The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

The missing prince of Sentinel was always a sickly child, spending most of his childhood under the care of healers and mages. His parents saw him as a disappointment compared to his siblings, so much so that King Camaron was actually pissed when he was getting marginally healthy after a long period of sickness. When he reached fifteen, he was thrown into a dungeon filled with skeletons, orcs, and other scum of society, left there to die.

The worst part is that he doesn't even have a canon name like the rest of his less sickly siblings. His name is literally randomly generated! He was literally screwed by the universe.

Note: I am currently at level 5 and only just completed this mission.

Looking for a good play through of dfu or df. I typically enjoy when the person playing narrates and does light commentary.
Not a fan of heavy role playing or spazzing for streams. Been meaning to play the game but lack time. Thnx :)!

Caves are to dark, and i like it. but is there any mod for making lanterns or candles produce more light?

Edit: go to advanced, enhancemnts You will se it down in the left corner "item based player torch"

is there any mod that restricts resting?

by restrict resting i mean, you need to set up a camp fire to rest

just to make the game more immersive

I was recently talking to another person about some suggested mods and it gave me the idea to post the mods I use. I'm open to suggestions and invite you to cherry pick a few, but just know I play on a potato.

• Red Brick Replacer - Is it a forgotten place holder? Is it a HP reference? All I know is it's gone.
• Basic Roads - Adds character to the world, doesn't explain further, stays.
• World of Daggerfall - Much like the previous mod, just a lot more massive in size. Requires the mod Daggerfall Expanded Textures. 2 thumbs up.
• DREAM - SKY - Beautiful, requires the mod dynamic skies. I don't know if you've ever tried to appreciate the night sky in Daggerfall, but there's not much to gawk at. Its a pretty bland repeating texture.
• Hot Key Hud - One of the tags for this mod says is all. Quality of life. Are you also growing tired pausing combat to scroll through some menu for a very common item? Me too. Simple and effective.
• Better Ambience - The only thing I use this mod for is the footsteps option, dungeon reverb, and literally nothing else. The dungeon fog seems like a great idea until you start getting dungeons of every color in the rainbow and revealing holes to the void. Calling this rain or snow better is lying to both of us when thunderstorms start lighting up walls and floors 30+ feet underground. Won't crash your game.
• Real Grass - Definitely not plug and play. After fiddling with the settings menu much more than I ever wanted to, this still causes lag, and you'll need to mess with the settings as from what I've read it's actually impossible to play with stones enabled.
• Vanilla Enhanced - Amazing when it works, and it works a lot of the time. Missing NPC's is another beast entirely though. Fast travel has a good chance to "send friendly NPC's to the void". It'll have you clicking the floor like you're Velma trying to find her glasses or, even more inconveniently, restarting the game entirely.

Any mods or tips that i can do to make the game more immersive? And thank you.

I can't easily describe the feeling I get when I play this game other than it's cozy. Definitely one of the reasons why it's my favorite Elder Scrolls game.

First time playing in a long time, just found an amulet at level 3 that's +18 END, but does it really do anything if I don't get the bonus at level up?

I'm just stuck. I've done the quest for the prince in Sentinel, stole the painting from Wayrest, delivered Wayrest queen's letter and returned his response, did the quest for the prince in Wayrest, got the item for the underking's agent, and delivered the lich's soul to Mannimarco. After that I haven't gotten any letters. What am I supposed to do now?

So basically my brother and I started getting obsessed with Tes and daggerfall is free how don’t I immediately die thanks

I decided to pop in the Daggerfall CD for fun on an older PC running DOS and it seems like the installer hangs at a certain point. Is it supposed to do that? And I'm installing it on the smallest size. I ended up waiting 20-30 minutes while it was at 18% before I gave up and reset the PC.

I later tried it out on a w98 PC with the cd files on a USB drive and that installed much, much faster. I don't think it's a CD issue since other games install very fast on the same system. Did anyone have similar issues back then? I might just install these on a faster system then transfer them.

