Morrowind Overhaul Version 2.0 Coming This Christmas

Ah, Skyrim. Such an amazing game and yet we haven’t covered it in our performance analysis section. There is a reason to that and that’s obviously due to some mods that we are really looking forward to. Then again, our GTX295 is not powerful enough to handle most of the high-resolution textures so we’d be limited by its low vRam. Add to this that Bethesda didn’t send us a review code and that we need to cover first Serious Sam 3 and there you have it. And while most of you are already enjoying this RPG, some modders felt the need to return and overhaul – for one more time – Bethesda’s previous gem. Yeap, that’s right everyone; Morrowind is about to get another big overhaul this Christmas. Continue reading Morrowind Overhaul Version 2.0 Coming This Christmas
