The more you jump, the stronger your jump gets. I remember jumping everywhere I went in that game, eventually I turned into Spiderman.
Also, it helps to not be wearing full armour. ^^
Yea, I did too, and it wasn't all that...but then I took off my medium/heavy armour and man, I could literally jump from one building to the other in Balmora lmao
Same as Oblivion right?
@@TotallyNoCat Same thing with the sneak system in Oblivion, a trick we used to do back in the day at the very start. Just sneak next in a corner lol
jumping is the main source of my transportation through the game, stairs? Spam jump up, open road? Jump, feels fast. stairs down? jumping makes falling down faster, dont want to take stairs from building? just jump down and take the hit
Only game I’ve ever played where I kept a handwritten notebook filled with directions and alchemy ingredients. 10/10
why would you ever handwrite down something that is already written in your journal word for literal word?
Thats just terrible game design. No game should have you keep track of info outside of the game 😂
@@donilexington4600 Well it's an RPG based on tabletop RPGs where taking notes is normal if you like tabletop RPGs that shouldn't be an issue
@brenyd yeah... I do not like tabletop games lol. I tried getting into DnD and warhammer, but they bore me so much. I never thought of it like this. Thank you for your insight.
@@EasyGameEh For fun, duh.

@@uraniumcranium2613DON'T MENTION THIS MF
I remember my first time fighting him it did not turn out so well.
This game captured my imagination like nothing else as a child. One of my neighbors just gifted it to me on the original xbox when I was like 9 because he thought it was trash. This was the first game I'd roleplay in before I really even knew what RPG's were. I used to be in school drafting up future characters that I would go on to make later that day when I got home, backstories and all.
Hell yeah same here my guy
"I'm gonna screenshot this because I'm not gonna remember these instructions.."
My brother in Christ, there's a journal you can check whenever you want
my brother in christ, those specific instructions were not copied in the journal. ive kept playing since i recorded this and i haven’t had the same issue. but in that specific scenario i was not crazy to screenshot 😅
@@jayveeeee Maybe play the PC version next time? Playing the console version is like choosing to travel in a wheel chair
@@jayveeeee It does actually record them, if you check your journal for "Topics" you can choose all the topics you've discussed with NPCs and those are copied by verbatim there.
the instructions are in the journal you just gotta search for topics
@@jayveeeee Yes they are just open topics in the journal and it'll show recorded conversations.
Remember when Bethesda was fucking god tier? That game was my life for a while
how long of a while?
Skyrim was their double edged sword
The thing about Morrowind for newcomers is you have to give it time. You have to adjust and understand this game was made at a different time. But once you can put yourself at that level and truly grasp the game, it's without a doubt the best Elder Scrolls game.
Highly disagree. Oblivion is the best Bethesda game of all time. Marrowwind lacks game development.
@@donilexington4600 You're insane
@thegamingpigeon3216 and you're stuck in your old ways old man. 😂😂😂 how's that windows Vista treating you? 😂😂😂
@@donilexington4600 cope harder my guy
@thegamingpigeon3216 have fun with the shitty hit boxes, no mana regeneration, no sprint. No detail in quest lines, and no voice acting. 😂😂😂
HE KILLED THE SCRIB NOOO
all it wanted was pets and chin scratches.
If you haven't played Morrowind you haven't lived. This game should be on a list of games you need to play before you die
Real, TES players have not tried a real mage build until they try Morrowind's magic and spells
@SnowRemnant I really want this game to get a remaster using the original engine and unreal engine 5. It's just such a gem that it's too bad. Most won't play it because if the graphics
Meh
just wait 'till he finds out about graphics mods and, of course, Tamriel Rebuilt
I’ll play Skywind can’t play morrowind to old for me my limit was oblivion
Please keep playing morrowind. Despite beating the game myself, it's so much fun to watch you play the game the peaceful normal intended way, unlike most people who just know the ins and outs of it.
