    I have been wanting too play it but even Oblibion (unmodded) was too dated when I went to play. Excited for the chance now. Now, I don’t mind things that are dated within reason (CRPGs come to mind since they are point and click or things like DA1 or Witcher 2)… Where do you suggest I go if I want a fairly modern experience for Morrowind and I am not afraid of Frankensteining mods together?

      I would suggest OpenMW and exploring these mod lists.

      Keep in mind combat in Morrowind is closer to something like KOTOR or DND - swinging your weapon at an enemy is running a “to hit” roll which is massively affected by your fatigue. Most people who struggle to get into Morrowind are put off by either 1) the amount of reading needed or 2) the combat. Just view swinging your weapon as rolling a d20 to see if your hit connects or not, keep your fatigue bar full, and try to only use attack skills you have at least 40+ in (cheesing training is easy if you have problems with this.)
