Today’s game is some more Daggerfall. I originally intended to just go back to oblivion, but fuck Daggerfall is addicting. I love how immersive it feels. There’s a ghost haunting this one specific town? It actually attacks you at night in that one specific town out of like 2000 towns in the region. Need to find someone specific? You’ll have to ask around. The asking does get a bit tedious when everyone is pissed at you for some reason and won’t help you, but the world is so much fun to explore regardless.

I ended up going to the City of Daggerfall to help the queen and went into the court. I’m not a high enough level to help her yet though i so i went to do some side quests to get my level up.

I ended up helping rescue this woman’s daughter from the Thieves Guild. I had to do a bit of waiting to get back in to where she is though. While i was waiting i was attacked by the Ghost of the dead king (which i mentioned earlier). He paralyzed me and killed me, so i learned a valuable lesson. Don’t sleep outside or the ghost of dead monarchs will curb stomp you.

I ended up going back to the court after a few missions and leveling up and i talked to the king. I don’t know what his deal is but he seems to hate me for some reason. He talks to me like i personally killed his family or something. Their court Jester also makes demonic sounds whenever i talk to him, so i think this whole castle is just a little whack.

One thing i found out you can do is just buy a boat and live on it, which is something i want to do. At this point i’m not really interested in solving the king’s murder, i kind of just want to buy a boat and sail around Larping as a merchant or something lol

    Thanks for the guide on the dialog! I couldn’t figure out why everyone hated me, and i had assumed it was a combo of a low personality + being a Khajiit lol. So it’s nice to know i was at least half on the mark. The Blunt and Polite thing is making a whole lot more sense. I’m definitely saving some of those mods too (it will probably wind up being all of them knowing me), especially the Autosave and Quick Save one. Not even 4 hours in and i’ve been burned by that mistake multiple times. Pressing F9 to quick save has become a habit whenever i have to open doors
