Morrowind was released with a decent amount of hype and fanfare, and it easily lives up to most of what everyone has heard about the game.
Morrowind does have a bit of a limited number of graphics tweaks and features to mess with, as the only easy ways to increase performance on lower-end systems are to change to lower resolution video modes or reduce drawing distance.
Morrowind's game interface is fairly intuitive, and since the game is a bit of a hybrid of RPG and action games, the interface pretty much has to be slick.

 The Entertainment Depot - PC / Mac / Console Gaming : PC - Reviews - The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
As a result, Morrowind enables your character to level up by doing what he or she does best, be it stealing, casting magic, or killing monsters - or, alternatively, by purchasing skill training from various individuals located in various guilds and across the land.
However, it should be noted from the outset that Morrowind's scope is drastically different from its predecessors; in fact, a number of changes have been made to the series' core gameplay, most of which change the overall experience considerably - some for the better, some for the worse.
The switch from limitless quests and terrain to a finite (though still absolutely enormous) amount is a bit jarring after six years of living with Daggerfall's charms, but once you get used to the changes, you come to appreciate them and enjoy them every bit as much as you did their predecessor.

 Four Fat Chicks -- Morrowind Review
Morrowind is a giant question mark—you're fed tidbits of the story and overall arc of the game as you go along.
Also, though Morrowind is already immersive in the extreme, I find myself wistfully picturing what it would be like to hear thunder rumble outside while I browsed the shelves at a bookstore or to watch the city guard on night patrol from my hotel room window.
The bestiary of Vvardenfell fits in with the overall clime of the place—there are plenty of repulsive insects and slime-dribbling creepy crawlies that occupy the sometimes marshy, sometimes dust-choked geography of the island.

 The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind - Review
Morrowind's battle system is fully real-time, every action you make is because your finger pressed one or another button.
The game's story is interesting, with a whole world of unique history and a mysterious plot line, the game is sure to hold the interest of player's finding their way through the main game (yes, there is a main storyline, despite the fact that the game is made up primarily by side-quests).
In Morrowind, the story unfolds in a much more discreet manner, with more of a dungeon-crawl feel for a lot of the quests.

Morrowinds still a cool game, just don't expect any of the hundereds of quests to be top notch.

Morrowind succeeds by creating a game that is uncompromising in its vision - it may not be for everyone, but it accomplishes what it sets out to do-allow the possibility to play the game any way you choose.
Morrowind starts slowly; the player is brutally deposited nearly penniless and defenseless in the small coastal town of Seyda Neen.
But if you consider the nature of Morrowind, the type of RPG that it strives to be, you realize that not knowing is the entire point.

Finally, thanks to the Morrowind Community for their recommendations, and especially its modders that constantly thrill and amaze me with their talent and ingenuity.
Most creatures are based on existing Morrowind Creatures just retextured, but there are a few new meshes so mod size is small compared to other creature mods.
Furthermore Green Morrowind is part of a WIP called "A Tale of Twelve Houses" (along with Leafy/Forested Morrowind and the New Molag Mar/Khuul below) which takes place 1000 years in the future, so it's not purist friendly.

There were also two minor additions to the TES worlds after Daggerfall, namely Battlespire in 1997 and Redguard in 1998, but fans continued to hunger for a true, large-scale continuation to the travails of Tamriel.
Moving around Morrowind in either a first-person or third-person view, you'll find that there has never been a world rendered in such exquisite detail.
Skills are classified as either major, minor, or miscellaneous (affecting how quickly they improve), so as a mage you can certainly wear heavy armour without taking a hit to your casting ability, but Heavy Armour may fall under miscellaneous skills and consequently take longer to level up.

We took it out for a spin to see how things were moving along and found that while things are definitely looking positive from a role-playing gameplay perspective, there's still a bit of work to be done.
Because Morrowind set such high expectations for the look it would present, it might not have impressed me quite as much as it would have otherwise.
