Paying homage to favorite old mods? |
|
Are we at all interested in doing little nods here and there to some of
our favorite, famous old Morrowind mods? I'm thinking the really old
ones where the author is no longer a part of the community / can't be
reached to be asked to re-make the mod for Oblivion and things like
that... Not massive mods of course, but little favorites... for
instance, the little mercenaries for hire station in the Balmora
fighters guild... or the Salty Goblin pub in Suran...
...Thoughts?

I think that if we did this, it should be, as you said, subtle. If the
mods added something major, it would be best if we did away with
anything more than a passing reference. We need to compile a list
first, so I'll start one.
Oluhan (I never finished the last few quests, but it was awesome.
Obviously, we couldn't remake the whole ruin, but if it was closed off,
perhaps the stone teleportation monument still exists near Vos. We'd
need no explanation whatsoever as to what it was or why it no longer
worked.)
Suran Underworld (This one would be more complex, but perhaps there can
be a reference to a criminal syndicate operating in Suran that was
taken out by the Cammona Tong several years back. If we wanted to do
that, perhaps I could put an updated version of the sewers into Suran,
but as I said, that one would be more complicated.) |

I dunno... stuff like Oluhan and Suran Underworld are a whole lot
bigger in scope than what I was thinking... I was thinking about little
things like The Salty Goblin which is just one little pub, or the
mercenary hiring center which is just a new little addition to the
Balmora Fighter's Guild... Oluhan and Suran Underworld's authors are
still around though so we could always contact them to invite them to
add their own references or recreations to their mods in ours.
