Two Interviews Update by Striker

11:51 PM CST There is a new interview about Bloodmoon with Ashley Cheng over on RPGVault. It contains quite a bit of new info as well as the phrase "You had me at werewolf." (possibly with tears involved! :D ), so check it out.



Another interview, with much less new information, can be found over on Lone Gamers. It's also with Ashley Cheng, and worth the read, mainly because it's Bloodmoon related!

Bits and Pieces Update by Striker

7:40 PM CST Few bits of news today. The first is a new wallpaper from the next Morrowind expansion Bloodmoon on the official site. This one features a Solstheim Nord and looks pretty darn fine if you ask me! Morrowind has also been named PC Game of the Year over on Game Industry, which is a great feat, and another award to add to Morrowind's ever growing collection.



There were also two more Tribunal reviews. The first review is over on Gaming Invasion with a respectable score of 77%. The second review is from Quandaryland. It is a very positive review, although it doesn't give an over all score.

Review and Interview Update by Striker

7:19 PM CST Just a quick update today. Firstly, there is another Tribunal review, this time over on NetJak. It gives a pretty good score of 7.8 out of 10. The other bit of news is an interview with Todd Howard on RPGDot. It has the title Ad Personam, and asks general questions about the computer game industry. It isn't totally about the Elder Scrolls series, but it's a good read none-the-less.

Bloodmoon Interviews and a Press Release Update by Striker

9:50 PM CST For those wanting more Bloodmoon information (Which is probably all of you), Home Lan have put up an interview with Ashley Cheng about the up and coming Morrowind Expansion. It contains a little more information, and since there isn't overly much at the moment, every little bit help! Also, JS Online have updated their Todd Howard interview from February. I couldn't tell what has changed, but that's probably because I can't remember back that far.



The last bit of news is that, according to this press release, Morrowind is going to be released as part of the Xbox Platinum Hits collection. Not only does that mean it's price will be reduced, it's also an indication on how well it's been selling for the good old console. That's always a good sign for the future of the Elder Scrolls series.

I'm Back With Some Plugin Goodness Update by Striker

7:08 PM CST Well, I'm back from my holidays. There wasn't much news relating to Morrowind over the last 3 weeks, other than it winning some more awards.



I have added a few more completed plugins. The first two are by Zdim, which include an updated version of his Cave of Woe plugin, as well as one entitled Gog, that adds a few creatures to fight in Vivec's Arena. Also, I've added Issue 5 of the Modern Adventurer! This version comes in two flavours, the full version, which includes everything from previous versions of the Modern Adventurer, and a lite version, that only adds the changes made in Issue 5. If you already have version 4 of the plugin, then just add Issue 5 to the list of selected plugins and you're all set. If you don't have version 4 already, then you'll need to download the full version.



It's good to be back!
