The MMORPG genre might be “working as intended,” but it can be so much more. Join Massively Overpowered Editor-in-Chief Bree Royce in her Working As Intended column for editorials about and meanderings through MMO design, ancient history, and wishful thinking. Armchair not included.
Last Mod question, when messing with mods in morrowind can you add mods once your game is started and let say the game crashed and you have to reinstall is your save game history ?
actually trying to do what this guy has going https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVvSiiEbtuQ&t=2446s
You can add new mods mid-game, yep. It’s not as safe as not adding them, ofc, but it’s usually OK. Where you run into trouble is pulling mods OUT of a game. Sometimes it’s fine, but sometimes it can corrupt your game (then again, sometimes sneezing can corrupt your game — Morrowind is not known for its stability :D). Wrye Mash does have a tool to help you clean your save games of removed mods, so that’s always worth a go too.
Thanks again
Great video, thank you. I love the look of Leaf Rest, I might have to dust off Skyrim and check it out :)
Used to have a ship-home in Morrowind. You could actually sail it around the sea. Oh my, what an ingenious mod. Sure, sometimes it would glitch and just sail from under you, dropping you into the sea… but still! A ship!
That was a great video! Thanks.
Yes enjoyed the vid more please!
Needs more sweetrolls and cheese wheels.

“Ah yes, I approve this patch.”
I have always loved housing in TES, and I’m not really a play house kind of guy…right now I’m having a devil of a time deciding on which house I want for ESO….I’m leaning toward the Daggerfall manor it looks like somewhere a Vampiric assassin would live
My Skingrad house in Oblivion was a work of art.
That one day, unfortunately, put all my expertly placed collectibles on the floor after they exploded out of their cases.
Really great video, Bree.
Question for any Skyrim players out there: do any current housing mods feature anything like the Alchemist Hidden Valley from a few years ago? (http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/30545/?) This was my favorite mod but it hasn’t been updated in a long time. It was a crafter’s dream, and its Teleportation Door and Bag of Holding Chest were pretty awesome (although cheaty).
Adventurer’s Basement may be what you are looking for.
Thank you, I will check that out!
