Can someone tell me what's the deal with these adventurer

>>379599318
Bethesda isn't exactly known for good AI.

Bump, I'm intersted in this as well.

I think they're outlaws. I think if they dislike you enough, they'll attack you. But their invisible "fight" stat isn't low enough to attack everyone on sight, so if you're charismatic or just an all around cool guy, they won't aggro.

Try playing as an orc with no personality or reputation, then walk up to them.

They tell you if you ask them what theyre doing, I mean you've gotta read and theres no 1,2,3,4 button press option but you should have assumed that getting into an older game.

alright, because i do like the idea of running into hostile npcs in these areas but i am playing an orc, i have 30 personality and they just look at me like "sup yo" and id rather just have a fight, because to me, without knowing what you just told me have been assuming i might need them for some random quest down the road or something

>>379600149
hey, i do talk to them, they just tell you what class they are dude, most of them dont say shit, aside from the mages guild group in one

>>379600253
You can kill almost everyone in the game, it wil tell you if they were really essential. Even then you only need the last dwarf.

>>379600253
It should be fine to kill them. If they have any magical equipment, though, like "something something Sanguine something" then you might want to hold onto it.

their adventurers, outlaws, whatever. Really they there for the player to have fun and kill someone for lootz. I imagine if someone played daggerfall first they would think its cool seeing other adventurers near dungeons because it was only you and you alone in that game.

An Imperial abolitionist Malacath-worshipping Sixth House cultist priest and necromancer was teaching a class on Almalexia, known false god.

”Before the class begins," he demanded, "you must get on your knees and worship Almalexia and accept that she is the most divine being the world has ever known, even greater than Nerevar the Indoril!”

At this moment, a brave, patriotic, pro-Ashland outlander champion who had killed 1500 cliff racers and understood the necessity of war and fully supported all decision made by Azura stood up and held up Dwemer shield.

”How old is this shield, N'Wah?”

The arrogant professor smirked quite Argonianly and smugly replied “4,000 years, you stupid fetcher”

”Wrong. It’s been 2,000 years since the Dragon Break. If it was 4,000 years and the Dragon Break, as you say, lasted one thousand and eight years… then it should be dust by now”

The priest was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and copy of "N'Gasta! Kvata! Kvakis!". He stormed out of the room crying those Imperial crocodile tears. The same tears Imperials cry for the “slaves” (who today live in such luxury that most have huts) when they jealously try to claw lawfully earned property from the deserving owners.

The students applauded and all joined the Dissident Priests that day and accepted the Nerevarine as the Incarnate. A white guar named “Velothi” waddled into the room and perched atop the House Dagoth banner and shat on it. “The Stranger” was recited several times, and Azura herself showed up and cleared the ash storms from Vvardenfell.

The priest was defrocked and expelled the next day. He died of corprus and was tossed into the Sea of Ghosts for all eternity.

again, probably casting with a skill you aren't a high level at im assuming under 40, and on top of this, all classes should use luck as a major attribute,

As someone who was familiar with this webm before actually playing the game, I can now confirm that this is some bullshit. You can recreate the situation in the webm, but only if you really don't pay attention to the game's systems.

I think this is a good system, btw. Stats matter even when the graphics tell you that you hit him. We already get the alternative all the time: games in which stats and character development mean nothing.

Altering an NPC's stat and not showing it beforehand is not a good argument. You should have just spawned Gaenor in full ebony to make your point strong.

That's a good point. He probably set his alchemy skill to 0, which is impossible to be at, which would reduce his ability to use it to 0%.

1) That's an event door. Event doors can't be unlocked.

If you have low personality and such they will actually attack you though, they're basically adventurers and explorers like you are.

That's a feature of MCP. You can also turn off "Trapped" messages too.

I was just fucking around in Morrowind a few minutes ago, as a level 1 character who immediately bought a claymore from the tradehouse and left Seyda Neen.

My first swing was a successful 1-shot kill on a mudcrab and I fairly easily killed random NPCs and a group of bandits and even the Dark Brotherhood assassin who I once thought was only supposed to appear until around level 8. I even killed a small cove of 5 vampires by killing each one and then resting outside. I always knew these webms were bullshit but going back to Morrowind it's actually even less bad at the start than I thought it was.

Anon, I suggest you re-record your video without the cropping. It makes it too obvious that you're hiding something.
The trick is to click your health bar in the bottom left of the screen. This will hide the stat window so you can record the entire screen without rousing suspicion. You can do the same for the inventory, magic, and map by clicking your weapon, spell, and minimap HUD elements.

Also I recommend disabling the MCP option to enhance the alchemy ingredient selection window. You want to show off how tiny and weird it was originally to make it look more frustrating.

>>379604793
Orc spellcasters are fine. They just happen to be the best race to pick if you're intentionally avoiding as many magic-related bonuses as possible early on like that player was.

>>379601541
the video that webm in question is made from is supposed to be a joke

Imagine being a Morrowcuck
Imagine playing your glitchy ass game with wooden AI and hyperlink """dialogues""", pretending to have fun while holding back the tears
Imagine looking at Gothiclords, with their lively cities and emotive NPCs that give players fantastic, intricate quests, and highly vertical open world dense with content
Imagine screaming B-BUT MUH CUSTOM MMMAGICKS and just breaking down and crying like never before

Such a pity of existence, to be a Morrowcuck

Watch the skies traveler

>>379599318
They're just dudes wandering around doing the same shit you are. Trying to find cool shit, get money.

Oblivion had them too but they were rare, and only orcs you could find in dungeons randomly looking for shit to take back to Orsnium, didn't even know they were in for the longest time and I just found one my self recently.

You could argue that making low skill points crippling was bad game design, but it makes for way better roleplaying than Skyrim's system where the only difference is 5-10 skill points that don't even do anything. A fresh off the boat bosmer should not be just as good at swinging heavy weapons and wearing heavy armor as an orc. It should still be doable, but it should take some work.
