The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind GOTY Edition

I really love this game. Well I love Elder Scrolls. Morriwind is cool. It really look like another wolrd, It really have soul and spirit of adventures. And POWER OF MAGIC.

I give this game a 4 out of 5 because no game is perfect. In what ways this game is not perfect? The music is only 45 minutes long for a game that does not tell you when to finish your daily gaming time with this work of art, the bugs with the followers, the problem with the text font that now looks horrible while with the old bulky monitors it had a reason to be like that. But I would say that the most important problem is the game does to you after you completed the main quest the first time, the world you just experienced in your heart, that emotional bang. I hope Bethesda amends this, for the sake of us all, because now what I most miss is not the countless hours that happpened afterwards, but the first 30-minute-gameplays.

To address the remarks from Brummbrummquiek's review (page 8), that are quite typical in terms of one of Morrowinds perceived flaws, this is a crpg, where rpg means you have stats and they matter (unlike the later bethesda TES). Morrowind is not an action fps in a weird medieval setting! If you can't hit an enemy it is most likely because you have zero or little skill in the weapon you are using. Use a weapon you have some skill in. ---------------------------- Mods. Modding Morrowind takes it to a whole different dimension (in every sense of the word!) and you can find pretty much everything you might ever want to add at the various mod portals here: http://mw.modhistory.com/home http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/searchresults/? And would recommend a guide like this excellent one: http://btb2.free.fr/morrowind.html One option is to use an already packed mod list like with the Morrowind Overhaul: http://www.ornitocopter.net/morrowind-overhaul/ Default Morrowind GOTY is decent, but you can mod it something crazy to make a Modded Morrowind that is arguably the best crpg available to this day. It's why i have my own Massively Modded Morrowind on my PC to this day, and not any other TES (except for Daggerfall!) :)

The best Elder Scrolls in my opinion.

Morrowind departed from the previous direction of the series, in Daggerfall, with a more tailored approach to the world. In my opinion, and from the perspective of someone if immense importance to the Elder Scrolls series like Julian LeFay, this is not the direction it should have taken. Nevertheless, the story and world still manage to grip you, and pull you into the illusion of a living universe, full of intrigue, danger and massive scope. I heartily recommend the game to fans of roleplaying games, and if there are things you don't enjoy about the way things such as combat works (it's old school, and to-hit chances are like rolling a dice, not at all like the newer games in the series), there are probably mods out there to fix things to your liking. Like with all games in the series from Morrowind onwards, the modding community is what makes these games worth revisiting. On a personal note, and as a huge fan of Daggerfall, I'd just like to add that I deeply wish the developers had taken a different approach to the whole thing, but alas, the Morrowind that could have been will probably never see the light of day. Mods can only get you so far.