And yes before anyone asks yes I know you can install DFU on a modern PC...

Just like it says. Daggerfall fighters guild has me having to fight a ranger but because he owes money I'm not to kill him. Somone help me with this. I'm a high elf with a steel claymore and an ebony dagger on Steam. Do I need a spell or what? Oh and I'm level two.

Hey everyone. I decided to finally fully explore Scourg Barrow and came across the portcullis at the end of the canyon. I can't seem to find a lever anywhere nearby. Any advice?

My character Shana Malon was taking on some generic guard duty quest offered by a tavern girl. I figured, how bad could it be? I just have to be in a certain house for 3 hours at night.

The first time I did it, I vaporized the assassin in one hit but the quest didn't progress. DFU things.

I reload, and wait outside the quest house. An assassin spawns behind me outside the house, and gets me with a poison that drains like half my stats. I see that health isn't going down. Maybe I'll have time to cast my cure poison spell. Haha no, you're dead.

I reload again, wait again, assassin is outside again. DO NOT USE LEVITATE WHILE POISONED. Health suddenly got drained like 50 times in a second and I'm dead.

Reload again. Go inside and start the quest. 2 assassins show up inside a room I had locked myself inside. A third walks through the damn door without unlocking it. FAILURE. Guess the Mythic Dawn was active a few years earlier than I knew.

Repeat about 5 more times, except without the locked door.

I finally finish the quest after a half hour or so of frustration. They still managed to poison me. There's no alchemist or temple in the town and it's too far to ride a horse to the nearest city. Death via lumpy tavern bed instead.

I reload again. Complete the quest again. This time the poisons drained Willpower and Agility. I can live with this. I fast-traveled all the way to Daggerfall City because it's the only one I know for certain has alchemists. I get on the horse, go to the nearest alchemist, get cured.

The potion cost more than the quest reward.

I go back to some dungeon, collect some religious dagger thing that's worth 2500 gold. I return to Daggerfall, buy the spells for curing disease and poison. They have like 15% chance of working and use all my magic. I can live with that. Maybe.

I just started to play the game and after trying some builds with daggers, I decided to use Long Blade to beat the game for the first time.

UESP says the skill governs the hit chance, but… I don’t think I should be wiffing twice as much compared to the time I tried using daggers, specially since I had put all my points into wrong attributes with the daggers!

Hello

My character is lvl 12 and is really strong

but sometimes i just got one shot by a disintegration spell cast by various monster in the game (lich , orc shaman etc...)

I make a magic item that *cast on held* magic resistance but seem s not enough

also i have magic item to absorb spell and also natural spell absorption

is there over way to mitigate this spell ? (all main stat are maxed at 100 via buff )

should i put some shock resistance ? fire? or there is magic school that would improve my resistance?

thanks you

Hey guys so I got hit by a Werewolf just one time (0.6% chance btw) and got infected. I have already obtained the The Hircine Ring and am now being pursued by the Werewolf hunter. He has already sent his Knights at me, but I killed them. The problem is every time I rest in a tavern (training magic so resting a lot rn) they keep coming.

Will they always attack this often? Is there anyway to stop them for good? Apparently they are only supposed to attack once a year. This has been going on for a few days now.

Also being a Werewolf is kinda op... at first I was upset because I made my character immune to disease so naturally I was a little peeved that I got infected but apparently Lycanthropy doesn't actually count as a disease or some shit. As long as I can solve these guys coming for me every other rest I won't mind being a Werewolf. Also this game is pretty dope

Good evening! I downloaded the Unity version of the game and would like to play as a Paladin.

As my Major skills, I thought of going with:

Blunt
Restoration
Destruction (Maybe this is more of a cleric thing, but I don't like being limited to weapons)

What would you guys choose for the rest?

I'm asking because I don't want to get to mid game and realize I wasted a lot of time on a character that will be severely underpowered and not fun to play
