The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall

I wasn't expecting an RPG of this age to be so good. Of course it's completely different from Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim, but my god, it is charming. Everything is so colorful and easy to read on the screen that I mostly played it at sundays just to relax. The technology behind the size of the world map is astonishing, and every RPG lover should at least try it just to feel how it was made. Some mechanic aspects of the game as levelling up, combat systems and inventory management didn't age very well, but if you play with Daggerfall Unity, most of these problems can be solved. If not, it has a long mod library on Nexus. Also beware that it is huge and very repetitive on quest variation. You will spend most of your play time inside labyrinthian dungeons searching for a needle in a haystack, with no quest pointer at all; a migraine indulcing map which reveals itself as you explore; and some enemies that can kill you with half a hit, at least in the beginning, so make sure to save a lot and always. All the Elder Scrolls races and classes are there, also the alchemy and spell creation. Some cities are filled with taverns, stores, banks and houses to interact with, so you will have a lot to do even when you're not doing some quests. After a couple of hours you will stop engaging with most of the NPCs, as most of them are just walking paper dolls, but let's not forget this is a game from 1996. There are no dialog options, neither voice over, but I particularly loved the writing and lore of this game, paying attention to what the main NPCs has to say, reading books and letters. It's a nice piece of RPG history and totally free to download.

If you’re playing the Elder Scrolls games backwards from Skyrim, this game will probably disappoint you. So you really have to look at it through the eyes of when it was new. First of all, this game could have easily been called “The Elder Scrolls: Texas,” because everything about the game is BIG! The map is almost the size of Great Britain, the cities and towns are huge, and you can even get lost inside some buildings. And don’t get me started on the size of the dungeons. But that’s also part of the problem with Daggerfall. See, a lot of quests are timed, in that they have to be completed within a certain number of in-game days. And there is no “fast” travel option - you have to look up your destination on the map and choose how to get there. For example, traveling from one end of the map to the other takes something like 10 in-game days. Because of this, you don’t usually have time to randomly explore the map. On the other hand, a lot of locations look the same. But this is how you fit a game world of this size on a PC with specs that make a Raspberry Pi seem powerful. Overall, this isn’t a bad game at all. It just hasn’t aged well. If you want to give it a try today, I’d suggest running the Unity version.

Listen... the graphics are a 2 of 10. Everything else is a 10 of 10. If you love the elder scrolls and want to travel back in time... play this game! You will arrive at a more simplistic and on the other hand excrutiatingly painful game that hopefully expands your gaming horizons.

开局键位需要更改，不然可能被老鼠咬死，改完后跟玩老滚5操作差不多，可以参考https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2800762480 不看剧情的话感觉英语不是很难，做任务就是到什么地方，杀什么东西，或者拿个什么东西，然后再回去要钱就行了。 Dungeon都很大，而且是三维立体的，导致我经常迷路，我玩这游戏大部分时间都是在找路，所以不要玩纯战士流派，不然都没法法术回城。宝箱里的东西东西都是随机的，总要花时间SL。

its a great game if you put in the time to learn it
