The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Turns 15

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Turns 15

There's a personal retrospective NeoGAF of The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind in honor of yesterday's 15th anniversary of the release of Betheda's RPG sequel. The game was first released on May 1, 2002, and how times have changed since then is amply demonstrated by the opening reference to buying a boxed copy at Woolworth's.

Others have mentioned the great things about Morrowind but what hasn't been mentioned is the soundtrack. It was the first game that I can recall that seemed to have a matching musical motif for every single aspect of the game.

I still listen to it to this day when I am working on brain powered things because it's such a rich score.

Also had probably the best thunder storms in a game up to that point.
Loved listening to the soundtrack and then a storm rolls through.

Morrowind has pretty good weather effects and the sky was beautiful too. There was no delay on the lightning strike sound though, so thunderstorms weren't perfect. It would have been so much more atmospheric if they'd have done that. I actually asked the devs about that in one of their mirc Q and As before the game was released. Didn't change their implementation though.
