Ah, thank you for waiting. elder scrolls 6 (opens in new tab), finally here, six months before Starfield launches. All my favorites are here: The Master Chief John 117, An immortal destroy golem powered by duke (opens in new tab), Accuracy International Arctic Warfare Magnum. British post-punk legend and Sisters of Mercy frontman Andrew Eldritch. Wrong he could have gotten Elder Scrolls 6.

Courtesy of Nexus modder stupid cat girl (opens in new tab), The Elder Scrolls 6 presents a bold vision of the long-awaited open-world RPG. Stupidcatgirl’s previous work includes: Morrowind 2 (opens in new tab)the beloved sequel to Morrowind, and Morrowind 666 (opens in new tab)which is like Morrowind from Hell, and we can see elements of these projects in The Elder Scrolls 6.
Uninstalled a mod that completely removes Vvardenfell (opens in new tab) And reloaded my lobbying Breton Mage and his nifty Colobian Far Helm into the source port OpenMW. When I first exited the Balmora Mage’s Guild, I found myself trapped in the geometry of the world. That’s okay, party foul on my part. This time we reloaded and walked out the top door into a new Xbox-themed utopia, Dwemora.
Microsoft stormtroopers patrol the streets, neon signs advertise Xbox and Game Pass, and giant black and green Numidium and Lorkhan centers tower from the center of town.Honestly, Sony should use this as proof of their continued sparring with Microsoft in the EU over the ActiBlizz deal—it seems corporate level of conversation (opens in new tab) Anyway, we settled on this one.
One thing I really want to shout out is that stupid cat girl enshrines a great classic RPG here. Dwemora has a big old-school Black Isle Studios billboard, and amidst the complete cacophony of the mod’s custom soundtrack, I’ve detected journal-updated sound effects from Planescape: Torment and Vampire colon. The Masquerade em dash Bloodlines (opens in new tab)Cue Leo DiCaprio points at the screen and easily pleases.
I took Oblivion Gate into everyone’s favorite metaphysical realm of eternal torment to discover what feels like a sort of crappy version of Planescape: the torment area? Caius Cosades, the armor-clad Chadian-chadified immortal Caius Cosades, a “Hall of Sinners” filled with naked NPCs parroting what appears to be real negative user reviews for Morrowind, a book poking Contains Hermaeus Mora’s library. Fun with different characters from Elder Scrolls YouTubers Mickey D. (opens in new tab) To Deadwood showrunner David Milch.

I really liked Sheogorath’s rendition as a “laughable” early character, but then murdered by his no-nonsense alter-ego, Jiggarag.
At this point, I was knocked out to the Mages Guild of Balmora, so I turned on cheats and used the tools. After accidentally pressing “Take All” with thousands of pounds of real-world firearms and uprooting myself with an obstacle, I had to painstakingly empty my inventory. It was a highlight for me, and I appreciated the nuanced and culturally sensitive portrayal of the silly cat girl in Britain.

I honestly don’t have enough space or time to document all of the shit here, but it’s beautiful to me. Morrowind modding is a really weird and wonderful rabbit hole, stuffed with everything from a real stab. Expansion and activation of content (opens in new tab) Now go to McDonald’s (opens in new tab)It may not be the actual Elder Scrolls 6, but I doubt The Elder Scrolls 6 has anything that comes close to the charm of The Elder Scrolls 6’s cryptic, cryptic outsider art.
