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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

„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.

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.

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.

A few technical issues aside, this is a great expansion that will please fans of the original Morrowind, as well as allowing new players to finally experience Vvardenfell for themselves.

A great expansion that adds a lot of content while providing a reason to keep waiting for the next The Elder Scrolls main game.

Maybe this will not get more new players, but Morrowind is what every expansion should be. Featuring lots of new content, a great new story and nostalgia for The Elder Scrolls' veteran players.

All of the changes Zenimax Online has made to Elder Scrolls Online since its 2014 launch culminate in the Morrowind expansion. Returning to a classic Elder Scrolls region, the expansion stands a great update to old environments. The writing is excellent, though the overall presentation can feel a little dry at times. The new Warden class needs a second look as well, but overall Morrowind is an excellent welcome mat for new and returning players.

Morrowind feels like it begs you to come home, and what a welcome it has in store when you get there.

Since the release of The Elder Scrolls Online, Bethesda has not stopped enhancing its MMORPG and listening to fans. In this sense, The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind perfectly fulfilled the objective set by the studio: an invitation to a journey through time to (re)discover the island of Vvardenfell, which may disappoint the MMORPG purists, but that will delight RPG explorers.

Morrowind is a well-made expansion for Elder Scrolls veterans but it doesn't really manage to get new players to the party. With countless hours of new quest content, a new class and changes for fans of PvP, Morrowind delivers nearly everything a MMO-Fan could wish for. If you're new to the series you will not really get enough help to get into the game besides the adjusting of the enemy level to your own.

The Elder Scrolls Online: Morrowind is a solid, well written and fascinating expansion of an imperfect game. If you loved the original Morrowind and you wanna come back to those lands, characters and lore, you won't be disappointed.

The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind is well worth it just even with the addition of the Warden class but moreso the fact that you will have lots of quests to play and some PVP on the side for those who just want to spill blood, it’s an expansion packed with features that makes it worth your while.
