Morrowind? Its THE free roaming rpg out there.

I'd say avoid this one like the plague. Bland, boring, and ultimately pointless, even with mods. Nice geography, but that's the only thing going for it.

Oblivion (mods are a must) if you haven't played it. I found it better than Risen and Gothic 3 due to the mods. If you install Quarl's Texture Pack I would say it looks better than those two as well. Also, don't forget to install Francessco's and MMM overhaul mods that adds monsters and static levels to them. www.tesnexus.com has over 10,000 mods to choose from.

I vote for Risen. That is a good game. zomglolcats

Hmm, if you have no issues with older games, how about the first 2 Fallout games?

Quite fun, if a bit dated in terms of interface and so on.

Gothic II is THE choice based/free roaming RPG.

The STALKER series...Start with SoC first with the STALKER 2009 mod...Its sorta like FO3.

I also recommend Risen as well as Gothic III.

I would get Risen before The Witcher (could not get into it at all--lame combat and artificial relationships). Risen has some faults--especially in the latter half (dungeon after dungeon)--but it's worth a playthrough.jedinat
