It’s been five long years since The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall dazzled us with its incredibly realistic fantasy world, and hopes have been high that its sequel, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, can somehow top that. “In most role-playing games, you gain experience (and thus improve your abilities) mostly by killing stuff or solving quests. In Morrowind, you gain levels by practicing your character’s main skills. But in Morrowind, if you play as a thief, then you gain levels by thieving. Game Informer’s Kristian Brogger called Morrowind a “triumph” and “one of the most in-depth and cerebral role-playing games I’ve ever had the pleasure of playing” in a 9/10 review.
