Morrowind, obviously.

Best? Morrowind.

Easiest to get into? Skyrim.

Play Morrowind, then Oblivion, then Skyrim. Each game has pros and cons, each has its ups and downs. Just take your time with them and invest yourself into the world - get to know the world instead of just killing stuff and finding loot as you would most other action-adventure RPGs.

Morrowind's stat system can be a bit overwhelming for outlanders, casualfags and non RPGfags and it's not even THAT complex.

> no Daggerfall

> no Arena

> no Battlespire

Go fuck yourself with a Daedric Dildo.

It's difficult to break into those games due to their age. If the OP wants to and can, then all the more power to him. I was going from the idea that he was new to TES, in which case Morrowind is the best compromise between newer gameplay and older depth.

>>10087

I have never heard a single good thing about Battlespire.

>>10088

Yeah, man I tried getting into Daggerfall once but they're too damn old.

You know what I'm doing? Im playing old RPGs like baldur's gate, KOTOR, Fallout 1 & 2 and so forth, I'm also gonna go play Doom again (brutal doom too, why not?) so that my eyes can adapt to such ugly and wonky game.

Hopefully, one day I'll play Arena, Battlespire, Daggerfall and Redguard.

don't play doom if you want to get into old games, it looks a lot better than ES1 or 2 for starters, and it is so much faster, and the combat so polished

it's would be like watching the best film ever made to "get into" an old tv series

where ES is the best plot/theme/world in a game series, original doom is the best pure gameplay

>FPSshit

>Best anything

The game doesn't use .wad because its players aren't massive semen-swallowing faggots, I'll tell you that much.

ZZZzzzz.

Good things about Battlespire:

> Best player dialogue of the series.

> The most lore on the Daedra of any game.

> The most advanced character builder.

> The game has spears.

> You can talk enemies into killing each other.

> Most difficult in the series.

> Hand-crafted, expansive dungeons designed non-linearly.

> It's on a spaceship.

> You punch a Daedric Prince in the face (with your weapon).

There is literally nothing wrong with Battlespire.

>>10133

>The game has spears.

I love how this transcended a meme and became a selling point.

>>10086

I'm just now replaying morrowind and it's not even that hard tbh.

I'm doing a light armor-short blade runthrough and it's easy as fuck. The Dark Brotherhood armour is easy to cheese out if you're into that kinda thing, and you get a glass dagger 5 quests into the Morag Tong questline. A daedric one 3 quests after that, or something like that.

Going Long blade+shield is even easier, and magic has always been op. I don't get all the bitching.

Play Morrowind, it's better. Play vanilla, no mods.

Use the community patch, download it off the UESP wiki.

And the Code Patch. That's all you need going in.

>>10148

I never understood the bitching, but most people would never find the assassins given how tucked away they are in the Vivec Arena- I mean- Vivec as a given is hard to navigate, it's like all the whiners quit too soon or use shit builds.

The community patch is hardly vanilla with all of the dumb shit it changes for muh modder opinion. Even thepal's version that did far less of this fuckery takes the game in a different direction on a few quests etc. You're better off just fixing shit via the console on the few points it's required, without the patch.

Code Patch is the most important, and most vanilla depending on how you install it. I wish the UMP was that modular. Sadly, Quorn and everyone else that has ever touched it is basically a faggot at the end of the day.
