You Wouldn't Survive in Real Life Morrowind

You've clearly never eaten bugs. Go eat some bugs, then tell me whether or not the food they have is decent for an upset stomach. Most bugs taste like butter or nuts. Then we got lobsters, crabs, and shrimps... Which might not be insects or arachnids, but are still no less bugs. Ants are full of folic acid which makes them kinda... Spicy. Scrib jelly is probably really good.. But I dunno from which part of the scrib they scrape the jelly. Unless it's like aphid honeydew...

Survival guide: Take the Silt strider to Balmora, suck up to house Hlaalu (never even think of leaving their lands), get a shop apprentice job at something non-heretical like the tailor, haul goods from the river barges to the shop, live in the basement until you can afford your own home and your own candles, DON'T DO SKOOMA WITH CAIUS. Alternatively, sell yourself in Suran for cheap or go to Vivec and become Uncle Crassius' _Dumpling_ and maybe you even get featured in the sequel of his book.

Being teleported to Morrowind actually sounds a little bit like going to prison. Don’t cry, it’s a death sentence. Don’t try to debate politics with someone, it’s gonna end badly for you. The food is probably gonna make you sick. Even if the food doesn’t, you’ll probably get sick anyway. And there’s the possibility of becoming someone’s property.

[@labshire]

Morrowind survival strategy: become a merchant that operates right next to the Balmoral silt strider. As a real life human I will have no mercantile stat and will be happy to buy things for full price thus ensuring everyone uses my shop. If I run out of money I can just pop over to Caldera and offload all my stuff to Creeper. Or I could just wait a few days for my gold to respawn

[@nathanjohnston9762]

Great video, but I'd do pretty well in Morrowind because my real life skills are well developed. But the real kicker, is my knowledge of Morrowind itself. For less than 300 septims in starting cash, you can easily ascend to godhood. 1. Steal the limeware platter from the census office 2. Give fargoth his ring back 3. Sell the limeware platter to Arille 4. Hop on a silt strider to wolverine hall 5. Join the mages guild. I'm already an "alchemist" (studied chemistry) 6. Take the free alchemy set from the mages guild in Caldera 7. Make a bunch of stamina potions from kwama eggs and crab meat 8. Sell the potions to Creeper in Ghorak Manor, Caldera 9. Buy Netch Leather and Bloat from the imperial shrine in wolverine hall 10. Become the most powerful being in Nirn by repeatedly making and consuming intelligence potions I didn't even have to look any of that up. It may take me a few days to figure out the formula for strength potions, because I can't remember that recipe. But fortify personality is green lichen and stoneflower petals, both of which are available in the temple at Balmora. When your personality is at godlike levels, people will trade you anything if you give them 1 gold. Guards will pretend you're not a criminal, as long as you don't talk to them. People will choose not to attack you, even if you successfully taunt them. When I crack the fortify luck potion, then everything becomes easy.

[@machravens]

As an outsider, it seems like the best bet is to look to settle down in a place like Pelagiad where the locals are friendly. The empire is always hiring and if you need a side hustle, you can just smuggle dwemer artifacts and little statues like everybody else does.

Arguably the character you play as in Morrowind isn't the Nerevarine, but just someone who happen to tick all the marks needed for the situation. Self-fulfilling prophecy and all that, I mean, just look at how many people Azura went through before you got the "job" done.

Considering Daggerfall was as close to real life size as one can get for Tamriel geography, and it was the size of England, one could summarise that Vvardenfell is about double that size. Eesh, now walking from Seyda-nen to Suran would take you potentially days if not weeks.

In Arena, it takes 3 days travel to get to Maar Gan from Balmora, which is basically the journey for the quest to get the boots of blinding speed, something that people already find tedious enough that they sometimes just kill her instead when the going is less than a single day.

My strategy, assuming mechanics stay roughly the same? Travel via silt strider (I can scrounge up 20 septims) to Balmora. Make friends. Become an associate of the Mage’s Guild and Fighter’s Guild immediately and profess my faith to the Temple or Cult. (We’re assuming that doing both would end poorly.) Utilize the opportunities provided to seek apprenticeship as an alchemist. Even if I can’t make a potion myself at first, my memory of reagent properties would likely impress Ajira or Nalcarya enough to accept me. Invest every septim I can to further my alchemical journey and purchase training in a wide array of beneficial skills. Practice magic every day, assuming that I can learn it. Focus on utility (alteration/mysticism) and healing (restoration) first. Develop into a skill-monkey and start to build up some capital. With some capital built up it should be fairly easy to slide into House Hlaalu. The goal isn’t to make waves, just to cruise along and become comfortable.

