I have a headache!

Post by Enchantra »

Sorry if anyone has posted this before but...

This game is endless!! I have sore eyeballs from staring at my computer screen for way too long. Just when I think I am crossing off some of my quests, I run into someone else with a new one for me.

Talk about overwhelming. I could play this game for years and still find new quests. It is great value for money. Most games I can get through quite quickly for the amount I play them. But I fear I will be playing this one for a long time.

Did anyone have any strategies for completing them or do you just take them as they come. I am trying to do them via area so I am visiting two places within the one city or area. But I am finding they are really piling up and I am forgetting the main quest.

Endless is good. I have 200+ mods installed. At least 30 of these are major quest mods that I only add (and remove) as needed, given the sheer amount of RAM they consume. (A few also interefere with one another.) I'm not interested in the game ending, at this point. I want it to continue, because it's ceased to become a goal, and instead, become an experience I enjoy.

@ Enchantra...it can be overwhelming, :)
The first couple of times I tried to do everything and soon realized that it would drive me crazy keeping up with all the quests available,
so I've somewhat limit myself, current character is only in the Morag Tong and of course the main quest/Blades and is freeing slaves per the Twin Lamps, and the occasional small sidequest..although I still get sidetracked from time to time...ooohh there's a cave/tomb...:laugh:
Enjoy :)

Totally agree it is a huge game and if you are playing it on PC then you will find that you get cramp in your left shoulder fom using the Q and W keys to move your character and [yes, as was pointed out to me the Ctrl key for 'sneak'. Use that often it is a good attribute]. So, a course in Pilates and the occasional run to the Chiropractor will help in your overall enjoyment of Morrowind. This is only a 'tack-on' as I believe your main queries have been anwered. Persevere. And hopefully have fun. Avane.

You CAN forget about the main quest, should you so desire. I do that a lot :) .
You can replay Morrowind many times, especially if you play with mods, like Fable says.
To make all those quests a bit less overwhelming maybe you could only accept quests that suit (the abilities of) your character?

I'm getting pains in my right arm from the mouse work haha. Yeah I am going to slow them down a bit I need to focus on getting my character stronger. Almost every NPC I run into has a quest! I am so nice I just do them haha. I can't kill people either so I usually choose the bribe option. I need to get some guts and say no!
