A really interesting specimen of a dungeon crawler, especially with the procedural generation of 88,745 square miles of land. It can be very unforgiving at times (especially in the early stages of the game), but there is a lot of room for creativity with character builds and custom spells, etc. It's super interesting to go back and play especially if you're a Skyrim or Oblivion fan. A huge amount of the lore started to show itself in this game, as well as some familiar faces. It might be worth a play for some people just for that fact. Otherwise, if you're into mid 90s dungeon crawlers, this is basically a must. If you are thinking of playing it, PLEASE play Daggerfall Unity rather than a DOS version of this game. It's a fantastic port with years of development and a cultivated modding community. It's an experience in and of itself! There's a page on Backloggd for it if you're curious!
