    Best game Bethesda ever made. Best story, best worldbuilding, and best gameplay if you actually take a couple minutes to learn how it works.

    I'm sorry to say this, but it's too old a game for me. The gameplay is too dated to play today. If this game is remade, it could be one of my favorite games, but as it is, it's unfortunately unplayable now.

    I have to learn how to play this game, but after I did - oh, what a journey! Yeah, combat is dated and some quests are maybe way too simple, but other than that, this game aged like a fine wine.

    The first elder scrolls game to start to nail down the formula that made oblivion and skyrim so successful.

    A true role playing game, but with clunky mechanics. This game has intense depth and immense replayability. It is hurt by its age, with graphics really not holding up to modern standards, even with mods. Of course I have to mention "Miss, miss, miss!" - however, this aside, Morrowind was best RPG of its time period and laid the groundwork for a new era of RPGs. On launch, this was a 10/10 game.

    It would be folly to espouse the notion that Morrowind is a game which has aged well, for it is conspicuously a concoction of the early 2000's. It is arduous, mentally strenuous and inherently arbitrary in both the combat and dialogue.

    Ok, guys. It's hard to write a short review on Morrowind because the game is iconic, legendary and it's been so many years it was released.

For the time, it was a very smart decision to justify why the protagonist is cool, getting stronger and finally    Ok, guys. It's hard to write a short review on Morrowind because the game is iconic, legendary and it's been so many years it was released.

    Pros.:
    - Interesting story. It has many details, names, characters. And the twist that the protagonist is becoming the prophetic figure. For the time, it was a very smart decision to justify why the protagonist is cool, getting stronger and finally fights the antagonist.
    - The world. It looks dull and boring. But Morrowind has interesting backstory, many characters for interaction, nice locations.
    - There is a variety of paths to play the game. Also, Tribunal may be interesting as well as Bloodmoon. They expand the story.
    - Main theme is legendary.
    - Memes based on the game are awesome.

    Basically, the coolest thing of the game is the story and world building.

    Cons.:
    - The game is VERY outdated. The pace is slow, too much grind, the game literally forces you to grind, finish many alternative quest lines to actually do something in the main one. The Fifth and Fourth trials are trash - all that running around with stupid quests and begging to be named Nerevarin...
    - Upgrading and lvl systems are trash too - you start the game jumping all the time to boost the skill. You have an alternative of training but it is costly. Need more money from the quests. Main quest line money making is unreasonably low. So, you HAVE to go around and finish as much as you can do.
    - No fast travel. People tell - you need to explore the island. Screw the island - the huge chunk of it is just dusty, ugly ashlands. Bethesda did right when switched to fast travel (that I highly criticized for years).
    - Too many boring quests. Dumb bring-take.
    - The character is very slow regardless of your 100 speed.

    There are more cons. The game is just outdated with its expansions. Better to play Skywind (when and if it's released) which should be adapted for modern standards. This game is AWESOME and it WAS awesome. But its time passed long time ago. And for those, who remember playing it being 14-16 - too late guys. Cant waste that much time for the game.    … Expand

    I played Morrowind after I had already played Oblivion. The graphics are outdated but the scale of the game makes up for this fault by offering the player lots of side quests, lots to visit and see and a wide range of weapons, armour, spells and abilities.

    This is definitely the best RPG of all time, the amount of detail in it is horrific and giving you complete freedom in almost everything is really amazing, the only downside for me is the combat system, and why Bethesda has given up many features that were in Morrowind and not used in Skyrim And Oblivion that doesn't make sense at all?!

    Morrowind is a frustrating masterpiece. Both one of Bethesda's only good in house releases and also amongst the worst to play. I'm going to be real here, for the time, Morrowind was incredible. In 2002 and for years after that it was amongst the best RPG's out there.

Both one of Bethesda's only good in house releases and also amongst the worst to play. I'm going to be real here, for the time, Morrowind was incredible. In 2002 and for years after that it was amongst the best RPG's out there. But in 2022, as more and more RPG's come out with better and better mechanics, Morrowind begins to show it's flaws.

    Combat: Unintuitive at first. And that's what gets me the most. Elder scrolls games are full of combat. Your attacks are based on movement, which sounds good, right? If only. Granted, given enough time you will get used to it, and when you do, it's good! But you will fight the mechanics as much as you fight your foes. You will die. A lot. Time and time again as you grow more and more used to how this horribly jank combat system works. Your sword will pass right through foes, as the dice roll the game uses to calculate attacks hitting does not count if the weapon you use actually touches the thing you're fighting. Fans of the game pride Morrowind for being brutal and not holding your hand, but difficulty alone does not make a good game. Morrowind misses that memo, time and time again.

