A new review of Morrowind has been posted at Armchair Empire. The review is another positive one, with a rating of 9.4/10. In the last paragraph, the author notes some stability problems with the game and hopes that they will be addressed in a patch (which is in the making, but no release date for it yet):
All is not well with Morrowind, however. Running it on the aforementioned system in Windows XP, I had a number of occasions that the game shut down and kicked me back to the desktop. Worse, on three occasions, my system totally locked up. It is only fair to note that I was using the most recent (beta) detonator drivers for the Geforce card, not the official release when half of these errors occurred and those could be part of the problem, though I’ve never have had trouble with the beta leaks from NVIDIA before. Regardless, most players will find that despite the beauty of the game, Morrowind just doesn’t seem tweaked for optimal performance on any of the three systems I was able to play it on. I expect a patch will clear up some of the performance issues and honestly none of the quirks caused me to become any less enthralled with the game over the past few weeks. In fact, even after putting in sixty-some hours with the game over the past two weeks, I find myself nearly salivating at the prospect of getting the Xbox version of the game, so I can go after it again with a different character type and race and in my much more comfortable lounge chair. |
