Video Game Reviews of The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind Game of the Year Edition
Customer Review: STAY AWAY if you want to have a LIFE
Summary: 4 Stars
The wide range of options will create a life inside of a life.
If the game is not enough, it is the MODS. You can spend hours perusing the mods that do everything from bug fixing the game(yes there are a few quests and other things that just may not/ will not work right hence the "unofficial Morrowind patch,") to mods that make ones life easier- "better herbilism mod" that removes plants once they are examined (so you don't keep reexploring the same empty plant over and over again) to a sappy romance with babies and even graphic adult addon lovemaking mod!
You can spend many days and weeks exploring these mods (there are at least THOUSANDS) installing and reordering and tweaking and reloading not ever leave the town of Seyda Neen (the first blurb of a burg on the map).
And if that's not enough, there is a game editor included that allows one to make their own mods, or perhaps more importantly, modify someone elses mod to your own tastes. The scripts and programming of this editor and utilities easily available elsewhere also allow one to add models and programe creatures and other characters from outside sources into the game. If you learn everything about this editor and addon utilities, by the time you are done you can work for one of the great 3d animation houses somewhere. Infact, I suspect the vast majority of modmakers never finished the game, they got going on this...
Can I recommend this game? Yes no, if you want a life and have bills to pay, people to see , then beware, but at least I think its safer than maybe some of the online games which websites are dedicated for "addiction recovery."
I give it a 4 for fun and because to make some tasks less tedious such as the plants, as mentioned above, a mod is needed (extra work required). Or maybe I'm swinging and hit a companion by accident and suddenly they are whaling away at me--ugh reload last save. Alot of time can be spent looking at that reload screen. Fun otherwise.
I give it a 4 overall because once again the access to mods is required to remove some of the bugs or an inadvertant action on the players part (oops, killed him by mistake) some quests become unaccomplishable.
But I give it 6 stars (bonus star) for flexibility to do almost anything you want with it.
Customer Review: great game

Bought this for 18 year old son. He said he loves it. You are able to do alot of stuff with it (I can't remember all he said-mumbo jumbo to me)Customer Review: Morrowind
Summary: 4 Stars
This game is a second ELDER SCROLLS game for me. My first was Oblivion. I was disappointed in the graphics as I was accustomed to the OBLIVION graphics. However, because this game was a precursor to OBLIVION and the graphics engine was not as sophisticated as the later engine, the graphics from 2002 are still acceptable. Now that I have experienced OBLIVION I would want the new graphics in everything.
Customer Review: Very Nice

Summary: 5 Stars
Buy this game! I bought this game because I wanted Oblivion but my computer cannot handle this. My laptop has an Intel Pentium 4 processer, 256MB ram, Ati Radeon 7500 graphics and runs Morrowind great. If you want to buy Oblivion buy this instead. It is exactly like Oblivion with a little lower end graphics and storyline. The game runs smoothly and plays great. This game is a very well designed opened ended RPG. Buy the game of the year edition, it comes with 2 expansion packs and an unuseful mod making set. I could never make a mod with the construction set.
The land is vast and I spent many hours playing this game. The features are plentiful also. You can move your sword in many different ways and there are many spells to buy. There is all kinds of weapons, amour, and other items available to buy in the game. Fighting is fun and realtiviely simple. This game is easy to learn but takes skill to finish. There are guilds to join in this game like the fighters guild, mages guild, and the thieves guild. This games is not an online game though. There are also lots of quest you may do. In conclusion buy this game!
