Man this game is huge, I've been playing for 40+ hours, and I've only discovered about 1/5th of the map (and that's being generous).

No kidding, one of the reviews I read said something like "Morrowind is so huge that finishing or even starting the main quest isn't even really necessary to still enjoy the game. Some gamers might decide to just play around in the game for over 100 hours without even starting the main quest."

I agree that playing the main quest isn't really needed to enjoy the game, but it would sure be a waste not to finish it IMO. I just killed my first Ash Vampire the other day, f'rinstance, and the experience was better even than becoming Arch-mage or Archmagister.

Telvanni part of the island is the best. These 1000 year old sorcerers are wicked

What is the benefit of enchanting skill, does enchantments become cheaper or? And is there anyone in Morrowind who has more money than Creeper, and buys pearls/ etc... just interested in more money that's all I can always spend some to buy their good will .

Fyr's the best, just don't try attacking him--he's got on a full set of Daedric armor. It's worse than taking on an Ash Vampire.

It's only used for enchanting your own stuff or recharging your stuff with soul gems. The higher the skill, the higher the probability of success. Given the relative scarcity of decent soul gems I didn't practice this one much (it was a Misc. skill anyway), but if you're looking to enchant your own stuff then I'd recommend that you pick up Azura's Star, which is a reusable Grand Soul Gem.

I just beat the game, but I'm slightly disappointed--it appears that there is only one possible ending (as opposed to the dozen or so possible endings to Daggerfall). Does anybody know of a way to get a different ending than the "standard ending" (I won't describe it so as not to spoil it for anybody)?

All in all I loved the game, and intend to keep playing it (currently I'm an Arch-Mage in the Mage's Guild and Archmagister in House Telvanni, but the rest of my faction ratings are relatively low so I've still got plenty of quests to perform). I was just hoping for more of an ending.

You can belong to the house Telvanni and the mages guild? I thought they were at war with each other.

Yeah, they don't like each other, but most of the quests done by the two sides didn't seem to conflict with one another; for instance, I wasn't asked to kill anybody important in House Telvanni (except as part of House Telvanni quests, since it's a pretty brutal house), nor was I asked to kill anybody important in the Mage's Guild quests.

If you're ranked Wizard or higher in the Mage's Guild, then it seemed like the only way to get a decent faction from the Telvanni was to join them. At one point I was a Master Wizard in the Mage's Guild with a high Personality (maxed out, in fact) and Speechcraft (also maxed out), and every faction had at least a 90 reaction to me except for Telvanni, which had a 35 (!) reaction to me. They hated me! If I hadn't had such a high personality/speechcraft, then they might have killed me on sight. They had no problem with me joining, though, (since I was such a badass wizard), and as soon as I joined them my Telvanni reaction jumped to a cool 100. I was already so advanced in the Mage's Guild (especially from my completion of the extremely difficult Disappearance of the Dwarves quest from Trebonius) that advancement in Telvanni didn't dent my Mage's Guild reaction of 100.

If I hadn't joined Telvanni, then I'd probably have had to kill all of the Telvanni counsellors in order to get them to name me Hortator. As it was, I reached Archmagister before starting on the Hortator quest, so my selection as Hortator was already a done deal.

Try playing again and finish the game as a vampire (it's VERY tough, but i heard it is possible) ... that should offer a whole different play-experience.

Whoaaaaa, anyway don't tell us

except - more endings are possible - nice - I wander what I will be for the next characheter ---- ooo I am not even half way trough in this one.

I guess I could do a faction/ or guild each start until you get tired of the game

Yikes! I'm just a Level 10 Imperial Crusader. Such an inferiority complex . Well, I mean, I've played about 50 hours, and now just getting into the main quest. Just got the info that I'm the Nerevarine, and I have to kill the Sixth House cult on the sea, but before I do that, I decided I want to go see Suran. I love this game .

If I play it again, I'll pick a Dark Elf... Imperials are very bland.

I'm playing as an Argonian scout, I really like Argonians, swimming is so easy with them.

I'm at level 27, have maxed out strength, and maxed out the long sword skill. I don't really have any problems killing anything, but an ancient wizard skeleton sure gave me a hard time when my willpower was drained to zero.

[Eroberer]

Argonians can't wear boots though, right?

[FrustratedPoet]

nor can Khajits
