The dawn of a whole new subgenre in console gaming (2009-05-01)
The Elder Scrolls games as a series are the dawn of a whole new subgenre in console gaming: the Massively singleplayer offline RPG (MsoRPG). Yes, you read that right, and it's not a typo. Why do I call them that, you ask? Simply because this series of games (Morrowind especially) is a self-contained (no internet connection required), one-player entrance into a fantasy world far deeper and much more immersive than that of any other RPG I have played yet. The graphics are amazingly detailed, the music is nondistractive yet still fits each area of the game as it appears, and the characters are quirky enough I still find myself smiling at some of their pronouncements even when I finish my current gaming session.

However, the things that reallly make this game and its series shine are A) the amazingly detailed character creation--you can literally be almost any kind of character you want to be, from a noble elven ranger with a bow (perk up your ears, Legolas fans!), to an ivory-tower chemist who spends his or her days brewing up potions, selling them, and making outrageous amounts of money, to a noble knight who defends the helpless and defenseless, to a sneaky thief who can steal anyone bare in seconds--even a vampire or a werewolf, so I'm told (I've been playing this game since I first bought it sometime last year, and I haven't even scratched the surface of the storyline quest yet!!) and B) the sheer number of activities available in Morrowind. You are completely free to play this game any way you want, and at your own pace--start and finish the main quest right away, staying focused on the storyline to the exclusion of anything else about the game, or ignore the main storyline completely in favor of (for example) getting your hands (or paws, or claws--the game has options for feline and lizard-like characters too!) on that elusive bit of legendary armor you've heard people whisper about in back alleys. As one professional reviewer of this game's successor, Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, once put it, "Go nuts!" This statement applies no less to Oblivion's predecessor, Elder Scrolls: Morrowind.

Downsides: this game lends itself a bit too easily to obsessive focus, and could therefore damage your relationships with your family and friends if you aren't cautious. Also, the game's immersive freedom means that if you _do_ want to accomplish the main quest, you must spend days, if not weeks, looking around Morrowind for obscure bits of detail buried in the many books scattered over the game world and talking to _everybody_ you can find about certain topics that just to mention in detail here would constitute a major plot spoiler--I finally gave up and looked online for a walkthrough.

To sum up, Elder Scrolls: Morrowind is one of the best (and, simultaneously, most frustrating) RPG's I have ever played. Buy it if you love Role-Playing Games and have the time and patience to play them consistently. You will not be disappointed.


Not as good as oblivion (2009-04-08)
Now I admit I started with Oblivion and it blew me away. Going back to this one I was fully aware of the graphic difference. It was the fighting system in this that annoyed me. It seemed more jerky and harder to control. The plot was good as were all the quest. There is a lot of elder scrolls fans that do prefer this over oblivion, however this is simply my opinion.


good gameing (2009-02-16)
its a good game fell short of my expectations but the person i bought it for seems to enjoy it so i guess its good


Great Game (2009-01-19)
This is one of the best games ever made, the music score is beautiful. This game will leave memories for the rest of your life, play this game!
I Love you Bethesda!!!!
