On this page of the guide to The Elder Scrolls Online you can find a walkthrough of tutorial available in the Morrowind expansion set. Tutorial is a Broken Bonds quest which is activated when you start the game for the first time and which can be treated as a tutorial to the most important game mechanics.

Broken Bonds tutorial - when can it be activated?

Broken Bonds is a starter quest / tutorial for the basic version of the TESO game - ESO: Morrowind tutorial, Broken Bonds quest walkthrough, tips - Starting the game - The Elder Scrolls Online Guide

Broken Bonds is a starter quest / tutorial for the basic version of the TESO game. This is a Standard Edition of 2020. So, it's the version sold with the Morrowind add-on (in the past it was offered as a separate expansion set).

A different tutorial may activate if you have a different version of the game - ESO: Morrowind tutorial, Broken Bonds quest walkthrough, tips - Starting the game - The Elder Scrolls Online Guide

A different tutorial may activate if you have a different version of the game. Examples of other tutorial quests are the following:

  1. If you have the oldest version without the Morrowind expansion, then the main quest called Soul Shriven in Coldharbour will be activated. You can also take care of it later if you own a different version of the game - this will allow you to start the main storyline of TESO.
  2. If you have a purchased or unlocked Summerset add-on, you will have to complete The Mind Trap starting quest.
  3. If you have a purchased or unlocked Elsweyr add-on, you will have to complete Bright Moons, Warm Sands starting quest.

You can return to unfinished tutorials / starting quests later in the game. To do this, you must visit The Crown Store, go to The Quest Starters tab and select a task of interest from the Prologue section. You must have unlocked access to the associated expansion set.

Tutorial - can I skip it?

After launching the game for the first time, you will be forced to play a tutorial after you create a new character by using a character creator wizard - ESO: Morrowind tutorial, Broken Bonds quest walkthrough, tips - Starting the game - The Elder Scrolls Online Guide

You can skip the tutorial when you create more characters and in the case of the Broken Bonds mission you will be immediately transferred to the island of Vvanderfell. After all, we recommend taking a tutorial, as at the end of the Broken Bonds quest you get a few valuable rewards and you can be promoted to a higher level of experience more than once during the course of this quest.
