Morrowind - Gamespy's 21st most overrated game

Morrowind joins NWN on Gamespy's overrated list in 21st place, although I can't say that I recall Morrowind being hyped more than NWN. Here's a snip:
After about 20 or so hours, (probably longer than many reviewers got to play before banging out a story to beat a deadline), the gameplay shortcomings were finally becoming obvious. The super-simplistic combat was a step down from Daggerfall's already sparse system. And my character had become a virtual god, so very little could even faze him in the slightest. Worse, every town seemed to be the same. They'd look different, sure, but 99% of the inhabitants would recite the same old boring lines, over and over again. I eventually just gave up on the uninteresting storyline and focused on finding the coolest loot, but that was clearly the beginning of the end. After a bit of that I could no longer muster up the gumption to double-click on the Morrowind icon, and so the game currently wastes space on my hard drive as I contemplate uninstalling it.
