LOL ok, you will tell me about Morrowind and I wll tell you about DS.
Well I like very much this game. My opoinion you can find it somewere in the forum. I have written about it. If you find it please inform me too because I can´t find the %&##% thread. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/memad.gif" alt="" />
Ok First thing to know. Buy a mule. As soon as you can. You will need it. There are many nice things to collect and the mule has plenty of space for you. By the mule from the first place you see. In the other locations the mules are more expensive.
Every class is really good for starting. You can make your choise depending your style. It is not like in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> that mage is very weak and it is difficult for a beginer to start with. In DS you can be whoever you want. Have no fear.
The first quests you have to do them all alone. It is not so difficult. Gather money. There are pretty good things to buy.
Apart from the people that will join you willingly, you can also hire people to have in your group. So you can make a team of 8 of your choice people eventually. 7 people + 1 the mule = 8. Or you can have as many mules as you want. But for me the best choice is to have one.
Be sure that everyone in your team has in his/her inventory enough mana portions and healing portions. If they don´t you will loose them in battle.
In my team I am a great battle mage (yes I do don´t judge me fro diablo lol), and among others one nature mage. Nature mage is important because he has healling powers and he/she can cast them in all members of your team. When you fight and the hp or mp are low, nature mage will replentish (sp?) enough of both of them with one cast to all members.
If I tell you more, I will spoil everything. One last note. The bosses seem scary but you can kill them pretty easilly.
I will be glad to hear your impresion of the game. Have fun.
I will write anything else I think later but I wont spoil it.
