The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind Reviews
The release of TESO: Morrowind is the perfect time for fans of the Elder Scrolls single player games to jump in and give the MMORPG a try if they've been hesitant so far. Even if you just play as a lone wolf and want to experience the game's stories and quests as well as explore past Vvardenfell, it's worth the price of admission.
I can still say without a doubt that I have enjoyed Morrowind better than the initial release of ESO. The world seems a bit more alive and explorable. There also seems to be more polished adventure/quests going on in the initial release of Morrowind, which tells me that ZeniMax has learned a few things from past ESO lessons. Despite my disdain for some of the boss fights that are incredibly difficult when going solo in the game, the overall package of Morrowind really does provide an upgrade to the ESO family in several areas. If you haven't played ESO, but have enjoyed The Elder Scrolls series, then this might be the right time to jump in to see what it is about.
„Morrowind” is a perfect place to start playing The Elder Scrolls Online. If you haven't done it yet, console version of Vvardenfell should properly get you up to speed.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is an impressive new addition to an already solid MMO. The Elder Scrolls Online has been constantly evolving since its initial launch, and the new content introduced in this chapter builds upon these improvements.
Which in the end gets a lot of things right, in addition to feeling like a traditional open-world Elder Scrolls RPG expansion. In that sense, The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is a definite success, it faithfully recreates and updates the iconic location for both modern audiences and modern gaming hardware. Seriously, simply walking around and taking in all the sights is worth the price of admission alone.
From the immersive main storyline to the references to the original game, ESO: Morrowind is an enjoyable addition that has rekindled my interest in MMOs.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is an expansion whose additions won't be enough to take this MMO to new heights, but those that are already on board will surely enjoy it, especially if their love for the original trip to Vvardenfell (or Tamriel in general) still burns strong.
Also, if it is true that we are witnessing the return of something that has thrilled us over time, in fact we are still waiting for a single chapter singer and we look forward to pointing to that!

This game really wants to take you back. So much so, that it seems new characters will even just start out in Morrowind if they skip the intro story. Fresh off a boat in Seyda Neen, you go through a lot of the motions of the original game. There are many shout-outs, call-backs, and Easter eggs for those familiar with the first Morrowind – so many, in fact, that you’ll nearly choke on them all. And that’s okay, really. It’s what we wanted.
The return of Morrowind will certainly be hitting the right notes with many fans of the series, but it also adds to a growing list of reasons as to why The Elder Scrolls series is better as a solo experience.
Certainly worth playing if you have the time and patience, but perhaps worth waiting till you have the time to properly delve into the world, otherwise the full experience may be lost on you.
A great repository of nostalgia-heavy stories, but it doesn't make the most of being an MMO.
Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind certainly offers some great quest lines and a fantastic nostalgia trip for those familiar with Vvardenfell. However, it feels a lot emptier, with monsters being simply unexciting and the new PVP being abysmally balanced. The new Warden class, however, offers an interesting new way to play.
The Elder Scrolls Online gets its biggest shot in the arm yet with the extensive Morrowind chapter. It doesn't properly fix the fundamental flaws of the base game, but it does add an interesting, fresh depth for veteran players whilst keeping it somewhat accessible for newcomers.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is a great return for the MMO made by ZeniMax and Bethesda Softwork. A standalone add-on for a brand new adventure, in the legendary island of Vvanderfell.

Offers hours more Elder Scrolls, for those who want hours more Elder Scrolls.
While Elder Scrolls Online has improved through the release of Morrowind, it still isn't enough of a jump to warrant a resounding recommendation (the 4v4v4 PVP mode here still isn't enough to get me into ESO PVP). If you already own it and are coasting by on free-to-play fumes, you should still think about upgrading and exploring the pointed, more focused land of Vvardenfell.
15 years later Morrowind is still a special place. Those who return home will be greeted by familiarity, but with a modern twist.
Bethesda has done a great job of recreating one of the franchise's most iconic locations in the Morrowind Expansion for ESO. It's also a good showcase for just how far this game has come in the last few years.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is a very enjoyable expansion to an already rock solid role-playing experience. Featuring some fantastic questlines, this is a welcome return to the island of Vvardenfell - a wonderful location which has been lovingly recreated.
