Cannot Find Server posted:i never cared much about the story or even the quests, since morrowind's strengths are in getting lost in the wilderness and exploring caves and poo poo. The same is true of skyrim but the existence of fast travel kind of railroads you into doing as little exploring as possible. It's a lot more fun to replay imo if you use an alternate start mod and disable fast travel because there's a lot of loving wilderness and caves and there's some really goofy poo poo off the beaten path and in the random encounters.

Cannot Find Server posted:i already don't use any fast travel aside from the caravans and don't need mods for it because self control is a thing. the only real downside is how enemies have so much drat health, so walking from point a to point be is always extended by several minutes because i ran into a bear that took 30 hits to kill. the combat in skyrim is so fuckin annoying and unfun, worse than morrowind. well an alternate start mod will start you somewhere else in the world with assets/faction standings appropriate to some other situation and most importantly postpones the main questline until you want to start it, which is cool because then you can actually buy a horse and it won't constantly get ganked by dragons. The one I used last lets you choose between a few backgrounds like owning property in a hold or having been robbed and left for dead in the middle of nowhere and then you can just play it by ear wherever you wind up. I only used a mod to disable fast travel because that mod was Frostfall which adds another dimension to the exploration anyway. I'd also recommend Realistic Needs and Diseases which meshes well with Frostfall. It's pretty dumb to be anti-mod because there are some great mods for things like racials and perks/skills and spells which are better thought out than what shipped with the game and add a lot of depth that's missing otherwise. Also I'm pretty sure the first mod I ever got for a game was the one that made the cliff racers passive so i know my poo poo poverty goat fucked around with this message at 09:12 on Feb 10, 2014 |

I remember one game after I'd maxed out all my primary stats as a sneaky bastard I joined whatever vampire clan gave the best bonuses to acrobatics and whatnot, since vampirisim could raise those stats past 100. I also found am amulet on some Tribunal quest NPC with enough health regen on it to go out in the daylight. That was the playthrough where I tried to kill everyone in the game; with the ridiculous athletics/acrobatics I remember jumping on and off of the tall 2-3 story roofs in Caldera as I kited the guards around picking off loners. I killed everyone on the west coast, but burned out when I got to vivec because I mean that poo poo's just unreasonable. Too many doors

Blue Raider posted:just go play morrowind again. vanilla realtalk Morrowind Overhaul is treating me pretty well so far, it bundles together sounds/textures wiith all of hte bugfixes and patches and the graphics updates and poo poo and installs them correctly in the right order and sets up the load order and poo poo so you can just start playing vanilla+ without crashing or hurting your eyes or having to read a guide or do poo poo manually. Unless you're actually playing on an antique computer this probably the most painfree way to do it

SunAndSpring posted:If you have the patience to manually install every mod, Knots's guide will give you better results. MO also has the benefit of being 1 torrent that will download really fast without having to download anything individually from nexus Cannot Find Server posted:Well it took me reconfiguring overhaul like 10 times to finally get settings that both looked good and played at a respectable FPS, so I think this probably depends on your PC. If you have a fuckoff gamer rig it'll serve you fine, whereas in my case it would have taken far less time to just do it myself. MO holds your dick through all of the performance tuning. Having previously been through the reconfiguring-10-times procedure I don't think I'd never not just go with MO at this point. poverty goat fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Feb 14, 2014 |

long blades are best because once you have sneak and long blades maxed out and a big daedric sword you'll just one shot poo poo all day long when you break stealth and also when you are too lazy to stealth with the default swing that doesnt require you to love to set it up just trained long blades all the way up in one stop at the trainer on my monk because punching poo poo to death gets old and also im rich, poo poo is getting silly

Cantorsdust posted:3) If you're not using a multiple mark/recall mod, you can actually do a lot of travelling between regular mark/recall, normal fast travelling with NPCs, and Almsivi and Divine Intervention. I just wanted to point out that lazymode fast travel is the worst thing that ever happened to TES because morrowind has all the tools you need to get around quickly when you need to (like if you need to bail out of a dungeon to fix something/restore your attributes so you can walk again and then return, or to get back to the questgiver quickly) but you actually need to have some situational awareness and think about divine vs almvisi, where your boats/silt striders/propylons are, and whether or not you can shortcut over the mountains with levitation. After Morrowind they just got lazy and it just makes the world feel small as hell (despite oblivion and Skyrim being way bigger than Morrowind) because you can always get anywhere instantly from anywhere with no thought or planning or cost or anything. Even when it's a short trip in morrowind you're going to have to think about the map and where you are and where you want to be and how things link together with the various systems and it makes things feel a lot more big and immersive. size reference

Elman posted:Did anyone ever use the propylons? I played for the longest time without knowing they existed, but even now they seem way too out of the way to be worth it since there are so many easy ways to travel around anyway. I did back in the day but I don't remember where the indeces are and I haven't looked it up. They're not convenient but those things are all over and "out of the way" is exactly where you need some fast travel (even if it's just going to put you within intervention range of your temple of choice)

Really we should just think of Oblivion as a very early alpha of skyrim sort of like FO3 :: new vegas (but somehow worse) copypasting the same layout to every cave is just the icing on the cake in terms of making you not want to explore anything ever poverty goat fucked around with this message at 09:59 on Feb 17, 2014 |

If you're gonna play a khajiit in sjyrim this is a proclick http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/14513/ The best part is that whenever you have the opportunity to refuse to help a dark elf you can call them out for khajiit slavery on morrowind e: also a khajiit was a good choice for MO because that poo poo gets dark with the shader mods and they get racial night vision, also who needs some speed boots when you start with acrobatics 50 poverty goat fucked around with this message at 17:33 on Feb 18, 2014 |

Prism Mirror Lens posted:You mean the code patch to let you press R to just cast, right? I would never, ever play Morrowind without that again. It makes magery so gimped when you have to stand there with your hands out like a total nob for a few seconds before being able to cast a fireball. It's not even ticked by default iirc so seriously if anyone's playing without this, rerun your Code Patch.
