I love your series, and this is no different so far. But you wrote "Charismatic Flare", and I don't care if it's deliberate engagement bait; I have to point It out.
The spell is sparkly like a signal flare. A simple cantrip to ingratiate myself to my target. This isn't me trying to pretend I didn't bone-apple-tea the spell.
Flare is one of the most powerful offensive spells a Black Mage (aka Destruction specialist) can learn in the Final Fantasy series. So Charismatic Flare is a suitably powerful boost to one's personality. Of course, it only last an instant, but so does a gigantic explosion, so it's appropriate.

24:54 Actually, after being named Nerevarine and talking with Falura about bridegroom, if you talk to Kaushad about his bride, he will say that he knew you tried to trick him. Despite this, he’s not angry; he calls you clever and is content with the wife given. As a reward, he then gives you a unique shirt.
"I want a big telvanni gal, one whom will help me rule my tribe" "How about a tall yellow lady, and you give me a pass?" Nerevarine questlines in a nutshell. I thought they'd be much harder, but after exploring the world looking for junk to sell or horde to appease my instincts to hold all of Tamriels forks in a single room their quests weren't that hard. Even finding the secret chamber where the ring is kept wasn't that hard because I'd accidentally gotten immersed during my quest for forks.
@@DIEGhostfish You can use fast travel with them; lets you avoid the water non-sense even if it takes an extra minute. There's a few encounters along the way which fills in for the "waiting for tall yellow lady" time. I also usually roll with athletics and high speed, after a while you get used to every follower NPC saying "Wait for me!" while zipping around like a subatomic particle.
The knocked-Out Bonelord was really funny... since the knock-out animation is basically the same as the death animation, the Bonelord just kind of compresses to a pancake, with the difference that there is no particle effect and the robes don't disappear. It looks really strange, but I guess the real question is why undead even have stamina.
Same with machines, you can beat a dwarven sphere until it gets downed. I could understand one of those Iron Fist turtle-handed monks being able to punch through things, but the fact that we can beat them until they get *tired* impresses me. Or ghosts, you can't usually hit them with H2H but can drain fatigue on them until they drop.
The funniest enemy-afflicted-by-effect animation is the knockdown animation for skeletons in Oblivion. They just explode. Bones in every direction. Then slowly form back together.
14:11 I imagine you're not really "fatiguing" them, so much as just smacking them apart until the magic animating them has to stop and rearange all the bones you knocked loose.
I mean it makes perfect sense when you really think about it. What is a ghost if not a soul without a body? Well doesn't your body CONTAIN a soul? Your punching the Ghost with your Soul!
@@patrickbuckley7259 I have a better one. You're the chosen one in every Elder Scrolls game. Supposedly, save and load are just you seeing different possible realities as the chosen. Therefore... you ARE enchanted. Your very BEING is enchanted, so your fists are already enchanted weaponry.
The idea of playing the game as a preset class, and only using that classes skills, is actually a fun way to make the game more enjoyable for an experienced player. I have so many hours and know how to break this game in a million different ways. Forcing myself to use weird skills would actually be so fun.
Your Morrowind videos are all excellent. As a fellow Skyrim-baby (got that a couple months after it came out), you got me to try out the game, and I've been loving it.
Hand to Hand is OP. once I managed to get H2H to around 65-70 I was beating up Dremoras and Daedra etc. Even with a mod that adds extra Bandits etc, I could hold off a gang of 6 by just focusing on one bandit and punching them until they would pass out, then start punching a second bandit, when the first bandit got back up, I'd punch them again a couple of time and knock them out again, and go back to punching the 2nd bandit, until I had a circle of unconscious bandits around me, which I could then start focusing on punching them for health damage while they were unconscious. It was fun juggling bandits. Subscribed BTW, your narration can be hilarious at times.
