I am new MW player and i already found some very funny things in this game that almost feels like cheating:

You can easily trap souls worth 40-60k (but found no one who can buy them yet. Dang, i wish there is some kind of Runescape style "alching" spell)

Buying skill from trainer. Almost too easy. Discovered very useful spells "mark" and "recall", but as purely melee failed to cast them. No problemo - one visit to trainer and i hardly fail any spell. Money makes the world go around!

And now i found type called Sedris Omalen in Maar Gan who sells saltrice and corckbulb root cheap, both needed to make healing potions. And restocks them IMMEDIATELY, making it ENDLESS resource. Needless to say, i can stay there and make my alchemy 100, and then sell potions 900% profit! endless resource of money and health potions.

This game can be so easily abused

If i play that way, my character may turn into godlike creature in no time. My strength is already 99 and other basics skills raising fast.

I don't consider training to be cheating or abusing the game. I call it roleplaying. Because, most of the time, if I want to learn something in real life I will learn it from a teacher.

welcome to Morrowind, a game so easily broken that you break it by accident by just playing the game normally.

It is not cheating no, but it IS using game mechanics to break the games already non-existent difficulty into even littler peices.
