Hi,
I would just like to get everybody to share their best moments in the game, be they the most beautiful, the mostt horrific, the funniest, the saddest or the one with the most athmosphere.
All those moments, that really made you forget it was just a game ....

SUnrise always gets me. Once, it even made me cry.

The single best moment must have been when I stepped off the prison ship for the first time and saw the sky and water. Then I looked around and saw an ever streching environment waiting to be conquered... and I realized the possibilities.
The single worst moment was a few weeks later, when I realized the true potential of this game... and realized how much it had been squandered. Take the NPC dialogue, for instance: repetetive, flat, and absent of any feeling. On the other hand, the books and reading material have a lot of good (and some very well written) text... I've always wondered why the dialogue and NPC interactions was so monotonous and dull when compared to the in-game literature. A world so vast, so rich with colour... but with zombie-like inhabitants who have nothing of interest to say? That is wasted potential.

The problem is that they went down the route of being able to talk to everyone. There are just too many NPCs for each to be nice and detailed. Thinking about Fallout 2, most NPCs got one generic line and couldn't really be spoken to.

IMO it's the static gameworld that is Morrowinds biggest flaw. It's always the same - night or day! The world doesn't interact actively with the player - it's always the player who approaches somebody for a quest of some sort. Imagine people actively approaching the player, requesting his/her help. Being a high-ranking Telvanni for instance should be able to trigger other devious souls' envy and maybe an assassination contract!

yeah I agree... I am the arch-mage of the mage's guild and no one does a thing for me. but to me... I hate how everything is allways the same; shops should close at night, people should go home and sleep instead of staying up all night, and people should actually go to different places instead of the same place...forever.
and my best moment is when trebonius challenged me to a duel... and I beat him with only 2 hp left(he kept hitting me with magic... I forget what kind) and when I became arch-mage I love being arch-mage! :D

Using the shrine at the High Fane and then flying over Dagoth Ur on the way to the sanctus shrine. Dear god it was creepy,(since I was so low level) with the blood red skies and winds and the freaky corpus beasts crawling a hundred feet below me.
And then the actual fortress of Dagoth Ur (which I didn't know existed) looming into sight, and me thinking that this must be how the Sauron's Baradur must have looked like as I thanked Vivec that I wasn't on the ground. :eek:

Funniest: When Crassius Curio asked me to call him Uncle Pudding Cup or whatever and then demanded that I take off my clothes. My jaw dropped. :D
Most Suprising: discovering Creeper and that drunk crab.
Saddest: When Caius was recalled. I had started to feel protective towards the old sugarhead, and I was actually worried about him. Runner Up: I felt almost as bad when I accidentally killed a tame guar as I did in Deus Ex when I squished cats by mistake...
Most satisfying: When I emerged from Dagoth Ur after the big fight to find the sky clear and the sun shining on me as I made my weary way home. The first time I played, I felt like I had actually saved the goddamn world. :cool:
But nothing can beat the way I felt the first time I came up out of the ship and looked around... the water, the town, seeing Fargoth standing at a distance, seeming to be watching my arrival.... Amazing.

The problem is that Tuco wasn't an NPC.
