I'm about to make a stealth-focused character for once. Illusion for Chameleon spells. Alchemy to substitute for other spells. Throwing knives. Yes, it's all coming together.

I did half a game play-through months back. I turned graphics to 4:3 resolution and didn't use any mods, and It was really fun. 4k resolution worked great despite black bars at the side, and I don't think that wide angle is how the game was intended to be played, there's something about the camera that looks off when you play it that way.
I always end up with a mage/figher hybrid no matter what I do. Quality of life spells are just too useful to go without them. Athleticism is a must primary skill for me, as I like traversing the map on foot. Oh, I just remembered, I did mod those cliff racers away. nr.1 nuisance. What's lousy about vanilla Morrowind is loot dispersion. Loot is primarily determined by level, and you end up with glass armour on lowly enemies eventually.

>Quality of life spells are just too useful to go without them
why not enchant them yourself instead?
early game i almost always take a common ring or amulet and enchant 12seconds of waterwalking on it. cliff racer soul will do just fine unless youre literally walking to solstheim or something stupid.

if you need levitation, that one imperial guard in aryons tower gives you one for a quick and easy quest, or you can make an even better one yourself
>levitate 1pt 10secs
>fortify SPD 100pts 10secs
make sure its in that order
if thats too big, you can go lower on the speed.
i find its much more efficient of a spell/enchantment than trying to boost levitation on its own. its definitely much much faster in terms of movement speed than any of the vanilla levi spells/enchants

really, if youre having trouble not being a mage because of shit like that, thats an easy fix. just take enchant as a primary. its a good stand-in, and often preferable over, basically any and all magic skills

>>3644308
dont sleep on sanctuary
high AGI character + cast on use sanctuary gear can get pretty nutty. almost nothing can even touch you. thats how i did my monk, and i would almost never get hit. especially once i got to punching and depleting their fatigue

Yuck, are your really playing the XBox version?

Just get the PC version for 15 bucks on Steam or GoG, your experience will be much better.

>>3644306
I only approach the game one way.

>>3644436
>mage/fighter hybrid
It's too easy to fall into the trap of
>i gotta get married to this character for 600 hours
>so better make the most of it
and then end up with a boring character who spends time grinding so they can use that one spell.

And that one spell comes in a bottle. For about 30 gold. Or any other consumable.

I used to think the premade classes were for people who didn't know what they're doing, but now they look like limitations intended to make the game more interesting.

Quick playthroughs are better. You're less likely to get caught up in the metagaming bullshit. No time for that. Your character has strengths and weaknesses. Game stays challenging for longer. Get a bonus on one of your weaker attributes because you read that skill book? Neat.

I was going to make a thread;

Any advice on first full playthrough of Morrowind?

>>3645094
Keep the green bar full. Fatigue affects your character performance on everything, from hitting enemies to selling items.

Don't travel with full inventory. It slows you down and you lose stamina faster.

You want to start with your main skills over 30, preferably at 40, to have good performance in them. Choose your class and race accordingly.

The Warrior birthsign is good, helps you hit enemies with weapons.

alchemy lifehax

>always carry raw stoneflower, and corkbulb
former can be eaten to de-bonewalker your STR, and the latter for if you get paralyzed. 0.1 weight a piece, so much lighter than standard potions
NOTE: this requires the codepatch option that makes it so you cant be too stupid to eat raw ingredients, which is how it was in vanilla. i assume most play with this on

>similar idea but with raw luminous russula, and violet coprenius
waterbreathing and waterwalking, respectively. no alteration or alchemy skill required. tons of them right at the start. theyre heavier than the ones i mentioned prior, and only last a few seconds, but thats enough to save your ass early on

>skooma pipe as alembic
if you dont wanna carry all your alchemical equipment on adventures, a decent mortar and pestle + a good skooma pipe is enough to deal with any on-the-road potions curing diseases etc you need to make. decent retort makes everything stronger, but calcinators are heavy, so i leave that shit at home

>RECIPES:
lube
>marshmarrow
>saltrice
>heather

I've been enjoying playing as a thief. Did some quests for the thieves guild and Ranis of the mages guild.

You are thoughever. Swords are mediocre unless you have some big reason to use them (you're a redguard), you can get a bound battleaxe and shit on the entire game just by starting with conjuration and axes.
Builds matter in that they determine what you're gonna do early, but they don't in that thinking about the mechanics for 2 seconds means you eventually stomp on the game without trying no matter what you do.

Unarmored Sword and Spear Noble who is joining the Legion: wanted to join before being incarcerated but didn't meet the standards to join. Assuming Breton, but haven't made the character yet.

>>3645454
Yeah. There is literally no reason to give a shit about the relative strength and weaknesses of everything. Short swords are the "best" weapon in the game because they can apply enchantments the fastest and hitstun the easiest, which are the two only things that actually matter at all. It sucks because morrowind really is fun to explore but the gameplay is so fucking basic a child could master it

>>3645469
>Short swords are the "best" weapon in the game because they can apply enchantments the fastest and hitstun the easiest
Meh. Axes/warhammers/claymores can drop enemies on their knees and then stomp them dealing 1.5x damage

>>3645396
you can do it with any skill
if you dont have the codepatch option (which is default on, i believe) selected then your ability to get any effect will be proportional to your alchemy stat, and i think INT and LCK.
with the codepatch on it works every time. you always get the first effect, for a random amount of time, even if you cant see it in the menu.

really useful for idiot brute characters that couldnt mix a potion to save their lives

Finally, hit level 2 and it only took me 13 in game days.

I want to have a run as an Imperial thief, doing thieves and hlaalu to get that nice mansion on the coast, but I think I'll just try to something like that in Skyrim instead.
Feels like Skyrim doesn't demand much of your character in the main quest, unlike becoming Nerevarine, and having to risk your safety and visit filthy tribesmen. I could find little motivation for a man thief to do the main quest, let alone bloodmoon and tribunal, yet I'd love to.
If you have any thoughts..

>>3646349
>little motivation for a man thief to do the main quest
For the first half it's not like you get an option, you're the Emperor's bitch. After Caius leaves and you're on your own, you're deep in enough that it's really only in your own interest to keep going.
There won't be anything to steal if Dagoth purges n'wahs like you and turns the whole island into Chernobyl, besides.

>bloodmoon
Beats me. Mercenary work is a good intro. You could've been in the Legion before and stayed in contact with some people who gave you a tip on some easy work. Anywhere the EEC is involved is going to have plenty of opportunities to make $$$ legally or not.

>tribunal
There's a contract on your head nigga. Go get that solved.

>>3646530

I saw and tried a new mod Maxar's Unpaused, makes it so that opening up inventory doesn't stop time. I definitely recommend it, it's a nice change to how you approach the game. I've definitely started thinking about preparation more now.

>>3644306
Replaying for the first time in many years. It's been so long It's almost feeling like a new game. I'm making an effort to engage with the world building and lore by actually reading books and character text. I was a retarded teenager when the game came out so I ignored all of that stuff and just ran around stealing stuff and looting dungeons.
Anyway, I've gotten myself stuck with the Balmora Fighter's guild quest line. I joined the thieves guild for the hell of it, and now Sottilide won't give me the damn book i need for a Fighter's guild quest. I tried getting kicked out of the thieves guild but that didn't work. I guess I'm going to have to kill her.

>>3649190
Won't she give it if you raise her disposition? Also I'm not sure if you could hand-to-hand her unsconscious and then pickpocket her

I must have uninstalled the game and I'm fucking pissed I can't remembered what it is I did last time that enabled me to play 1920x1080
It wasn't OpenMW and it wasn't MGE
Was there maybe a /v/ type guide to installing it kinda similar to viva new vegas? Any clues?

>>3649190
Just pickpocket it, stack Chameleon items/potions/scrolls if you need to. It's actually better to resolve the quest this way, otherwise you can lock yourself out of joining the Thieves Guild unless you're very specific with your timing.

>>3649226
>won't she give it if you raise her disposition?
She'll only do that if you're not already a member of the Thieves Guild when you ask, so pickpocketing is the best solution. You can get it through dialogue whole joining both guilds, but it requires particular timing and a bit of metagaming namely, you have to join the Fighter's Guild first, receive the quest, get the book off her and the join the Thieves Guild after acquiring the book but before returning it to Eydis.

Guys did you know you can pin the map so it stays on screen when you exit the menu?

