I was immediately overwhelmed because I was more familiar with playing short, linear games. I could not figure out the controls, where to go, or what to do. The first time I played Morrowind was on PC, and I hated it. The ability to transcend my existence to the captivating prophecy of Nerevar, the ‘Chosen One’, was bitter-sweet but invaluable. It allowed me to escape from the painful realities of an abusive childhood into a classic RPG fantasy world with endless freedom, beautifully crafted open-world, and fascinating lore. The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind will always have a special place in my heart.
