IGN.PC has done a review of Morrowind, and not surprisingly a positive one. They rate the game 9.4/10 - and here's what the author of the (very well written) review has to say about his rating:
There are bound to be people who read the review and rating I've given Morrowind and say to themselves, Ah-ha, yet another toadying hack salivating before the boots of his master. So I should make clear that although I've been reviewing a variety of computer software and hardware since 1986, I've never betrayed my opinions on a product by printing something different at the behest of an editor or a software company. In fact, I once persisted in giving a thumbs-down to a game despite the general opinion that it was pretty good. I gave my reasons, stuck with them and can now look into a mirror every morning without seeing the rear-end of a horse staring back.
I mention this only to provide some perspective; when I give a game a 9.4, it's because I believe that game deserves an "A" on its report card. Morrowind isn't perfect and its system requirements are huge; but its accomplishments outweigh any reservations, in my opinion. It isn't for everybody, but then what game is? This one shows more planning, talent (aesthetic, programming, and design) and creative vision than anything I've played in a very long time. And I'll stand by those words. |
