I might pick this up and try it out. I've only played Skyrim even though I own Morrowind and Oblivion.

Is Morrowind the one where you get quests by following directions on a note, or am I thinking of a different RPG?

I have severe ADHD; I need a waypoint marker or I can't play the game. If I have to follow instructions on a piece of paper, I'll just get lost, frustrated, and never find the place. I can't remember names of locations, and I forget something I read or heard literally seconds after reading/hearing it. It makes oldschool RPGs—and life in general—much harder than it needs to be.

Yeah that's the one, I'm right there with you, I probably put in several hundred hours as a kid, but never bothered to read past the tutorial, so I never made it far in the story. I have to imagine there are some good mods to help folks like us

Out of curiosity, what part do you consider the tutorial? The how to play part is only a few minutes at the beginning then it kinda just drops you in the world with a 'good luck fucko' and pat on the back. It took me years before I ever got around to the main story and that was mostly an afterthought for me at the time.

Exactly my experience, hahaha, yup, that's all I was thinking of
