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.

No - you can level up by using magic, buying and selling etc - hell, if I made acrobatics a major/minor skill, I'd be level 100 by now! It does have a large emphasis on combat, as it's silly not to have a strong weapon skill - butyou could play the game without levelling up solely through combat.

Pretty sure you have to sleep. I think it takes that idea form AD&D as it does some others.
As it is the 'kill to level up' experience system renders the game as more of a glorified hack 'n slasher.
Mabye Oblivion'll have a re-vamped (no pun intended) experience system. I don't necessarily wantto play a peaceful monk (who obviously can still kick ass if attacked) but it'd be nice to know the option was there.
And I think you can just rest to level up.
Probably only done 2 hours of actual game as i keep forgetin to save afore i steal stuff then restart instead of going to jail! Rich but not very powerful! Although i've not slept a lot. Does it matter if you sleep or just rest as there are two options?
Went for an stealthy elfy with a bow. Although thinking i'm gonna regret it, for some reason i can hardly hit anything (with bow or knife) and don't know what i'm doing wrong? Any tips? Still on level 1 too after 4ish hours, and judging by the size of the map there be many more hours left in it!
Damn you Morrowind!!! :D

If anoyone wants to improve their Personality by 30 pts and be liked by all, then go to a tower in Dagonfel (sp) and claim the Masque of Clavicus Vile. Not as easy as it seems if you're as weak as a sewer rat, mind.
To the north of Caldera a woman asks you to escort her and she'll give you the blinding boots of speed. Personally I just bumped her off for 'em.
