Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoBorderlands: Game of the Year Edition Enhanced worked "out of the box" for me, but I had to do some things before ran the game for the first time:

---snip---

It's a good thing you put scary quotes around your out of the box, since the instructions you gave could fill an entire article. ;)

Just drop the "out of the box" if it doesn't actually work out of the box.

Quoting: subGreat! :)

Btw, do they have to pay license fees to id/Bethesda?
I know that the Quake engine is oss for a long time.
But how about commercial projects?

Quake engine is just GPL, so there are no limitations or licensing fees for commercial use. The only catch is that you need to provide the source code to the modifications you make to the engine under GPL.

Quoting: rustybroomhandleSubjective means it differs from person to person. I don't want other players to play immersive RPGs with me, because it would ruin the experience for me. You seem to be ok with it, so fine - you do you.

And, as I keep saying, the ability for me to do so doesn't harm your fun, since you can keep playing alone. Hence why I said it was an objective improvement.

Quoting: SamsaiA singleplayer game that can optionally also be played in multiplayer is objectively a better game than one that cannot

Wrong. A game designed as a single player experience doesn't automatically become better when you cram multiplayer in. Sometimes it also just doesn't work. Narratives flow with one person, but soon as a second is added you have to do weird things like partial instancing. In the case of Morrowind, I'd say the only way to make this not terrible is if one player still remains the primary one, with any additional ones being only hired help that are not allowed to talk to NPCs. Morrowind also has a finite amount of bad guys - it's not a dungeon crawler.

Also, don't say "objectively" - it's very much subjective.

When I said objectively I very much meant objectively.

Even if the multiplayer is flawed and buggy, a singleplayer game with such multiplayer has the singleplayer component and the flawed multiplayer component. This means that the people enjoying the singleplayer component get to enjoy that while those who are willing to put up with the flaws of the multiplayer system will be able to do so. The addition of the multiplayer component does nothing to harm the singleplayer component, therefore the addition of the multiplayer component can only make the product better by X amount where X >= 0.

In order for it to be subjective, the multiplayer would need to harm your experience when you want to only play the singleplayer. And considering the only price you seem to be paying here is a small amount of additional disk and RAM space being taken up, I doubt it actually affects your ability to enjoy the game.

Quoting: WorMzyI'm sure some people will enjoy this, but I can't see the point of shoehorning MP functionality into a classic SP game. Then again, I don't see the point of TES Online/Fallout 76 either. :|

A singleplayer game that can optionally also be played in multiplayer is objectively a better game than one that cannot. It's not like the OpenMW devs are sacrificing any of the things that make Morrowind good by making multiplayer possible.

Quoting: GuestYour mind is sick if you want to shoot other players with a gun. That is why Skyrim, Rift and Final Fantasy XIV are better games than those FPS games. My kid did want to have a real gun and I did build a fps gaming computer. I hope my kid have learned some empathy when my kid dies in games.

So... shooting people in-game is sick but slicing people up with swords and axes and setting them on fire or poisoning them is perfectly okay?

Alrighty, it's a good that you have a solid grasp of what is bad and what is not.

Quoting: Guestyeah i have problems
i have problems because everytime i go on internet i see words content work job content work job.

im not here for content but for information cuz there is forums and people who are on here share similar interests.
and i don't ahve negative preconceptions for word content but this word makes me feel negative.

why can't you use your brain and use different word?? why is everybody the same and uses the same words on internet? content work job??
examples:
i go on path of exile forum. people comment content and beg devs for content
i go on diablo 3 forum. people cry that blizzard dont put new content so game is crap
i go on runescape forum and read how people like the content
my friend who watches youtube all the time and youtubers he hears this word all the time and he hates this word too. it's not just me.

after seeing word content on internet trillion times in one year, it may make me feel negative. if you feel negative cuz of my posts then just ban me, and you will have your content.

I see the word "the" everywhere and I don't go on crusades to end the use of that word.

Quoting: Guestwhy can't you say if you enjoy our and use word website, and dont use word content?
if you enjoy our website

sorry word content reminds me of all these youtubers who beg people for subscriptions promising new content, it's definitely not positive thing ;/

Content is just the stuff people produce. So when Liam says "if you've enjoyed our content" it just means the stuff Liam has produced aka articles and videos. Just because you have negative preconceptions about the meaning of the word "content" doesn't mean that it's a word we should avoid.
