• I remember the first time I got to Vivec city in Morrowind and how astounded I was. It seemed so alien and it was really cool to see a city not built by or for humans. Now 20 years later they had the opportunity to really outdo themselves. Make it weird, make it gross, make it fantastic, even if they didn’t entirely stick the landing it would have been cool to experience a sense of wonder at what maybe the future could look like.

    They didn’t do any of that. They built the futureland section of a second rate amusement park

      It was a glorified Fallout settlement. I took one look at what was supposed to be the future capitol of space neoliberalism and never felt the temptation to play it again.
