Who likes the games? I found the very deep and fun. The amount of quests and such. It is the BEST RPG i have ever played, But this might be of my dislike for turnbased games. It is not that i hate them I just have less fun.


So what are your thoughts? 8) 8)or just post how kick [censored] this game is! 8) 8)

To be honest, I do like it, but not at much as the turn based RPGs. Morrowind may be a freeroam game, but it is too free. I find that I get lost over and over cause no areas are restricted beyound "push this button to open the locked door to the pit of doom." Also, it is too easy to screw-up your quest. Sometimes when you kill a quest person, you don't get the thing that says "you have killed an important quest character, you need to load an earlier save game or else continue on in a doomed world, blah blah blah..." Just so you know, I get that 1 alot... I will sometimes go on rampages and whipe out entire towns. I even killed that 1 god a few times, can't think of his name though. It has been awhile since I played it.

I do like Fable alot though. I has a similar play style, but I never get lost. My only complaints with Fable are:

1. Too short.
2. Good/Evil thing doesn't really affect anything.
3. Too easy.

I mean, when you can kill the final end guy without taking a scratch (I have done this btw), then yeah, it's too easy.

I remember becoming immersed in MW's charms for at least two years. But now I've fully completed it.

And personally, I like the free roaming ability, though the restrictions are a bit easy to overcome. You'd think they'd restrict access to Red Mountain... o.O nevertheless, I think Bethesda got the hint and amped up the restrictions in Tribunal/Bloodmoon.

But I've played it through so much it's boring, so I await the release of ES4...or is it already out?

Morrowind is pretty good.. Got it a few years ago and been grabbing mods like crazy to improve the game and add to it. There's several mods and game fixes that give better graphics and script fixes... Haven't played all the way through because every time i get a new mod for it, i start over for the full effect ^_o

I've played Morrowind, but not much.
I didn't care too much for it, if only because of how easy it is to steal from people(being able to unlock level 50 locks with almost 100% success rate as soon as you start the game... >_>), and how slow combat is(miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, hit, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, miss, hit, get killed by slug).
Can't wait for Elder Scrolls IV though. Woo for realistic people! And for the complete lack of random hits/misses! Oh dear God I'm going to love that...

Oblivion promises to be morrowind with all the things you loved and without all the things you hated, and much much more.

Only played through the whole story once but has a added many mods extending the char viable lifetime multiple times.

Loves the series that managed to fit great britan into 18 MB.

My current favorite is Morrowind. It's large and vast world is amazing. The side quests I have done in one area is 7, and theres more than 15 tows and dungeons in vvardenfell itself. The story quests are a little challenging, so you need to train off for a while before you start it. And most importantly, it has kick [censored] mods. Theres mods for everything now. And it even has texture refit mods to make the graphics better.

The only thing I dislike about morrowind is the fact that there is eternal fog.