[@spartana1456]

It might be boring, but there is a perfect survival strategy you (and the other commenters) overlooked. If you can make it to Ebonheart, you can join the Imperial Cult and work as an Alms collector. The cult basically provides everything you could need as a random poor schmuck wandering in suddenly, and you can even contribute to your own subsidy by collecting Alms. As for how to spend your time after securing your basic needs... Well, considering the Imperial Cult is dedicated to helping the poor and giving them an education, evidence of which you can find in Ald'Ruhn's mages guild central hall, you can likely become educated enough (competency in speaking and written language mainly) to pursue a career and even your own business. The benefits are fairly long term, and won't endear you to die-hard locals, but once the Nerevarine takes care of the Blight Vvardenfell will open up from quarantine again and you can GTFO to safer lands. Granted, the Oblivion Crisis is coming up soon, so learning self defense skills such as weapon and armor usage (magic is unlikely to be feasible due to soul metaphysics and setting screwiness) would be a good idea. You could even move to southern Morrowind and befriend argonians if you really wanted to try and metagame things, but i wouldn't give it high odds of working. As for alternative Oblivion Crisis survival strategies, i'm not too sure how that'd go. I haven't played oblivion in ages and don't remember how bad the oblivion gates get outside of some vague lore from Skyrim telling us it was bad. I may have overthought this.

The candles are incredible in this game. I think I might have collected over 200 lanterns/candles/lamps and placed them all over to illuminate the treasures I have stored at my player homes. Yes, I have all three, death be to the great houses (Except Telvanni, LONG LIVE TELVANNI)

Yams and sweet potatoes are not actually the same thing: yams are from several species in the Dioscorea genus, while sweet potatoes are Ipomoea batatas. They do, however, look (and taste, from what I’ve read) similar enough that they’re often mistaken for one another. I’ve had sweet potatoes several times throughout my life, but never managed to get my hands on an actual yam to try; they’re quite hard to find in the northern hemisphere, most things being sold as “yams” being sweet potatoes instead.

Given my size and build I could make a great laborer if everything else fails, but given my profession as a chef I'd try an apply those skills to Morrowind in a tavern or as a cook for the Legion, if that fail, I could try my hand at fishing off docks never leaving town and keeping a sharp eye out for slaughter-fish. if a Hatchet isn't available to me then the next best thing a club, clubs are great because their low maintenance and if it breaks it wouldn't be difficult to replace. I'd use the club the beat any fish I catch then sell the scales to alchemists for coin and eat the fish. Long term i could try my hand at a crab or fish farm, mud crabs are no joke a crab that size that can also semi run as fast as it does, plus if how strong coconut crabs are anything to go off, I'd try to stay clear of them using my club and staying out of range or just run away. Preferable id want a short spear to deal with mud crabs. If all that fails, then I'll join the Legion or the town Guard. I'm big, strong, young and given my heritage and appearance I could pass as a Nord, however joining the Legion would be my fist pick since I doubt the Dunmer would treat me unfairly because of my Nord-like appearance. The hardest imo would be getting used to the food and low-quality water, my biggest concerned in dysentery.

I would find the Nerevarine and become his adoring fan.

“Careful, because what might be a mild illness there might kill you” okay but consider this the other way. I give the guards super covid

I would start to jump around to max acrobatics

If I was dropped into Vvardenfell, first thing I’d do is hike over to NW of Balmora and grab that ebony blade just laying in the mountain range.

