Let's Play Morrowind - 01 - Nothing Lasts Forever 

If you are seeing this video and thinking. "Hey this video is Seven years old, I'll pass." Then you will be sorely missing out on a great story and let's play. Dave truly creates a character that you will get to know the ins and outs of, and how this character's unique personality affects they're every decision. Give it a go, you will be watching it for quite a while, and its a good ride. Leave a comment when you make it to the end of the series.

Man. I didn't realize how long ago the start of this series was. I was 19 when this came out. I was over 400ibs, in a mental downward spiral, without a job, no money,living in my family's house that was getting foreclosued and one bad day away from going crazy. Today I'm the breadwinner in my family, I'm under 350, I saved my house, I've been to therapy to help with my cocktail of mental issues and I have a support system of friends and people who I've let get close to me. This series really helped me back then and now I'm watching it again. This channel didn't save me but it sure did help me through a bad time.

"Solstheim is one of the cooler parts of this game," "This dagger ain't gonna cut it," the puns are real.

Warms my heart to see people still enjoy this amazing game :)

a backstabbing political savant with the initials FU, trying to ascend the political ladder on a quest for revenge?. Well played Dave, well played

"I just plucked it off the Tamriel Rebuilt name generator" And thus, with these words, a legend was born.

"it may crash and burn..." Well, here we are 5 years later with one of the best let's plays on all of RU-vid!

LPing Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim at the same time? Yeah, why the fuck not.

"I'm sure they will let me go, I dunno about you" They also let him out and he also goes on an adventure, cleans Vvardenfell of every single Cliff Racer and is proclaimed by both the Tribunal temple and the New Temple as Saint Jiub the Eradicator

> I have no idea how long this is gonna go it could explode upon loading it up... > Third season literally began today, 4 years later.

I first played Morrowind in 2004, when my parents divorced. This game helped me to cope, and really got me into RPGs. Since then, I have put thousands of hours into each of Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim. While the graphics and combat system has not aged well at all, it is still my favorite game and, in my opinion, the best of the Elder Scrolls games. It is so good to see a proper Let’s Play of this spectacular game. This series will be such a nostalgia trip. Well done sir!

Sellus Gravius: "Nothing wrong with your head, is there? The men said you were acting a little strange when they brought you in." (Later at the tavern) Guard: "I swear, I just asked his name, and he just stood there in silence, slowly morphing between races and genders for fifteen minutes."

Holy shit I just relized that fallout three birthday party with the tunnel snakes as kids trying to take your sweet roll is a reference to morrowind

You probably have the most enjoyable laugh and giggle ever. Continue laughting, saves children.

I don't remember using teleportation, but there I was, naked.

“This is gonna be a long ass lets play” you don’t say 5 years later still going

One hour of Morrowind, Jingles, cursing and n'wah's. Such wonder is unheard of.

Rewatching from the beginning since Dave hasnt active in awhile. Probably one of the best RU-vidrs in my opinion. He could do an episode of Morrowind while reading the phonebook and I'd still be engaged in the LP.

Can’t believe it’s been 7 years.. such an amazing tale. You are a fantastic story teller, I can’t wait till the next one!

From one student to another.. your LPs are the only ones I bother to watch (seriously) and I find the perspective you bring to TES to be interesting, hilarious and at times, inspiring. I'm super happy you're doing Morrowind so please keep it up!! Thanks, Nico

Your character is a Dark Elf therefore he must of been in that dungeon at least over a hundred years. That has got to be horrible...

"Everything takes a long time in Morrowind" Speedrun world record is 3 minutes...

Can't believe it's been so many years. I found this LP by chance, not being able to sleep i thought to myself 'hey it'd be really nice to find a person who is actually passionate about this game that followed me throughout my childhood' and here i arrived.. and dear me do i not have any regrets.. just leaving this here, hope you keep doing what you're doing Dave. Easily the best LP i have had the pleasure to watch, and frankly the most fortunate find of a channel for me. Cheers.

Thanks for making these! Started with Oblivion on the PC back in 2006 but this is a great way to see what all the fuss was about with Morrowind, thanks for reading the books out loud and giving a background to the storyline as well.

Started tearing up when I saw this in my feed. Cried when I saw how long it was.

I've never subscribed quicker. M favorite game of all time. Thank You

OMG YES! Glad to see you finally do more videos of Morrowind!

Just want to say Dave, I'm enjoying the shit out of watching ALL of your "Let's play" vids. It's how I've been relaxing after many hard days recently. Please keep them going! Cheers

The pandemic has me binge watching Dave’s content and riding the nostalgia train 🚂

Fun lore fact, Vvardenfell is Dwemeri for Heartfall as Vvardenfell is where Lorkhan’s heart landed after being thrown into the sea. Similar to how Hammerfall was originally called Volenfell meaning Hammerfall in Dwemeri as it’s where Volendrung landed after the Dwemer threw it to find a new land to settle.

