Morrowind Gave Me Childhood Trauma

Morrowind was a big part of my childhood, but unfortunately it also scarred me a little bit.

The first time I played Morrowind I dumped the documents you're supposed to give to Caius Cosades out in the wilderness in order to make place for a nice silver bowl I found.

How Oblivion scares me to this day:
The jumpscare dialogue interactions, especially when you don't know an NPC is coming towards you

i somehow beat morrowind twice before I found out there was a world map

You know what traumatized me from morrowind?

" *You have severed the thread of prophecy. You may reload your last save or continue on in the doomed world you've created.* "

Shout out to the guy who falls from the sky in the starting swamp that made me feel like a 9 year old wizard

I remember playing Oblivion for the first time when I was 9, I had watched my brother make his way through the beginning of the game until the Emperors death and then he decided he'd rather go outside and play soccer so he told me I could keep playing. I was left there with Baurus who was busy explaining how the sewers ahead were my only escape to get to Weynon Priory. I didn't know what the fuck was going on with the story and everything he was telling me, I was terrified at the thought of advancing further myself, especially when Baurus said "there are rats and goblins down there", that freaked me the fuck OUT. But soon he managed to calm my nerves slightly because he's a bro and after much panic and anxiety creeping through the sewers, trying to figure out the controls, I made it out. That first moment being outside the sewers, with the pier ahead and the ayleid ruin across the lake, that was pure bliss for me at 9. I felt like I had accomplished something great by surviving the dark sewers and had now stepped into a colossal world which felt very overwhelming but unbelievably exciting too. Never had a stronger moment for me as a gamer.

"I thought I was in for a peaceful and serene adventure"

Narrator: *Little did he know, Morrowind was one of the most brutal provinces*

As a kid, I was always scared of the dreugh. Going out into deep water would get my heart rate going, because I knew horrible humanoid monsters would come up from the depths.

Jokes aside I love your channel and I’ve been a fan for a long time.

I started playing Morrowind when I was 11. I had no internet access and I had never played an RPG before. I am 27 now but still deeply affected by all the trauma. And it's my favorite game ever.

Going out and being killed by a mudcrab really set the stage for development for my character

[SirKurt]

The most helpless I have ever felt in my life was when I entered a tomb in Morrowind, a ghost was attacking me and I only had a physical attack sword. Still haunts me to this day.

I was traumatized by oblivion as a kid
But CHEESE made me MOVE

The rats in the Oblivion still scares the hell out of me till this day. The way they slowly approach to you and suddenly jump at you is horrible asf.

I started with Oblivion. Because I didn't know quests were a thing I was only doing dungeons...DUNGEONS!

[DCdabest]

That feel when you get stabbed by some dude and his dark elf gf

[dasjugsboi]

"I think you're a thief because you've stolen my heart".
In all my hours of Morrowind (I even have a screenshot of MW in my YouTube profile picture), I don't recall hearing a female Bosmer say that line at any point in the game.

When I was 10 years old and played Oblivion, one day I came to this Ayleid ruin, where there was a large room with many stone coffins. The room was empty, so I thought great, I can raid in peace. I went to the last chest and when I opened it the battle music started. When I turned around, there were many zombies by the coffins. The horror I felt was indescribable.

I literally experienced TES the exact same way, holy crap I didn't understand a thing about RPGs
