do you recommend Morrowind Rebirth and other mods for first playthrough?

[Potato]

Hi. So I have played Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3,NV,4 with intense mod. I'm looking to try Morrowind for the first time since I heard a lot of praise about it. Some even say it better than Oblivion and Skyrim.
Can you guy recommend some must have mod for Morrowind? Nothing crazy. I just want graphics and characters overhaul and bug fixes.
Here is a list of some mod I pick from Nexus top download. Are these ok to use or there are better alternative out there.
Morrowind Code Patch
Morrowind Rebirth
Morrowind Enhanced Textures
Robert's bodies
MGE XE

All good apart from Morrowind Rebirth which will change the Vanilla experience a lot.
Also you may want Unofficial Morrowind Official Plugins Patched, if you have the DLC's.
Check this link for some top quality mods from this year, mostly textures but also a couple of quests.

Addendum to above.
I highly recommend Scum Retexture https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/42582?tab=description
You would not believe the difference it makes to the Bitter Coast.

Agreed with previous poster, Rebirth is too much

I wouldn't recommend rebirth for a first play through. It's meant for people who know the game inside and out and played it so much they need something fresh. Rebirth ups the difficulty a lot, which is fine for experienced payers who know the game is easy, but not for new players who the vanilla game is gonna be hard enough for.

Thanks for the info. Is there any other mod that improve graphics but not change much of the gameplay as Rebirth?

Just look for texture replacers like slayor mentioned. Rebirth is intended for those that want a different world/timeline.

As others have mentioned it changes the game to much. Never played it myself because it does not interest me. For a new player i would not recommend it if you want to experience the real world

Don't use Morrowind Rebirth on first playthrough.
"Robert's bodies" is a matter of taste. They don't look like vanilla. You can use something like "Familiar Faces" or "Facelift" and "VSBR Vanilla style body replacer".
The other mods you mentioned are okay.

You can use recommended mods from OpenMW curated list
https://modding-openmw.com/lists/
Most of the mods are compatible with vanilla. Use "I Heart Vanilla: Director's Cut" modlist, except "containers animated", "Vanilla Inspired Water", "Auto Ammo Equip", "TrueType fonts", etc. mods which are OpenMW-specific.
