Basically give us a Morrowind clone with a better leveling system, remove the hit rolls, and updated visuals.

OH, and voice acting. Nit because it's better than text, but because the writing on Morrowind was way too verbose. I don't need to read a 30-page essay on the history of the history of a family whose servants once believed they spotted a mythical ring that culminate in a fetch quest.

I want the Morrowind levels of text, but let it be optional for those who want to delve into those branches of dialogue, and feel free to use splicing/AI to voice the extended options.

You speak to an NPC and it comes up with a few options like Skyrim, but included [More] at the bottom with far more topics.

That works too. I loved diving through books and stuff, but sometimes the quest dialogs just got too wordy.

TES books are the best, dude. I'm playing a (heavily modded but largely vanilla+) playthrough of Skyrim right now and just came across a large trove of tomes. I grab whatever I come across that I haven't read while in dungeons or what have you, and at night when I return to my campsite (Campfire mod) I like to gather wood, roast a meal, and sit down to read through whatever literature I found that day. I have a stash sack full of some too for those nights where I'm feeling too wiped to really get into the game. I can just relax to the sound of crickets or morning birds and catch up on my lore.

I'd kill for a Daggerfall remake. That was my first TES experience and I still remember staying up all night to play it in highschool.

Theres never been a more perfect time! This project recently reached 1.0 converting it over to Unity and is supported by mods!