I used to watch another RU-vidr’s let’s plays of this game. I keep coming back to this one though. I find comfort in watching familiar let’s plays especially those with heavy roleplay/story engagement and those where the RU-vidr has a calmer voice. Helps me relax or multi-task for a variety of activities. I will admit I’ve fallen asleep to the Fathis epic several times over the years though I’ve gotten pretty good about rewinding and catching up on where I left off!

Ah man, I've been sick the whole day today and grumpy but once you started talking about two great Morrowind overhauls at the beginning and the fact that you tried to just throw them at each other and see what happens made me lmao! Thanks! :D

Has it truly been almost six years?

Do you people think I'm bored out of my mind for starting to watch this LP for the THIRD time? Edit: now, 2 years later, for the 5th time. Dave, you're my favorite let's player, because you not play only rpgs, but because this rogs are the true diamonds among the ocean of rpgs out there, and Morrowind, with and without ad-ons, is in my opinion the best out of the Elder Scrolls.

Dave I am so glad you are doing this LP; Morrowind remains my favorite of the Elder Scrolls series for a number of reasons; the depth and complexity of it's writing and story, the harshness of it's game system (at first), and all the RPG "fiddly bits" that have been stripped out of later titles. I hope you do take a long time with this LP, and am looking forward to watching this LP play out-cheers!

I am so hyped for this! Dave you are literally the very best.

yet another LP i will follow religiously, and another character i will undoubtedly fall in love with. keep up the great work dave.

I remember introducing my older cousin to this game, he was amazed by it.

I love that you put effort into the role playing part and gave your character a background story

Dude. You are so fucking awesome. Thank you. This is my favorite game ever.

can't believe this game came out 13 years ago...

Amazing game. Started playing it again a month ago, and hooked! So much bigger then Oblivion and Skyrim

I have been waiting for this ever since I found your channel!

i knew i subbed for a good reason youve got everything i would like to watch!!! thank you !

This videos four years old today and I remember watching this when it first came out

Growing up in the cotton belt with parents who were born in the 40s and knew fuck all about computers or gaming (seriously I taught them how to work the VCR at age 3...), I was never fornunate enough to get to play Morrowind, and hadn't really gotten into RPGs until a few years ago. I'm actually surprised I turned out to be a gamer at all. Regardless, it should be interesting to see this game play out, so I look forward to it!

Yes! I love your channel! Thanks so much doing this LP!

The test is like taking the G.O.A.T. Thanks SD glad you started this Let's Play!

Fathis, eh? Seems to be a common Dunmer name, kinda like "John" or "Steve".

One of my favorite games of all time ! Love it

Every now and then I rewatch this series, brings back so many memories, of a simpler time, of the long-long ago.

Brilliant to have you back Dave, I've just started playing Morrowind myself so I'm really excited about this lets play! Your vids convinced me to buy both Morrowind and Oblivion, I've played Skyrim for about a year now but I'm really enjoying the older games.

"He's gonna climb his way up the greasy pole."

Oh I hope I can play this game one day, it seems so damn awesome.

You deserve millions of subs I love your videos. They've kept me company while working from home lol.

coming back to rewatch this all AGAIN. My favorite series of all time on youtube.

Oh joy, can't wait to wait months on end for new episodes of this series... In all seriousness, I'm fairly excited to see this. I can't play Morrowind personally, so watching it should be interesting.

Your evil sort of chuckle when you mentioned taking dead guys clothes was glorious :P Good to see that almost a decade later Morrwind is still very much alive an kicking, not as much as Skyrim.. but it was at it's time a very niche game, but damn Vvardefell takes me back, was so young I had to ask my mum to go on the computer for an hour after I had done my homework haha :p I hope the Sky-Wind project pulls through and is just as good as Morrowind, though I definitely do not miss the god damn Dice roll attacking of 100x misses to every single low damage hit :L

I have to say I wasn't expecting subscribing to the maker of a video I was watching to tell if I wanted the game, but here I am!

Best lets play ever. Only ever gotten through volume 3 lol. There's so much to this game, especially with your amazing mod list. If you want a series to get hooked on, this is surprisingly it.

YES!!!!!!!!!! I was gonna go to bed but... I have to watch this now!!!

Dave for the missing table go into your Morrowind folder and delete the Morrowind\Meshes\f\Furn_De_Table_03.NIF file. For MGSO and Morrowind Rebirth to work together try to deactivate the some mods of MorrowindRebirth and MSGO.

I just found your most recent oblivion playthrough and decided to check out your other stuff. Decided to watch in order if possible and enjoying this so far!

My fave let's play of all time. Time fore a rewatch, I think. :)

5:26 Skipperino at your service!

