I might pick this up and try it out. I’ve only played Skyrim even though I own Morrowind and Oblivion.

It’s enormous, just don’t expect anything to be going on in the vastness.

Here’s the link to the project for people who don’t want to go through the whole article to find it.
Man…. How much profit do you think that company has made from free labor by now? It’s insane how they’re still praised for this.
Is this worth trying if I really disliked Oblivion and Skyrim? It was mainly the terrible floaty combat that I just couldn’t put up with in them.
I LOVE Daggerfall. I kinda feel like it gets overlooked. Then again, Daggerfall is the game that made me fall in love with CRPGs. I enjoyed others before it, but Daggerfall became an obsession. I went back and replayed Arena after having had a tepid experience with it the first time around and found it a much better experience. It’s not perfect by any means, but it firmly established Elder Scrolls at the top of my favorite series.
Reminds me of a friend who plays with two custom spells on quickslots the first chance he gets to make them. The first he calls “JUMP GOD” and the second is “I HATE FALL DAMAGE” with 2-300 points in jump for 1s and a couple seconds of feather fall, respectively.
Who needs fast travel?
OK - I’ve given it a fair shake and I can definitely say that this game lacks the magic of later games. Exploration is repetitive at best and an outright nuisance at worst, and that is what I loved the most about 3, 4, and 5. I took on a quest to snag some Saints Hair from the mages guild and was treated to the windows maze screensaver that extended over 3 tilesets and had SO MANY ingredients… but only after 6 days of delving nearly identical hallways did I find the hair, and to top it all off, the travel times disqualified me from even completing the quest. The next quest was a mission to track down a serial killer, which meant using the eyeball tool to check every single house in a city bigger than every capital in skyrim combined and chatting up bretons with answers like “What you seek may be north, no west, no east” and “what have khajiit done for me lately”. Doing it once wasn’t enough, though - I had to do this exact same task 3 times until an ordinary nightblade appears. Oh, and if I didn’t do that immediately, the quest would have failed in only 2 days.
This was probably a fun toy when it came out, but i cannot imagine playing it all the way through.
