They are so different in fact that while ESO: Morrowind has fully-voiced NPCs, ES III has next to zero voice acting put into the game, it's all text. Apples and pineapples - they might both be fruit but that is pretty much where their similarities end.Ceres Des Mortem-Dark Elf Templar, EP

This....i think within the limitations of an mmo ZOS is doing a decent job at delivering (solo) rpg campaigns and they have certainly improved a lot since the start0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Elder Scrolls III : MorrowindSingleplayer games will ALWAYS outshine Multiplayer. ES:III probably has at least 5x the playable content, you can Mod the game, and it's a lot more stable to play. Sure the graphics are incredibly dated but there's actually a team of Fans remaking the entire game using the Skyrim Engine.CP2,000 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - The Clan

✭Elder Scrolls III : MorrowindOne is an RPG that was around 6 years in the making, the other an MMO expansion that was maybe a year, two tops, and had the budgets to match. One was built to be a standalone game, the other a supplement to a game that already existed. One was catching lightning in a bottle in a perfect storm of the right people working on the right game at the right time, while the other is made by MMO devs who need to push out new content once every three months.
This is comparing apples to oranges, and then complaining that the oranges have peels.Living vicariously through my characters.
My Girls:"If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"
Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

✭✭ESO : MorrowindTES III is actually unplayable without mods. Walking everywhere no fast travel, truely horrendous combat system. bad graphics obviously. I couldn't even get close to finishing the thing. It is such archaic game design that it makes modern eyes bleed. It is high literiture of gaming, its like lord of the rings, actually a serious slog to get through but apperently it is worth it... although I don't know because I couldn't finish it.
Keep in mind I played it after I played skyrim and not within its original gaming context.
I can actually play ESO morrowind regaudless of what else I think about it. It doesn't have the grand scope of TES III since it is within another larger game so its not really a fair fight.

Draqone✭✭✭✭ESO : MorrowindTES3 Morrowind:
Horrible combat, bad graphics, performance problems. Polished lore without many loopholes. Some very immersive storylines despite them not being voice acted. A lot of freedom, more than is possible in an MMO.
ESO Morrowind:
Decentish combat, OK graphics, battleground performance problems. Some immersive storylines that are voice acted. A lot of bad decisions as far as the lore is concerned. Not much freedom since it's an MMO but it captures the spirit of the TES3 Morrowind quite nicely.
tl:dr ESO Morrowind is a better game, TES3 was a better story.ESO Balance:

✭Elder Scrolls III : MorrowindAt least with ES3, you got a proper introduction to Vvardenfell.
On my main, I have no reason to go there. Not even a quest to link me to the new content.
And if I sound bitter, it's coming out right.

✭✭✭✭✭You can't compare the two, because the original was an entire game, whereas ESO: Morrowind is just a DLC (I mean "chapter"). Obviously original Morrowind was better with the exception of graphics, because there was just a whole lot more of everything.Edited by SydneyGrey on June 1, 2017 6:03AM0 -

✭Elder Scrolls III : MorrowindIt's kinda weird to compare single player game with MMO. What criteria should I use? They are obviously not at the same ground. Pointless. Voted for TES III only because it's a big part of my childhood. As for ESO's Morrowind, it was great to be back to Vvardenfell. ZOS have done very nice work with questline. Totally endorsed.
P.S. This poll need option "Both games are best in their own way" or something similar to it.EU PC: @logarifmik | Languages: Русский, English

Actually Morrowind had a lot of forms of fast travel
- silt striders
- mages guild travel
- Propylon chambers (after finishing a quest from a official plugin
- mark and recall spells
- divine intervention scroll
- scroll of almsivi intervention
Gamewise I like the original Morrowind the best. I played it on launch even even up to today I occasionally play it. Just vanilla with the original plugins and the FPS optimizer so I can play in 1920 * 1080.
I understand the game is outdated and looks bad compared to newer games. But I also still play the original doom so graphics is not my problem
TES III Morrowind was one of the last true PC RPG's before the series got thumbed down because developers thing console peasants are *** who cannot read large amounts of text and need fast travel every 100 meters like in ESO.
But still, they did a very good job to recreate Vvardelfell in ESO. I do enjoy it, I like the scenery and quests. And it's comparing apples and oranges tbh.Edited by Knootewoot on June 1, 2017 6:13AM٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
"I am a nightblade. Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape. The key to a nightblade's success is avoidance, by spell or by stealth; with these skills, all things are possible."2 -

I was referring to the "Prophecy". Interesting issue tho with the one from the DLC menu, needs to be solved.1 -

Flameheart✭✭✭✭✭You forgot the option:
"Sorry my poll was stupid, because I forgot that Elder Scrolls Morrowind and ESO Morrowind are two totally different game designs (single player RPG vs. MMO) and it is therefore sheer impossible to compare them, alone due to the fact, that MMOs have to satisfy much more needs and wishes as just "open worldness, game play, interesting characters".
I would have clicked that.
..but ok, I now start to understand why I had three PUGs yesterday which failed miserably at Stormreeve Neidir in vet Tempest Island, because they thought standing on 28m and doing light attacks the whole fight is a good idea and that we died now 5 times in a row by her roundhouse kick was just bad luck.
See, so different are expectations and experiences in MMOs.
To be honest, I was rather surprised by the visual beauty of ESO-Vvardenfell, the well thought and complex quest lines and how much content was in fact in that smaller MMO-Version of Vvardenfell.

Yes, and also because the first Morrowind was an entire stand-alone game, not a DLC, so therefore had more quests, delves and the like to explore and do. ESO: Morrowind is awesome and I love it, but there isn't as much content compared with the original.Flameheart wrote: »You forgot the option:
