Today we talk about 5 quests in Morrowind that take you on a grand, epic journey. I selected these 5 as personal favorites.
"Mystery of the Dwarves" probably had most impact on me. Like I said in the video, I always viewed it as Morrowind's "secret" or "unofficial" main quest. Well, even the main quest revolves around ancient dwemer mysteries, so it makes sense.
As for characters, morally bankrupt Louis Beauchamp definitely takes the cake. I really wonder what inspired an author to create such a character.
I also used Voices of Vvardenfell mod to voice over NPC dialogues (link at the bottom). Originally, I "voice acted" them but then I remembered the mod. Thought it would be cool to hear dialogues directly from characters.
I also made a prolonged trailer intro, which I didn't plan but during the editing I kinda just made it. Sort of a celebration of my channel reaching 1k subs.
And speaking of it, thank you all for supporting the channel! Hope you like the video. Btw. I'll be making more lists like this one, so make sure to subscribe for more!

Don't forget the grandest quest of all, collecting clutter for the Tribunal guy, the Nerevarine visiting every trader in Morrowind fully geared for battle to ask if they have a red plate for sale.

I did the silent pilgrimage by offering a levitation potion to that shrine in Vivec temple. Flew all the way over Vvardenfell, its a great quest.

... yeah when I did that as a kid I assumed you couldnt cast spells as you where barred from "talking" with anyone. So I ran and jumped the entire way without casting a spell or talking to anyone it was quite something as a kid

@ilari90 9 ай бұрын

I do it like that always, or going to dagon fel leaving a mark, but i appreciate this method of just doing it "right" and walking there. Once I flew there with levitation, was pretty battered by cliffracers, went to the shag the monk is in, and tried to sleep on her bed, it was a crime, got me kicked out of the order and such, had mark in vivec so it was unnecessary to sleep there too :D

@evannlorman7926 3 ай бұрын

See I thought about doing that, but I ended up just casting levitate spells the whole time. My other thought was just casting water walking and using the Boots of Blinding Speed and running around the west side of the map.

@mauruhkatigaming4807 5 ай бұрын

I love the personal dynamics at work in the Disappearance of the Dwarves task. Trebonius is an incompetent administrator, promoted beyond his capabilities due to his talent as a sorcerer, who sends you on a snipe hunt. Edwinna Elbert has enthusiasm going for her but is ultimately a dilettante, who doesn't even know just how much she doesn't know. Baladas, funnily enough, gives you a more detailed answer than the actual Yagrum Bagarn will, as he is an enthusiastic scholar rather than the last survivor left after Kagrenac's experiments. He therefore doesn't share Yagrum's reluctance to talk about it, even though Yagrum is surely more knowledgable - he is, after all, skilled enough to make Wraithguard work even if you've killed Vivec.

the mead hall massacre has probably the best reward in Morrowind not the 50 septims a week you get by owning the mead hall, but the great singing Nord thag welcomes you every time also the breton scholar and sleepy nord captain surving the attack by being in their rooms and later guarding the hall was a nice touch

Ennbjofs burial is a quest I still remember very very distinctly, from needing the matze to the the secret armor, the layout of getting to the ship. And that's over 20 years later. Morrowind was such a a masterpiece. I also always remember stealing from all the house vaults in vivec.

I don't think TR will have a main quest. It will have several questlines, attached to the houses, maybe with capstone quests with higher stakes, but no main quest per se -- but I am not a TR dev, so take this with a grain of salt.

@@goncalorodrigues1964 I am a TR dev and that was an accurate summary. TR will have a bit of epilogue for the main quest in addition to that, but yeah Morrowind's main quest was released by Bethesda, we don't need another. P:C and S:HotN seem like they will have more political main quests which trigger after you ascend the ranks of a great house equivalent.

Dorisa Darvel, Balmoras bookseller will lead you in Baladas direction. As will the Telvanni-fraction questline. At least one npc will say something unasked or hint you with the latest rumours about Morrowinds most hidden secrets. You have to read carefully to become aware of Boethiah‘s sunken shrine, already in Arrille’s tradehouse, for example.

I couldn't help but laugh at the crazy way you approached the silent pilgrimage quest. All you had to do was walk around the corner to the Tribunal shrine and sacrifice a levitation potion as you had already done to complete the Pilgrimages of the Seven Graces. The levitation spell that you are then blessed with boosts your flying speed and lasts long enough to fly above the range of cliff racers all the way to Sanctus shrine and then on to Falas Maryon where the master alchemy teacher resides. If you don't buy training you can place a Mark and then fly on to the Urshilaku camp so you can add the location to your map (don't forget to buy the Propylon Index) then fly to Gnisis and Silt Stride back to Vivec City. The whole journey takes less than a day!

@bravemoon2124 7 ай бұрын

Mostly I used the levitation altar for the silent pilgrimage. Combined with the boots of Blinding speed and the Savior’s hide (to reduce blindness to a minimum), the levitation effect was so strong, you could reach the island in like 5 minutes. But as I grew older I started to value precious moments, so later I preferred doing the pilgrimage the hard way: walking on foot and meditating just like you said.

The one flaw with the idea of Dwemmer Airships is that those guys really didn't leave their mountains all that much. Maybe for short trips between their cities. It could be the one ruin in Skyrim, that had the large, above ground, spire may have used them, but I don't see them being wide spread or highly utilized by them.

The Airships are interesting. Because we see crashes of them twice now. But it seems like one of those things that gets mentioned but will never be in the games. Like going all the way back to Arena they had a question for character generation about Telepaths. Which stuck through all the way to Morrowind. But you never actually run into a Telepath really (with a few dubious questions that I might count like Lu'ah al-Skaven in Skyrim, who communicates with you through the dungeon? But they never frame that up as Telepathy). Similarly even with the next game supposedly being in the Illiac Bay again, I don't expect to see Redguard Swordsingers. Or Airships. Or Telepaths. Sad. It's almost more intriguing because they don't actually show it off. But since the concepts keep being mentioned and (in a limited sense) shown off... I often wonder if it's even a real thing in setting (in regards to Telepathy or Swordsingers and such). Or if it's just some flight of fancy people have in Tamriel about it. Entirely fictional to the setting with some people convinced there is a "Real" version there.