>>3649581
Maybe I misunderstood, I thought you were asking how to play in 16:9 (by default the game has 4:3 options, as was the style at the time). Pretty sure MGE XL is what you want.

If you’re asking about the launcher having “data files” option to select masters and plugins, that’s always been there. If you’re seeing a mod configuration menu within the actual game main menu then I dunno about that

Come to think of it, it looks a bit stretched and the color seems off as well. Dialog boxes are really small.
I know that I can tinker with the options and mod in better dialog boxes but to my recollection, last time I installed I've only needed the code patch.

How do I make gane hard without it being "just don't use any of the cool stuff, no alc, no train, no enchant, no bound, no good spells,. Just have a tedious time trading blows in melee and rest after every fight."

Thinking.
-mod to remove int and luck on alch ingredients. Crafted items sell for zero.
-No attribute or skill on cystom enchants
-mod for slower leveling
-Gave to accept outcome of crimes, can only save in town
-max slider at all times

What else?

>>3650701
>How do I make gane hard
You can't, the game has no obstacles beyond removing tedium.

>>3650701
Maybe no custom spells. Will make you use merchant ones and think on your feet rather than make cheese spells

>>3650704
Do you play with a character that is hated to have 999 in everything at all times?

>>3650709
Think about what obstacles you would encounter in your playthrough and how you'd avoid them. There just isn't much there and the ways to bypass issues in the game are usually simple and stupid. So it's only possible to have more or less tedium in morrowind, because it never had gameplay to engage with.

>>3650717
It's basically a dungeon crawler with advanced cities. Is the dungeon crawler genre itself at fault or is it just that morrowind does it bad?

>>3650722
Dungeon crawlers generally have resource management, type weaknesses, a variety of threats, etc. Morrowind has none of those things. It also makes no sense to call Morrowind a dungeon crawler as most of morrowinds dungeons are a closet with 3 level scaled enemies in them.

>>3650724
Like on paper Morrowind has all the ingredients of a proper dungeon crawler. It's got resources, bad stuff that can happen to you that isn't just taking damage, damage types and resistance. Is it just fucked on design to the point you cant fix it even with mods and self-imposed rules?

>>3650701
>How do I make gane hard
There was a new mod on nexus a day ago that made enemies higher level

>>3650454
>What's wrong with it? Does it change the game too much or?
No, obsessed trannies here find some extremely minor changes to bitch and moan about.

>>3650728
>Like on paper Morrowind has all the ingredients of a proper dungeon crawler.
It doesn't though. That's the problem. The systems design of morrowind doesn't work on paper. Which is why it's a bad game.

>>3650805
Could you elaborate? Why can it not be a proper dungeon crawlers with a few mods?

>>3650813
Because it's not a consistent system. When devs make games, even stuff like action games not just rpgs, they make a tabletop sketch first to outline the basic ruleset and gameplay. Bethesda doesn't do this. They just randomly pile in mechanics that aren't connected and don't form a coherent system and the end result is that all these mechanics are unsatisfying and worthless. Fixing morrowind would mean completely redesigning it from the ground up, which can't be done by applying seperate mods designed in a vacuum, which is essentially the thought process which led to morrowind being shitty in the first place. This is why older games like arena and daggerfall are so utterly broken and dysfunctional, because the design process at bethesda is deeply flawed and lazy.

They are basically this:

But a video game.

>>3650813
>Why can it not be a proper dungeon crawlers with a few mods?
Nta, but Morrowind isn't a dungeon crawler. The dungeons are quite small, so mods don't have a lot of room to work with.

Makes sense, since nothing stops you from spending time doing just that.
An alternative would be for the game to set restrictions, but I don't see mods doing that being very popular. People who end up with maxed stats apparently like playing that way.

Been a while since I last played it, but I came up with a 'Diver' class on my last save. The idea was to explore shipwrecks around Vvardenfell and approach the main + guild quests at my own leisure. It's primarily for RP, not meta cheesing.


Diver; (ideally Breton or High Elf)

Specialization: Combat
Attributes: Endurance, Luck
Birthsign - Any (I went with The Tower)

Major:
Heavy Armor
Alteration
Armorer
Mercantile
Spear

Minor:
Athletics
Medium Armour
Restoration
Security
Short Blade

Description:
With their heavy nautical suits and spells to ease underwater traversal, divers eagerly scour the ocean depths for lost treasures and artifacts.
Their aptitude for wielding spears and short blades against hostile marine fauna makes any dedicated diver a resilient battler, but many are simply dismissed as eccentric scavengers.

