Morrowind did one thing better than any game I ever played: atmosphere. This game had an amazing atmosphere to it. The soundtrack, while it did loop, was excellent and epic without being cheesy. The island of Vvardenfell was incredibly unique-looking, almost like a cross between Wonderland and a prog-rock album cover. But above it all, the game introduced you to a mystifying culture that you were an outsider of. The Dunmer, their religion, their culture, their architecture, it blew me away. The sound of the silt striders over the main theme, the issue of slavery, the daedric worship. It was truly engrossing and despite its less-than-fun combat system, Morrowind managed to blow away every other game in that department.

This song is amazing.
