The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind GOTY Edition

Please, add Russian language

One of the best, if not the best Elder Scrolls game ever made, hell, one of the best RPGs made, period. But personally, I have a few gripes with it myself, and no, it's not the combat system which relies on D&D-esque dice rolls, no I love that sort of thing, and no it's not the outdated graphics and weird funky animations which seem to fall somewhere in a Bizarro Uncanny Valley of sorts, it's more that it's very small, and going from Daggerfall (my first TES) into this one felt very much like a shock. The game is incredibly compact in comparison with the hugeness of Daggerfall, and thus making changes accordingly, such as removing quick travel , I'm also not much of a fan of Morrowind's landscape, I much prefer the snowy climate of the kingdoms north of Iliac Bay, such as Wayrest, but there's always Solstheim, which Skyrim players surely must visit, as it's in one of TES V's expansions, and fun fact: Skyrim's Dragonborn expansion used Morrowind's soundtrack as a throwback. Anyway, buy it, play it.

Morrowind is simply one of the greatest RPGs of all time. With its immensely dense and elaborate story, great sandboxy player liberty, and an incredibly creative open world, playing Morrowind is like drinking a fine Redoran Sujamma : Yes, it may be a little rough at the start, but you just always get new flavors each time, and after a while its downright tastefulliscious. You never tried Morrowind ? What a grand and intoxicating innocence... ! Just try it. again and again. Until you awake in House Dagoth drinking Skooma...

The story is quite good, with lots of side quests and details to explore. Sure, the graphics are a bit dated now, and the interface can be clunky, but that only adds to its charm. It’s challenging, rewarding, and perfect if you love discovering secrets and customizing your experience. Overall, Morrowind is a classic that still offers an immersive, rewarding adventure. If you’re into deep RPG worlds, this game is a gem. 5/5. I would advice you to play it with OpenMW, the free open source game engine.

Morrowind is the BEST Elder Scrolls game to date. Everything you do has a skill progress bar - including walking, how likely you hit an opponent with a sword (like a dice roll in RPGs), and how likely your spells work. Thus said, Morrowind is grindier than Skyrim and Oblivion. This is why Morrowind is better! It Oblivion and Skyrim, combat got realistic. You had to simply aim your fireballs, and watch how big of a spell you used or else youll run out of magicka to use and wait for it to recharge. In Oblivion, that's the same. In MORROWIND... it DOESNT recharge. You had to think like a mage and find the recipe or a place to buy restore magicka potions to keep you safe! I can go more into it - but simply Morrowind is better. Once you select the right skills for your intended class and find the right faction to associate with and place you want to live for a while... you'll know what I mean. Morrowind doesn't get stale cause of how mod friendly it is and how much bigger and more complicated it is to the other games. But who am I kidding? They're all basically worth playing (idk about Redguard or TES1. Theyre so old. Dos and early PC games.) Morrowind > Oblivion > Skyrim > Daggerfall Unity (Play all of these.) Then: Fallout New Vegas > Fallout 3 You will be free to be whatever role you observe in each of these. These are CRPGs at their absolute Best. Forever Memorable.
