>okay I guess but just seemed like a time sink where nothing got accomplished

Real talk, does this look appealing to you?
>>
>>342730683
I thought the Oblivion combat was wonky yet fairly balanced and deep, and the Skyrim combat was fluid yet shallow as fuck. This just looks bad though kek, are they both really low level?

jesus christ, you skycucks

>>342731446
its fine you just need to understand what the different numbers of your stats mean and not take on enemies way higher level than you
>>
>>342731485
I mean... that still looks horrible
>>
>>342730538
Oblivion has characters?
>>
>>342731446
Its fair and it makes sense when you know how it works, but its still better with something like gracious violence or the /vg/ edit of gracious violence
>>
>>342731446
No unless you use weapons wich you have low skill for, or try to fight someone higher level than you.

>Altmer
>The Altmer are one of the oldest races on Tamriel, one of the earliest descendants of the original mer race of Aldmer, and from there, through the Ehlnofey to the divine et'Ada themselves. As a race, they are extremely proud of their Aldmeri heritage and make a concerted effort to maintain their genetic lineage. Their name translates from the Aldmeri language as High Ones or Cultured Ones; a name which is often interpreted to mean "tall", or more often, "snobbish". For their part, the Altmer argue that they are the first true culture on Tamriel and still the most civilized race; an argument that even human scholars find difficult to refute. The Altmer primarily live in the province of Summerset Isle, a large island off the southwest coast of Tamriel, which shares a border with Valenwood. According to their histories, their Aldmeri ancestors arrived on Summerset Isle due to mysterious reasons from the continent of Aldmeris.

Why aren't any of you moving? It still serves a purpose.
While stats determines whether or not his actually hits or misses, you can legitimately dodge attacks as well.

>0 stamina
woah... really makes you hit...
>>
>>342731446
not really. It's stat-based combat. When you lose it's because your stats suck AND you're not prepared, since there's plenty of ways to improve your odds.

Basically when you attack someone game uses your skill with type of weapon, stamina, agility and luck (in that order) to calculate your hit chance. Then it armor, skill in using armor, agility and luck of your opponent to calculate his evasion chance.
Then your hit chance and his evasion chance are compared to define chances for your attack to do damage, and chances to do jack.

I certainly enjoyed Morrowind far more than Oblivion and also Skyrim, but the graphics are near impossible to live with today. If you're going to play it, research which mods hardcore fans use today.

If you don't mind terrible graphics, play Might&Magic 6-8, it's a great "trilogy" and although immersion and graphics don't compare to Morrowind, they have a comparable game experience, only better.
