Just found out about Starwind, a Star Wars themed total conversion for Morrowind that can be played using the FOSS OpenMW engine (i.e. it can be played natively on Linux).

I haven’t tried it myself, but I watched this video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo-NO61jcX8

It can be downloaded from nexusmods for those who want to try it out on OpenMW: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/48909

What a fool you are. I'm a sith, how can you kill a sith! What grand and intoxicating innocence

Oh my god, it looks like it lept out of the kotor engine. Where was this hiding from me all this time?

Is it good?

The OpenMW engine has been used to make some incredibly impressive stuff.

One example being the progress towards supporting other games such as Fallout 3/NV

Though I have no idea how much progress has been made since 2019 and when videos floated around demonstrating some of what has been added.
