Permenantly alters your strength stat to make you a vegetable

No potions because you already used them all

No spells because you don't have enough money yet

No scrolls because the game said fuck you

Game is softlocked gg

You tards told me this was the best tes game.

another failed nerevarine

bawwwww I must never lose I can't lose at a game noooo mommy bawwwww

Find a shrine, dummy.

my retarded actions and lack of foresight have bad consequences? GAME BAD

Puts 10 hours into a game

Game softlocks you

Somehow you're a manbaby for being angry at a game that didn't respect your time

Cant move because strength is zero.

JUST FIND A SHRINE!

It’s crazy how often retarded zoomies will go into older RPGs expecting there to be a treasure chest every 5 feet that gives them them the Greater Potion of Plot-Related-Curse Recovery seconds after getting afflicted like they’re fucking trick-or-treating. If you’re going on an adventure, you stock up and get ready. Not the game’s fault you went out unprepared.

I can't move

I love people defending a obtuse, gotcha mechanic that is instantly solved by just using a wikia before returning the game to it's natural state of "not really hard at all or all that deep except for mechanic jump scares".

You can move if you drop every single item in your inventory.

Skill issue

he fell for it

drop every item in your inventory. they don't despawn
or, just reload save, since you lost the battle and usually when that happens you die and are forced to reload anyway
next time bring a Recall scroll

if you aren't saving every 5 minutes in a bethesda game anyway you deserve to get shit on.

Game doesn't communicate that stats can be permanently altered

Somehow retards think I'm complaining about the fact that I have to stock up potions and not about the games' piss poor explanation of mechanics

Games forcing you to use a wiki or manual to understand its mechanics is what killed gaming

for me it's this fucking cup

nobody playing morrowind in 2002 had a wiki
as for manuals, i'd rather do some light reading then have yellow paint and tutorial popups everywhere

Games forcing you to use a wiki or manual to understand its mechanics is what killed gaming

Bait used to be believable.

Oh boo fucking whoo

george wheelchair

This is every Bethesda slop game sadly. Yes, even daggerfall.

trusting daedric items

Unironically neck yourself, but i suggest you read up on how to do it. You might fail otherwise

skill issue

That's gaming's natural state. You are what is actually killing gaming. Not that I can really blame you, you're the product of games that have extended on rails retard-proof tutorials.

conjure a wheelchair

i kinda agree old rpg games are "hard" by this single fact and current games should drop intrusive tutorials and put it as a codex or pdf with the game

I deliberately walked into a tomb and got cursed by it's undead inhabitants, now Im cursed! how could this happen to me?

It is your own fault for tomb raiding without being prepared. If it were easy, every fetcher in morrowind would be tomb raiding rather then egg mining. next time go buy some Almsivi intervention scrolls first.

strength damaged

use something that restores or boosts strength

Rocket science definitely requires a wiki
There are damage and drain spell effects everywhere on items and potions and spells. You can learn it by catching a disease or a spell hit from something. You just happened to learn it in the nastiest way possible.
Yes you're expected to read the manual, it's pamphlet sized. I'm sorry the game did not introduce bonewalkers with a two minute cutscene and a comedic relief mascot that spoils exactly what they do before you ever face one. You independently and organically discovered something new and now you have learned the hard way how to prepare for tombs in the future... all without anyone telling you, and that's f*ck*ng terrible.

NOOO DEREKDAMA CHAUVANDARYS TAKE YOUR NECK OFF THIS POOR MAN'S NECK

getting screwed by some second zone mage

it's weary spell actually last like 10sec

op's not making any effort really

What the fuck do you mean softlocked? Activate your CHM, retard.

Game softlocks you

It's literally no different from if it just had a strong attack that had killed you
LOAD A FUCKING SAVE

drop your shit, cast a feather spell or reload a save
if you had just died you would have had to reload

I waited and it's still there

xhe doesn't carry stoneflowers on him at all times to eat them and restore strength attribute

xhe doesn't have a mark location next to a shrine

xhe doesn't constantly carry recall potions for instant teleport at any point in time

ngmi

permanently altered

again, it's not permanent, you're just stupid and didn't prepare yourself
there are tons of ways to solve this problem, you simply didn't take any precautions

wowww, the game didn't give me a popup telling me every time i'm going to face a danger, how was i supposed to know

did you want a little doom TDA tutorial popup when the bonewalker showed up?

post a screenshot of your inventory

xhe doesn't have a mark location next to a shrine

Why not just use a spell that literally teleports you to a shrine?

shrines are out of reach if you're stuck inside a temple at 0 strength

almsivi only moves you to the outside of a temple, if you couldn't move then it'd do you no good

be breton

get saviour hide

100% resistance to all debuffs in the game

simple as

op's pic is from the wiki down to the filename so i assume it's fake and gay

use Intervention scroll

drop all your shit till you can move

restore strength at shrine

go back outside and pick all your shit back up

idk problem seems solved to me

I can't believe retards like you are allowed to vote.

i don't want the world created in a game to """respect""" my time
i want the world that is created to be worthy of respect

Or just make a restore attributes spell strengh 100 with lenght of 1 second. Costs nothing to cast.

I softlocked myself once by killing the Corpus bitch at the Arena as a child. Took a while before I noticed. Keep in mind I was a retarded ESL kid so doing the pilgrimage was a real pain in the ass

is this your first RPG?
this is an extremely common mechanic

Make a custom "Restore Strength 10 points for 3 seconds spell

Never worry about this shit again

In today's news an ordinator was seen kneeling on a redguard males neck after he went to pay for a squib jelly sandwich and tried to pay with fake drakes.
The redguard male purportedly swallowed large amount of raw moon sugar.

Even the skull is chuckling at you for being such a fool.

You're playing vidya, you dont respect your time

Imagine sucking this bad at video games

Not mayoring Restoration

It's like you hate yourself.

B-b-bu-bu I'm playing as a barbarian!

Your retarded character doesn't deserve to be Nerevarine. Actually, there are smart barbarians that learn mayor Restoration, because they have brains. Unlike your character.

mayor

fucking phonefag

Fuck you and major Restoration

Souls game gets released

an early game boss gets considered a casual filter

Anon Babble proclaims they didn't get filtered

morrowind gets brought up

a regular enemy appears

filtered

soulsbabbies are pathetic.
Learn game mechanics for once.

You’re expected to have saves. Morrowind gives you the freedom to fuck up your game.

This is another reason why I love Morrowind

Oh, you fucked up and killed someone important

Here's a message warning you that the game is possibly unbeatable now

But don't give a fuck? No worries, have fun anyway.

The game says you can no longer beat it

You can actually still beat it

Todd?

how bad do you have to be to let a bonewalker drain your strength to zero? Let me guess, you didn't put any combat skills as you major or minors because you wanted to roleplay a merchant?

use only one save and save when you get failstated

game is now softlocked forever

this can happen in any video game you're just retarded lil nigga

drop your items

what if a Redguard steals them?

Characters dying to bullshit is a core aspect of role playing games.

do a sidequest

It happened to me a few times as a kid. But that's what intervention scrolls are for. I'd always use em then drop my shit in front of the shrine. Got me in trouble a few times picking up items I had previously stolen. But yea, replaying as an adult this shit never happens to me because I know to avoid it.

Nigga we had gamefaqs. I remember one time my mom got mad at me for printing a 600 page full walk-through of morrowind off that site lol.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Nothing says Morrowind novice like this

You can't fulfill the prophecy anymore, doesn't mean you still can't get shit done.

Retards like you better never play diablo 1 in melee. There is no cure bitch

I mostly play shooters like Battlefield and Halo. I'm not used to open world games. This game already has too much to follow. I only played this on recommendation of a friend of mine. I do not understand how you guys can play games like this.

Officer I can’t move!

>No potions because you already used them all

No spells because you don't have enough money yet

No scrolls because the game said fuck you

Fortify potions can't offset the damage done to your strength

WHY THE FUCK CAN'T ZOOMERS HANDLE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT? It's like everything has to be a cooldown because you're so fucking retarded. Like it concerns me to think how irresponsible with money you must be IRL.

The game gives you a ton of Sujamma and alcohol shit with absurd buffs. 50 fucking points of strength for a whole fucking minute. You have no excuse. Zero.

The fact that this is who they're designing games for now. Jesus fucking christ. Just a simple Resident Evil game would totally rape you.

And it stacks too. IT FUCKING STACKS

Why are there so many fucking Morrowind threads all the sudden?

It weights too much.

Oblivion remastered couldn't get it up

I love people defending a obtuse, gotcha mechanic that is instantly solved by just using a wikia before

Are you too retarded to drink a restore potion?

picks up every single piece of armor and weapon off every corpse

it weighs 3.

Especially when NPCs literally tell you to stock the fuck up on restore pots, how handy intervention scrolls are etc. And "cheap potion of restore strength" that shows it restores your strength stat must also be too minor detail. If he's baiting, he really got me.

filtered
I love it

yes, older RPG's didn't hold your hand and autosave every time you did anything.

Reload autosave you wanker

Okay hear me out, senile Joe Biden as Uriel Septim VII

Look jack, my sons are dead

Well, Hunter's still kicking, Mr President

I think I seen you in my dreams, man

Guest starring Hunter Biden as the unlikely hero Martin Septim

How much agi/weapon skill do you actually need to not miss most of your attacks, and do people really farm that manually

Players don't read even if the game pauses and shows them a tutorial popup

Use the trainers. Do not fight if your weap skill is below 35.

damn this game is ugly, quake 1 looked miles better

lmfao that shit is loony. alright then. so are you stealing the plate in seyda neen or what? I guess my question is what is the average or developer 'intended' non-exploit means to be able to really go out in the world. Crazy how strong that second bandit in the first bandit cave is.

As a new player I don't know to trust all of those things yet. Restore pots yes obviously you get, but the strength stat stuff, I don't know, you have to learn the value of that stat

non-exploit means to be able to really go out in the world

Making a build that doesn't suck shit would be a start.

Your base hit rate is your weapon level, +1% per 5 agility and another +1% per 10 luck, then the whole thing gets multiplied between 0.75 and 1.25 depending on how full your fatigue bar is.
If you have 50 agility and 40 luck against an enemy with 0 stats you'll get 100% hit rate around level 66-67 in a skill.

Is Strength/Agi with Warrior while wielding the weapon you have a major skill in, wearing armor you have a major skill in, not enough? I tried it and I missed probably 20% of the time still. I'm just asking

The intended way is to not scream and piss yourself the instant you miss an attack. Enemies don't have good stats at level 1 either.

Ah, thank you.

Hey man I'm not screaming or pissing, I just realize you have to whiff against scribs for a long time before you can go most places outside of town. That's all

Are you just spam clicking to attack or something? You have everything down, you shouldn't be having trouble with the cave bandits.
80% hit rate out of Seyda Neen is optimal.

Oh you know what it might be the spam clicking.

Restore Endurance

Restore Strength

Cheap as hell and casts 90% of the time with 30 restoration.

all these faggots defending soft lock situations

it's bad game design. It has nothing to do with reading the manual.

it's not, it's interesting game design
but you are a tasteless prole, so you have no clue

It's not a soft lock. There are several ways out that will at most temporarily inconvenience you.

How the FUCK am I supposed to level enchanting

Recharging magical items with soul gems

Soul trap every last rat and recharge equipment with it

Not all quests send you to the wilderness. Do the easy quests > save money > buy necessities > pay trainers > go outside

Is Strength/Agi with Warrior while wielding the weapon you have a major skill in, wearing armor you have a major skill in, not enough?

No, Anon. It's not enough winning battles. You also have to survive the outside world. You have to heal yourself, recover mp, heal diseases, recover drained/damaged attributes, mark/ recall, etc.

I should probably explore more around then. Seyda Neen must have quests like that which I haven't seen. I get too focused on getting to Balmora I think

its bad game design lil bro, your supposed to be given what you need to beat the situation when it arises

Take the strider. You can walk to Balmora, but it's easier to just take the strider. There is a cave right outside Balmora. Loot it. A corpse with a bit of money, too.

You can get like 100k gold in one hour of starting a new character

I just don't know how to do that

The corpse is in the swamps. It's the taxman.

This unironically, it's even logical and lore-friendly to have strength restore potions or scrolls in chests within tombs.

I played morrowind when it first came out and dropped it because my neglected, and untreated adhd child brain couldn't handle it without making me want to rage.
I'm picking it up now though, been playing a lot of old rpgs/crpg lately (playing bg3 made me realize how mediocre it actually is and gave me the itch to play older games). Do I start with tamriel reloaded on for all the extra content, or play vanilla? thanks in advance.

(Weapon skill + Agility/5 + Luck/10) * Stamina multiplier + Fortify Attack
To my understanding this is how you calculate it.

You also have to make sure your stamina is full when you start a fight. The lower your stamina the higher your chance to miss.

No no no. See I'm the guy who's been here asking about how to stop missing my attacks, and even I feel this game has that classic adventure game fucking real shit where you would log in as a kid and run around curious as fuck really understanding this was a scary world, doing everything you could to do what you can. And then you'd go to school and trade secrets and figure stuff out and I just gotta say I'm happy the game is the way it is even if I can't run around like a retard like I want to

What are your stats

Join the Fighter Guild ASP. They are in Balmora. Just take the strider. They'll take good care of you.

So endurance bar management is a really big mechanic then, right? Hate to ask for gameplay spoilers but what's the formula or at least the average length of a decent player's charge attack?

Oh no my weak retard arms can't carry all this shit

Just drop your inventory or reload.

part of one of many religions in the game

use blessing that are everywhere in tombs

problem fixed

Spend all your gold at the trainer

Define 'reload'. Like make a whole new character?

reinstall the game

Buy the game again on a different computer

You know what, I'll give you this one. I think we all got fucked by bonewalkers at some point. Well now you know. On the other hand, you should have saved before entering, everybody knows Beth games have never been particularly stable.

Max listed weapon damage when the animation stops

Fatigue management is almost all there is to it (not just for combat btw), along with not using a poor weapon skill (below 30).
Charging attacks does not change your chance to hit, you merely increase the damage. The damage range you see on a weapon isn't random, 1-10 means minimum damage of 1 (attack spam) and maximum damage of 10 (hold until animation stops, then release). Depending on the weapon type you may want to spam instead of charging your attacks.
If the fight is easy and you're not in danger, consider spamming attacks in order to level up the skill faster.

everyone in this thread pretending to be some clairvoyant epic gamer that just knew the solutions to everything before they encountered it and were prepared

You can get softlocked by one of these in a tomb right outside the starting town. Stop trying to show off, you know it's a bullshit mechanic and place for it it's okay to admit it.

3 what?

(cont) Here's some kit worth carrying:
restore health pots, mana pots, soul gems for equipment
cure disease & cure blight
levitation pot or scroll, water breathing
Almsivi / DI scrolls, mark and recall pots
lockpicks and probes or lockpicking scroll
arrows etc. if you're doing that
restore strength as you found out, but any stat can be drained so you might want a small collection when you're well set up
fortify strength / feather for recovering fat loot
real life paper pad for notes
something silver to smack ghosts if you don't have anything else that will
remove poison for when you fail at lockpicking
big stack of flin for administering beatdown to tough guys
plus weapons and armor and stuff

the tip to not miss your attacks that even works at lvl 1:

Pick a main and make it a main skill. this will make you an apprentice in the fighting style you pick.

keep your stamina up, empty bars will make you miss everything. Drink potions and liquor

As long as your skill is above 25 and your stamina is enough, you wont miss often if at all

Stamina bar even affects your chances to successfully cast a spell. You sell items for lower prices when your stamina is low. It affects almost everything

reload your ir life you dense faggot

>No potions because you already used them all

>No spells because you don't have enough money yet

>No scrolls because the game said fuck you

This is all your fault. Git gud.

Game tells you to be prepared

Game has restore strength potions

"Mmhhh maybe the game will lower my strength at some point".

when the game was new with no guide I figured out how to steal the platter and warehouse key. I was 12?

I dont care about whatever you guys are arguing about
I just find the meat and potatoes of the game to be lackluster
Combat is pretty boring
Travelling is pretty boring
The story was written by drug addicts
The item economy is easy as shit to break when a walking pile of 1000 gold spawns in front of your bed every 5th time you wait or sleep
I am a fan of fantasy storytelling, inventory management, dungeon crawling, and character building. But is all happens at such a snail’s pace if you play blind, and wikiing stuff spoils the fun anyway
I uninstalled after about 3 hours

Lowering strength is one thing but mmaking you immobile in a cave is another. Especially for new players, there's not reason to believe 0 strength wouldn't just cause overencumbrance and slow walk/no jump like Oblivion or Skyrim.

Effectiveness for rolling to hit, evade or block is = (0.75 + (0.5 * (Current Fatigue / Maximum Fatigue))) which can get painful. This can be especially bad when unable to even hit the target. Just keep an eye on the bar and don't run it down to 0 by running around unless you have stamina potions to use. Other skills are affected in other ways so generally wait for the bar before doing just about anything even lockpicking and merchanting.

In other words: filtered

not really. Morrowind is loved as a classic rpg because you can brick yourself by doing something like hitting 0 strength or 0 fatigue.

My take as well but much more eloquently put. It took me over 30 hours to gove up on it because these threads assured me it would get good eventually.

you should have an amulet of intervention at that point

that is ok, it isnt for everyone and there are other games to enjoy as well

I'm stealing this and killing Vivec with it at the end of this run.

I just found that and I left it the fuck alone

Muatra huh? Very sus of you. Vivec will enjoy that. And / or find it hilariously ironic.

drop shit until you can move again

go through boxes and whatnot until you find 10 gold if you don't have it already, gold is weightless

donate the gold at a shrine or altar for a restore attributes blessing (not all shrines have it but every temple should have a shrine that does)

optional: recover the shit you dropped

he's standing right behind me isn't he?

lol happened to me too when I was young. Had to drop everything. Took forever to find a shire. lmao to be young and stupid again.

Is there a shop mod? What I'm looking for is the ability to dump glass jinkblades, daedric weapons, self made potions and general junk on my personal shopkeeper and have them turn into a reasonable amount of gold over time.

hello n'wahs
just started the game for the first time today, with Cyrodiil/Skyrim/Tamriel.
Have some questions.

Training magic seems like complete cancer without custom spells. Do I really need to go make a custom low cost spell to spam? Or do I just suck it up and go find a trainer when I've got a lot of money? But then I'll need to basically not use magic for a while...

What is the point of using Light Armor over Medium or Heavy? The game doesn't show me if/how it affects my evasion.

Is there any form of lock bashing in the game? Or do I need magic/security?

Is block worth taking without shields?

Does wearing armor affect spellcasting chances? Stamina level?

Are there Divines/Daedra questlines in this game? I've only really seen mention of the imperial cult, which I haven't even looked into.

3eez nutz lmao

I'm stealing this

is it really stealing? pretty sure it doesn't count as stolen, could sell and re buy it anyway

training magic seems like complete cancer without custom spells.

Join the Mages Guild. Do their quests. As you raise in ranks, training becomes cheaper. Don't be afraid to teleport back to safety. Sell everything you looted. You can try again later.

What is the point of using Light Armor over Medium or Heavy?

You move faster with light armor. Light armor weights much less than heavy.

Is there any form of lock bashing in the game? Or do I need magic/security?

If you are a mage, just scrolls, or make a 50 and 100 unlock spell.

Is block worth taking without shields?

No. Don't be stupid. Get a shield.

Does wearing armor affect spellcasting chances? Stamina level?

No

Are there Divines/Daedra questlines in this game?

Yes. They are hidden. Talk to people.

What is the point of using Light Armor over Medium or Heavy? The game doesn't show me if/how it affects my evasion.

It weighs less leaving more room for more loot / better movespeed

Is there any form of lock bashing in the game? Or do I need magic/security?

The latter

Is block worth taking without shields?

It does nothing for you without a shield

Does wearing armor affect spellcasting chances? Stamina level?

Wearing armour does nothing, but success rates decrease when you're more fatigued

Are there Divines/Daedra questlines in this game? I've only really seen mention of the imperial cult, which I haven't even looked into.

There are daedra quests but you won't find them for a long while

Making money is super easy in Morrowind, so training isn't that hard, its also not limited live Oblivion and Skyrim, you can train is much as you want

Morrowind early leveling tutorial

Trainers ruin the game. Change my mind.

Are you supposed to just hit scribs and rest over and over again?

lmao why is this so funny

Levelling combat skills from 5 is genuinely impossible

There's nothing wrong with being able to speed things up provided you got the gold to do so. If you want to be a perma jobber for 40 years mindlessly grinding your stats before being able to kill any remotely challenging enemy idk play something like Kenshi instead

but shields are LAME
how am I supposed to roleplay my cool imperial samurai with a big ugly shield huh??

how am I supposed to roleplay my cool imperial samurai with a big ugly shield huh??

If you are using double handed swords, you shouldn't pick shield at all. If you are using a one handed sword, then don't be stupid, and pick up a shield. Being alive > looking cool. Shields are cool, anyway.

Being alive > looking cool

Now that's just factually incorrect.
I do wanna get a dai-katana eventually, but I just have a normal katana for now.

What's the deal with the bitch and her love of pillows? Why does she have 100 pillows? Why does she love them so much?
What is the deep lore here?

Then pick use shields. It's a sacrifice, but if you are willing to do it, I respect you. Pick restore, or Mysticism instead.

Oh no!

quickloads

Anyways

not playing with permadeath

you didn't beat the game

arbitrary imposed restrictions

Lame and gay

just needed a cap like oblivion. i think it's only 5 trained rank per level?

Yeah 5 per a level in both Oblivion and Skyrim. I think Daggerfall had a train once per a day system so really only Morrowind didn't really make any bottleneck for it.

game makes it hard to figure what I'm actually cursed with and how to fix it

also makes it hard to find it in inventory

inventory management is also shit

You can misuse anything. Just don't spend every last septim on them just to leave balmora with every skill over 50 and you're golden.
Use them to round up secondary skills for guild advancement. Or to bumpstart the develoment of a skill.

You're fucking retarded, it's not being clairvoyant, it's "Damn these shops are selling strength restoration potions, bet there are things around that can fuck with stats, better buy some since they're not expensive"
Or craft a really cheap spell that restores all your stats by 10 and just cast that a fuck ton in a pinch

Either way is fine, TR has too much content for one playthrough anyway

Is Tamriel Rebuilt really all that epic in Black Marsh and Nibenay and etc? Last thread nobody answered me if there were actually dragons in the Niben like the lore document said

game is advertised as letting you play however you want and "live another life"

can buy damaged glass gear and repair it to resell for profit

can make potions to sell for profit

can sneak and steal and make money that way

can use mercantile skill to buy and sell

NOOOO YOU CANT JUST HECKIN WORK AT YOUR NON COMBAT SKILLS UNTIL YOU ARE HIGH LEVEL THEN BUY TRAINING

why? why is it bad?
Keep in mind you can do the same in skyrim, but the games level scaling is so obtrusive due to the stat power creep that if you level non combat skills too high you can soft lock yourself from killing things, cant even buy training to become proficient in combat unless you are power gaming it and going out of your way to train a combat skill 5 times per level. Not that skyrim even has as much non combat skills or ways to play as morrowind anyways.

