( Morrowind is played in first person mode. You start the game in the cargo hold of a slave ship. Exploration, character configuration, questing and in-game activities (alchemy, enchanting, pearl-diving, factional conflicts and rewards, etc) are the best qualities of Morrowind, and contribute to the high rating I give it, and which it deserves. It's the first RPG I've played in quite a while that leaves me bleary-eyed and drained at some ungodly hour of the morning, when I'd just discovered that the time for dinner had come and gone. For me, it combines impressive scope, depth of focus, and a vivid, self-referential world culture that doesn't fall back upon AD&D or any other playing system for its content. Both are excellent RPGs, but they couldn't open the floodgates of my imagination and haul me into their respective universes. Though I strongly enjoyed Gothic's dose of attitude and Wizardry 8's great battles, spell system and sheer fun, neither triggered the need in me to indulge in interminable stretches of gameplay. For some while I've wanted something new, something equally obsessive in its own, particular way. But you can only repeat Korgan's inventive obscenities or Jan's barbed whimsy so many times without thinking there must be a newer game on which to waste your life. I've played through the main saga and the add-on more times than I care to acknowledge in public. I'm a dedicated Baldur's Gate II enthusiast.
