A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I just got done installing OpenMW and setting up the I Heart Vanilla mod list. I also added Daisy's Lua Multimark to help with getting around a little better.

My only real requirement is that I want my first character to use spears as a primary weapon, because I miss them so much when I play other Elder Scrolls. Medium armor synergises well with spears and Bonemold looks sweet, so I'm leaning towards that, or maybe a medium/heavy mix later when carry weight's less of a problem.

Other than that, I'm open to suggestion on race, the rest of the build, and factions to seek out. What do y'all think is the most fun for someone coming back to Vvardenfell after so long?

Anything particular to be aware of in regards to Argonian equipment restrictions? I know my beloved Boots of Blinding Speed will be sadly out of reach, so maybe I'll want Resto and/or enchanting to make it up with my own Fortify Speed?

Anyone know if Unarmored would be applying for feet and head (unless I find an open helm)?

Based on the notes on the wiki, sounds like yes to your unarmored question. https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Morrowind:Unarmored
