Hey folks, this is the return of our Mod of the Month series, which has been on hiatus for quite some time now, remastered and redesigned to cover a wider selection of mods in 2024. When the Mod of the Month series first launched in 2015, there were an average of 30 new mod releases for Morrowind a month, and today that average has grown to well north of 100, and so with changing times, I thought it was best to bring back this series with a new format and look. We're still tweaking things a bit, so the next episode might look a bit different, hopefully not as a long, but do let me know what you think of the new design and layout!
Our next episode, covering the major highlights of February 2024, will air next week, and we'll be posting these weekly until we're caught up to May and (of course) the Modathon.
And if you want to check out weekly mod release summaries with a list of notable new mod releases and major mod updates, stop by our Patreon page, we have a free public blog series covering major updates in the community that usually gets posted every Sunday (we're a bit behind at the moment, due to sickness and Modathon prep, but our archive goes from December of 2023 to April of 2024): https://www.patreon.com/collection/274488

A 30 min breakdown of just 5 mods made in a single month? Yes please, directly into my veins.
Fantastic content as always DEG, I'm honoured to have my work showcased in one of your videos!
love the modathons
whats the UI mod youre using in this video? love the new style for the text boxes
Didn't know about this/these Vivec overhauls tbh. Makes me want to just pass on using BCoM even more.
Brilliant showcase as always DEG, time to reinstall and revamp my Morrowind mod list!
This is awesome! Solid mods
Thank you for being blessed by the quality content gods and sharing your gift of sharing gifts
6:30 is a pretty cool shot. Love the fly-by views
Amazing mods. It will be a nightmare to download all of these mods when I get around replaying the game once Tamriel Rebuilt is finished.
The community has been wild this year. I'm very happy to be apart of this amazing community.
Brilliant! Love the new format. Appreciate the mod updates section towards the end. It’s definitely inspired me to update some of my mods. :- )
Wow , to be honests there arenow many great mods it's a new game every play thru – if you know how to mod your MW – TY 👍
Interestingly, even if Vivec City of Swords is pretty counter to my own ideal image of how Vivec should be, it made me think a lot about how I prefer it, which I think is part of what makes modding so interesting. Even when it's not my cup of tea, the massive amount of craftsmanship and the creative vision makes you think more deeply about the subject.
so looking forward this, 30+ minutes. Thank you!
Walking into the interiors of The City Of Swords kinda brings back that sense of awe when you first walked up to the old Cantons
Obra maestra de vídeo, pedazo de mods 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🤗👍
Mer made wooden doors…
DEG, nerevar change😊.
I really like the fact that Vivec, neglected for years, has finally become a wonderful, interesting city with a GREAT PORT (yes, the reality of trade is important to me) and sort of a "little Venice."
PS. I didn't know what there were new tutotials for CS – DEG, we need at least 1min video on introduction on those, coz I want to start modding Morrowind again so bad!