    Movement: No. Please. You move at a snail's pace, and your sprint is not much quicker. This forces you to slow down, look around, take the world in. This wouldn't be a problem if the world were anything worth looking at.

    Graphics: For a game from 2002, it could be worse, but this needs to be said. Morrowind is a mess of jagged polygons and low resolution textures, made all the more frustrating by the simply incredible aesthetic design. The world is both grating and wondrous to look at, befitting the game itself. It simultaneously makes you want to vomit and gives you headaches, as much as it makes you marvel at how they accomplished this in 2002 and makes you yearn for a perspective not already seeded with modern day graphics.

    Story: Blows the story of both Oblivion and Skyrim out of the water. I have nothing wrong to say about the base lore of Morrowind itself, though it irks me that a studio capable of making such a great storyline managed to also release the storyline in Skyrim, an incompetent mess.

    Replayability: Tons. If only I wanted to actually play this game ever again. There's so much to do, so much to see. If only they pulled some effort away from the quest design to tune up the combat and base mechanics, for if the team that worked on the quests worked on that, chances are I wouldn't be here, frustrated with how people find this game so good.    … Expand

There is a bit flaw in here meaning you cant change your class mid game meaning you have to start over to build a new class. If you wanted to be a mage you had to train your mage skills meaning you couldnt become arch mage just by slashing your enemies.
    5. Enemies: one of the most original and cool enemies you will see in a game.
    6. And the best of all was the freedom, is soon is you are set free you can do anything you want you can go straight up go kill vivec a npc essential to the main quest but who cares like any body can stop you, thats what i call freedom.    … Expand

And even still has a nice graphics engine

    Great game. Its just a little outdated. Worst of the 3 modern games because of its combat and Graphics. We are not rating mods. But that is easily fixed with them. As a base game the game is overwhelmingly brown and not pleasing. But the story and the Alien world of Vvardenfell and its great DLCs in Morrowind and Solstheim more than make up for its flaws. Sadly however an 8 out of 10.

They are so "open" to crossover, that it doesn't feel there is much difference in choosing one or the other. And then there are so many tweaks you can buy, that characters have no distinctive flair.

Which also makes this game a great money pit for players into building mega-characters.
    But the deal-breaker for me was that, something about the visuals caused me vertigo. No matter the adjustments I did. Tried switching perspective, reducing head-bob, and just about any other recommended tweak. I couldn't play for more than 45 minutes without getting nausea. The funny thing is that a friend also got vertigo from the game, but playing it in a console (PS). I looked around and vertigo seems to be an issue for some people.
    So, no, I wouldn't recommend this game.    … Expand