It really is a shame that we'll never get another game like Morrowind again. This games journal, lack of quest markers, and dialogue system is just incredible. Then add modern combat and graphics, it would be my dream.
The lack of quest markers is why I won't play it. I don't have time to follow directions. Just mark that shit on my map
@@llkjjjss I can respect that, for me it makes the world so much more immersive, but sometimes the more obscure locations I wished were mapped lol
@@llkjjjss "i don't have time to follow directions" ("i don't have braincells so i need everything laid out to me as easy as it can get so i can just get my dopamine hit and not actually enjoy a story") lol
@@vitorsalles5919 What's wrong with that, though? People have preferences, and games are meant to be entertainment, by definition.
So what if someone wants a quick dopamine hit from a videogame? Maybe they prefer storytelling in different mediums, etc.
@@roul4842 There's plenty wrong with chasing dopamine hits. Like a lot wrong. But you can do the research about it.
"oh my god, look at my dumb hat"
a million voices cried then
The colovian helm is a proud and impressive piece of headwear, worn only by the bravest heroes!
You missed the best thing ever in a video game if you had ventured left from the starting village instead of following the story, something hilarious happens. Just be sure to save after you test it yourself.
So what happens
Oh Tarhiel. . . you're contributions to the art of Alteration will never be forgotten

Dude your commentary & editing was just perfect with the goofiness of morrowind. I rarely watch people play games but this was hilarious
thanks so much for taking the time to write this! really glad you enjoyed :)
@@jayveeeee no problem man. I’m subbed and gonna check out your other videos, keep it up
lmao true. I chuckled when he commented on the walking animations cause I remember thinking the same my first time playing. Esp the beast races that look like they have a stick up their butt xD
GOATED game. You must finish it.
It's about damn time! Should do it as a series going through the game. Also, every playthrough as different class feels drastically different. Highly recommend doing a Dark Elf destruction mage and doing the Telvanni house, at some point.
The LORE and worldbuilding of this game is the best in the series. Deep, weird, alien, profound stuff. It's complicated and difficult, for adults. The combat gets more satisfying as you get up in levels some, because your "hit chance" goes up as your agility stats do. Everything in the combat is like dice rolls in D&D, but in some ways it gets really fun and interesting as you get more powerful and the tide starts to turn from you feeling outclassed, to you starting to really kick ass.
It's really cool to see this, I also played Morrowind for the first time somewhat recently. It's... so big. Like mind numbingly huge. And it gets even bigger when you start looking into mods. There are a couple different ongoing mods that add SO much stuff to the game, and apparently most of it is on par quality-wise with the rest of the game. It's just ridiculous lol. Great vid!! Would love to see more
You'd actually be amazed. I would argue it's BETTER than the original quests and world design. These modders have been working with Morrowind longer than the developers did. Tamriel Rebuilt add half a continent to the game.
seeing this video on my recommendations yesterday got me back on the morrowind grind, thank you
Play Mercenaries 1 and/or 2 if you haven't done already. Hope you're having a good year so far!
Not 2, NOT TWO!!!
@@Unknown-Gamplay I enjoyed it tbh. Soundtrack and atmosphere was baller, and so was the destruction.
The water physics are INSANE.
Many summers were spent playing this on Xbox. Game changing open world, back in the day, every system and every game was pushing the boundaries. Today....it's corporate as shit, games are made for profit, rather passion.
Morrowind is my all time favorite game, glad you enjoyed it too.
Really glad you checked this game out! One of my personal all time favorites
So nostalgic - I played this when it first came out on PC in 2000 - it was ground-breaking at the time. Loved the way it didn't hold your hand and you had to figure s**t out for yourself - first playthrough was a LONG one.
You mean 2002?
I can't remember for sure; whenever it first came out on PC
Might wanna keep a close eye on that stamina bar. It makes a big difference.
I like how enemies have limited magicka that they expend fairly quickly.
