Since there is some interest, a quick tutorial.
- SAVE OFTEN, IN MANY SLOTS!
- Check the control options. There is no mouselook afaik but binding 'look around' and 'look ahead' to mouse buttons will help.
- Fire spell by opening the spellbook and selecting it, there is a button to repeatedly fire the same spell.
- Sleep to recover HP and magicka. You'll sleep a lot.
- Draw your weapon, hold right click and make mouse movements to attack. Speed depends of stats and weight.
- There is dice rolls and checks when you swing, so you will miss. A lot.
- The 'mode' is not very important but make sure you are not in steal mode while in town (unless you wish to join the thief guild!)
- Get confortable with a single city, get quest, complete quest.
- You'll get mails when the main story is ready to advance.
How to exit the first dungeon :
- Leave first cave to the next room.
- Kill rat, go upstairs.
- Walk to the end of corridor to the last door.
- Kill the man, take door at the left from the room entrance.
- You are in a large room with stairs and a throne. Kill skeleton or escape it.
- Face the wall next to the throne, press your face against this wall, keep walking as if you want to go through.
- If you actually went through, reload your save. Otherwise you should be climbing, try again if you fall midway.
- Up there, turn to your right, follow the corridor to the first door.
- Enter room, dispatch foes, click the arch with a skull in it.
- Enjoy fresh air, open your map and search for Daggerfall, travel there.
If you get there by night, loiter (not sleep) until day. From there, try finding a guild that match your character (blue on maps), a tavern to sleep in (green) and a shop to sell your crap (orange). Have fun.
