This is why Morrowind sucked me in back in the day. Huge-ass mushrooms everywhere. Weird floating jellyfish and all manner of bizarre creatures from top to bottom. It was so foreign and different, it was amazing.
I played TES Online briefly and the uniqueness of Morrowind was incredibly stark. Every other zone is just standard European fantasy. And that’s fine, but what originally pulled me into the series was the strangeness of Morrowind. It was truly unique.
It’s a bit sad to me that they brought the series way back into the standard fantasy fare.