>>3652375
A cool niche idea. Diving for pearls is good money too. I'd put athletics and acrobatics as majors, to make travel more pleasant. With steed birthsign.. I'll keep this idea in mind, it's good for a quick and relaxing playthrough.

I did a hlaalu run with TR a couple of months ago and its pure kino, Every single quest feels like it could have been in the base game without anyone noticing the difference

>feels like it could have been in the base game
High praise for modder's work. It takes some restraint not to overdo it, and many are eager to see what they can do, resulting in content that doesn't fit well.

I just finished mine last week and I did it with one of the mods that lets you join the Camonna Tong as well as Fligg's slave mod

It's literally just a discord raid. No one here that posts regularly likes TES.

you will never be a real dunmer

new TR release when?

No, but me and a 40-something russian woman who I've been friends with over the internet since I was a minor(like 15 years old or something) have spent the last decade since she introduced me to Morrowind autistically developing a massive headcanon for every single province that corrects the narrative/worldbuilding problems she had with Oblivion and Skyrim while examining the Great War period in greater detail.

I have played some of it. I like it okay. Some of the quests feel wrong, and sometimes I get the sense that the ethics of the writers are getting in the way of the quest writing. There was one I did about a hlaalu farm that was fucking up a river and some Ashlanders were assmad and it felt totally wrong for what both of those groups are normally like. (One Hlaalu incompetent at negotiation while the other is unwilling to, nomadic Ashlanders reliant upon and weirdly hippy-like about this river)
Also these retards need to stop putting the Song of Pelinal everywhere. It's an ancient fragmentary text of a gilgamesh-style warrior hero. How many people keep ancient fragmentary texts on their bookshelf? How many dunmers in rural morrowind should be doing it?

Douglass Goodall himself released a mod that adds new quests to the game and provides more information about major NPCs. Would you play that?

I've been randomly rolling characters, by rolling for race, birthsign, and character class(all base classes). My most recent playthrough was a bosmer nightblade, born under the lord. If you combine it with strict adherence to class kills(No off list spells, weapons, or armor), and don't cheese the economy with alchemy or soul gems, the game plays very differently

spend as much money on training as possible, until you're saving up for enchantments you don't really want to hold on to too much money at a time.

I like a good lizard play through, but they should've just outright banned scalies and curries fr going anywhere near a telvani as anything other than a slave, thief or assassin

>the game plays very differently
I tried that usual cheese stuff once about 10 years ago, and found it so boring and unsatisfying I never played that way again. All that metagaming shit just takes me out of the roleplaying mindset, a distraction.

>>3658189
>the game plays very differently
no it doesnt lol

>>3658825
yep, I did that on my previous incomplete run of an argonian. plan on finishing that with a few modifications this time aroun without min maxing too hard since it ruined the game for me previously..
thinking of doing an argonian with spear, medium armor, conjuration and destruction (yeah, its basic but so what?)
>going to old ebonheart and starting there instead with the mages and fighters guild (maybe even astrologers guild?) instead,
>eventually return to morrowind to pick up the main quest,
>mix in a bit of daedric quests for whatever gods are most appropriate to be worshipped for how im playing my character,
>hop over to tribunal and kill almalexia and soul trap her to make a pair of underpants that regenerate vigor as a constant effect,
>get the appropriate gear that'll hold me over till end game probably (mantle of woe, the magic guilds leader's neckalce, adamantine armor to be replaced by ice, an ebony spear till the end, amalexias underwear, good looking robes and scarves, mararas ring, dunstager ring .... the usual overpowered items
>finish the main quest,
>do solstheim and finish building the town there
im entirely unsure how to integrate skyrim project into this, or if it even could he integrated
any tips? advice on which daedric princes to do besides azura? More fun options for equipment? Better replacements? worse replacement for armor that would make this run more fun? any cool quests you'd definately do? Quest mods not worth missing out on this playthroigh? etc?

I liked Gothic more than Morrowind

>>3658912

>>3658924
Damn. bro. There is no need to seethe and cry just because I like a superior game

>>3659158
