Morrowind Rebirth Receives A Mammoth Update

Imagine The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind but only better and more balanced. That’s Morrowind Rebirth for you. It is a mod that was developed by Trancemaster in 2011 that rebuild The Elder Scrolls III to revamp the gaming experience.

In its nine years of existence, Morrowind Rebirth has been subjected to frequent updates that fix and add various features to the game.

Now as a part of update v5.3, Morrowind Rebirth will house another set of changes and improvements.

“This time I’ve spent most of my time building a more believable worldspace, so you can expect to see a LOT of changes in that department.”

One major thing players will notice is a difference in the arrangement of landscapes and buildings. Taking Seyda Neen for example, instead of on a pile of rock near the town, the lighthouse will now be situated on a separate island.

Suran settlement also underwent a complete makeover and wooden bridges will also now be a part of the ashland that lies in the middle of Seyda Neen and Hla Oad.

Another difference to be noted in the gameplay is that you can steal inexpensive items and shopkeepers won’t try to attack. Although if you keep on committing such deeds, then the owners charge at you.

Here is a list of fixes that the new mod update will bring:

Morrowind Fixes

• Fixed an issue where Ogrims wasn’t in the daedric leveled lists (like all other daedra).
