The ship rocked from side to side, and the wind howled outside the window. Lying in this hammock, I thought about whether I would see my native Vvardenfell ... a couple of times it seemed to me that the ship was about to capsize, and my little journey in shackles would end in this sea!
]Will my life end when the Last Sun rises tomorrow?
Only 9 Gods and the Empire know the answer to this question!

When I talk about Morrowind, I'm talking about the game that won my heart and gave me the love of the RPG genre!
I can say with confidence - after many 10-20 years of playing different RPGs - that Morrowind not only remained in my heart as a great and pure love, but also became the best RPG in the entire existence of this genre!


The success of a good RPG is storytelling! After all, the story that we see on the screen of our monitors, we read like a book, and because of how versatile and rich it will be, it will depend - whether we want to reread it again and again even after many years! I can really say that the plot of Morrowind is an amazing story that you will want to re-read many times and replay over and over again to find out all the possibilities, subtleties and trifles that we might not have noticed when we first read it - passing the game! Even after 15-20 years, we will remember the detective story, where we not only learned the secrets and arcana of this World and unraveled the tangle of intrigues, but also assumed the role of the savior of these Lands from the ancient cult and ancient Gods who wanted to destroy our World.

Many games that call themselves RPG forget that this system must be quite large and to a certain extent difficult for the player, so that the study of this whole system is like learning mathematics from the multiplication table to matrices and other more level elements - algorithms that will add up to a single picture of the existence of this virtual world!
You will get the opportunity to make a character level 100, pump all skills to level 100, learn hundreds of new spells and abilities and create 1000 types of weapons, scrolls, potions, giving you the opportunity to create your own unique character leveling system and unique tactics of life and victory against evil!

I managed to get level 105 in one of my playthroughs, can you do the same? :)

I would like to separately note this wonderful romantic world in which you just want to live!
Even when you reach your maximum level in the game and complete all tasks: main and side quests.
There are very few games that have such a rich and saturated world, filled with many small details that fascinate you and imbue you with the magic that exists in our real world, but which we simply do not notice due to the fact that we rarely look at the stars above our heads!

When the game appeared, I was very delighted with this graphics, which I saw on the screen of my 17-inch monitor, and then on the screen of the 19-inch monitor, which I bought a little later (when I played the game for the second time). Even when I ran this game on the formats of the new 28 inch 4K monitor, I saw the same beautiful picture that I saw many years ago! At the same time, I understand that these are graphics - the game does not give a widescreen resolution, since it is old, like good wine, but over the years it gets better and is filled with a large bouquet of flavors, notes of nostalgia for my soul!

This game has amazing gentle music that will caress your ear throughout the entire gameplay!
Even when you're done playing this game, you'll want to download the album of this music and use it as a divine serenade before bed!
When you have children (or maybe they already have), then you will want to put this music as a lullaby for them, so that they can feel the taste of beautiful and high art from childhood!

This is the saddest part of all that I wrote above, but I can't help but write about it!
Yes, there are many bugs in the game, it's pointless to describe all of them, but I want to say that some of them add more hardcore to the passing of the game!
As an example - my favorite bug - there is a destroyed Daedra statue that asks you to restore it, and in return you can get a unique Golden Sword, the most powerful sword in the game!
The whole point is that from the beginning of the game, a timer starts, and if you do not have time to accumulate 5.000 gold in the first 2 weeks and still get a couple of rare elements (and this is very difficult to do), and then start restoring this statue with the help of a master sculptor , then you just risk not getting this wonderful sword!
That is, if you play this game and do not do everything quickly enough in 2 weeks, then, of course, you can restore this statue, it will talk to you, but it will not give you this sword! This is just a bug that was made by the developers and which, most likely, cannot be fixed, probably after tens of years. And there are a lot of such bugs in the game. Studying every bug and every subtlety of the game mechanics gives you more hardcore in terms of passing the game than any difficulty level that you will increase in the game!
This is the unique game in which bugs make the game not worse, but better many times over, and therefore it becomes one of the best RPGs for a real hardcore RPG gamer!
