    Morrowind is very unforgiving to newcomers! So here's some tips:
    - Morrowind does not have a fast travel system. Instead, you have a huge variety of transportation options. You could take a slit strider, teleport to different cities using the mages guild, take a boat, or learn the spells Mark and Recall, ALMSIVI intervention, and Divine intervention.
    - Morrowind is not a forgiving game, take it slow and level up a bit before doing the main quest. To level up you need to improve your major skills. If a fight is too challenging, you'll simply have to run away.
    - Join the Fighters guild and Imperial Legion before doing the main quest. Those guilds have easy quests that will help you level up your skills. Guilds work differently in this game. You can advance through a guild if you have a high stat in that guild's preferred stats. Like combat skills for fighters guild and mage skills for the Mages guild. So that means you'll probably not be able to do Mages guild with this character, but you can do the Imperial Legion or Fighters guild.
    - If you want to make money quick, go to the city of Caldera and go to Ghorak Manor, there is a merchant upstairs who will buy items from you at full price.
    Sorry for the long post but there is just so many things the game doesnt tell you and I wouldn't want you to give up in frustration.

    A few tips bc Morrowind is a very different beast than Oblivion and Skyrim:
    You can't dual wield spells and weapons, so you'll be doing a lot of retreating to heal up
    You might need to eat alchemy ingredients a few times before you learn some of their properties
    The persuasion system is also based on dice rolls, so you're better off bribing people if you want them to like you.
    Your inventory doesn't tell you which stuff is stolen! Be careful not to try to sell something to the person you stole it from
    If you drop stolen objects from your inventory, they'll no longer be flagged as stolen. So you can pick them back up in front of anyone and sell them to anyone.
    Advancing in guilds is different too. You need to level up the relevant skills before you can get a promotion.
    Read EVERYTHING people tell you; there are no map markers in this game so you need all the directions and context clues you can get!
    And finally: you can fly in this game. Yes it's as awesome and game breaking as it sounds.

  • @Unclevertitle
    @Unclevertitle 5 років тому +59

    So one thing to know about Morrowind is that NPCs don't automatically know if something you sell them has been stolen. So it's possible to make money just stealing random stuff lying around and selling it.
    However, I'd advise against selling it straight back to the merchant you stole it from cause I tried that and was actually caught because the merchant recognized his "red lichen." To this day I don't know if that was a specific quest or generic merchant NPC behavior. (Never got really far into Morrowind)
    Though it seems you've decided on a path where you don't steal everything not nailed down and that's cool too.

    • @aquathird5918
      @aquathird5918 5 років тому +24

      all owned items (those which cause bounty to go up if you are seen looting them) have an NPC tagged to them as owner (invisible to player), if you try to sell the item to the NPC who owns the item, they will recognize it. - However the game does not keep track which individual item was whose, hence if you steal a red lichen from one NPC, you may never sell any red lichen to that NPC or he might recognize it as his own.

    You can wait to rest and regain your health. Morrowind is brutal, you need to go back to the shop and get a better weapon and armor.

      Also you need to wear armor and learn skills according to your race and class. Dunmer have natural bonus to long swords and medium armor so you should get as full set of bone mold armor as early on as possible. Your long swords abilities are going to be really high. Get rid of the dagger, short blades are a whole other skill in Morrowind. If you acknowledge these comments I will tell you about a op sword you can get early on.

    Arrille sells Hearth Heal, which is exactly the minor healing spell you were missing.
    That reaction to Caius! The "burn victim" appearance, the replicated faces and the "full diaper" walking animations are some reasons a lot of people play Morrowind on PC, the faces, bodies and walking animations have undergone many community improvements. It's a Bethesda game after all. They release the game, and the community does the quality assurance.
    Despite that, this still is one of my all-time favorite games.

    Your Fatigue affects pretty much everything in game, especially the "RNG" of combat (whether you deal damage or not) so you want to keep your fatigue high. easy way to do this is to buy "Amulet of Stamina" from Galbedir at highest floor of Mages Guild in Balmora and cast it a few times before a fight when your fatigue is low.

