I miss having a journal that I would actually have to read in order to orient myself. I think that was my favorite feature of Morrowind, and it was a good middle point between actually having to keep a journal (Myst) and just having a quest marker like most modern games.

Skyrim also looked pretty janky compared to other contemporary games at the time though. All Bethesda games have mediocre graphics. They’re just not good at them for whatever reason, but I don’t mind when the worlds are good.

    Yeah, the gameplay loop was quite nice. I did find that I'd forget what I was doing if I didn't play for a while, so I started naming my saves with a reminder (e.g. go back to fighter's guild). Other than that, the built-in journal was great and a lot of fun to read through to remember where I'd been.

    I don't really like RPGs generally though, mostly because I don't like messing with leveling systems. A lot of other people love that aspect of RPGs (hence the focus on making completely broken builds in MW communities), and I don't really care about gear, but I do really like lore and Morrowind is amazing at that.
