my son started his own game and the problem is this:
when he looks at a plant like corkbulb root all it shows is a bunch of question marks instead of what it can be used for like fortify luck. what is it that he needs to read or do.
thanks

If your Alchemy skill is very low, then you won't know the effects of alchemy ingredients, hence the question marks. You can fix this by improving your Alchemy skill.

The higher your alchemy skill, the more effects of an ingredient will become available and you'll notice less effects with ???? marks.

hes right but you sould just screw morrowind and get you son Oblivion its a lot better, and this site has a lot better stuff for getting hes charaters up and running, or a least more than Morrowind.

That's really not helpful ya know. If he wanted advice on buying a new game or an alternative game, he/she would have said so.

Maybe they've got an old computer and can't afford the hardware for Oblivion or maybe they simply wish to play Morrowind before trying out the sequel?

Plus, Morrowind is much better.
