User Rating: 8.9 | The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - Game of the Year Edition PC
This game represents the closest I've yet come to the ideal that I had been searching for since I first fell in love with RPGs. I'm an addict of the first-person perspective as I feel it's the only true way to immerse yourself in a game. The sand-box approach of a truly open-ended world to explore and do with as you please made this game irresistable to me for the longest time. The graphics, while now dated, were at least an order of magnitude better than the previous daggerfall, which I had greatly enjoyed also. As First-person shooters have become better and better at plot, I've gravitated toward them more and more, but I'm still waiting for something new to take the Morrowind crown and once again have me chasing levels.
