The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind

It's been almost two decades since Bethesda released The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, a game that would revolutionize the genre and take the company from precarity to runaway success. Since then Bethesda has released two more entries in the series, Oblivion and Skyrim, with increasing commercial success with each iteration. However, in some ways the accomplishments of Morrowind have yet to be matched by the series' subsequent entries. This month we revisit Morrowind to have a discussion about what made the land of Vaardenfell come alive for so many, and what keeps this game as a fan favorite for many all these years later.
