This is the best of the TES games to me. Always loved the look of the Khajiit in Daggerfall. Was really weirded out when I saw them as beastmen in Morrowind. And being the first TES game I really played, and went through the whole game from beginning to end. Also being able to Spiderman up walls will never get boring to me, ever! Edit: Now that I think about it, I think the Khajiit actually did have a tail in Daggerfall. For some reason that eluded my memory at first. Either way, the complete change to total beast mode in Morrowind still threw me off back then.

One of them is called Dream which u I would still recommend but only for it's updated UI option and nothing else. Besides that, check the top files list from Nexus mods and see what you like.

"I'm working hard on the next one: Morrowind." Oh boy, this is where it will hit hometown for me then. Morrowind was where my imaginations and my thirst for fantasy stories and RPGs absolutely peaked, my first TES game. I mean, i don't really know what you're going to tell me about this game, which i don't already know yet, but i will still watch that video, too. I'm kinda sad they scrapped the climbing part from Daggerfall for Morrowind though. Would be nice to "climb that mountain over there." I also think from first look that the 3D map of Daggerfall's interiors and dungeons doesn't look so bad, but i've already heard a lot of criticism for it, so something must be fishy with that map, i guess. Anyway, good video there, Lycan. Never expected a channel with not even 2k subs (at this moment) to have videos with such a high level of quality to them, gives this channel these "hidden gem"-vibes for sure.

Oh and joining a temple did NOT lock you out of potions. You could have joined the Dark Brotherhood. They also have potion making. Honestly magica is better than potions anyway. Potions take up inventory space and once their gone their gone. You can cast magica whenever you need to and just rest to recharge your magica. As for HUGE dungeons there is another point for using Daggerfall Unity. You can use the smaller dungeon option. Also don't forget the recall spell for teleporting. And YES if you clip outside the dungeons so you can see the whole layout sometimes you can see that there are sometimes broken dungeon sections that can not be reached by any means. This is also fixed in the Unity version.

Sorry for leaving three comments but I can tell you really liked Daggerfall and it is one of my favorite games. Now that you have had the vanilla experience if you haven't already install Unity and then go to the Nexus and get some great mods. Not ones that change the game drastically. But kind of a vanilla plus type experience. Enhance the graphics and lighting. Install the decorator. Whatever you are drawn to. I wanted to let you know since you didn't mention them about the Deadric quests. You liked the artifact quests in Arena. Well if you noticed those artifacts are the same artifacts that in later games are tied to different Daedric Lords. Like the Oghma Infinium being from Hermaus Mora. But that lore did not exist yet in Arena. Well in Daggerfall it does. It's kind of well hidden but you can actually find all 16 Daedric Lords in Daggerfall. Sheogorath (my personal favorite) is even part of the main quest towards the end. Each Daedric Lord can be summoned but only on one specific in game day PER YEAR. Crazy isn't it. Besides being able to look it up on UESP you can find the summoning days by reading in game books.

Geez, did the first time hearing "Veeeeengeaaaange~" come out of the blue and creep ya out? Then again, related to video games last night I had quite a dream. I was at a nearby joint getting something to eat with some Asian guy I assume to have been associated with, some intruder messing up our order to the floor despite my apparent friend trying to prevent it with some quick martial arts skills and then delays. Then I try to buy sidesnacks but apparently a newbie doing cashier stuff and the restaurant getting crowded. Then apparently passed out or time elapsed and I go to the nearby supermarket of the neighbour, only to find it on flames (oddly, rendered in a way that it's just the fire effects over the model in a video game as if not needing to re-render the place into a burned out state afterwards). And then saw Sephiroth from FF7 in middle of flames coming after me, mostly to let me know I'm not safe despite best attempts to run away XD Ever had video game related nightmares? Also, having Chicken with rice and shitake mushrooms and bamboo with Dr Pepper while watchin' this.

Daggerfall is famous for it's tons of bugs. That's why today we have the Unity version. It's virtually bug free. If you don't install any mods it simply fixes all the games bugs and adds modern quality of life features like modern controls. I have watched so many different youtubers who "want to play the original for that authentic experience" or some such nonsense. I would say that Unity is the game the way Bethesda intended it to be but didn't have the time or the manpower to accomplish. If you research the development history of the game you will better understand what went wrong and why during development and why the at the time tiny team at Bethesda really did all they could to even release the game in a somewhat playable state. Jwlar has a great retrospective on the game including a section on the development. The mods for Daggerfall Unity are like icing on the cake. One of my favorite is the decorator. It allows you to fully furnish and decorate your player home or ship with any item in the game. It's like hearthfire for Skyrim but much more customizable.

Then I clicked the door, popped out into the clear wintry air, and found out it had only been the tutorial dungeon and the rest of the world was the size of great britain.
