    For people wondering, criminal conspiracy roughly translates to "You're probably gonna commit a crime, so we're arresting you just to be on the safe side." It happens when you have a bad reputation around town. The guards just assume you're up to something because you've been known to be bad in the past.

      @TallDryGlass Bah, that’s nothing lad! When I arrived at my first town in Daggerfall, I accidentally murdered an innocent persoon with a misclick, in broad daylight. I pleaded not guilty in court, somehow managed to convince the court of my innocence, despite crowds of witnesses and was released. Later, however, the guards arrested me for “criminal conspiracy”, which basically meant I looked kinda dodgy and whatever crime was going in was probably my fault. I pleaded not guilty again and despite the fact that I actually wasn’t this time, I was still arrested and sent to prison. Beautiful game.

      I don't think Stealth is actually possible in Daggerfall. Sure, you may occasionally find a lone thief or knight and get a backstab, but chances are your backstab won't kill them and they'll start fighting you. And don't even try with liches.
      So you might as well fight everything normally.

      @@walnzell9328 Interesting fun story. My last Daggerfall playthrough was as an unarmed monk with skills basically in unarmed, languages, and mobility skills. Due to the languages pacifying opponents, I would run up behind them and punch them in the back. This had two unintended effects: my backstab skill, and my stealth skill both shot through the roof extremely quickly, and were soon maxed out despite starting at 5 and not training them whatsoever. Even the enemies that I did not pacify were completely oblivious to my presence and I was able to *sprint* around the dungeon while backstabbing basically everyone. No crouch, no slow movement, my 95 stealth meant I zipped around and backstabbed with nobody noticing me. My monk/diplomat character (accidentally) power-leveled assassin skills much faster than an actual dedicated assassin character would. Sneak is actually powerful in Daggerfall, as are the languages. A takeaway - I think that standing behind an enemy with their back to you levels sneak much faster than crouch sneaking around slowly like in later titles. People frustrated that sneak seems worthless are half right - it is, if you play it Skyrim style. Even if you don't have language skills or use calm, I bet your stealth will rise faster if you sprint toward an enemy with his back turned than doing stealth archer meme shit like it's a later title.

      You should. Unity and a dozen mods or so make it on par with Skyrim for me, in a different way. Yes the quests are a bit clunky, and there is a bit of a learning curve to understanding dungeon navigation and time limits and such, but man, from ES II-V Daggerfall takes the cake for unlimited class viability, and once you know how dungeons work you can effectively traverse them (A giant 5-block dungeon should take around 45 minutes if you know how to navigate it). With their mystery and getting lost eliminated, I'd say Daggerfall's dungeons are the most fun in the entire series. You know that fun explorer's itch that gets scratched when you come across a new unknown map marker in Skyrim? That is every single Daggerfall dungeon, and there are thousands of them. Play it dude, you won't regret it.

      @@billb.4420 I'll try to keep this as short as I can.
      Each dungeon is made of randomly generated blocks. A block is made of 5 to 8 floors, usually. A dungeon is made of 1 to 5 blocks, usually. Each block has a North, South, East, and West side. There are ALWAYS two exits from the block on each side, except for the blocks on the outside edge of the dungeon.
      1. Hotkey the map. You will need to use it very often to figure out where you are, and what you haven't explored yet.
      2. Clear floors one at a time. Wander around the floor you are on until you find a way down to the floor below. Keep going lower until you are on the bottom floor. DON'T LEAVE THE BLOCK if you can. If you find an exit, don't go through, unless it is a wing that keeps you on your current block.
      3. Once you are on the bottom floor, search everything. Every room, every hallway, every exit. Look at your map to make sure you got everything. Then go up to the next floor and search that too.
      4. Keep going up until you are finally at the top floor. By now, the block should be completely searched and mapped out. There are a few dungeons where the block has a floor that can only be gotten to from another block, but those are rare. DON'T worry about it, save those til last.
      5. Block one is searched. Now find where the exit to block two is, and start from rule number 2.
      6. Keep going until all blocks are searched and mapped, or you found the target. You should now have a complete map of the dungeon, making it easy to find your way back to the entrance.
      There are a few more advanced things, like teleporters and secret doors, but you'll get the hang of them eventually. Once you know where a hidden door is on a type of block, it will always be there every time that block type is loaded. You just have to find it once and remember where it is.
      The other thing is to know how to read the small yellow overmap on the map screen, it tells you how many blocks there are, how many wings there are, which blocks don't have exits on one side, etc. Once you get the hang of it, clearing one block should take you around ten minutes to clear. In a giant 5 block dungeon, that's 50 minutes, and you should never get lost or lose the exit. And that is if you have to search them all; sometimes the quest item is in the first block, meaning you can be in and out in like 5 minutes. This is all a little more effort than a Skyrim dungeon, where you just walk down one long hallway until you wrap around to the beginning. But having to think more about where you are going and your search strategy, is what makes Daggerfall more fun and engaging. This wall of text may make it seem complicated, but it really isn't. Do a couple of two block dungeons with this strategy to get started, you'll see it isn't so bad.

      Yep! It's a buggy mess BUT if you can deal with the crashes, it's actually really interesting from a worldbuilding perspective. In just six levels the realms of oblivion arr much more diverse than as portrayed in TES IV: Oblivion, and with the ability to talk to the enemies, you can learn more about the worldview and beliefs of the daedric than in any other game. I doubt most people even realize that clannfear can talk!
      Not to mention the Soul Cairn level. The ability to talk to bonemen and mistmen makes ya realize that they're a bunch of undead hippies just wanting to chill for eternity in peace and love. Something not at all evident in Skyrim's piss-poor portrayal of the Cairn.

    We definitely eat beans on toast here in Texas. People either were never poor enough to have to do it or they just lie to themselves.
    Ranch style beans + butter + Tabasco, mopped up with fat slices of white bread. Mmmmmm delicious.
