The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Game of the Year Edition
Review by Mutaku Son
"Morrowind - Good game, with some problems."
Hello reader, I think it’s safe to assume that you are here to see if Elder scrolls III: GOTY or even the original. Well I hope this review will help you. This game is an RPG were you can do anything you want, be evil, good, or just be alone if you want. It has obvious limits off course but still it’s a great game
Game play 6/10
Ok, so the game is a bit glitchy, no wait very glitchy. The game has a tendency to freeze on you and so you want to safe a lot. The major drawback in my opinion, however, is that the fighting is really boring. They way the game is set up, the fighting should be more action oriented but it isn't, and since you do a lot of fighting in this game, it really hinders the game. The game is very in-depth however and provides a lot of interesting game play. Fighting is an important part and so it brought the score quite a bit.
Story 7/10
Ok so I haven’t beaten the game yet but from the look of it, this game’s story isn't anything special, and its story wasn't why I bought it. Basically you’re a released prisoner and you are sent to morrowind and you do a bunch of missions. The story might get better, I don't know so I just gave the story a 7 out of 10 for now.
Sound 5/10
Ok it’s not so great, its there but its pretty plain. All you hear is ''ughh'' and not much else other than people talking. The music isn't that great either. It’s not bad to the point were you want to break something but it’s not so great that it makes the game better either. Its ok, and its all you need I guess.
Graphics 7/10
Ok, I think they could have improved on the graphics. People tell me it’s because the world is so big and stuff, but still, the graphics are kind of ugly. However the graphics are still good and so it isn't bad. I wished they could have included more armors and clothes but mixing and matching can make some pretty cool looks. So this one won’t hinder your enjoyment of the game.
Replay/Game length 10/10
You can do what you what and you have so many choices you can make. This game you can replay. You got so many things you can do and different ways to try things out. I currently have 2 games running, 1 evil and 1 good, and I really enjoy them both. This game will provide over 100 hours of game play
In conclusion you might want to rent this game and see if it suits your taste, but make sure you make an honest effort to try the game. If you don’t you could be missing out on a really good game. If you like it buy it, personally I think if you like RPGs and the ability to do what you want, you should buy this game. This game isnt for everyone.
I give this game a seven out of 10
7/10