Plus the lack of level scaling, so when you've become a walking legendary hero, you can absolutely annihilate the random bandit idiots who want to attack you. On the flipside, getting your ass handed to you fighting in an area or enemy beyond your capacity, It's 100 times more satisfying coming back & realizing how much stronger your character is!
This is such a beautiful and natural first time experience. This is so great.
That is awesome, would love to see more of you playing it
Morrowind is in my top 3 favorite games. I played it back in the early 2000s and it just hit different. The music from that game still triggers a certain feeling that's hard to replicate.
Im the same and have never experienced morrowind but i will, i feel its that kind of game you need to be okay with taking slowly!
Glad to see the first Dwemer ruin went well for you. Many people across the years have ragequit from not being able to find the puzzle box on top of just not understanding combat by this point. My rule of thumb is I'll run everywhere until I hear combat music or if I know I'm about to be in combat. Fatigue is king in Morrowind. Be careful of unarmed enemies as punches do fatigue damage, knock you to the ground when at zero fatigue, then will start to do health damage. Can be very dangerous. Note that fatigue affects spell casting too.
If things start to get too hairy and maybe you wanna try another character, I always recommend a Dunmer majoring in at least Conjuration, Short Blade, and Light Armor to beginners. Conjuration's starter spell is Bound Dagger which is very strong for Short Blade characters and is very magicka efficient. Light Armor tends to be the better armor too, but you can go through the game as anything honestly as long as there's logic to it. Mysticism is a nice skill to have for Mark/Recall (Mark a location and then Recall will instantly teleport you back to that exact position) as well as Divine/Almsivi Intervention which will teleport you to the nearest Imperial Cult/Tribunal Temple.
Finally, I highly recommend approaching things as if you're in the world. A mission to kill rats? Collect flowers and mushrooms? Collect late guild dues? "That's lame" a lot of people might say, but IMO it makes the guilds come across as a more realistic organization. They're not going to send you out to clear a dangerous ruin full of undead when you've only just joined the guild and your capabilities are unproven. Honestly Morrowind has my favorite guilds with my favorite being the Tribunal Temple though I'm heavily biased as a huge Dunmer enjoyer. The Tribunal Temple especially demands you put yourself into the world as if you're just running through for the sake of completing quests it's a ton of pointless travel, but I see you and the player character making a pilgrimage, learning about the world, understanding the faith and why it's important to these people.
Quick tip, jump all the time whenever you are just walking somewhere, it level's up your acrobatics and that makes you jump higher. also leveling up is dependent on leveling up your skills, so just do all of the things to level up your character whenever you rest
It's my favorite game of all time. Whether it's xbox or PC with mods I love it and have replayed it countless times for 20 years and hopefully another 20 years.
btw- when your fatigue is low, its hard to land hits. sure, it looks silly to swing and miss an enemy over and over again with the blade physically passing through them, but the idea role-playing wise is that ur character is actually so winded and out of energy that he's blindly and slowly lugging his blade in the general direction of enemies, and they easily evade it.
Personally I think Oblivion is the most fun. I've been replaying it on PS3 (yes)
Having a blast.
Also replaying it (70 hours in) and I’m bored already. Started to decline in enjoyment after around 30 hours, same as Skyrim. Extremely repetitive and boring
@@mikeyb0121 Bro I've never finished an elder scrolls game. Despite having thousand hours between them. Always get bored.
Interesting; bc I feel Oblivion is kind of the worst to me personally.
Its probably bc Oblivion feels like a "bastard child" to me; where its stuck amidst the transition from old school "numbers game" RPG Morrowind to the more moment-to-moment focused and streamlined action-RPG Skyrim; while also having the blandest setting as well.
And the progression systems for the character as well as the scaling systems for enemies are worse than its successors and predecessors too..
Idk, its not at all a bad game or anything like that; it just felt like it fell victim to the transformation from one game design doctrine to another.
Have you heard of the High Elves?
This game has always been the favorite of mine. Its cool to see people like you and others discover this game. I played this for 100s of hours on the Xbox. The Game of the Year edition is my favorite piece of media ever made. Morrowind is a perfect mix of janky Rpg goodness. Really cool that you dig it.