    Skyrim was a game like no other and I thought nothing would beat it as my favorite in the series. So after finishing Skyrim, I began to look for something that's along the same lines as the game. I got intrigued by the older Elder Scrolls games because of all the praises I've heard and seen from them, especially Morrowind and Oblivion. I decided to play Morrowind first because a ton ofSkyrim was a game like no other and I thought nothing would beat it as my favorite in the series. So after finishing Skyrim, I began to look for something that's along the same lines as the game. I got intrigued by the older Elder Scrolls games because of all the praises I've heard and seen from them, especially Morrowind and Oblivion. I decided to play Morrowind first because a ton of people in the fandom objectively thinks that Morrowind has the best story. As a gamer who treasures and regards great storytelling as top priority in video games, it was inevitable for me to begin here, and what a game it was. Story-wise, it's leagues better than Skyrim. Having to talk to NPCs about Morrowind's lore which contributes a ton to Morrowind's phenomenal world-building, and being able to get information about the current state situations of the land has never been this essential in a video game I've personally experienced. The conflicts that transpired the resurrection of evil being on a mission to cleanse its lands of colonials and false gods, and to return the Dunmer race to its former glory. The narrative went deeper and deeper as you progress through the game's long story and it truly fascinated me. It also has surprisingly great dialogue, which was pretty damn weird for Bethesda-developed games because most of the games they make seem to have lackluster dialogue options. The characters were interesting. Caius Cosades stuck with me because of his full display of kindness and respect towards the main character, and he's such a bro. I missed him dearly when he left and returned for Cyrodiil. The main villain, Dagoth Ur, was one hell of a driving force. He's the reawakened evil that wants the best for his Dunmer (Dark Elven) people. All the things he desires seem to suggest that it's for the better, but with all the terrible things he has cast upon his beloved homeland, one of which is by having continuous blight storms that cause people to fall ill and die, or turn into deformed creatures is truly horrible, which throws every convincing reason he uttered from his mouth a lot less believable. The factions had very engaging histories. The Houses being one of the most absorbing factions I've ever witnessed. After saving Morrowind, you definitely feel beloved by the people that inhabit the land because they start to praise and acknowledge you for what you have done for Morrowind, which Skyrim lacked and is one of the main criticisms that the game gets. The gameplay, especially the combat, is quite conflicting. It's great when you know what you're doing, and Morrowind has a much deeper combat and leveling system compared to Skyrim, but it isn't polished and is quite dated. The game mechanics are tough to sell for newer players who want to enjoy Morrowind, which makes the game a lot less accessible and a lot less fun, thus making the players develop the inability to appreciate the full capacity of what the game offers. Morrowind isn't by no means perfect though. One of my problems with this game is how it becomes tedious later on. Some quests dragged on when you don't know where you're going or what you're doing, especially the Hortator and Nerevarine quest in the main questline. Another thing is how vague the NPCs are when pointing out directions, especially if the place is far from the place where you've taken the quest. I've played Zelda games, and despite being very non-linear I knew where I was going and what I'm supposed to do. Maybe because Morrowind is massive as heck compared to Zelda games (excluding BotW), which makes it a lot harder to navigate. I got stuck for hours trying to find the entry to Vemynal alone, not to mention the times where I needed to complete tasks from the Urshilaku camp. With all the things I've wanted to say done, Morrowind has now reached the top of my favorite Bethesda games, and my favorite Elder Scrolls entry in the long-running franchise despite the glaring flaws it has. 9/10, wealth beyond measure outlander!… Expand

Morrowind's mushroomy world is probably the most unique among all the Elder Scrolls games. Back in the day, Morrowwind's world felt so huge and varied because we didn't have fast travel or objective marks; finding secrets on your own and solving mysterious felt more satisfying. Although later titles benefit from triple A voice acting and audio, Morrowwind's dialogs are some of the best i've seen in any RPG ever.
    Morrowind's story is weaker than Oblivion and Skyrim but the presentation is done to near-perfection; there's no denying that. Bethesda was able to capture the feel of a decaying world with each detail and soundtrack. Even the opening piece by Jeremy Soule is the best among all the Elder Scrolls titles. I highly recommend playing Morrowwind before going into Oblivion or Skyrim as you can see the basic formula that this game established for all the later bethesda game studios titles.    … Expand

    Morrowwind is not as established as Skyrim in the industry but it is definitely the best elder scrolls experience out there, Skyrim had the chance to earn that label but Morrowwind's was certainly wider across the games.

