  • Do try Morrowind, it’s great. You need to know just a few things though, and it will be way more likely to click for you:

    • Make your own class and just choose one weapon type. A lot of the premade classes waste major/minor skills on dumb stuff.
    • Don’t try to use any other type of weapon. You won’t hit. Wait until like level 20 to start trying other weapons.
    • Your green Fatigue bar needs to be full to not fuck up everything you do- including magic and even bartering/speechcraft. Everything. Full fatigue bar.
    • Make Alchemy a minor skill no matter what. Buy/steal/find Marshmerrow and Saltrice. Bind those to your quick keys on the number row. I use 3 and 4. Tap the key to munch on the herbs. Sometimes it’ll take a couple tries to get a lasting effect. Viola. You now have practically free HEALTH and FATIGUE potions that take up barely any weight and actually help a lot early to mid game. Way less waiting for that green bar to fill up.

    Other than that, have at it

    Oh and kill all slaveowners




  • yes that’s a very good birthsign especially because it raises the floor on your hit chance even with no fatigue left.

    But I was just doing a Morrowind run in the last couple weeks, and I never had an issue, just made Long Blade a major skill, kept my fatigue up, and smacked people down. It also helps to mostly do power attacks - the chance to hit really seems higher IMO.

    I was born under the Charioteer which is also amazing (What? Morrowind? Slow? What ever do you mean?)

    And you’re not playing Morrowind right unless you stack up money until you hit 100k and start buying piles of Grand Soul Gems, Summon Golden Saint scrolls and Soul Trap scrolls and then constant-effect enchanting every single article of clothing, either by paying an enchanter who also buys soul gems and getting your money back each time, or by pureeing 400 ash yams and 400 netch leather until you have a galaxy brain and doing it yourself. You can make fatigue just stop ever going away






  • Absolutely. There are certain types of names that should honestly just be illegal, and are in some countries. For me, as the level of weirdness goes up, it actually becomes ok and then not OK again, a couple times

    From least to most unconventional:

    • Common names ✅
    • Uncommon names ✅
    • War criminal names ❌
    • Misspelled common names like “Gianathunn” ✅ fine but why, why??
    • Profanity or any kind of plain-language degrading like “fuckass” or “dumpsterwater”❌
    • Common names where you arbitrarily assign letters and claim they represent different sounds "Oh it’s pronounced Johnathan, spelled like ‘Pppppppp’❌
    • Common words that don’t even sound like a name, like naming your kid fuckin "Best One or “And The” or some shit, so every time someone says their name everyone else thinks they had a stroke❌
    • Completely unique invented names that don’t sound like any word ✅ Just typin out random letters like “Bandalagika” or “Diunchip” doesn’t bother me at all because you assume it has to be a name
    • Literally unpronounceable names ❌ Fuck you
