The Official Morrowind Thread

Spent all of my play time making the Amulet of the Scrouge, which basically summons 6 uber rats to fight people you don't like. My first attempt was really ass backwards so I had to start from scratch, but I ran into a major problem. Basically, the scripting language only does what they needed it to do and the only way to find this out is by trial and error.

For instance, the function:

"_amm_scourge_rat"->Disable should work, but doesn't. It works for NPCs, objects, and other random stuff, but not for creatures. Why? Because they never needed it to so they didn't bother coding it. -_-

I've thought of a workaround, but it's a pain in the ass and it's messy besides. I'd rather have some nice neat coding, but Morrowind seems to perfer the sloppy approach.

Does anyone else have the wierd complex of having to REALLY be in the mood to play Morrowind? I'm usually only really into it if I have been thinking about it before hand or talking about it with friends.

okay. i just got the xbox rev and i really want to like this game. the music is great btw. anyway i joined the fighters guild and went to the ladys house to kill the rats. i have some chitin armor and a dagger and my character refuses to hit the fucking rat. i get bit like 6 times in 10 seconds and im dead. i swing the dagger like a madman or charge it up and it doesnt matter i still regester NO HITS and im looking right at the stupid fucker.....this makes me sad.

Welcome to Morrowind's amazing(har har)gameplay DD. Oh, I'm just bumping this thread to try and keep it going for no good reason.

Sigh, I quit this game about 3 quests into the Blades Quests. It's quite boring and repetetive. After getting the post possible armor and weapons, and then started the Blades Quests, you really have nothing left to do except toy with magic and do more quests, which are usually pretty easy and most likely contain walks across the largest god damn world.

Did you find the "post" possible armor and weapons on your own, or did you run over to gamefaqs and get the information? Cause the "post" weapons and armor are pretty difficult to find on your own. So how come it's the game's fault that you decided to go get the information necessary to find the "post" equipment in the game and made the game incredibly easy? You can sap the fun out of just about every game in existence if you read walkthroughs and faqs before playing.

More advice for Dyne (although Gongos is 100% correct): if you're not playing a fighter-type character, don't do fighter's guild quests until you're more powerful.

I agree that some of the other weapons are more fun to find, but I still think the Daedric Dai-Katana enchanted with absorb health 54 points on strike (with a Golden Saint/Ascended Sleeper soul, or Vivec's soul is you really want to powergame) is easily the best weapon in the game.