It is a basically unplayable mess, you move so slowly that is totally shatters any immersion or fun. The writing, unironically, is some of the worst I have seen in a long time. It is just flat dialogue with no flavour, and reads more like wikipedia articles than actual human speech. This is very damaging to immersion in the world and care for the characters, which can be explained in this quote from Bahktin, "dialogue is the single adequate form for verbally expressing authentic human life, in it, a person participates wholly and throughout his whole life: with his eyes, lips, hands, soul, spirit, with his whole body and deeds. He invests into the dialogue fabric of human life, into the world symposium", this quote is very true, for dialogue is the ultimate in self-expression of one's identity, ideals, and convictions. Therefore, poorly written dialogue can be greatly damaging to the quality and relatability of the characters involved, and, as a result, the story as a whole. It is just bad and lack any sense of connection one can feel with the world. And the lore is made extremely dull for a lack of releveance, mixed in with it being poorly written to begin with. Gameplay is dull and boring, both having dull and immersion breaking movement speed, the UI being clunky, ugly, and hard to actually use. The graphics were dreadful even for its time. Looks like its from mid-Nineties. It is simply slashing and hoping you actually manage to hit. And dying many a time do to how the game is not based on skill, but pure luck, and nothing else. You win through being lucky and having good items, not through any form of skill or strategy like many I have seen claim it to be. It is also extremely unoriginal in its lore. With basically no original ideas at all. Not even an original way of implementing ideas, it is just, dull and lifeless. Taken from far better and more interesting works. Tonal Magic, Elves, Dwarves, the structure of Tamriel-Oblivion-Aetherius is just Ea-Void-Timeless Halls, from Tolkien. Dark Elves from DnD, it is just, every single feature of it, even those that seem unique, were directly ripped from somewhere else. Without even an attempt to make it new or unique. The lore also very rarely ties into the world you see, and it only does Telling, amd actively avoids Showing, when one should do more showing than telling, to paraphrase Anton Chekov, "don't tell me the moon is shining, show me the glint of light in broke glass", or as said by Ernest Hemingway, "If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about, he may omit things that he knows ans the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an iceberg is due ti only one-eighth of it being above water", that is to say, it is mot only unnecessary to explain everything, but it also is poor writing to do big swathes of exposition, instead of respecting the player/reader enough to *show* them that information through various aspects. And being able to see the effects of lore, tends to make it less of a bore, and also increases retention od the information shared. And it has no Osttaneiniye, it doesn't five you a different way to view the world you see. Nor does it give one a better understanding of the events. All it does it just say a random assortment of poorly thought out ideas which it gives us no reason to care about. It simply expects people to inherently care about distant, and irrelevant events or peoples that you do not ever see come to relevance or tie into the world you experience. It is also communicated in a way that purposely obsfucates what it is trying to say, attempting to mimick the poetic style of religious texts, without actually understanding the process behind said style, and the way in which it still manages to communicate information effectively. Those who talk about how good the writing is are speaking utter bushwah, and need to actually read novels to see how the writing is actually below average, and barely functions. But this is atound all I can say jn this post. I do not hate people for liking the game, I just hate the game and am annoyed at how it is praised as a masterpiece of writing, when the writing is deeply and fundamentally flawed and poorly done; and the gameplay and graphics are also atrocious, thus cannot save its bad writing.… Expand

The characters aren't totally memorable, but we all have our favourites - and we all weep when the time comes to say goodbye to Caius Cosades. The quests are clever, usually with many options for completion, and the main questline is surprisingly engaging for an Elder Scrolls game (I only know one person who ever finished Skyrim's main quest, and you probably do too) and the methods of storytelling - with unreliable, conflicting narrators - make the world feel more alive than it has any right to be, with everyone looking like paper-craft dolls hung on wire frames.

    Morrowind looks, and plays, like garbage - even at the time, it was janky - but don't let that deter you from experiencing one of the most unique and memorable fantasy worlds in gaming. After all, it's part of the fun.    … Expand

    2.I think the story they didnt showed it in good visually but I can felt the story is legendary didnt finished the game bro played 11+ hours who know how big is this game
    3.The game have lots of cool sidequest and mission have variety of tomb have awesome ghost but the gfx :(

    The reason I am hating this game and the way why it should not recommended
    1.The game is freaking old
    2.The conversation system died no conversation just you have to read bunch of paragraph and essay finding the mission and paths and story :(
    3.there is no fast travel there is alien boat called strider who can passage or transport maybe don't wanna talk about that
    4.The movement system felt like 1 fps if the movement system was ok and full resoulation system was ok I could play the game half but they failed
    5.Gfx is sick I thought witcher 1 is way worse now I can tell witcher 1 is way next gen and fun I want to play witcher 1 again and having fun but this died on 2020 died rip

    there is a option in morrowind called "advice'' here is my advice

    My advice:- come on man don't be greedy make a remake and bring this game as a 2020 way people will love bethesda this legendary game should remove from steam like legendary game arnea and daggerfall this game should sealed as legend not bully by steam user in 2020 so if new user say what should we do there is a new version of morrowind in the elder scroll online you guyz should check it out its cool

    You just get shat out into this MASSIVE, hostile world. There is no tutorial or direction whatsoever. Many people seem to enjoy this, but I don't. As someone else wrote, the presentation just does not seem thought out at all. Right from the start you can read dozes of books (which are WAY too long-winded), buy hundreds of spells and items, go anywhere you want, and talk to anyone you want (which doesn't matter that much because pretty much all the NPCs seem to hate you). Sounds like the ultimate freedom, right? But you are not being given any kind of reference system for what is important or beneficial, which just made me feel totally lost.

