this game is so awesome. i am a night elf assasin named reginald and i have just killed a wood elf for his healing ring.

its amazig!

I'm a mighty Nordic Warrior named Argronok wearing the strongest Plate Armor and wielding the legendary blade, Chrysamere.

That's a coincidence. My Jack Russell is called Reginald, and just like you, he's a dawg :)

I've never forgotten how much I don't love it.

oh hell yeah! omg ur opinion is incorrect

I look forward to starting this. Still deciding on what my character will be like. I'll share it here in due time.

So far I've mainly been testing the game and configuring it to run on WINE and to use a 16:10 resolution for my screen.

I used to play as a Nord Battlemage. Has to be the best class i ever touched. Alas, my prepaid is now empty and i cannot use the trick i did, to buy stuff here again. Or else, right now, i would have been playing morrowind, too.

It's got some dangerous music as well. Dangerous as in, when you hear it you are immediately filled with a powerful urge to re-install the game

Banned for not liking Morrowind.
Oops, wrong thread, damn!!

Also oops incorrect!
I don't love it, I'm still fond of it.

What's wrong with not liking Morrowind? It was my single most disappointing game purchase of all time. If being an overpowered demi-god walking around a barren and static world is your cup of tea, by all means go ahead, I'm glad you enjoy that kind of game.

Me on the other hand:

I will never forget how excited I was for this game to come out.
I will never forget how amazing it looked when I left the prison ship
I will never forget clearing my backlog (at that time) so I could get lost in this game
I will never forget how the paper maps that came with the game left me anticipating to explore
I will never forget after clearing my backlog still not starting this game because I was waiting for the Bloodmoon expansion to come out
I will never forget the time after trying different setups, I found one I wanted to finish the game with
I will never forget coming home with the Bloodmoon expansion

And then..............:

I will never forget how the difficulty curve all but disappeared after a few hours of play
I will never forget how small and lifeless the towns where
I will never forget how dull and tiny the dungeons where
I will never forget how fast it was to become stinking rich
I will never forget trying to dump all that money into training only to make the first problem I mentioned even bigger
I will never forget as I played, the hope I had the game would improve
I will never forget my hope waning as I trudged through this game wanting it to pick up
I will never forget wanting to like the game (even today)
I will never forget how tedious cliffracer encounters where
I will never forget how less tedious other creature encounters where
I will never forget the Daedra, while dangerous in Daggerfall were pushovers in Morrowind
I will never forget how I killed the big bad in 5 hits
I will never forget the relief I had when I finished the game and 2 expansions

Morrowind is a stinker of a game yet even today, I still want to like it because it has so much potential.

Doh I had no desire to play this one again but reading about character creation and equipment loadouts is almost enough to make me want to double dip and roll up a character!

Morrowind is the game I spent more time on than any other.

I don't know how you couldn't love this game.

When it came out, its immersion factor was so far ahead of the curve it was its own universe. I remember thinking Balmora was just huge and I would never explore it all... and then I journeyed to Vivec.

Hundreds of game hours later, I had beaten the game + both expansions, but still didn't touch large areas of the game world... just amazing.

That same summer (the year Morrowind was released) Neverwinter Nights came out, and I remember feeling completely underwhelmed by NWN after having spent many hours playing Morrowind.

That's because most of NWN's development went into the toolkit and the original campaign was done as an afterthought only because customers wanted a game to play too.

The bad quality of the NWN OC really shows and yes it is underwhelming. However, the reason to pick up NWN is the user created modules, not the crappy OCs