Only reason I don’t play morrowind is because I have no clue what to do or where to go
The journal is your friend
You have to actually pay attention to what people say and follow the journal. It doesn't hold your hand like modern games. Read the dialogue closely, it won't necessarily tell you when you've started a quest, it's all just in your notebook
That’s kind of the point. You’re on your own…
I think you did a great job, you got into the swing of combat fast, despite never having any fatigue. Interested how long it took you to find the puzzle box. Don't worry-despite being very low level, most people get wrecked by the battlemage on the bridge first time.
I Play Morriwind since release 2002, TIP- I recommend learning teleportation spell on start, to fast traveling, in game, its very useful, in early stage of story, for me its still the best rpg and TES part ever. 😉
This was my first ES and Bethesda. The insane potions you could make and levitate over the entire map was crazy. There was some other OP potions you could make.
There was some kind of exponential effect in mixing potions. Can’t recall.
The Tribunal DLC added "enhance attribute" effects, so you can make a potion to boost your intelligence to make a better intelligence-boosting potion. It's pretty hilarious that Bethesda left it in, even considering how broken the base game already is.
I remember getting the boots of blindly speed useless to begin with but as your wisdom gets better your sight becomes better giving you excellent speed great rpg.. oh and finding the daedric crescent after defending a crazy hard boss great game
Morrowind might be the most immersive RPG game ever made
Doubt.
One aspect that always made me love Morrowind the most of all the TES games is just how unusual a lot of the settings are. Telvanni towers without staircases, the intriguing flora, giant mushrooms, a cultural aspect that's vastly different from the very typical european setting of Skyrim & Oblivion which are not quite as unique. Dwemer ruins, stuff like all the weird bug like creatures, floating jellyfish Netch, and such. Unique, plus the variability of the regions.
Refined the combat is crazy😂
I’m inspired to start playing the save I started during my pre-Starfield hype
Had a xbox that i borrowed from my friend and i played it and instantly fell in love it was like i was in a different world
Played this back in early 2000s. My character was unstoppable when I finished. Could fly around unlimited, super fast speed, all kinds of stuff. I actually liked getting directions instead of a quest marker. Kinda made it immersive. The thing that gripped me was the world. It was like an alien planet. Then Oblivion came and was like a generic fantasy land.
Morrowind is a magical experience to this day if you just let it take a little time. It's very slow to start but before you know it your build is coming together and you are fully immersed in one of the most unique gaming worlds of all time
i still have my notebook that i kept track of all quests in without looking at the journal unless i needed to write down a new quest
I love Morrowind it was my first elder scrolls game and I found it at blockbuster for $10 I had no idea what I was getting into. I replay it every year or two 😊
my first bethesda game was also oblivion but man, morrowind is such a great game, one of my favorites
I really hope you make a follow up to this vid, I really enjoyed it
And then they tell you you have to play daggerfall
If bethesda was smart they would have remade this game years ago
On the other hand, they could have easily ruined it.
Yeah, actually relieved they just left it alone. Modders have elevated it to impressive heights
Todd feels that it should be left alone. I'm inclined to agree. It's got issues but mods can fix them, and they're not the issues you think they are.
@@colbyboucher6391 Which is good in a way because I have serious doubt they'd do it properly. When Morrowind was being developed, they were on a brink of bankruptcy and were pretty much all in on that game. They wanted to prove themselves and had nothing to lose mentality so they were ready to go ambitious, with some quirky design choices and unique with the lore and art design. It was released in arguably the most innovative gaming era when game dev culture was different.
Nowadays they are a high ranking team behind mega corporation trying to please most amount of casual audience, lacking ambition. Not to mention that pretty much all veteran designers and loremasters left over the years. When they're so big they can't take big risks or deviate from norm too much, and they also get that "we'll figure it out, we'll employ BGS magic" mentality. It's less about couple dozen passionate devs trying to make art and more about big corporate structure trying to please CEOs.
