I don't know what people would even want out of that that isn't already provided by OpenMW. As far as running at modern resolutions, faster load times, higher FPS, etc. It even runs on phones.

Oblivion is similar enough to Skyrim and Starfield that a remake isn't that far out there. Do people really just want Morrowind in the skin of those games?

They have pretty much nothing in common system or writing wise. I can't see any situation where it isn't just a lesser product.

Morrowind also needs redesign of combat system because misses with zero damage were just so stupid. Remaster would be great time to also address that. Oblivion didn't have this issue anymore.

Morrowind combat would be improved immensely by the addition of a combat log. And wouldnt you know it? There's a mod for that now

~yeah~ ~i~ ~know~ ~it's~ ~only~ ~a~ ~hit~ ~chance~ ~mod~

I don't want to spend 5 days chasing the right mods and installing them just for them to conflict. I just want to play man.

You're in luck, no requirements except OpenMW which is what you should use for Morrowind anyway.