The moment you were in the incarnate's cave I suddenly started wondering whether the ghosts are just regular NPCs or some special coding magic. Thank you for immediately answering that question for me! 22:49
I love these OpenMW vanilla challenges, keep it up! Just know that every time your fatigue ever drops below 30% I’m secretly judging you and saying Ordinator voicelines to myself. PS LMAOOOOO I STARTED WRITING THIS BEFORE 3:45 wp
playing a thief with unarmored+hand-to-hand+sneak as my combat skills, was the hardest start of the game, but by far my favourite end game build. 100% recommend
You've inspired me to pick up Morrowind again! Decided to randomly roll for my starting Race, Attributes, Skills and Sign, then roll for which three Attributes to increase each level up. I've been enjoying it a lot, breaks me out of some of my optimizer habits.

So here's something interesting I learned about Morrowind. If you are level 20 and have 50 Reputation, you can skip being named Nevarine and Hortator. That isn't super useful for you because it would take more time to do than doing it the normal way.
Literally just read about this yesterday! But I feel like it’s kinda tedious. But it’s cool that Morrowind has such moments, like this or killing Vivec
@@queru1ous I think it's there as sort of a reward for players who who everything else first. Oddly enough not all questlines give rep. The Fighter's Guild doesn't give any.
Games like this and Half-Life really are the gift that keeps on giving with all the small details, tricks, quirks, etc. I never about that one either despite the absurd amount of time I've spent either playing TES or reading the UESP over the years. Thanks for sharing, sera.
Gotta say, just happened across your vids and channel recently, always enjoy seeing someone challenge themselves in different ways. As *something of a Morrowind player myself* I've come up with some challenge ideas as well. Some of em are fairly simple, just adding some restrictions to force you to play a certain way while reducing options to increase challenge that way. Others are much more brutal, one of which I like to refer to as Azura's Champion which has a LOT of rules and essentially forces you into a hardcore run that can only use quest rewards; or of course anything in between, if you should have any interest in learning more. Either way, great vid and look forward to what you do next.
man you would NOT catch me trying something like this without damage fatigue spells, a mod that changes unarmed, or werewolf form. It takes some real dedication to do these kinds of masochism runs.
I remember trying monk years and years ago, and I loved playing the character. They leveled up immensely fast, and I could travel at hilarious speeds just hippidy-hopping through the archipelago, and I think it was the first ever run where I hit 100 skill thanks to how fast unarmed went up. There was something liberating about that one.
I wish I had the patience to do this because the idea of a guy becoming the strongest dude in Morrowind just by punching crap is awesome and hilarious.
So the firs time I played Morrowind ever, I answerd the questions to get a class... It gave me Witch Hunter. Which is probably the worst class for a new player. It has Enchant and Alchemy as major skills
Good video, I've actually done this build many times actually. I have even files on OG Xbox with custom class listed as monk. I love the freedom that this game allows.
"I'm a god, how can you kill a god? Such a grand an intoxicating innocence." Nerevarine: *punches Dagoth Ur so hard the pottery flies off his face and he becomes Voryn Dagoth again*
Dude 13k subs. Im so happy for you dude. Great videos as always. Goes to show it isnt RS3 OR OSRS that I like watching. Its the personalities behind the gameplay.
I've never played any of the Morrowind games, but it's very entertaining to watch you quickly and easily break the mechanics of this game over your knee doing something funny and wild.
2:00 it's important to note that this is an OPTIONAL improvement in OpenMW! Now with Lua scripting, and even before with a little C++, you can modify the game a lot. I used to play with a very very simple patch that I wrote (by commenting like two lines of code lol) that made pickpocketing a bit more like Skyrim - enabling you to pickpocket equipped items. Fun.
It's also worth pointing out if you aren't interested in the OpenMW side of playing the game, that there's also an option included for strength based HtH in the Morrowind Code Patch, which I would highly recommend.
Nice, someone likeminded! I only play Morrowind as "my class" too, only using the skills, what my class has. I use Scrolls tho, because they are meant to make up for the things you dont know.
As a kid playing Morrowind on Xbox I was terrified of the Ghosts but seeing someone literally punch one to non existents was something I never knew about as a kid as soon as I had seen one I would just run and I didn't know how to save so if I died I would be back to the beginning great video love the commentary dude.
