I found that it is actually pretty much mandatory. Really world shattering when you can pretty much see every single location when you go up a mild hill. The slow movement speed disguised how small the game actually was.
If I've mucked around with both Oblivion and Skyrim in 3rd person, will I find Morrowind playable in 3rd person too (as in not too frustrating) ?

Real curious to see how this performs on XB1 and the X. KOTOR, even with some variance, benefited a lot from 60fps because of the original's uncapped framerate.

Right but the video is capped at 30fps. Morrowind was unlocked on Xbox so things might turn out real smooth.
I've been pretty down on MS this generation, but their BC work has been amazing. I think it's going to finally get me to upgrade to the X.
Thats it lol...too many of those.
Oh so the enhanced is 4 GB instead of 1...nice.
Yes i'm on the X. Also the EU version if that makes a difference.

Protip: For new people starting out, you probably want to head to Vivec City and pick up the spells to restore your stats.
Like, all of them.
Because holy fuck are some enemies annoying without that.

60FPS with drops on the original Xbox One. Put my disc in and it downloaded. a bit over 1GB in the US.
Looked great as well. Excited to jump in.

I always steal a bunch of shit from the general store in Seyda Neen with the jumping trick, grab the axe from the stump by the lighthouse, and at least go up the road to grab the wizard's stuff.
I guess I should have clarified "after Seyda Neen" :P
Cheat codes for anyone who wants them, translated to the bumpers since there are no black/white buttons:
NOTE: You have to highlight the stat you want to use the code for. After you type in the code, immediately press A. While holding A, back out of the stats menu and the effect will still be active. There are two caveats. First, if you navigate to any other item on your stats page, or any other page in your B menus, you will have to reapply the code. You also cannot apply any of these codes without having already lost any health/magicka/stamina.
Unlimited Stamina Regen: RB, RB, LB, LB, RB
Unlimited Health Regen: RB, LB, RB, RB, RB
Unlimited Magicka Regen: RB, LB, LB, RB, LB

Apologies for the double post, but this one doesn't fit with my last one.
Here's my build.

Looks great. Can't believe that's an OG Xbox game. And 60fps? Pretty awesome.

Added to the OP, thanks for pointing them out!
If you're playing this for the first time you should check out the map online somewhere. The game came with a physical map that was really detailed and nice-looking and was very, very useful for navigating the roads and wilderness. It has all the dungeons and towns and everything drawn and labeled. One of the coolest and most practical physical maps that's ever come with a game IMO.
There are some dips here and there, but for the most part, it's pretty solid.
Can you become a werewolf or vampire in this?

Tbh, it's much more prevalent on the console/casual sites like these.
I have Morrowind on PC, but it's one of those games I just can't get my head around to playing. And I adore playing og DE and System Shock 2. I wonder if this version could do the trick... if I had an Xbox
Thanks :)
Widescreen and a patch to increase the draw distance would be most welcome.
I thought some OG Xbox games supported widescreen?
Nope. No such system exists where that would be remotely possible.

Reminds me that, now with Morrowind, all 3 console Elder Scrolls games are now on a modern machine and running with an X update.
Not too shabby.
For a while now it's possible to play this gem on your Android phone. What a time to be alive! https://forum.openmw.org/viewtopic.php?t=4898
After a bit of playing around with the visibility slider it's pretty playable on my cheap Xiaomi Redmi Note 4.

My tip for all the new players is to NOT LOOK UP ANYTHING. No guides, no easy to obtain powerful items. The game is designed for you to explore on your own. There is almost nothing pushing you in any direction in the game, and that's one of the its strongest qualities. Don't ruin it by looking up power-leveling, exploits, and easily obtained artifcats. Discover them on your own, if you can.
