Morrowind: A game I dislike by a company I hate
I' ve got to agree with DATD. I disliked Morrowind from the minute I started it. Yes it got good idea's, yes it was grafical very OK, yes the story and the history were great BUT it dind't have what I discribe as "THE FEEL". <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> has "THE FEEL", "THE FEEL" stopped me from ending Morrowind 3 quests from the end.
And I also didn't like the skill system => I want to be a master of the spear before using a spear. And morrowind had no humor. If you stole something from someone you coulnd't sell it to that person <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />. Yes I know realistic but not fun.
Believe it or not but I tought Ultima 9 was more fun than Morrowind.
I really hope that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/div.gif" alt="" /> 2 in 3D will have "THE FEEL".
With <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" /> it is almost certain that it has "THE FEEL"
Exactly. The mysterious "Feel" lacks in Morrowind.
If I evaluate Morrowind:
Graphics: OK
Music: I don't really care but it's mediocre
Voices: None (some pro reviewer complained about voice acting in DD: mind you, in MW there was none [almost])
Gameplay: Fine
Story: Interesting enough.
Everything seems in order but I simply cannot play it. I don't HATE morrowind. I dislike Betseda, yes, but I do not hate Morrowind.
I don't really dislike the skill system: in Quest for Glory there was a common system and I love it.
Jack, you are not born with the spear mastery, you need to learn it ;0).
