Morrowind:
Breaking the game with alchemy. Me and my friend would go to one of the mages guild and steal the master set. Then steal enough stuff to start ur alchemy spree. First u would make the increase intellgence potions and mass those. Eventually u would have crazy intelligence and make potions of levitations for 4000 seconds and sell them. Also summoning golden saints killing them and taking there wepons.

Oblivion: The full chameleon suit.

You can beat the Morrowind main quest without talking to a single person, all the items you need and the end boss are accessible at any time, even level 1.

The game does try to kill you for doing that, but you can get around it.

And this is why Morrowind will forever trump that travesty that was Oblivion.

My fondest memory was raiding the vaults in Vivec in Morrowind. One of the Houses had the key stashed on a dresser on the top of their Vivec tower in a dwelling. You could close the door on yourself and keep it open just a crack so you could stay hidden and grab the key without being seen by the person in the room. Then you'd stroll right in to the vault and use Tower Key on all the chests. Of course you could only use that once a day, so you'd have to wait 24 hours to open another chest. Not to mention that on occasion a guard would spawn in the vault randomly, so you'd have to wait again to see that he left the room. Then I'd go to the Scamp and sell all the stuff, waiting 24 hours for each $5000 payment iirc. Once this was done, I would spend all the money training up to break into the other ones. I sold every thing from the vaults after insane amounts of waiting. Then I maxed all my skills (poorly, as I didn't realize about the bonuses to my main attributes until I had leveled a number of times). I literally played that game until there was nothing left. I wish I could load my character to see how many in-game days I was there for, but it was definitely over 1000 :D

Such fond memories.

Here is the short list from Oblivion.

1. Every woman in the game that honestly thought I cared if she saw a mudcrab the other day.
2. I created a guy to have the absolute highest magika possible. Sign of the archon or what ever, and master alchemy with huge fortify magika potions. Made the biggest aoe frenzy on touch spell. Would walk into bars and cast it on people. Then the entire bar would get into a fight.
3. Charming the unicorn and riding it around as a pet instead of killing it for its horn.
4. Using the duplicate item glitch on the skooma to make 300 of them out side of the crack house.

I fell in love with Daggerfall, the one problem was that I loved cool armor but it never dropped and I was really poor...up until I figured out that the open spell, even on its weakest setting would open any outside door. So I found the highest quality blacksmith shop, waited for it to be nights and then went to town...over and over and over. God it was awesome.

I owned Morrowind, and I remember killing Trebonius early in the game in order to get the necromancer's amulet (very powerful item). However, since I killed him so early, I was never able to become Archmage of the Mages Guild.

Loved making my strongholds in Morrowind as well. Tel Uvrith and Rethan Manor were my personal favorites, but Bal Isra was definity cool as well.

I am definitely a Telvanni supporter 100% and cannot wait for Skyrim.

It seems that your posts suggest that Telvanni will have some prevalence in Skyrim... Is that the case? I'm kind of out of the loop on this, I'm purposely staying away until exams are done after December XD

I think my favorite memory of Morrowind was once I was finally completely my character and finished bothering to level him up. I probably spent more time after the game was done then before it just messing around. I had the boots of blinding speed a ring from the king in the expansion city which was ridiculously good and among many other things allowed me to see perfectly clearly with the boots on. I also had figured out how to make a ring with 1 levitate on it permanently. This combination allowed me to fly around at super speeds which was extremely awesome. After obtaining those items I set about getting a lightning spell that was a pretty large AoE but not all that much damage or mana cost. This was I could fly around and super speeds and just bomb people. I didn't care that I wasn't killing them all I just cared that I was Zeus.

Finally figured out how to trick Steam into letting me buy games here in Korea and Skyrim is now pre-loading. Can't wait!

I've always 100% played thief-type characters in these games. I think I might finally play a warrior or full-on spellcaster for Skyrim. It'll be a big step though...

DoA I fucking love you man. Every time I hear you speak I realize that we have more in common. As creepy as it sounds haha

I remember the VERY first time I played morrowind.

It was on my friends character.

I was wearing the robe and the fur helmet and wielding the iron spark sword. It was nightime and it was raining. I was crossing that rope bridge near Balmora and I encounter and slew a kwama forager. My eyes lit up as the lighting struck the feral beast much to my delight. Then I found the miners sitting near the campfire which warmed my heart as the fire warmed their bones.

I then proceeded to Balmora and the silt strider looked ahead of my mysteriously. I then met Ra'Virr who I mercilessly slew and took his Fiend Katana. I then made his house my own and dropped all my gold 1 by 1 to make a big pile of coins.

I have been playing Morrowind for 8 years and I still haven't done everything that I wanted to do in the game.

It is by far my favorite single player game of all time.

One of my favorite things to do is to collect books.

Edit:

Finding Umbra and listening to his tale was amazing.

I loved finding the house of earthly delights. And that NPC vendor in Suran that let you take everything.

I also loved Creeper.

I too loved raiding the vaults in Vivec.

Ok I will stop now, I may as well make a thread as to why I love morrowind.

Also My band has a song about Umbra haha its pretty awesome

FINAL EDIT
Here are a few of my characters I have made, bear in mind I started playing when I was 13

Argonian pearl diver
Netch leather farmer
Ashlander
Tomb Raider
Abolitionist (free slaves)
Dark Elf anarchist(killed imperials)
Lucky thief (stacked luck)

Legion soldier
Hunter (farmed pelts)

I was playing morrowind and somehow my speed stat was well over 9000.
I hit forward once and I am in the middle of an ocean. AN OCEAN. I see some fucking lochness monster and never play the game again ( I have a fear of oceans). I never experienced morrowind the way you guys did.

Should I get skyrim?

Yeah I got 100% chameleon in Oblivion too, but it completely broke the game, so I didn't use it lol

Building a stronghold from the houses in Morrowind was cool, and finishing all the Dark Brotherhood quests in Oblivion was awesome.

Haha I have so many good memories of morrowind from when I was young. I never even beat the main quest but i must have spent a few hundred hours playing that game.

Some good ones from oblivion too, but mostly it was just me ogling over the graphics and physics engine.

All of my characters were khajit because having night vision was just so convenient, plus what isn't badass about a cat thief/assassin character. Totally hoping you can still play khajit in the new one.

And yes I'm soo looking forward to Skyrim midnight tommorow ^_^

Killing entire towns and the guards in morrowind after I saved and was done playing for the time being. I wouldnt save it, then would relog.

Haha yeah that's a classic. Suddenly all your sense of morals and trying to play a continuous story are washed away by the magical save game button.

I had one frustrating AI experience where I found an Argonian slave in the middle of nowhere in the Molag Amur region and had to escort him to Ebonheart. Trying to keep track of him let alone keep him alive was such a hassle.

One of the more frequent instances of hilarious/bad AI is when you get the Gray Fox cowl and take it on/off. Once I was wearing it to boost my carrying capacity and had to run through the Market District to get to a shop to sell my loot. The guards ran into me right before I entered the shop so I clicked resist arrest and opened the door as fast as I could before talking to the shopkeeper. After selling everything and taking off the cowl, I come back out and find that the entire Market has erupted in a brawl, since 1) thieves' guild members will protect you and thus auto-attack guards and 2) if archer guards hit their allies too much they cause them to fight each other (apparently it's only like 3 arrows for a guard to turn on his fellow guard or something). So many NPCs died that time T_T

Oh man, that reminds me. Using the duplicate item glitch to make a few hundred watermelon race down a hill. Or off a roof.

If only that did damage when it landed on someone...
