    Thank you for this guide. I've seen some growing interest in Daggerfall lately and I love it. DF is one of my fav games of all time since 1996. The atmosphere, music and the mechanics in the game are soothing. I've been watching your DF content since the beginning (original Dosbox version with the lovely sound FX bugs and 12+ hours videos) . Planning to rewatch your Whispers in Shadow, Sas-i runs. Continue whatever you are doing and never change (love the occasional salt mining).

    its funny how nowadays we have the abitlity to play games that are near life like in graphics but honestly I couldnt care less. I would rather play daggerfall with Morrowind graphics, hell just how it is vanilla is fine to me. The game just has a lot of content to it. I mean yeah you need to use your imagination quite a bit but thanks to the unity version a lot of variation and graphical enhanced sprites make the game up to modern standards. Top tier game in my book.

      I so miss the size of cities, regions, and countries. Love Skyrim, but by god Whiterun should be SO much bigger with hundreds of people, houses, and businesses. Riverwood wouldn’t even be a town in Daggerfall, might qualify as a “house” on the overland map. Lol

      @HansWurst1569 22 дні тому +1

      @@dennismokry258 You should have seen my face when I first saw Winterhold in Skyrim. For years the games (more the lore but yeah) hyped up how it was a Nord city of legend. With a magical college, a place of advanced magical learning in SKyrim. And then in the game its sunk into the sea. Not even a ruin to be found. and 4 buildings one of which is an inn... Skyrims cities were pathetic. Hands down the best city in a game ever: Novigrad from the Witcher. I think only Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 will come close or even top it.

    What you said about talking to everyone in the main quest reminded me of my recent playthrough: I was already level17, so way higher level than I needed, and I thought I did everything, but the second to last quest didn't unlock. What happened was that I forgot to talk to the maid in Castle Daggerfall and do her quest chain. That chain unlocks at level 5. Whoops.

    I remember thinking what amazingly large games we'd have one day when playing this, with more unique places. Still waiting. D: There are excellent more modest attempts, but for single player rpgs I don't know if anything since made the true attempt of full interconnectivity + size. Also climbing, still so rare and ever since this game I've always wanted it just for rp feels.
    I never came close to finishing this game - an orc warlord got stuck in a wall, and then my save got corrupted. I should probably give the modern way a go. :)

I'd actually just downloaded Unity + the basic modlist you made for recommended new players from the old video yesterday.
