According to our database this is the first review of Morrowind for the XBox - brought to you by Gamers.com. Two people rating it in a very short review (actually, it's only some persona rantings), one giving a rating of 7.5/10 (saying it would be only for hardcore RPG fans), the other rates it 8.5/10. Here's why the first "reviewer" gave it a lower rating:
Holy hell, am I exhausted. Morrowind's easily the biggest, most hardcore behemoth of an RPG I've ever played. It's so open-ended that you actually feel lost right from your babe-in-the-woods beginning. Once I learned that grilling every villager for info was the key to getting jobs, joining guilds and political factions, eventually establishing an identity and reputation for myself, things came a lot more easily. But between the awkward PC-RPG combat, having to cover a veritable Nebraska of ground to complete even small jobs, and trying to absorb all the prattling of the townsfolk, I can't imagine anyone but the hardest of hardcore appreciating Morrowind. |