Why is taking away the option to play that way and making it harder to unbrick a character a good thing?

it breaks the gaaaaaame

You think you cant break oblivion or skyrim? Last i checked those games could be "ruined" by playing certain ways as well. just dont use the easter egg merchants in morrowind or exploit mercantile skill, then you probably wont have enough gold to train all that much anyways, if you do then so what? Its not like this is skyrim where having 100 in blade makes you do 225% more damage because of all the perks and inherent % increase from skill. weapon skill in morrowind is hit chance, and strength in morrowind is 50% more dmage at 100 strength. Its not like skyrim where you get 50% more damage from skill, then 100% from perks + another 25-75% from power attack perks depending on what weapon you are using + the bleed,crit, or armor ignore perks increasing damage further, which makes it so if you level up just that skill and only that skill you will effectivly out level the game due to having so many % bonuses at once.

Yeah was Skyrim's level scaling any different from Oblivions?

The item economy is easy as shit to break when a walking pile of 1000 gold spawns in front of your bed every 5th time you wait or sleep

for skyrim and oblivion the base game is meh and the DLC are great.

For morrowind the base game is great and the changes to the base game from DLC are atrociously bad. Mod that shit out to delay it and so it only happens one time.

I uninstalled after about 3 hours

so you didnt even get started

Ive been having fun playing TR as a new cleric in the tribunal temple

that orc who wants to be a member of the temple

Are Dark Brotherhood Assassins DLC content? Also they fucking ruin the game for early levelers wtf what do you mean I can't get level my spells by using my magicka then sleeping and repeating without a guy a literally can't hit popping out to stalk and kill me?

You ever play Halo CE where your health bar damage required an actual medkit to heal, otherwise the damage was "permanent"?
Anon, you are effectively (not emotionally, but in terms of experience) a child in regards to games.
All you know is a very fast paced and unpunishing experience where a bit of time is all you need to recover from anything and where a single death means nothing.

Even in an easier later game like skyrim death is still death and means lost progress bro.
No respawns.
Only turning back time and losing what you accomplished up to your last save.

Expand your horizons and learn the experience of needing to stay alive and deal with status effects.

Ironic statement since Morrowind is quite literally the only bethesda game you can get powerful loot since loot is scaled to shit in daggerfall, oblivion and skyrim.

Yes, it was different in a way that made exploration more interesting. Some areas or bosses had a minimum level. It was rare but you could find say a dragon priest at lvl 1 but he would be higher level and just 1 shot you, so you need to come back and try again later.

Stuff would still level with you though, but bethesda did some superficial changes like giving a chance an area would spawn a low lvl bandit that would get 1-2 shot to make you feel your character progression, and bandits would always have lower tier gear instead of glass like oblivion.

the main difference is that you only get the higher-tier drops from dungeon chests and the enemies just inexplicably hit harder with their steel/steel-equivalent gear

Is Tamriel Rebuilt really all that epic in Black Marsh and Nibenay and etc?

Ask again in 2035

Neat. I remember Skyrim feeling so limited but maybe I oughtta go back and play it again

yeah they are tribunal content. Devs seemed to assume everyone installing the DLC was and would always be finished with the main game or something. DLC also completely ruin the "Rumor" dialog from the base game as well.

I miss game RPGs had punishing outcomes, imagine 80-early 2000's tier RPGs but with modern graphics.
real gamers got robbed by faggot normies

Does anyone know how to fix this glitch? I used OpenMW before and I never encountered this bug until the most recent build of OpenMW? For some unknown reason every ebony chest piece has this glowing effect even though it has no enchantment. Has any other anon encountered this issue before?

Install Requiem, it delevels everything.
Mind you, dragons will absolutely demolish you until you're like 20 hours in your playthrough unless you know what you're doing.

Yeesh. Can I just remove the .esp files from my boot list? That's probably not going to work with TR, either. So doesn't that mean TR assaults you with these fuckers before you're ready no matter what you do?

just get the delayed expansion mod. I think that fixes rumors, a few mods will fix rumors, idk which ones exactly though i made my own to fix before i knew about the others (its easy af to do, takes like 2 mins if you know what to look for)

The idea of consequences and choices in general has greatly been watered down by the permeating cancer of 'every player must experience all the content' mentality.

