That is neat and all, but you can not mod Morrowind on Xbox.

u/CzarTyr May 21 '24

Yes but Xbox owns morrowind

You can mod it if you were an employee there.

Doubt they have the BC version of Morrowind modable on Xbox one...

u/[deleted] May 19 '24

They were an employee of the company, they most likely still have access to the codes and such

u/Laughing__Man_ May 19 '24

Again doubtful they have that just floating around to be modded for the Xbox version.

They do.. existing employees have access to the codes, no matter what. They can even have a modded version to play on.

That’s not true

does one of those "codes" happen to be up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, Start? because I have that one and it isn't letting me mod the game

Does he know he doesn't need to keep making Morrowind? Did he just not stop? Is he like that one Japanese soldier found years after World War 2?

Maybe there is no real money in modding say game and he just likes playing morrowind..?

I still play morrowind (albeit rarely) much more than oblivion and skyrim. Just like tons of people play FONV more than FO3 or FO4..

Will probably be better than actual stuff from Bethesda now.

Try it and see how long you last

I'd challenge any MW fanatic to play it Vanilla straight through lol

u/HaloFarts May 20 '24

I did this when it was added to backwards compatibility and it really isn't so bad if you give it a couple hours to immerse you and to become blind to the jank. I had an entire notebook that I used to organize my quest log lmao.

Same with people saying Star Citizen is what Starfield should have been. This coming from people that would never play either in their lives.
