Yeah I hesitated to post the video here for that reason but don't tell him

It's too late Groufac. Josh will see the thread and will be compelled to take a peek. He will be unable to refrain from clicking your link.

Dear Lord, I am happy right now Morrowind GOTY, Redguard and Battlespire available on GOG.com now!

I'm..man...that is soo cool! I never got to play Redguard or Battlespire back in the day, and now I can

I've only got one copy of Battlespire and Redguard in their original big box format so I've purchased the GOG bundle.

Great value for money.

Good grief.....how many times did you say I've purchased Morrowind in the past? That can't be right, surely.

Now I must undust the Nexus Mod Manager and search for the ultimate MOD compilation for Morrowind

I don't recall Redguard and Battlespire being very good. In fact I recall thinking they were both awful when they launched. Marrowind is still my favorite Elder Scrolls game though and at this price I'll go ahead and pick up the bundle... if nothing else as a thank you to Bethesda for supporting GoG.com. Even better you get Elder Scrolls I and II if you buy any Bethesda game before Sept. 2nd. Good times!

I can't even think of devoting time to the previous ES games yet, Lum. There's this awesome Skyrim (plus 400 mods) game where I've only scratched the surface as far as content is concerned. It obviously requires my undivided attention.

I'd leave out Nexus Mod Manager now and use Mod Organiser instead. I'm still thrilled at how my Skyrim game has remained stable, even with all the mods, when run through MO.

And you're right, Asmodai, Redguard and Battlespire were never revisited by me after the first playthroughs but it's a tidy little bundle being offered.....and it's GOG.

I really should nuke my Skyrim and start over with the whole process from scratch. May last iteration of the modded game didn't reach 100% my expectations. Maybe in my next holydays Do you mind if I ask for some advice when the time comes, Victor?

I need to start from scratch too, recently every time I try to play it, the game crashes and I only have 70 some mods now. sad to lose all those old games I have though. oh well.

Of course I don't mind, Lum.

Edit: Although I wouldn't want to do it again. There were far too many hours of work involved but the best approach for the base mods was to follow S.T.E.P. It wasn't the game I wanted to play at that stage but it was a great foundation for the later additions.

I was happy to read this news as well, as I've played only the last three Elder Scrolls games.

But I'm reading in the comments about Redguard that the implementation is not great -- apparently the graphics emulation runs the game very slowly, making it hard to play.

Definite props to GOG and Bethesda for making this happen, though. Here's hoping a patch will improve performance.

Actually, I do now remember adding Glidos to the Redguard game to improve the graphics sometime after the release and first playthrough but never got the chance to play it through properly again. I was impressed by the resulting improvements but was distracted by other games at the time so the game was abandoned.

It runs fairly well on my tower (fittingly called Orthanc). But what, Glidos looks cool. Maybe giving it a try

Thank you Victor, I'll let you know

I've modded my Skyrim like 4 times from scratch. Everytime I've learnt better ways to do so. By the third time it wasn't the prettiest but the most stable of all. There I've played the most. The last one is the pretiest of all but I feel is too heavy on my computer. Since I don't have a SDD to run games, the loading times are exasperating, to say the least. That last time I followed S.T.E.P. on its lightest version and runs smoothly at 50 fps, but those loading times... We'll see next time

Perhaps it's time for some upgrading, Lum.

I'm now using my SSD for only one game...you can guess which one. The rest of them have been installed on my WD Black HDD. I have two Asus GTX970's running in SLI mode which has made a big difference to my viewing pleasure.

I went mad this time and used the heavy version of S.T.E.P. I was going to stop at that but there were so many impressive mods absent from S.T.E.P. I decided to add them in...I found it very hard to stop.

I added another mod Gopher recommended only this morning.

I'm rather curious about Morrowind... but also wary of the 400+ hours Flat said he's sunk into the game.