Just look at the Souls series. This generation's idea of a hard game. Except it's not even remotely hard unless you impose 50 different arbitrary rules on yourself. I miss the days when a game being challenging was just expected. You'd play kids games and platformers and they were hard. There was always an element of challenge to it.

Nowadays, a game is either entirely centered around being challenging, or it's not challenging in the slightest.

They are, but they're not as bad as people think they are. They have levelled variants that are designed to be fought at lower levels, and there's a maximum amount of times they'll attack you when resting. The only way they "break the game" is that their medium armour is pretty good and has a reasonably (but not excessively) high value.
They also stop completely after you talk to some dude in Ebonheart which isn't hard to get to at the start of the game.

Always carry at least 5 jugs of Sujamma so you can go full drunk retard strength.
Better luck next time, nerd.

If they arent easy for your character then they are annoying, if they are easy then you just got end game level armor easier than you should have and ruined your characters progression. Finding your first good set off armor should be an event not something the game just throws at you at level 1 imo.

Yep
same thing happened with mmorpgs, compare original everquest or ultima online with faggotry like ffxiv or WoW

Its why so many veteran players get bored of vidya extremely fast nowadays. it's all literal brainrot with zero challenge or engagement if you were around for the golden era of gaming.

All unique weapons in Oblivion had their stats scaled to whatever level you got them at, which sucked so bad that I'm pretty sure the very first mod I grabbed for Oblivion back in the day was one that allowed you to rescale the stats on those weapons.
I forget whether or not Skyrim did that too, since it's been years since I've played it.

That's nonsense. I appreciate the spirit of the dangerous free adventure game, but what the fuck! Most characters aren't ready by the time they rest and it's not adventurous to have to build you character around being murdered in your bed as you build your character. And come on what do you mean you have to go to Ebonheart to clear this curse the game starts you with just because of some rushed DLC

Skyrim still has level scaled weapons/items. It is so gay and it punishes players that actually explore the game and rewards people who just grind.

prophecies are for faggots I make my own way

i cant move

I entered this deep dark cave system filled with shambling flesh monstrosities with absolutely NO preparation wtf why can't my character get out despite the fact that I was woefully unprepared and invested all his time into training speechcraft this is so unrealistic

They can also permanently alter your HP to zero, but you surely didn't need a fucking manual to figure that out

Sir? Your almsivi intervention scroll?

Reload a save, if you really have somehow managed to get fucked. It's functionally no different to damaging your health and killing you is it, retard

I forget whether or not Skyrim did that too

skyrim did it, but it was only for a few things that you get in the thieves guild. which is probably the worst place they can be, being a guild targeting level 1 hobos.

Is TR annoying to install or pretty straight forward and quick? I think I'm going to try it out for the first time tonight.

its easy but you still need to read a guide. its not 100% intuitive.

You're wearing armor made out of the crystallized blood of a dead god, what did you expect

Is it a gotcha mechanic when an enemy attacks you several times and your health goes down, and then you die ?

Medium-low difficulty. Like the other anon said the guide will help you easily. Two installs, unpacks, and folder copy pasting, I think? I just did it last week

thats 2 much for me lad. I dont do anything above medium-easy

Two downloads*, not installs

You're killing me blud. You can do this

horrible creature

I just took a 25mg gummy and I think I've achieved CHIM.

They're also out of reach when your health reaches 0

works on my machine

somehow managed to double all the new TR content

Should have made a fresh install, I guess

Morrowind is STILL filtering retards 20 years later

It is truly the best game ever made.

what did you expect

To not glow since it never glowed back in 2002 and in the older versions of OpenMW.

as soon as this happened to me, I loaded a 5 minute earlier save and bought all the necessery things to counter it from occuring again.
why didn't you adapt?
I save very often.

You can also die when your hp is reduced to zero, which is functionally the exact same (harsher actually) consequence

buy divine intervention scrolls

if it happens, tele straight near an imperal shrine to cure it

dont give up anon. the game tests you all the time. dont fail.

Let me guess, you equipped The Fury? Looks like your stats are permentantly lowered unless you use console commands

there is worse things to complain about.

this shit weights a ton. no wonder zoomies sell it to the vendor instead of hoarding such a valuable item.

The fact that this is who they're designing games for now

yeah, it genuinely is sad that we won't get a game like Morrowind ever again.

