Summary: Very dyanimc, expansive
Review: Morrowind is one of the most dynamic and expansive game worlds around. While there is a centeral series of missions in Morrowind, the game branches out with a seemingly infinite array of options. The map is expansive, and the scenery is gorgeous. At every turn, you'll find new oppurtunities, dungeons, quests, shipwrecks, and other perils (but not without rewards). The game has a high replay value. You can't simply follow a straight line through the map to complete the main story quests unlike many games of this age. Its akin to Dungeons and Dragons, without having to meet up with your friends to play. The game also has the TES Construction Set, enabling anyone to create "plugins" which modify the main game world in some way. People have already added new dungeons, continents, as well as useful items such as homes and banks. Morrowind is a good investment for those who can appreciate fantasy games.

Summary: Easily the best looking game I've ever played
Review: There's a lot to like about Morrowind, but perhaps my favorite feature is that you can go anywhere and be anyone you want. The world is very large, so large in fact that travel is impractical without using one of the forms of public transportation.I found that the most fun in the game wasn't following the storyline, but just wandering the countryside looking for adventure. And the game looks fabulous. I bought a GeForce4 Ti 4400 just for the occasion, but also played on a Gefore2 Ultra and found that it looked almost as good, though the water effects with the Geforce4 were amazing. Replayability is very high. I played a straight-up fighter my first time through, and never cast a spell. I would simply close with the enemy and beat the bejeebers out of him. I will play the game again as more of a stealth mage type character. On the downside, the game pauses constantly to load when you're in the wilderness. Once I got the Boots of Blinding Speed, the game would pause about ever 4-5 seconds. Also, I found the ending of the game to be rather dull. You run from town to town trying to gain approval, like some kind of politician. These are both pretty serious flaws, which just goes to show how good the game is that I would still give it 4 stars. One more thing... Since I did a lot of exploration and adventuring before jumping into the main quest, encounters in the main adventure ended up being pretty simple. I finished the game at 27th level, but I believe it could be done 8 or 10 levels lower than that.

Summary: Explorer's Club Rejoice
Review: Morrowind's massive, beautiful, and detailed world will keep explorers delighted for many hours. Twitchy gamers might get bored with the vastness of the world and the slower pace of gameplay, but deep role players who enjoy open-ended settings should be well pleased. There are some annoying bugs that interrupt play from time to time, but they're minor in the grand scheme of things. The game editor is extremely powerful, but is also complex and requires quite a bit of study and trial and error. I think Morrowind is worth the price of admission just to walk around and wonder at its fantastic landscapes. Just make sure you have enough horsepower. I would consider a 1000 Mhz CPU, Geforce2 or Radeon, and 256MB RAM to be a decent minimum.

Summary: Morrowind-A Code that should never have left the factory
Review: My family has installed many games on our computer. It is a relatively fast one with 1000MHz processor 32 MB of video memory and 512 MB of main memory. All games have worked perfectly out of the box- we have installed updates with no trouble. UNTIL NOW. MORROWIND NEVER WORKED. No matter what patches we downloaded, what tweaks we made to WindowsXP, it NEVER worked past the first 75 seconds of the game. A look at their website will show you that we are not alone. THIS IS A BUGGY CODE and should not have been released until it worked on any computer they could try- from super fast to just ordinary...

