I fell off relatively early on due to life but this is the closest I've gotten to scratching that itch from Morrowind since I was young. Extremely good for a free total conversion.
the best bethesda rpg in the past 10 years and it's not even by bethesda. too much baggage from the genre's orientalist past and an awful loot system drags it down.
Better than people gave it credit for but the open world design is very shallow in a way that is anti-dopamine. Best storytelling since the Black/White generation.
This is the only part of Fallout 4 that is a roleplaying game in spirit rather than in strict definition. Got spoiled on the story which probably degraded my experience. It's still Fallout 4 though.
It's just a set of themed dungeons. Bethesda wrote themselves into a corner by making this also have to be an evil expansion for settlement reasons so any story feels more pointless than usual. Porter Gage is cool.
