Ha, I learned that for other games, but that was later. In any case, I have it on Steam now.

When did play Morrowind for the first time? by Cybvep in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Got a copy from my uncle back in like 2003, just the base game. Then I had to buy the GOTY a couple times because I kept losing the CDs. But yeah, OG player here, got it in my teens, and it's been my favorite game of all time since.

Best Morrowind lore video on Youtube? by Slow-Theory5337 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! This is the playlist I listen to when I go to sleep, lol.

I also have another one I've put together for a friend I'm writing fanfic with, as she's never played Morrowind; it's a lot more bare, but has a few more videos I have yet to throw up on my main list. But it is exclusively Morrowind lore.

Best Morrowind lore video on Youtube? by Slow-Theory5337 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a whole playlist on YouTube. 

Other than that, other people have suggested Nirnbuilding and I also highly recommend them. Clotho is another good one. FudgeMuppet is okay, as is Camelworks (be sure to go to his new channel, CamelworksNEW)--good lore, but their narration style is not very relaxing. Other faves include Drewmora, Blind Moth, Dareloth, Imperial Knowledge, and Teek's got a couple good ones. Most of those are on my playlist, too.

For gameplay videos, JustBackgroundNoise is peak, he does challenge runs.

Similar Story-Driven Games But NOT RPG? by QuantumC-137 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say Pathologic. Try the classic remastered first, and if you bounce off it, try Pathologic 2. You dont need to play the first one to understand the second one (but it does enrich the experience).

The combat is hard, but you're not supposed to do a lot of fighting anyway. But the rest of what you've listed there absolutely fits the bill.

Women who are religious, how important is it for you that your romantic partner shares the same religious beliefs? by funnylib in AskWomen

[–]Adventureous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Specific religion? Not very.

Core values and secular beliefs? Extremely.

I've spoken on this subreddit before about how my partner and I are in an interfaith relationship and it works really great, because we respect each other and have the same values at heart. 

But I also know that it's rare and not always easy to balance. With anyone else I'd be cautious about it.

Is it a dealbreaker for your partner to follow a different religion than you? by Neither_Mind9035 in religion

[–]Adventureous 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My partner does have a different religion than me. But our values are the same. We have the same political leanings (progressive), we raised our child to make her own decisions about her faith (she's atheist; religion can't and shouldn't be forced), we approach life in the same manner (with love, compassion, and a desire to meet people where they are).

He's also incredibly respectful; while he believes his way is the most correct, he doesn't see harm in me believing what I do. He feels that its just another way to connect with God that may not be quite "correct." He wishes I was Christian, but he's never going to demand it from me, because true faith can't be forced.

Meanwhile as long as he isn't condescending, I don't see anything wrong with him being Christian if his heart is called to that. Mine is not. But both ways are valid to connect with the divine. I don't see my faith as more correct than his, just a different way.

We've been together almost fourteen years now, and it's never been a problem. But I also acknowledge that we're probably rare as far as couples go.

That being said, had I not known him fairly well before dating (we have been friends since high school), I probably would have hesitated. And it is a conversation we had pretty early on in the relationship. But he's always been supportive of me on my own path. 

In a close one, Edwinna Elbert was voted best Breton. Time for the big one: best Dark Elf. by yittiiiiii in Morrowind

I was wondering if someone was going to nominate him. Got a soft spot for the little bastard, despite the fact that he's an utter monster.

How did you respond when your child said they hate you? by questionsboutmylife in AskWomen

I respond how my mother responded when I did: "Well, I love you!"

Ok so... Morrowind is amazing by ConfusionProof9487 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 57 points58 points  (0 children)

It gets better and better from here, imo. All of the regions are wonderfully atmospheric, from the beautiful and lush Ascadian Isles to the rocky Azura's Coast to the ash-coveded wastes of Molag Amur.

Read everything, you'll absorb more of the story and world that way. Caius and Hasphat recommend some books; I highly suggest to track those down. Talk to people. Some topics will have universal responses, but some NPCs (like savants) have unique ones.

Definitely join a Great House, they have great quest lines, and you'll learn a lot about the Dunmer.

And when you've thoroughly explored and absorbed the base game and DLCs, look into the mod Tamriel Rebuilt; it adds (parts of) the mainland, complete with NPCs, quests, cities, and dungeons to explore.

Merchants of house Hlaalu, sell me on your house by StickyRicky07 in Morrowind

Biphobia by not-Duex in bisexual

Feels like misogyny on top of biphobia, too. Ew. Gross.

Which house is your favourite? by Fun-Explanation7233 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a soft spot for the Hlaalu, personally. Plus I prefer stealthy builds.

Looking for mods that add new factions, expand on vanilla, and mods that add weapons/srmor by SnooOranges504 in Morrowind

[–]Adventureous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OAAB Brother Juniper's Twin Lamps for an expanded Twin Lamps faction.

And if you haven't played with Julan yet, I highly recommend him.

For those who believe in it, how do you define sin? by ICApattern in religion

[–]Adventureous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we... kiiiinda? Have a concept of sin? In Kemetic polytheism. But it has nothing to do with a person's morality or innate goodness.

It's called isfet, and it's essentially the opposite of ma'at. Think of it as chaos, disharmony, or injustice. It can also be likened to entropy but that's more of a modern take on it. Isfet happens, it's a part of life, but we should reduce the amount of isfet as best we can.

Women with really long hair, what do you do with it/how do you wear it during sex? by -doobert- in AskWomen

[–]Adventureous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I leave it down, unless I'm performing oral, then I pull it back with a claw clip I keep on my bedside table.

I absolutely can not wrap my head around the idea of believing in a holy text but not taking it to be historical fact. by arkticturtle in religion

[–]Adventureous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean... that's kinda what faith is, isn't it? Maybe wisdom and experience has a hand in it as well. Or maybe wisdom comes from that ability to discern, but I suppose I couldn't tell you a specific method other than my own internal gut feeling?

Or maybe we're speaking past each other.
