The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

Well I'm biased having played it a the time, and being riddled with nostalgia, but it's one of my 3 favorite games (all from 95/96); Daggerfall, Fallout 2 and Master of magic.

ES Arena is the first, but it was....basic. Daggerfall in my opinion is the real start of the amazing lore and deep storytelling Elder Scrolls is known for. So much is established (and in some cases retconed, but I digress...) that we know today. The gameplay is basic, as you would expect, but let's be real, you know that. You play Daggerfall for the thrill of exploring a big world and the amazing story. Which you can. And should. Do it. You will not regret it. Play Daggerfall and experience a simpler time...before Bethesda became...whatever they are nowadays.

The epitome of a good ol game! BUT make sure to instal unity and some texture mods to bring it up to speed and make playable. After that its addicting and fun! unlike other elder scrolls your will find this game actually challenging rather that a joke like oblivion and skyrim. Its a lot like the MM series and with the unity upgrades its easy to get into. Simply fantastic! Elder scrolls fans must play!

One of biggest advantages of Daggerfall are Dungeons during guild quests. Each dungeon is randomly generated when you enter and never show twice. As for it's age it was one of best and still is good game. A lot of funny mechanics that make game even more exciting when You save a lot additional enemies can spawn. If You like other TES games you definitely should try Daggerfall it's one of it's kind and got one of the best Main Story quest and you can visit entire Tamriel (it's really huge world)

I can clearly see the inhuman amount of effort, planning and ideas that went into Daggerfall - and why it's an important piece of video game history. But I unfortunately couldn't enjoy it as a game. The Unity Engine remake seems lightyears more accessible, perhaps I'll give it a chance one day.