Where was I supposed to see this shit

I'm a first time player and I had a bonewalker rape my strength stat where I couldn't move.
I chugged some alcohol that gave +30 strength, which was enough to walk again, as well as dropped a few items.
I then looked up on wiki (yes I know) how to fix it. "go to an imperial shrine". I went to one, bang, it was fixed.
The game throws alchohol at you everywhere early game from looting crates or just on tables that gives 30-50 strength for like 1 minute+.
I didn't even need to reload an old save to unsoft lock myself. I just had enough alcohol to chug it back to town then find a method to fix it.
And then after it happened, I learned how to prepare so it doesn't occur again and whenever I encounter Bonewalkers, Im more careful in combat, and they maybe hit me with the debuff only once, which is easily fixed with a potion sip.
The game teaches you this stuff and it feels good to overcome the odds.
Giving up and chucking a willy is why games like it dont get made anymore.

people complain about having no fatigue

every crate in the game has Restore Fatigue materials to make tons and tons of Restore Fatigue Potions even with no Alchemy skill investments

NOOO THAT DOESN'T COUNT. THE FATIGUE SYSTEM SUCKS.

I love when I was carrying too much shit and my character straight up fell over due to exhaustion into some water as high as my knees and i just fucking drowned.
lesson? dont carry tons of shit and sprint for too long in knee deep water.

like every 2-3rd crate you loot from caves or even houses, has str alcohol. i think there is 3 different variants, which just is like +20 +30 +50 etc.
They are very easy to have like 15+ of them very early in the game from natual gameplay.
Stop looting the useless Moon Sugar and loot the alcohol.

Okay but WHYYYYY are Vvardenfellers so forthcoming with their alcohol? I would never put a hard drink or even a wine in a crate and not consider it theft when it goes missing. I mean WHAT THE HELL GUYS

Too druk + it's probably shit-tier moonshine anyway

Have you seen their women? I'd drink myself blind too!

How about you read the game manual?

Hey, unlike other mer at least dunmer women are sometimes attractive.

Which province has the worst food and drink between Valenwood, Black Marsh, and Morrowind?

Everything is worse in Black Marsh

They can't have any drink worse than Rothmeth surely?

There's no point arguing with Morrowboomers. They are contrarian to the core and will eternally suck Todd's cock despite the game's MAJOR design flaws.

Not even (You) worthy

I'm not your N'wah you S'wit

I am sorry your foray into an older period of gaming was hamstrung by knowledge you could not possibly have. While I cannot recoup your experience, I can tell you what you didn't know going in.

Save early, save often.

>No scrolls because the game said fuck you

you can literally buy them? what do you mean the game said fuck you?
anyway just carry around a handful of sujamma and you will never have this problem

also how are you running into these mobs before you have enough money to buy spells. you can leave seyda neen with over 1000 gold easily, I have a few thousand by the time I'm in balmora.

it sounds like you're just shit at the game.

game autosaves every time you enter a dungeon

WTF DO I DO??

load your save

Morrowind only autosaves on rest

It's my favorite rpg, but all your crtiicisms are completely valid. I can see how someone would prefer Skyrim, especially modded, to morrowind. Oblivioniggers are single cellular organisms i fear

Just drop all your shit and come back after you fix yourself, there's no item physics in Morrowind and items don't despawn so they'll all still be there. Next time carry some Divine and Almisivi intervention scrolls or potions

Zoomiegamer would never think of that and if they did theyd NEVER do it. They will legitimately quit and make a new character rather than have something undesired happen to them and have to adapt and deal with it

you can leave seyda neen with over 1000 gold easily

the game is easy bro

just minmax and powergame bro

just know what to do and where to get all the best items by reading or watching a guide before starting the game bro

Sad thing is, Morrowcucks think this is peak game design

Redguards arent like that. Theyre cool black guys who love to sail and buckleswashes and eat fruit.
Youre thinking of fucking filthy cats and lizards.

play game

be shit at it

cry on Anon Babble

whatever just never play it again go back to your click spamming bullshit you idiot.

You can always drop all your equipment and run away

This happened to me when I first played the game and I just drank some sujamma I had in my inventory.

The good thing about this is it teaches you that YOU can do this to enemies as well as “freeze” them

Just some interesting trivia here.

The hero of kvatch must also be an imperial/breton/nord male specifically. Todd is retarded and should be ignored.

it's hardly powergaming. you get a few hundred gold from watching Fargoth if you don't hand it in, a few hundred gold from the dead taxman quest, and can easily make a few hundred just selling items from around the town. pillage an ancestral tomb or two, which are super easy, and you'll be pushing a few thousand by the time you reach Balmora. I'm not suggesting anything you shouldn't be able to do with just a little bit of exploration and engaging with the game's systems on a basic level. if you just ignore everything around you and run straight to Caius, that's not the game's fault.

Wrong, it did glow back in 02. I could boot up my xbox copy of mw and see the glow.

Of course. Imagine if the hero of Kvatch was a b*ast race or a knife-ears.

dumb frog poster

It's been officially confirmed that "The Prisoner" could be of any race or any gender but never a beast. Man or mer or bust