Summary: A Fantastic Beginning, But Leaves You Wanting More...
Review: Morrowind, the 3rd installment of the Daggerfall series from Bethesda Software promised to be the first open-ended single player RPG game in a fully immersive 3D environment with cutting edge graphics, length and depth. Well, they got the cutting edge graphics part right apparently. The character development system is excellent, plenty of options to choose from in the areas of magic, melee and ranged combat, and classes/races. This promising, involved character creation system is intuitive, deep and fun to play around with by itself. Once you've landed in the first town and are introduced to the reason you've been chosen by the Emperor and are allowed to enter the outside world, it can be a bit over-whelming and confusing - the game is very open-ended. You can pretty much do anything you want, buy some stuff, kill someone or something, sneak, steal, barter, join a guild, accept a quest from an NPC who gives you one etc.., or you can just run around the world at your leisure. The frustrating and ultimately disappointing aspect of the game is how incredibly tedious and boring the game becomes after you've gotten more than halfway through the main quest, where the game reveals just how shallow it really is. The vendors never carry much money, so finding expensive items means absolutely nothing at all. There are only 3-5 suits of armor or types of clothing any character in the game can wear, along with one or two special suits you can only find in certain areas and after completing certain quests. This simply adds to the tedium, wearing the same stuff for over 4-5 levels or more at a time. It can take up to 15 minutes or more to travel from one area to another. And the landscape is barren, boring, and repetitive, despite the hand-placed items. Everything looks the same. On top of that there are only 3-4 monsters you will do battle with 90% of the time in the game, and you get really, really tired of combating the same monsters over and over and over for 100 hours (which is what it takes to finish the game and really complete most of the quests). If I see or hear another Cliff Racer I'm going to puke, seriously. The difficulty level of these enemies never changes, they are always the same. And certain areas don't offer harder challenges than others unless you "want" to wander into a ruin, and those are of all the same difficulty level as well, no matter where you are in the game. Around level 22, as a Nord Warrior specializing in long blades, I could kill everything and everyone in the game with little problem at all, and I hadn't even finished the main quest yet - still had at least 10 or more hours to go, at least, to finish. This was horribly designed, there were no challenges left, just errand running and talking to the same people over and over. Magic and Thief characters add some depth and much-needed complexity to the game, but they get old fast and their lack of combat ability can be frustrating, ecspecially early on. You can collect and steal tons of different little odds and ends, but it gets so boring and useless that it's easy to give up after doing it for hours on end. Despite these major problems (similar to my complaints of MMORPG's) the game is very entertaining and fun because of it's explorative nature at first, at least the first 40-50 hours, making it worthwhile at least. But once you've tried and done everything for the most part, there's simply nothing more there, it gets old quick and I really can't see myself playing it again any time soon. Finally the system requirements are incredibly high and it didn't run all that well even on my 1GHZ/Geforce3 rig, but at high detail it ran more than adequately. The load times are annoying and constant also. Simply another hyped RPG that is just a single player version of Asheron's Call, EverQuest or Anarchy Online. And like most RPG's of late, boring and tedious despite the intrictate story line and world politics that push you along. If you are a hardcore PC game lover, I'd recommend it, but if you are not, take a pass, ecspecially if your PC is less than ideal for these high end games.

Summary: OK game
Review: I've played all three games in the Elder Scrolls series, and I still think the orignial, Arena, was by far the best. In Morrowind, the landscape and culture doesn't vary very much from place to place, and the combat action can get boring. It was fun in '94 with Arena, this is '02. They should make the opponants appear wounded, or let you hack of limbs, something other than just red blood splattering when you hit them. You can still get a kick out of this game; there is a lot of places to explore and many things to do. It's just not a GREAT game.

Summary: U people need a good computer!!!!!!
Review: First I will start off with game details, I bought this game a while ago. The game graphics are incredible... well could use some work. U can create any kind of character imaginable... This game requires critical thinking. I think this game is great if u have a good system.... which brings me to the second part of my story... I have a Amd athlon 1.2 gig, geforce4 mx440, 256mb, and a 16x dvd drive. It performes with a decent frame rate, at around 30 fps in fast action. I could do better with a new system...
I would recommend a Athlon xp (at least an 1800) geforce4 ti, 384mb ddr and a 7200 rpm hard drive (if u do not want to use the disc and it performes better on hard drive.)...

Summary: As good as it gets
Review: Elder Scrolls is not only a great game but and awsome sequal. It has many features such as creating your own character and an exciting storyline. Plus this game will keep you on your feet for a very, very long time. Not to mension the everlasting appeal on multiplayer mode on the internet. Overall this game is a must get and plenty to do that will definately go down in history.

Summary: Really Good Game For the High-End PC User
Review: I loved this game since the first time I saw it on TV. This was one of the first RPG's I really GOT into, though I had to buy a new PC to Play, it was very worth it. This game does have bugs, no game this SIZE wouldn't, but I find them completely negligible to the game-play. Also to avoid getting lost in this HUGE world I invested in a good, Strategy Guide. This is one of the best PC's games I have ever played and I will be playing it for a long time to come.
