Just pick what you find interesting, it's hard to fuck up so hard you have to start over. I'd wager it's near impossible. It's generally better to specialize or do a hybrid specialist (ie battlemage) than it is to do a jack of all trades though.

If you want something easy go down the fighter route. Redguard is the obvious pick as you get a bonus to long blade, and long blade is one of the better weapon classes in the game. I wouldn't recommend a pure mage the first time through, they're a bit of a pain in the butt early on.

But pick one armor class, stay away from medium armor, get at least one weapon skill and then you can go with whatever.

And if you feel like modding at all, http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=mods.detail&id=2030 makes the leveling system less retarded.

I know about the modding of Morrowind and downloaded the most popular mods for Morrowind. Galsiah char development is included.

So Redguard fighter is easy to play. I picked the sign that gives endurance and personality so far but is there better options? And about the skills restoration is a must for a fighter i guess? Any other skills i need to take like alchemy or smth similar

Conjuration never hurts when you're a combat character. Find a 'summon bound X' spell so you can have a free, high-powered, weightless backup weapon.

also, I'm performing the tasks from last night's poll. Just to keep you all updated.

Nice, do you use some Graphic mod? i strongly recommend to you this! http://www.gamepron.com/news/2011/01/03/morrowind-2011-mod-complete-download-here/

it would ruin the nostalgia factor D: but I plan to use a graphics extension mod after I finish this thing, though.

Oh there is a pretty good sword I would always steal in Balmora from the guard castle called the Sword of White Woe. It's a Long Sword and has a drain health spell

You can steal the Sword of White Woe in the Eastern Guard Tower, in Labor Town. The sword is located on top of a closet.

I'll let you figure out how to steal it, though it's possible without specializing in stealth.

Someone suggested telekinesis. And if it were a short blade, I'd stick around and try harder to get it :D

Ugh; anyone know how to ban an artist from a Pandora Radio station? I used to be able to do it, but it seems that the Devs removed the option.

Headbutt the guard? Joke, I don't know, never played the game.

Anyway, would be awesome to do something like this in ustream, with the broadcaster talking and starting polls where the viewers can vote what to do. The broadcaster could be a narrator or the person himself, whatever he prefers.