    The whole world is almost entirely grey and brown and filled with hostile characters and weird, disgusting bugs. How anyone could call this beautiful is completely beyond me. Just take the capital for example. It is impossible not to get lost here because everything just looks the same (and not very appealing at that).

    This game lacks character and soul. I'll still give it two points for its massive scope. But it is not fun and completely devoid of charm.    … Expand

    Great Action RPG. Best in this genre.
    Modding abilities is a great (and may be main ) plus.

    One of the most boring games i have ever played, just a stupid battle mechanic and the interface is just awful. In the same line, the side quests just seem like a expansion of the main quest and in 10-20 hours you just get bored and uninstall it

    Best Elder scrolls game, While it may be outdated the core rpg gameplay of it is simply brilliant.
    The game has a very deep rpg system with so much to do.
    Also unlike other Elder scrolls game this one has good story.

    The best Elder scrolls game, Enchanting is super fun in it.

    10/10

    I dont enjoy playing this at all, while I cant admit the lore is rich and cool, playing the game itself just isn't fun. The exploration gets boring after a minute, the combat is unbearing outdated, and its really ugly.

People keep praising it for how hand crafted it is, but the average quest is so mundane, I very much prefer the radiant quests from Skyrim. The skill system, combat, leveling, inventory management, and just about every other system is clunky, and nothing is smooth. Every time I bring this up, people suggest graphics mods, even though the graphics are just about the only thing I don't have a problem with.… Expand

    Since everyone ( including myself ) has heaps of praise for the game I will focus only on the more annoying side. First of all you should definitely get mods ( graphics enhancing, bug fixing etc. ). Secondly, there is not fast travel in morrowind from the map, if you want to get somewhere you gotta find a silt strider, go through a mages guild portal or a boat and have to pay them too ofSince everyone ( including myself ) has heaps of praise for the game I will focus only on the more annoying side. First of all you should definitely get mods ( graphics enhancing, bug fixing etc. ). Secondly, there is not fast travel in morrowind from the map, if you want to get somewhere you gotta find a silt strider, go through a mages guild portal or a boat and have to pay them too of course. So when youre stuck somewhere in the wilderness, you really are stuck. The magic system is a bit janky too but thats about it… Expand

    There's no any other word to describe this game than: Awesome. As the best RPG ever.
    Morrowind it's awesome, it's fantastic, and you can't deny it.

    J'ai jamais réussi à dépasser le chapitre d'introduction de ce jeu, l'espèce de prologue, l'un des plus laborieux qu'il m'ait été donné d'expérimenter soit dit en passant; que ce soit sur la version Xbox ou PC.

    Du coup, je me suis demandé si c'était bien un jeu Bethesda, car même dans le moyen Oblivion, j'avais bien tenu entre 30 et 40h avant de craquer d'ennui.

    Du coup, je me suis demandé si c'était bien un jeu Bethesda, car même dans le moyen Oblivion, j'avais bien tenu entre 30 et 40h avant de craquer d'ennui. Il faut qu'une fois qu'on est lâché dans la nature, la lourdeur de Morrowind est sans commune mesure : là où on doit se rendre, c'est très loin et sur le chemin, la moindre bêbête te refait le portrait aussi sec.

    Evidemment, le jeu est vieux et graphiquement il pique les yeux, même sur la version PC mais les combats -horribles- et l'interface générale font partie de cette lourdeur de plomb qui plombe le jeu dès le début. Le monde des Elder Scrolls est connu pour son caractère tiédasse et générique mais il ne m'a jamais paru aussi mou et fade que dans ce Morrowind.

    Je me dis de temps à autre que je devrais retenter le machin -au moins avec un mod sur PC qui rehausse un peu cette baraque en ruines- mais rien que d'y penser, je me recroqueville à l'avance en cherchant l'issue de secours. Non, c'est définitivement trop naze en fait.    … Expand

    For it's time, this game was unbelievable. A huge map to explore and an endless variety of weapons to find and armour to upgrade. Better than Skyrim, except graphics obviously.

    One of the best RPGs ever made. I spent countless hours playing it and so did most of my friends. Objectively Morrowind is far from perfect, but for me it is solid 10 out of 10.

    One of those games that just visually takes your breath away. It has some of the most detailed, and well realistically rendered environments and characters ever seen in a computer game.

    The Elder Scrolls tech support forum is overflowing with user complaints about compatibility issues. At any rate, this is still the biggest, deepest, most detailed RPG to hit the PC since Daggerfall, and for that, earns high marks.
