Morrowind is a game that I appreciate from a distance. It's chock full of interesting little places, the world is so goddamn weird (ash storms, dwemer ruins!), it has flight (!), and the single player story is actually not completely terrible. But man, actually playing the game at times is like having someone hit you in the balls with a hammer and if you're playing a magic user, then that hammer also shoots gun-toting scorpions at you.
I'm kinda getting tired of Skyrim, but I've made it way further than I ever have in Morrowind or Oblivion.
