Anyone else played it? Currently running it on DOSbox now that it's freeware. Already enjoying it a lot more than Skyrim, since it actually feels like a robust RPG.

I am too much of a Graphics whore to really get into it, but I hear it has an amazingly immersive story line.

DOSbox is the only way to run those games now. Have you played Arena?

Loved it! But it's been many years since I last played it.

It's fine. By today's standards it's pretty lame; the story is nice but the game lacks the immersion that modern RPG's can provide through voice acting, cinematics, and realistic graphics.

Also, I was gonna say, if you've played Arena, then you've played Daggerfall.

Probably because it was randomly generated. Can't think of any game that does that nowadays.

I tried a few times to play Daggerfall but I just get so.... overwhelmed. There is so much I don't know what to do. I end up just going to Morrowind because I have still barely scratched the surface there as well

Tons of indie games do it now. Minecraft is a good example as well.
