The first 2 hours of stealing peoples shit and walking from town 1 to town 2 was a pretty good primer for the fun I was sure to have but at some point I realized I must start questing if I wanted to level up.

First quest, kill 3 cave rats. Ok good they're starting me off with the easiest possible objective.

I swing my sword INTO the first cave rat about 50 times (an impressive feat) hit it once sometime during the first 5 attempts, and slowly get nibbled to death for no good reason.



My enjoyment of Morrowind began and ended with breaking into houses. Past that it was lots of walking and clumsy combat that made System Shock 2 seem like Serious Sam. Plus the breaking into houses portions still wasn't nearly as fun as it was in Thief.


I think people who love Morrowind want so badly to play around in a fully realized virtual RPG world that they blind themselves to the fact that this game is a slower paced System Shock 2 where instead of collecting cyber modules to upgrade your stats towards competent, you tape down the jump key for 5 hours to max out your acrobatics skill or some crap.
