Coming out onto the deck under the blinding light of day, I was transfixed by the fully realized fantasy world, the looming silt strider hovering over the river, and the unique characters that not only populated the small coastal town but inhabited it. I’ll never forget those first moments when my character was released from bondage in the hold of a ship. For me, there’ll never be another game quite like The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind.
