Morrowind was a lot more rigid then Skyrim. It seems harder when you are a low level character stumbling into areas and quests that are beyond you, but once you get to a high level nothing can challenge you. And you can only avoid finding a massively OP trick through serious effort.Childe said:Visually and combatwise i think Skyrim is better. However as an rpg and for story i think morrowind is better. I've played all three-Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim- and while i've played skyrim the most i think i enjoyed morrowind the most. I'm really excited that there is a group of people working on bringing Morrowind up the the visual level of Skyrim.
Edit: Thinking about it, Morrowind was a lot harder then Skyrim is, which, in my opinion, makes it better. I remember dying so many times, and the real danger of dying gave the game a real adventure feel. That was lost in Skyrim, as long as you weren't beserker reckless you wouldn't really die.
Skyrim has the best balance of any Elder Scrolls game i have played (the big 3, Morrowind Oblivion and Skyrim). Which is really saying something, because Skyrim is very very far from being well balanced.
