Great Game!
User Rating: 9.2 | The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - Game of the Year Edition XBOX
The 3rd installment in he Elder Scrolls Series is revolutionary, perhaps, the only thing better is it's sequal: Oblivion... However if You cannot afford an Xbox 360 or your PC is too slow to handle the excellent graphics of Oblivion, Morrowind is an excellent game to tide you over. The gameplay is very intense, you can become a noble-warrior who saves the town from the bandits, perhaps, the agile thief sneaking around the duke's manor, or the sorcerer who summons a horde of undead creatures to destroy the town. The amount of possibilities will blow your mind. You can join a number of faction and clans ranging from: The agents of the Blades, to the Imperial legion, or do you prefer a slower paced profession in the Mages guild or one of the great houses. The only thing that gives the gameplay a 9 and not a 10 is no online play! It would of been great to meet other people inside of the virtual world of morrowind. With online play the possibilities could have been endless...The combat system also let the gameplay down, it is just a simple hack and slash mechanism, however combat is not the most important part of the game.
The graphics were good at the time but now have been beaten by the release of the Xbox 360.
As soon as you start you are greeted to a relaxing, tranquil tune in the background, however, the soundtrack just keeps on looping around, so theres never anything new with the soundtrack unless you download a mod or something.
Now for value...if i could rate it any higher than ten it would be 20/10. It is well worth the price of £20 to £30.
I don't know what reviewers tilt is so i just put it on 9 to get the overall rating to what it should be.
Overall morrowind is a very good game, that can be improved by the 2 expansion packs: BloodMoon and Tribunal, BloodMoon unlocks a new island called Solstheim and a new main quest and Tribunal unlocks the Capital city of Mournhold and a new storyline.
An Excellent Game
