Video Game Reviews of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind Game of the Year Edition
Customer Review: Eldar Scrolls: Morrowind
Summary: 4 Stars
The Morrowind Game of the Year Edition of Eldar Scrolls 3 was very easy to install and start playing. Having first play Oblivion and then went back to ES3 some of the playability features around interacting with the world around you was disappointing but a lot of the functionality was there and the universe was huge. I had many hours just exploring. If I had one beef it was around the alchemey and making potions, I have trouble keeping track of all the items and how they went together, apart from keeping separate list which I was not prepared to do.
Overall a very enjoyable game with no bugs and easy to pick up and go.
Customer Review: bad controls left me bored the first night
Summary: 2 Stars
sorry, i know this is suppose to be a great game...but i couldn't get into it at all. combat was terrible, just atrocious. the quests were ok, from what i did...there wasn't much direction though so it was a lot of guess work, and find the hiding npc or item...which wasn't fun when you found out your missing an item, with no leads at all as to where that item might be located. in a world as big as elder scrolls(good thing), finding something with no idea as to where it is(very bad thing) in a huge world, just isn't good at all.Customer Review: still great for older cpu's
Summary: 4 Stars
Morrowind is still a grat game for older, less graphically capbable machines. In addition, you benefit from years of modding experience in order to enhance the game, a very sensible price for the game and two expansions, and a game where most, if not all the problems are known and patched.
For a casual gamer...this game is still awesome.
Customer Review: It's like Phantasy Star Online..... only it's a single player game.
Summary: 5 Stars
Elder Scrolls 3 Morrowind is a really fun game. It's like an MMORPG (because of it's character creation and having to put on whatever you want on your character and, for the PC version only, making your own race weapons and areas.), but it's a single player game, so there is really no online play. Like I said before, this version (the PC version) allows you to create your own race, so you don't have to pick a default race; Your own classes, custom weapons (I don't know 100% for sure if you can make your own weapons from scratch, but you can take an existing sword copy that file of the original sword and make a new sword.), Make your own little areas in the game, and the list can go on and on. One thing about the whole creation thing is that it's for more ADVANCE COMPUTER PLAYERS who have lots of experience on computer games, so if you aren't computer crazy, don't use the Construction disc; or if you aren't ready just yet, just play the game, then play around with the program (like I did) and you will eventually find out it's easy.
Now for the actual game itself, you create your own character, do this and that to be free and then go on a bunch of crazy quests. You can either plan to destroy everything in it's path or just do what people tell you to do. The game, like I said, is like a MMORPG for single players. The world is ungodly massive and, unless you plan to spend every waking moment of your life playing this game, probably will take a long time to beat the game and every little side quest and whatever else that this game has to offer. This also includes Tribunal and Bloodmoon expansions, but because I bought this package and had to install it with Morrowind right away, I didn't really notice that everything on all 3 discs were in the game when I was playing it (like the little continent on the upper left hand corner of the world, from the world map, was from the Bloodmoon disc, so if I didn't install that disc, the game wouldn't have that continent).
So I really recommend this getting this game because it's really fun and If you don't like paying bills for MMORPGs (which by the way is Multiplayer Online RPGs) like me, then this is the next best thing to get that craving of MMORPG madness put to rest. If, however, you have enough requirements on your computer, then get the Oblivion game (I don't know if that has some of the things that this game has to offer like race creation). If not this game is worth every little penny you bought it for. I really would recommend that you get this version because of the Construction disc and the expansions, but if you do not have a gaming computer, then just get the Xbox version (I don't care which one it is) or If you have a Xbox 360 or a good PC, then get the 4th game Oblivion (check to see if the PC version has a construction disc or something similar that you can create your own stuff, If not get this game instead or , you know what, you just make your own decision about that because I don't have Oblivion so I can't help you compare this with that game)
Customer Review: Wow
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought Morrowind for the XBox when it first came out. I almost all of my time playing this game for at least 3 months. When the Game of the Year Edition came out I HAD to get it. When I left for college I bought it for my PC.
Morrowind, like the other Elder Scrolls games, greatest strength lies in how open-ended it is. You can do do and be almost anything you want in this game. Once I beat it, I had to start over to try a different kind of character, a different race, different stats and different skills. I can think of no other game with as much replay value as an Elder Scrolls game.
If you do get this game, you have to get it for the PC. The absolute best part of the game is that the construction set is packed with it. So, if you somehow run out of things to do in the game you can make your own mod, or download thousands, maybe millions off of the internet to play. Morrowind was my absolute favorite game for the longest time it took quit a few years and Quite possibly the release of Oblivion, its sequal for any game to surpass it.
