The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
So, I decided after looking at this thread, it needed editing.
Morrowind discussion, discuss about Morrowind.
Pretty straight forward really.
Tell us your Morrowind storys, cool stuff you've done ect.
I've joined the Thieve's Guild and completed the first two missions, I've also joined the Great House Hlaau.
Want to hear it?
1) Get yourself some alchemy equipment. Nick a pestle & mortar from somewhere, that will do.
2) Go To Sadrith Mora. Below the mages guild is an imperial shrine. The guy in the room at the rear sells various herbs
3) There are some of these herbs which are very cheap, and have 'fortify intelligence' as one of their features - I forget which ones, you'll have to check for yourself. Buy as many of these as you can afford.
4) Make as many fortify intelligence potions as you can, then drink most of them, and sell the rest back to recover your cash.
5) Buy more ingredients. Repeat from step 3.
6) You'll notice your intelligence and the power of your potiions will increase exponentially. In ten minutes, you'll have about 100,000 intelligence, and your potions will be worth thousands and last for days.
7) Now make some seriously over-powered potions. How about a five million point lightening shield which will last for a month of game time? A restore health or magicka potion which will do the same? You can get the ingredients for most of these in either the imperial shrine or the mages guild above.
et viola, you're immortal.

I do, they're so jucking annoying and gay.
Soultrap on target for duration of 1
Fortify Strength 100% on self.
Make sure you aim spell at the ground, then cast.
Now you will have 100 Strength and the effect will not ware off. Keep casting it for 200, 300, 400.........
Also change the Fortify strength to whatever you choose, but be careful with chameleon, if you have everlasting 100% chameleon you will not be able to speak to a NPC again!

Plus i've used master trainers to get just about all my skills up to 100.
I have a constant supply of cash (Summon Golden Saint, kill, sell loot to talking mudcrab)
I think my current stockpile of cash is at least 200k.
A nice hlaalu stronghold, outfitted with the highest quality items. My desk has a full set of grandmaster armor hammers and alchemy set.

Firstly Morrowind is an RPG, a game based on stats. RPG's are not every gamers cup of tea, they require a lot of thought and time. As far as RPG's go, Morrowind is probably the best(IMO) around. Morrowind is very open ended and to the more simple gamers it may be quite a challenge to play a game that requires map reading!
Some folks on this forum have said it takes at least 30 hours to enjoy the game, I can confirm that this is entirely untrue, I enjoyed it right from the start, although at the lower levels the morrowind world can be quite daunting. For non-rpg players who want a quick bash, they may give up as they find the fairly slow gameplay and daunting game world a bit too much.
Methinks if you had given morrowind a better chance, and played on and actually learnt how to play the game you would enjoy it!
Or if you really are against RPG's, then simply morrowind isnt a game you would love.
My last character was something like Level 80 and was a master of all the magic skills and was decked from head-to-toe in self-enchanted "Constant Effect" gear.... basically he was invincible.
The best bit of the game for me was the Morag Tong missions - the assassins. I took my user name on here from the book outlining their philosophy "The Black Glove".
I'm going to start a new game soon, but I've played it so much [hundreds of hours] that I need a little break :)
