Morrowind - Retrospective @ Digital Spy

There's a brief retrospective on Morrowind at Digital Spy, probably in part motivated by the succes of Skyrim, the latest installment in the TES series. A tidbit:

Quality and not quantity comes to mind, though, as each town, city and dungeon was crafted by hand. It made for a far more memorable and individual world, one with such character that it remains a fan-favourite today. The region of Vvardenfell, an island province, can only be described as being somewhat bizarre, a place that ditched traditional stone castles and lush green landscapes for wooden villages next to dank swamps, mushroom-covered hillsides and tall striders that would transport players between locations.
