Starfield’s contentious main menu screen comes to Morrowind

There's a mod for literally everything, isn't there?

Forget Starfield. Let’s play something more old school instead. How about The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind? That’s a classic Bethesda title, and it’s still having mods made for it. But if you want a mix of the two, then we’ve got you covered on that front.

Before you take to the skies in Starfield, feel free to check out AnyOldName3‘s contribution to the current trend. Over on Nexus Mods, you’ll find a small download for Morrowind that implements the contentious Starfield main menu screen.

That’s right, the Starfield menu that has caused an uproar can be a part of one of the best role-playing games of a bygone era. And all before Bethesda’s new sci-fi game even hits the shelves.

Shitpost modding is still modding

AnyOldName3’s mod is a simple affair, replacing Morrowind’s menu screen with Starfield‘s. If you do want to download it (just for shits and giggles, I guess), you will need OpenMW, as it only works though that.

That’s basically all this mod does. As far as we can tell, it’s still the same old Elder Scrolls 3. If you want to fundamentally improve or alter Morrowind in any way that’s gameplay worthy, there are mods galore for that sort of thing.

As for Starfield, we are inching ever closer to its release date. By now, you’ve probably heard just about everything there is to know about Bethesda’s brand-new IP. But in case you’ve forgotten, the game will be releasing on September 6 for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