15:00 These kinds of moments, when you feel a real danger and are thrilled to have overcome the threat. I didn't feel that in Skyrim even once.
would watch a series if you kept playing. really fun to watch a person experience it for the first time, and actually get it (instead of getting annoyed at the obscurity and lack of modern gameplay convenience features) & have fun at it!
I remember 10 hours into this discovering it was open world and being blown away. I thought I was going to have to pick pocket enough people in the first town to pay to ride to the next biggest city. I’ve been a Elder Scrolls and Fallout fan since
The encoded message is a simple cipher, they probably just ran the original text through an encoding software to shift the letters based on the cipher they created for it. Not difficult, even at the time.
EDIT: I should note that you do get the decoded version later in the game and get to read what it says.
I'll need more Morrowind.
Ooooh first try granius kill; nice! He is basically the first "boss" for many new players, you did well :)
Yeah, he's kind of a build check. Either your character is useful or you made a bit of a dud.
lots of quirks with this one! a few mods on pc to get the graphics up and it actually is pretty great to play
i also started with oblivion, and that ones still my favorite. but morrowind is cool for the unique world and more mythical setting, as opposed to a more straight fantasy/fairy tale of oblivion
When u are rich enough, you can buy all the slaves for sale and they will follow you around. If you are a good summoner, you can have up to 1 of each summon type following you around at the same time, in future games u are limited to only 1 at a time... Also the lore seemed a lot more interesting back then.
Classic, saying hello to saint Jiub at the start.
3:55 yeah, and the painstaking trouble being playing the main quest so the guy gives you translated version of the package
This game needs a remake with voice acting and fast travel
They need to go back to what made this game so strong and unique with the next elder scrolls. I wanna be able to jump over buildings. I want heaps of guilds instead of just the main boring ones. I want different strains of vampirism that give you different strengths and weaknesses AND access to unique vamp guilds as a result (or getting access to none of them because you contracted lame normal vampirism). I want a world that doesn't just look like a place on earth I can catch a flight to. I wanna sell shit to a talking mudcrab or that lil goblin guy. I want a game with personality. I have little faith we will get it but A MAN CAN DREAM
This was my first Elder Scrolls. I still love it.
I use to play this at my grandparents house, never got very far. Crazy how that was Almost 20 yrs ago
Fun fact: Todd Howard was one of the minds behind Morrowind and the guy who called out for some of the changes that turned the Elder Scrolls in what it is now
The big question is..
Wtf happened to him?
“One of the minds”
He had betters to reign him in.
@@SaraphDarklaw Not really, some of the changes like making the map smaller and handmade instead of the big nothing sandwhich the Daggerfall map was came from him, I get disliking him now, but Todd used to be really competent
He got tricked by Emil Succhiapalle making him believe he would be better at story writing and world building than the OGs.
Welll it was more like he was the "straight man" who pushed for a smaller world and more hand-crafted story VS what Daggerfall was doing. He also actually reigned ln the insanity of the Redguard Rewrite era lore somewhat. Probably vital to Morrowind's success (as much as I wish they just went full First Pocket-Guide) but now he doesn't have the crazy ideas guys to balance him out.
@@colbyboucher6391 It's kinda poetic in a certain way
Greatest rpg ever made! Birthed of the most beautiful of mundus’ earthbones 🔥🔥🤘🤘
So excited for Skywind to revive this incredibly unforgettable experience
Calling Oblivion and Skyrim's combat "refined" over Morrowind is a bit of a misnomer.
Morrowind's combat has a lot of depth, more than anyone new to the game realizes. It becomes simple once you understand it.
Fatigue + weapon skill and type being used + agility + strength + luck = hit chance - in short, if you suck at a weapon, use the wrong kind or don't level the appropriate skills (it tells you which ones govern which attributes if you actually read) then you will have a bad time with Morrowind's combat.