Your Morrowind videos are what made me finally buy the game for myself. I'm a newer Elder Scrolls fan, my first entry was Skyrim's special edition is 2016, and going back to such an old game didn't seem worth it. I'm so glad I changed my mind.
Shoutouts to the "Scoundrel" Khajiit character I ran a couple years ago, which was (eventually) focused on H2H as the primary "weapon"; it actually has surprisingly great synergy with short-blades, since landing a hit with one of the paralyze-daggers gives you free reign to punch away for practice It wasn't overpowered either, since even with some Light Armor and Unarmored training, he was still really squishy - I still distinctly remember sneaking into that Malacath shrine in the Vivec city sewers and the Orc warriors in there absolutely obliterated me
Your comment about the usage of the word "portal" is actually similar to why I ended up needing to look up how to get into Azuras shrine during the main quest - I assumed the prophecy was referring to something much more fancy than the vaguely lighter rocks in the area, and there would be some kind of magical sign that I was in the right spot
Great stuff mate, goddamn I love this game, first one I played where I understood why people play games... in fact I loved it so much I used to do a play through every year until I actively tried to stop and still probably think about the game once or twice a week. Found out this year, after seeing a doctor for the first time since i was a kid, im autistic to point that social workers are apologising to me that the state didnt step in sooner. Goddamn this is a good game, I might play it tonight
@@HowBoutDemBoyzz oh yeah man, made a high elf Mage, played for a night, then fell into the depressing thought "what am I doing with the limited time I've been given on this planet?" So made a 2 hand orc instead
"Feeding two birds with one scone." I've never heard this alternative of the idiom before. I like it! A lot less violent. We could all do with a little less violence. I always pronounced it "KY-us COH-suh-deez." But I've heard it pronounced every which way at this point. Also, "ald-ROON." Again, who actually knows except Morrowind's writers lol.
Man... this brings the nostalgia of my first custom class morrowind character. Only difference was I traded out block, light armor, marksman, and blunt for alchemy, alteration, enchanting, and mysticism. Slow as all hell to kill things, but I was ridiculously hard to kill.
its such a shame they dumbed down (and then removed) the custom spell creator. It was SO COOL! They could have fleshed it out to be even more awesome as technology improved, but nooo they had to go the exact opposite direction with it :/
I love your series, and this is no different so far.

I always pronounced it "KY-us COH-suh-deez." But I've heard it pronounced every which way at this point. Also, "ald-ROON." Again, who actually knows except Morrowind's writers lol.
Man... this brings the nostalgia of my first custom class morrowind character. Only difference was I traded out block, light armor, marksman, and blunt for alchemy, alteration, enchanting, and mysticism. Slow as all hell to kill things, but I was ridiculously hard to kill.
Love this. I never did a hand to hand in morrowind because the tedious part about draining fatigue, oblivion on the other “hand” is OP
its such a shame they dumbed down (and then removed) the custom spell creator. It was SO COOL! They could have fleshed it out to be even more awesome as technology improved, but nooo they had to go the exact opposite direction with it :/
I forgot the Mudcrab merchant is picky with what items he wants to buy from you, in my experience when dealing with him I always got my money up.
Subbed! Funny comments and one of my most nostalgic games combined, what else can I wish for Christmas!
just when i was about to take a nap. Perfect. Not htat your videos are sleepers think of it like a bedtime story
The fuckin "I'm always getting in lost in Vivec" joke was too tier holy fucking shit dude
UA-cam REALLY wanted me to watch this.
I must represent the precise target audience for this video in the algo.
you remind me of micky D, good shit man def subscribing
A monk of Dibella? Well, they do say Dibellans know how to use their hands well...
I like how many quests in Morrowind amount to just bribing someone. Everyone is on the take in this place.
With both unarmed and unarmored being skills, we've all thought of this.
love your videos man, really relaxing to watch
4:40 There is a mudcrab vendor that has a gold inventory of like 10000 I think. I cam't remember where he is at but it should be easy to look up.
Love quality morrowind videos, subbed and waiting for more
