I don't know what it is, but I always die in the staring areas for both of these games. I just can''t get past it.

Is there a mod or save edit that is basically 'godmode'? Something with infinite health or %100 damage reduction? I've looked at other save edits and I either can't figure them out or they don't work properly.

Please help me. I really want to experience the story and actual gameplay of these games rather than reading about them or watching a video.

There is a character editor over at the UESP for Daggerfall. I would avoid putting too much into the character (it resets at each level up in DF, at least it did for me)

But a small buff, like up to level 3 or 4 will get you out of the starter in Daggerfall. Make sure you Fast Travel to the first town, otherwise you won't get there.

Also, in Daggerfall, you have to move your mouse a certain way to get the best attack, so keep that in mind.