Morrowind's combat is much deeper than "spam click, do more damage after killing enough stuff" like Skyrim and Oblivion. In Morrowind, your choices of equipment, attributes and skills actually affect your gameplay.
I actually prefer Morrowind's combat system. The only issues I have with Morrowind's combat system are the janky animations and the lack of any visual indicator that you've missed because your attributes/skills/equipment suck or the enemy dodged it because you aren't high enough level to hit them yet. If the game showed a miss animation or a dodge animation, the game would appear to be less jank but because there's no visual indicator of these things, people that are new the game hate the combat system. There's a reason Morrowind veterans absolutely love it and new players hate it. It takes a while to learn how to be GOOD at Morrowind's combat because it's actually challenging.
Don't get me wrong, I love Skyrim and Oblivion, but Morrowind is more like a classical RPG that requires actual class building rather than the "jack of all trades" system Oblivion and Skyrim have. There's a TON of depth to the Morrowind combat system and it really loses a lot of it's draw when you use mods to change it or if you could never fail to hit things.
Morrowind is such a great game and I’m thankful it’s backwards compatible. Definitely tricky for newcomers to get into though from archaic design hassles.
Hey jayvee the next Bethesda game you should try is the Evil within 1&2 next there both really good games 👍
Don't know if YAHLL knows but you can get morrowind on your Android phone and as PLUS PLUS you can play it with mods. It's almost perfect
In some ways we've lost the adventure and freedom of exploration in videogames... Don't get me wrong, additional directions and UI is great for casual fun and standard objectives but there's just something about having to actually pay attention to dialogue and clues to travers the world that really excites me!
the scrib are basicly Peaceful and can Paralyze you with their Nibles.
their basicly Tiny Puppies.
I just bought morrowind, can’t wait to play!
Arx fatalis next
I can't believe you never played the masterpiece known as Morrowind
Best lore in a game. It goes REAL deep and gets really weird.
My brother in Azura, you did good for a first timer.
I really like the UI in the xbox version
*remarks on Jiub's voice*
*laughs at guards walk cycle*
*laughs at imperial guards face*
*laughs at Socucius's voice*
Your tutorial is officially complete, welcome to Morrowind 🤣
Play more morrowind! I love this game! The combat will start to feel a little better and you'll miss less as you level up your long blade skill, you got to 50 which is pretty good. just gotta keep an eye on your fatigue!
Morrowind without question has the best sound track.
jumping works pretty much the same way it does in Oblivion, the more you jump the more you level up the skill.
>finding the Dwemer Puzzle Box without a guide
Yeah, right.
you need to try Daggerfall Unity with enhanced graphics + night sky its 100% a vibe
MOURNHOLD! CITY OF LIGHT! CITY OF MAGIC!
Please do a full playthru
Bacola Closcius sounds like my scientific name because I was raised by a family of Bakkila’s, but I’m not, by blood, a Bakkila.
I really find it surprising that you'd say the combat is refined in the newer Elder Scrolls, when IMO it feels worse than ever before in those games. It's two completely different mindsets between the combat playstyles, in the older ones it's closer to pure RPG where things like skills matter, while in the latter its action focused where player skill trumps character skill, at the expense of realism with your sword or bow easily being able to penetrate even plate armor with every swing from even level 1.
Then again, it's strange that the games' main focus is combat and the combat sucks in every game.
Combat works best when a game chooses either real time or traditional turn based rpg combat when they try to combined the to it just doesn’t feel right I think Kotor has a similar problem just less severe
After playing this, Outward would be the perfect game to try.
HE KILLED THE SCRIB
GETTEM
Also it's not a language that needs to be translated, it's an cyphered document you're not supposed to read
Best way to train jumping is on staircases.
For anyone thinking about playing Morrowind in 2024 for the first time; install a graphics overhaul mod and it will become the most beautiful world you’ve ever explored
Morrowind destroyed my five year old mind. It was too reading and actual gameplay for me too comprehend
And I STILL can’t believe it’s not butter!
