This program is full of bugs. I am running a system with a 1.8 Ghz Pentium 4, 512MB PC800 RDRAM, 64MB NVIDA GeForce2 MX400 graphics card. This game will not run without serious stutter and hang-up problems. The system requirements box list this as supported hardware, but the readme file included on the CD-Rom list the GeForce2 chipset as a problem. I followed the documentation included with the game and contacted Bethesda. Followed their suggestions and the game still will not run without serious problems, even with everything set on lowest possible settings and latest drivers installed. Buy this game at your own risk, or hope that Bethesda works out it's problems and gets a patch available.
=( I wish my computer could play this

This game's so fun, but it's also so hard! There are too many things to do, but it's fun! You can do anything you want, you can be anyone you want, and WOW!
A Solid Game

The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind is an amazingly open-ended RPG where you can do anything. At the start of the game, the game gives you the basics you need to know to survive. But after that, you are on your own.
The one major flaw with this game is the one feature that sets it apart from all other RPG's: It is too big! If you look around, the product descriptions will say that you can explore the different parts of Morrowind. But, there's not much too see, and it takes you too long to get there. Another major flaw is the graphics. Unless you spend hundreds of dollars upgrading your computer, the graphics will seem sketchy in some parts. A few other bugs include flawed combat and stat upgrade system and bad voice acting.
There are many good things in this game, but I will not list them. If you are looking for a decent game that's not that hard and that you can finish in a few days, then you should buy this game.
One of the fortunate few

Unfortunately, I am one of the fortunate few for whom this game will not run regardless of what I do to remedy the situation. I find it deplorable that such a shoddy product could be foisted on the public.
Couldn't even play it

The requirements on the box state soemthing to the effect of "If your video card is as fast as x you may play".
Well, I have a voodoo 5500 and it is definitely faster than the card they listed, but it is totally unsupported.
They could at least list out the exact cards it supports, for God's sake. SInce there are only 3 of them I think, that is not a lot to ask....
Being a programmer myself I am forgiving of bugs as long as they make an effort to patch in the future, or I would not have purchased the game considering how shoddy their past games were when initially released, but this is a different story; to require the directX features that they do, they would have had to develop to that directX level before it was even released or supported by the graphics card vendors.
At any real software shop, such a thing would never be considered; the 'engineers' at bethesda are proving themselves hacks more than ever with this nonsense.
I for one will never be purchasing a game from this company again....

This game is awesome! It is not like a normal RPG, where you play different levels, and then it is over. In this game, you can go wherever and join differnt guilds and fight. You can also learn magic and join the mages guild, learn fighting and join the fighters guild, and best of all, you creat your own chracter.
I have the capability and this game bites

Man, I bought this game because of all the great reviews and I am terribly disappointed and out [money]. The graphics are great and when the game starts out there is so much potential. Then you discover the dagger in the first room and find out that the fight scenes are going to be very stupid and your movements are not human-like.
You will get killed so very quickly so make sure you take lots of potions around with you. The night-time option sounds good, but you can't see a damned thing.
The quests are also nice and there are many of them, but I think that there are games out there like Dungeon Seige that are better equipped. Dungeon Seige is way more repetitive than this game which is about it's only plus.
I will be selling mine ... so come buy it....I thought it [was bad] but you might enjoy it..........NAH.
RECOMMENDATION: COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY

After speeding home from the store with my new game i just got (morrowind).i could not wait to get it open to play man it looked and sound so cool from the back of the box and some review i look up on the net.But wow they where wrong man this game starts out nice with the way you can pick your guy out and class and traid you what to be but that is it.After that it gos down hill fast to me.1 the fighting is week 2 wen you find a guild and join it it is for nothing but to wast alot of time doing nothing that will mean anything in the game.3 well the bugs dont help out.Well just not what i was looking for it to be after reading the back and trusting some good review sites.BUT the graphics are way cool but i could not tell if i ever got out of the dungeon the game was so dark.

Not sure why this game got "The best game of the year". This game sucks big time. I bought it and my friend and I tried for a couple of weeks. We agreed that this game is horrible. I sold the game to one of the local shops. If you want to play a great game, try "Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance I and II".