The Horn of Jingles SorcererDave shall sound in the deep... One last time. Let this be the hour when we watch Morrowind together. Fell deeds awake. Now for wrath, now for ruin, and the red dawn! Forth, Eorlingles!

This cropped up in my feed today. It's fascinating to think that Fathis' story has been going for five YEARS! That's some dedication both your part and the part of the viewers.

Now this is Amazing watching you and ***** back and forth on Skyrim and Morrowind nothing is better!

The most exciting part was when I scrolled down and realised 200,000 people have viewed this haha. Amazing

20:25 Tunnel snakes rule

And you are already aiding me with getting through the game. Actually writing a backstory first complete with a personality gives a focus and sense of direction, which is fortunate since it is very easy to get lost in this massive game.

i enjoy when you talk more than play the actual game... so very entertained.

The hype Is so real right now.

Dave I must warn you, I played almost the exact same character as you a few months ago with completing the house Hlaalu quests in mind but was pretty disappointed. Other than one small collection of quests (that tbh won't even fit your character) hlaalu isn't too fun. You are used as an errand boy and nothing else. I would strongly suggest Telvanni instead. Think about it. Already they are of the same mind set as you. Just as grumpy and cold. However your advantage is that instead of rising to power of the strongest of the three houses with force, you can introduce the Telvanni to your "democratic" imperial ways. A technique that will be much less effective to hlaalu anyway from all their dealings with the imperial colonists. Hope you read this in time, only mention all this because if I remember rightly you never tried hlaalu.

Thank You for inspiration, Dave! Very nice playtrough. Inspired me to try out Morrowind Rebirth, I didn't try it before. Russian splashscreens made me smile a bit. )

Seven years, Fathis. Guess it's time to begin again. Gotta re-experience the origin of the absolute LEGEND!!! Thanks again for the journey.

And it's here, and this is gonna be awesome.

I immersed in the series with Oblivion. Now I want to come back and play Morrowind to get a full picture. Do you think it's still relevant?

Thanks for the new series, Dave!

Great playthrough your comments are dialogue make it more fun to watch XD. Makes me want to play morrowind myself with a gtx 1080 lol

"Nothing lasts forever" except your Morrowind playthrough.

It took you 13 minutes to start. Dave, 13 minutes.

I've never actually seen this LP or any Morrowind LP. I just finished your Skyrim let's play last night so I guess I'll watch this now.

Wow. This was a part of my childhood. I was 16 or so when I Jets discovered this. I'm about to turn 23 now. Freakin awesome! Amazing series

Know this is an old video and you're unlikely to read this but I wanted to say thanks because I discovered Baldurs Gate through you. Glad I came.

Finally

just finished watching your LP of Modded Oblivion, now moved on to Morrowind, decided to subscribe. (Y)

Honestly, any modded Morrowind installation (any modded game that's about 10 years old, really. God help my Baldur's Gate installation) is held together with prayers and duct tape. Nothing else can really be said. Love the game, love the commentary, and have been very much looking forward to this for a long time.

I remember when this came out, I was in Grade 5. I was 10 years old. I'm 17 now. Might as well rewatch greatness again.

2020?

sorcerer Dave I know you made this vid over a year ago however may I say that you are my favorite youtuber and that you deserve way more subs I love the effort you put into your videos I'm just pointing out that I support you all the way

Just starting this let's play for a second time now. It's one of my all time favorites and just really for comfort. It's funny though how your voice changed over the years. But still you can hear some familiar aspects in it. ^^ Happy to follow Fathis along for a second time. :>

If you give Fargoth the ring you can get it back shortly via a quest which I believe the quest giver is in the second floor of the general store

EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL

I loved the intro and can't wait to enjoy this let's play, it's really long lol

This is looking like a candidate for the longest 'Lets Play' on RU-vid.

Maybe its me but Juib sounds like he would make a great ghoul.

Oh look! It's the only actual Elder scrolls game that is worth praise without mods. Glad to see your "coming soon" wasn't a lie this time and a hour long episode. :)

I have just started playing Morrowind again but keep restarting as I am the most indecisive character creator ever, so I appreciate this series as I will probably see the end of this character!

Playing this on my Galaxy S7 via OpenMW. Which is great btw. Believe it plays in 1080p with Upscaled graphics and such. Enjoyed watching your video! Added this let's play series to my Playlist. Also great commentary. You earned a sub mate! Edit: it runs pretty flawless on my phone. Thought Touch controls would be horrible but the dev or whatever responsible behind OpenMW did a great job with everything with the UI to make it compatible for smartphones or other similar devices. Experienced one lag spike in Balmora when it was raining and there were a lot of NPCs in one general cell but besides that I have it set on high graphics. Pretty amazed to be honest.
