The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind® Game of the Year Edition

Old RPG, best played with some mods or OpenMW today. Awesome main story, world, factions and mechanics. In the style of old rpgs a but tedious to get into from todays perspective. Progression is slow in the beginning. If you are looking for an action-rpg, you are wrong here. The struggle to power is real, but rewarding.

Where do I even begin with this game? Environment: 8.5/10 Swamplands and ashlands are most of what you'll find here. Definitely not as beautiful as Oblivion or Skyrim, but the atmosphere the environments give off make the world definitely worth exploring Combat: 8/10 You'll swing and miss a lot starting out, which causes a lot of people to quit early on. Why? The mindset. Keep in mind this is an RPG in its truest sense. Your stamina and weapon proficiency play a big part. If it helps, think of this game more as fast "turn-based". You won't always land a hit on your turn, but it does give you more freedom than actual turn-based RPGs give. Story: 10/10 There are TONS of books and documents scattered throughout the world that give you lore of not just the land you're in, but the whole world around you beyond things you'll never get to see, but know exists in the universe. You're destined to be the hero that saves the land, but how long that takes and how you choose to handle different quests is up to you. Graphics: 5/10 This game released a long time ago, so don't expect anything groundbreaking All in all this game will always be a classic and welcome entry in The Elder Scrolls.

you n'wah here is a list of tips for begginers smoke skooma with caius stare at some feet (not elvish tho) vivec is not real, slaughter him and become a real omniman (god) commit hate crimes on elves nuke argonians and elves on every given ocasion (focus on the elves more) do not underestimate skelletons nor men without shirts make op spells and name them poopyscoopy2000 collect gold on sum crazy jew shi make potions that are equivalent of mixing don julio and viagra in a can of red heinz beans that was previously used to make crack and at last, annihilate the dunmer to set tamriel free. 10/10 experience (hours low because openmw doesnt count as steam)

Game is honestly amazing if you install openmw. I can see why people say this is the best elder scrolls game.

95+6

Morrowind is one of the best RPGs ever made, at least that is my opinion. It's a game which tests your knowledge of the Elder Scrolls universe, and your understanding of its lore (by reading in-game books); understanding enhances the story. I believe no other role playing game really gives you that experience, of living within the world and trying to unravel its mysteries through research and questing beyond the main story. As you play, the mystery of who the Nerevarine is is uncovered by YOU. You make the effort of figuring things out, the game does not do it for you. Your understanding of the game's systems--spell-making, enchanting, alchemy, leveling--will improve your gameplay, and turn the game into one of a somewhat slog into something exciting, something that truly gives you free reign over the world to transform it into what you want it to be. Create a spell with fortify 500 acrobatics and jump over entire towns; cast chameleon to become undefeatable in combat; create potions of light that nuke your entire screen. There are so many possibilities and every style of play is so much fun. Traverse Vvardenfell and take faction quests from various leaders of their respective districts, help a random lady find her ring and acquire one of the most powerful and ridiculous amulets in the game. Morrowind is a game with so much to do, and the DLCs are even better. Morrowind is a game about knowledge, and Morrowind is a game about political intrigue. The world is full of depth, and the systems are equally so. If you can get past the extremely slow walk speed, the early combat which is essentially spamming until you connect, the early magic where you constantly fail to cast, etc.--I won't say the game is perfect, these mechanics are certainly outdated--you will have so much fun and have a unique experience which nothing else can provide. Play Morrowind at least once. I began at 14, it changed my life.