    I've played this game probably way more than I should've, but Morrowind is very much so a game that rewards 'play smarter, not harder'. Don't try and brute force things, or else you will grow to hate it. So here's some tips to help make things less painful.
    1. Keep your fatigue high at all times. No matter what you're doing, whether it's melee, ranged, or magic, because if you have low fatigue you will have a bad time at this, trust me.
    2. Max out Endurance ASAP. The sooner it hits 100, the better, as it's how you gain health as you level up. More endurance, more health, and you can never have too much of it.
    3. You will eventually be attacked by the Dark Brotherhood when you try and sleep, that is how you start the Tribunal questline (which is very difficult and meant for a higher level player), but if you don't at least get to Mournhold, then you will never ever stop getting attacked by the Dark Brotherhood, so just do that ASAP once it happens and get it over with.
    4. SAVE OFTEN, and have multiple saves if you can. Seriously, you do not want to play for a half hour or even 10 minutes playing this game as a newbie and then lose a ton of progress because of that.
    5. Don't pick things up unless you're in the wild or it's for a quest. Things are not labeled as 'owned' or 'stolen' to you, but the game does know, and if you get caught with it, you'll lose EVERYTHING that's marked as stolen.
    6. Try to not keep too much stuff on you. It's annoying, but if you are not going out on questing, drop your gear for a bit and only carry what you need around. On the flip, if you are questing, only take what you must bring with you to survive. This isn't Oblivion or Skyrim where you can carry around a mansion's worth of junk with you at all times, or have a companion to do the same.
    7. Magic is it's own menu and own 'state', as in, you have a ready stance for your weapon, but a SEPARATE ready stance for magic. You need to open your menus and equip a spell or magic item then go into the ready stance for magic to use it.
    8. Spamming attack = bad. You will do nothing but waste your time and your fatigue, as chance to hit is based on how long you hold the attack button along with the level of fatigue you have and your skill level with the weapon. So spamming it is just going to result in frustration to say the least. As I said above: Play smarter, not harder.
    9. Unless it's for a questline, joining a faction requires you to have high levels in some skills or attributes. So for example if you join the Guild of Mages, you cannot become Arch-Mage unless you ACTUALLY level up your magical skills significantly, and do many of the quests for them as well. You can't just join a faction and get maxed out without ever casting a spell.
    10. Join the Fighters Guild and Mages Guild. Despite what i said above, there are a chest of free goodies in each guild and their places in each major city: Balmora, Ald-ruhn, Caldera (Mages Guild only), Sadrith Mora, and Vivec. You must join to be able to take them, but otherwise you may then sell or keep whatever you want. You can get to each city by going to a teleporter (which is represented by a person, it's not a physical device) in each Guild of Mages. It costs a bit of gold per teleport, but it is worth it. You also are not required to be a member of the guild to use that service.
    11. Optionally: Join one of the three Great Houses: Hlaalu (merchants/thieves), Redoran (warriors), or Telvanni (mages). You can only pick one. You can join all the other joinable factions without issue. Becoming the leader of a Great House nets you some nice items, a stronghold to call your own, and makes one part of the last part of the Main Quest a bit easier.
    12. in regards to the Blades Trainers, you will want to go to Rithleen, Tyermaillin, and Nine-Toes, who all live in Balmora. Talk to each of them about being a 'Blades Trainer' and they will give you a couple free items. The others can be safely ignored as they offer little of use unless you just want to meet all of them.

    • @Findonate
      @Findonate 5 років тому +26

      It’s not necessarily that Skyrim is boring to watch but their playthrough is just another playthrough. Why watch them do the main story like everyone else with the generic nord Sigurd? They’re not putting on the typical LaFave flair of not caring and faffing around and instead playing a serious character. Not only have we seen that before, it’s also, sadly, boring.
      Mac being such an atrocious freak only added to the hilarity of his character. I was kinda baffled when they opted for a «serious playthrough» for Skyrim, I mean, why would we want to see that? Everyone has done it or recorded it.

    Word of advice Emmett, you gotta hold your attack button for a few seconds to do the max damage, if your stamina gauge is low your chance to miss goes up rapidly. Combat hasn't aged well.

They need to bring these features with the next elder scrolls games.

  • @Wepospalient
    @Wepospalient 5 років тому +1

    A few things to help you out early on: Magic in morrowind is equipped similar to a weapon, and like a weapon you have a "ready" stance for it, enchanted items in the game also cast spells as opposed to just passive effects, so for example with that engraved ring of healing: you'd equip it, then equip the spell, then go into your spell ready stance and then finally cast the spell. Much like weapons in oblivion and skyrim, enchanted items have charges, and when their charge runs out, you can't cast their spell anymore until it is recharged.
    Number two is the travel system, you can't fast travel via the map in morrowind, you have to use it's various transit systems, silt striders by land, boats by sea, and the mages guilds can teleport you to other mages guilds, I'd suggest you start memorizing what goes where (or just look it up) as this is your only means of fast travel, and many quests will have you traveling far and wide across the breadth of morrowind.
    oh and also waiting or sleeping will restore your health/magicka/stamina
