I'm cross that oblivion got a remake but not morrowind. If they made morrowind but made actual combat animations instead of "lol u miss" "lol u sure suck at destruction spells" i think it would be a lot more popular with the youngins.

I agree that it deserves it more, but I don't agree that I think they'd improve it. We'd get higher quality models and textures, and maybe an improved lighting solution, but I think they'd mess up the game. They'd simplify it. Also, they'd probably make a unified UI with consoles, like the later games have, and not have the very good UI we have for PC Morrowind.

I really like the spell failure chance. It was a lot of fun making wild ass spells that had like a 50-75% chance of working. Getting one of those to pop off in a fight just felt so satisfying compared to the instant gratification you get for casting spells now.

I'd really like to see more spellmaking options, like the option to set the mana used for the spell, where setting less increases the failure chance, but using more makes the spell more reliable. Or maybe let the player add failure effects (like burden, paralysis, summon hostile creatures, bounce back..etc) for a reduction in spell failure chance.

Oh yeah im 100% with you, I was just thinking instead or saying "lol no" your fingers got burned or a little fizzle and pop or something. With the attacking instead of popping up "your attack missed" have the enemy dodge, or your sword clearly fumbles.

Still have the same chance in the background just have it play out properly visually.
