Morrowind has a wide spectrum of difficulty but in the end it's like Dark Souls. Don't charge head-on, run around and find good items first.

Specifically soul gems and high-value amulets/rings. How to win at Morrowind? Enchantments. Get the Fortify Skill spell from Mournhold and imbue an expensive ring with xxx pts of Fortify Enchant for 1 second. Cast the effect and instantly open your inventory.

Now you can practically become Exodia. Open lock 100pts? Fire, frost, and shock damage 100pts at the same time? Paralyse for 30 seconds? My favorite is resist magicka 100pts for 1 second, enough to slip on the boots of blinding speed without being blinded.

Buying these enchantments from a mage would cost you hundreds of thousands. You only need to kill 1-2 dark brotherhood dudes and sell their gear to pay for your initial boost and have enough GP left for fast travel forever. Spellmaking and enchantments are in a different league from Oblivion and Skyrim.

A lot of people mention RNG and such but you just need to train some stats. Don't forget to Admire the trainer to 90-100pts to get huge discounts. You can get easy money from soul trapping monsters in stolen gems and selling them, selling nice NPC gear, or raiding Vivec vaults. You only need ~10k to max out a skill with a trainer. Your greatest difficulties in Morrowind will be where to sell this 500K's worth of NPC gear you got from killing a few dudes at a plantation.
