype is A Thing™. Also got a friend to buy it. Did they make Sorc bubble-tanking a thing? Last time I played I think it had been nerfed pretty hard. Still leveling because I level at a glacial pace.