I decided to use AI to play this out and see what its like: (edit I am up to part 3) Day 1: Arrival in the Coastal Village Location: Coastal Village, Arrival Dock You: You decide to approach the guard. Realizing you cannot speak the local language, you use gestures to communicate your needs. The guard looks at you curiously but seems willing to help. You: You point to yourself and then gesture as if sleeping, mimicking laying your head on your hands. Guard: Nods understandingly and points north towards the building with the quill and inkpot symbol. He makes a gesture as if writing and then points to the building again. You: You nod to show you understand and then point to your stomach, mimicking eating. Guard: He gestures towards the east, where the path leads to a small cluster of houses. He mimics eating and makes a motion of coins exchanging hands. You: Nod and smile, giving a thumbs-up to show your gratitude. Status Update: Hunger: Not hungry yet. Thirst: Not thirsty yet. Current Surroundings: North: Office (quill and inkpot symbol). South: Dock area continues. East: Path leading to houses and a lighthouse. West: Path into the wilderness. You: Stay observant and respectful to avoid any trouble with the guard and go into the quill and inkpot building Location: Coastal Village, quill and inkpot building You: You head north from the dock towards the building with the quill and inkpot symbol as directed by the guard. The building is modest but well-kept, made of sturdy wood and stone. As you enter, you see a few desks, stacks of paper, and a few officials working. Inside the Office: North: A desk with an official working, who looks up as you enter. South: The door you just came through. East: Shelves filled with scrolls and documents. West: Another desk with an official writing something. You: You approach the nearest official and use gestures to indicate that you need a place to stay. You mimic sleeping and point to yourself, hoping they understand your need for shelter. The official: The official looks at you curiously and then nods, understanding your gestures. He pulls out a piece of parchment and begins to draw a simple map. He marks an "X" on the map and hands it to you, indicating that this is where you can find lodging. You: You take the map and smile at the official in gratitude. Looking around for another exit, you notice a back door to the east. It seems to lead outside, possibly to a courtyard or another part of the village. Current Surroundings: North: Desk with an official. South: Door leading back to the dock. East: Shelves with scrolls and documents. West: Another desk with an official. You: You exit through the back door into a small courtyard. The courtyard is modest, with a few benches, some potted plants, and a well in the center. A narrow path leads from the courtyard to a cluster of buildings. Courtyard: North: Path leading to a cluster of buildings. South: Back door leading to the Census and Excise Office. East: A small gate that seems to lead to the main street. West: A bench with a few potted plants. You: You take a moment to scan the courtyard for anything useful or valuable to acquire. The courtyard is simple, and the most prominent features are the well, the benches, and the potted plants. You notice: The Well: Appears to be a simple stone structure, likely filled with water but no obvious valuables. The Benches: Made of wood, old but sturdy, nothing left on them. Potted Plants: Contain common herbs and flowers, no obvious signs of valuable items. You: Finding nothing of significant value or use, you turn your attention to the small gate leading to the main street. You open the gate and step onto the main street of the coastal village. Location: Main Street, Coastal Village Current Surroundings: North: The path leading towards the cluster of buildings, as indicated on the map. South: The direction back towards the docks and the Census and Excise Office. East: A few small shops and homes, one with a sign that has an image of a loaf of bread. West: More homes and a path that seems to lead out of the village. People Nearby: A man in yellow armour walking down the street. A blue-skinned man with red eyes sitting on the steps of a building. You: You walk east toward the shop with the sign depicting a loaf of bread. The shop is a small, quaint bakery with the smell of fresh bread wafting out. Inside, you see shelves lined with various baked goods: loaves of bread, rolls, and pastries. Inside the Bakery: North: Counter with a shopkeeper standing behind it. South: Door leading back to the main street. East: Shelves filled with different types of bread. West: A small table with a few chairs. You: You approach the counter and show the shopkeeper your baseball cap, making it clear that you would like to trade it for something to eat. The shopkeeper, an older woman with a kind face, examines the cap with curiosity. She seems unsure about its value but eventually nods, indicating a willingness to trade. Shopkeeper: The shopkeeper gestures toward a basket of fresh rolls, suggesting you can take a few in exchange for your cap. Items Available for Trade: Fresh bread rolls. Current Status: Hunger: Not hungry yet. Thirst: Not thirsty yet. Would you like to complete the trade and take the bread rolls, or do you want to try for a different item or location? I used up my responses for the day, I might continue it tomorrow. I'm so curious what kills me first haha

Interesting. If you get more responses on this, you might consider posting them here.

