Look, I enjoyed Skyrim, but I miss the days when Bethesda made RPGs

    Morrowind is a good story wrapped in terrible game mechanics. Skyrim is a moderate story wrapped in pretty good game mechanics. I do miss levitation though, even if it negated as many things as it helped.

      Morrowind has excellent game mechanics. It’s just that combat is not one of those excellent mechanics.

        What are the excellent mechanics? It’s not leveling, quest journal, inventory management, stealing from vendors, walking speed being a stat you level, etc.

          It’s absolutely leveling, walking speed being a stat, spell customization, NPC interaction, bartering, quest interconnectivity, and especially, exploring.
