ElderScrolls 2: Daggerfell Free

To celebrate the series's 15th anniversary Bethesda has released Daggerfell for free.

Unfortunately they've made no efforts to make it compatible with modern systems, so reading the instructions is advised. Link

This is apparently a reat game and one I've been looking to try for ages.

It is, but the graphics are kinda... poor.

Morrowind = The best in the series. Although daggerfall has an absurd size and amount of npcs.

I know. Daggerfell is supposed to be as big as Britain or something.

I do love Morrowind though, but I've been dying to give this a go.

You can't really expect great graphics in a game that big that's 400mb

Looked it up on Google Images... those graphics SUCK.

Oh well... I might give it a shot once I get internet back on my computer.

Yeah, I saw this on teh kotaku, and I'm downloading it. Should be interesting...

IDIVIDUAL PIXELS FTWWWW

Back in my day we didn't have your fancy smancy pixels.

We had text, a command prompt, and our imaginations!

Welcome to Zork.

You are in an open field west of a big white house
with a boarded front door.

BAsically Qwertyopolis....

Well, the current version anyway. The next one will be far less D&D style.

This forums lack of Zork knowledge saddens me.

*grips about you kids and your facebook and your games with pixels*

Also Guax that looks one hell of a lot like Arena (elderscrolls one)

You are in a dark place. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

Wait a sec...

Is it just me, or does the guy to the left, walking away, have higher quality graphics than the person right in front of you?

well obviously. low resolution will always look better at a distance.