---------------------------------------------- Day 1: part 3 ---------------------------------------------- Location: On the Way to the Lighthouse The path to the lighthouse is clear, with the occasional villager passing by and casting curious glances at your attire and your activities. You: You find several sturdy sticks and begin fashioning a makeshift fishing spear, using your shoelace to tie sharpened sticks to the broom handle. Location: Shore Near Lighthouse, Coastal Village You reach the lighthouse, a tall stone structure with a warm light at its peak. The rocks by the shore are jagged, and the water laps against them rhythmically. There are no dangerous creatures in sight, and the area seems peaceful. You: You cautiously approach the water, readying your spear. The water is clear enough to see fish swimming around the rocks. You make several attempts to spear the fish, which proves challenging due to their quick movements and the refraction of light in the water. After some persistence and patience, you manage to spear two fish. It takes a considerable amount of time and effort, but your determination pays off. You: You gather some rocks and twigs, using your lighter to start a small cooking fire. While the fish are cooking slowly on the sticks, you decide to explore the nearby area for any collectable plants. Collectable Plants: Black Anther You spot a few clusters of these purple-black flowers among the rocks. Coda Flower There are some yellow, daisy-like flowers growing near the water's edge. Corkbulb Root Further from the shore, you notice some sturdy, dark roots poking out of the ground. Hackle-Lo Leaf These large, broad leaves are visible in a shady area under some trees. Marshmerrow You find some green stalks with a soft, spongy texture near the marshy ground. Critters and People: A mudcrab scuttles nearby but keeps its distance. A fisherman in simple garb walks along the shoreline, casting a curious glance at your activities but continuing on his way. You: You return to the fire, finding the fish cooked to perfection. Using your iron dagger, you cut open the bread rolls and lightly toast them over the fire. You add the cooked fish and some of the foraged plants (e.g., Hackle-Lo Leaf for a leafy crunch) to make a toasted fish sandwich. Current Status: Hunger: Satisfied with the fresh, warm sandwich. Thirst: Still manageable. Inventory: 1 Iron Dagger with sheath, 1 Toasted Fish Sandwich, some collectable plants (Black Anther, Coda Flower, Corkbulb Root, Hackle-Lo Leaf, Marshmerrow), 1 Fishing Spear. Location: Journey Back to Town The path is clear of critters. Villagers occasionally glance at you but no one is overtly hostile or passive-aggressive. Location: At the Bakery: You enter the bakery. The kindly baker is not wearing the baseball cap; it hangs from a hook behind the counter, possibly kept as a novelty. You: You mime the process of making the fish sandwich, demonstrating with exaggerated gestures. You present the toasted fish sandwich to the baker. Baker's Reaction: She looks intrigued and slightly confused. After a moment, she examines the sandwich closely, then tastes a small bite. Her eyes widen in pleasant surprise, and she nods appreciatively. Transaction: The baker seems interested in buying the sandwich. She offers you two small gold coins from her apron pocket. Location: Journey to the General Store The path back to the shop is clear of critters. The villagers continue to glance curiously but remain non-hostile. Location: Inside the General Store The shopkeeper is behind the counter, arranging goods. You enter and greet him, pointing to yourself and saying "Burt" again. He gives a small nod, then points to himself and says, "Arrille." You: You give him a thumbs up and smile. Arrille seems slightly more at ease with your presence, though still curious about your strange appearance and behavior. Presenting the Plants: You lay out the plants you gathered on the counter, miming the act of selling them. Arrille's Reaction: He examines each plant carefully, nodding in recognition. Transaction: After some deliberation, he takes out coins and places them on the counter for each plant: Black Anther (value 2 gold): 2 small gold coins. Coda Flower (value 5 gold): 5 small gold coins. Corkbulb Root (value 5 gold): 5 small gold coins. Hackle-Lo Leaf (value 30 gold): 30 small gold coins. Marshmerrow (value 1 gold): 1 small gold coin. Total Earned: Gold Coins: 43 (small gold coins) added to your inventory. Current Inventory: Gold Coins: 45 (small gold coins) Items: 1 Iron Dagger with sheath, 1 Fishing Spear.

[@David_Alvarez77]

@@driver3899 You definitely lucked out with the hackle-lo and the fishing, and I have to say that that baker seems like one of the cooler people in all of Morrowind. Someone needs to add her to the game. Anyway, I hope your character's good fortune continues.

[@driver3899]

@@David_Alvarez77 Yeah I was going to tell AI that she doesn't exist but for some reason she seemed to fit so I just went with it because I was hungry IRL and fresh bread sounded so good. Now though it would almost seem weird if she wasn't there. And I mean maybe the town has changed a little over the years since the game came out Yeah someone should mod her in, it would also be fun to play an alternate start as modern day Burt I really did get lucky with the haul of plants but eventually I will come across something bad roaming around the outskirts and then my goose is probably cooked I had thought I could make a go of it as a traveling toasted fish sandwich salesman but for 2 gold each... I don't know, selling the plants instead of using them for salad seems a lot more profitable. If only they had cheese wheels in Morrowind though, then I could really get a good price for some toasted cheese sandwiches I do have another idea but its pretty dangerous and all I really have so far is an iron dagger that now smells like fish
