That people think it's a complicated and difficult series when it's extremely casual

Redguards in Elder Scrolls are supposedly meant to be a direct stand in for Berber people.

Maybe that fits when it comes to their warrior culture, but phenotype-wise, they look much more like your average Black American.

Does this woman look like sheโ€™d fit in Oblivion as a Redguard NPC?

"Chance to hit" discussions always end up weird.

Well apparently I'm crazy for pointing out that the game is infinitely better with a no stamina run mod because even at 100 speed walking is absolutely useless and may as well be called "crawling" and running should be called "moving at an acceptable speed".

It's fucking retarded to try and claim it's "supposed to be like that so you can use magic to enchant and fix it". I don't want to wait for hours at the start of every playthrough making enough money and soul gems to enchant clothes so I can literally just "move at a basic normal game speed for longer than 30 seconds".

Also it ruins fighting because enemies don't run out of fatigue when running unlike you. Also I use mods to add a dash and active blocking which costs stamina and if run stamina cost and block stamina cost and dash stamina cost and spell cast stamina cost and archery stamina cost are all on then you end up at 0 stamina in like 3 seconds.

Without run stamina cost and with a few mods Morrowind is probably the best action RPG I've ever played. Without mods its poorly balanced slop that ends with 99% of encounters outside of Bloodmoon expansion being trivially easy by level 15.

Here is the combat mod I use to add dashing and much better enemy AI (MWSE only, no pleb OpenMW users)

Finally, a fellow man or culture. I must say, I've posted what I said above a number of times and it seems clear that only midwits find it to be grating. True pro-RPG players know my post provides invaluable insight.

Imagine hating on someone providing info to make a game great and a game that is entirely built around modding as you see fit. Bethesda didn't provide the creation kit for no reason so I'm constantly confused by people who get to argue the base game is the best. NOT EVEN BETHESDA THOUGHT THAT, that's why they promote mods in every game ever including Morrowind

Is it true that Todd wrote the Empire plot line in Morrowind?

Great when out of combat

Unbalanced for combat since you can just backpedal and dodge all day ON TOP of the dodge dice rolls.

But enjoying the game is most important, so I support your decisions
