Daggerfall - Morrowind Comparison

[Lucy (Leofwina of Norþfolc)]

Between the release of Daggerfall and Morrowind (1996-2002ish) The series made many improvements to the series. I will be doing a Daggerfall - Morrowind comparison with an attempt at being as fair as possible to both games:

DAGGERFALL:

1. Like Arena, Daggerfall used 2D Sprites, with some 3D-looking sprites to make everything more realistic.
   
2. Daggerfall used, again like Arena, the skills, attributes, and use-skills-to-level-up progression system
   
3. Daggerfall allowed you to remap the controls, a huge improvement from Arena, but also allowed you to choose between view-based combat, and cursor-based combat.
   
4. Daggerfall let you explore the provinces of High Rock and Hammerfell.
   
5. It allowed for multiple endings, increase replayabilty.
   
6. To a certain extent, some features were generated randomly.
   
7. You could join a large array of Guilds
   
8. Language Skills, such as Giantish, Impish, and Orcish
   
9. Timed quests
   
10. Fast travel between counties
    
11. Ability to buy a horse/house/wagon

MORROWIND:

1. Use of 3D characters, along with limited voice acting
   
2. less skills then daggerfall, but still a large amount
   
3. removal of cursor-based combat of Arena and Daggerfall
   
4. Single province - The Island of VVardenfell in Morrowind
   
5. most features in the game not generated randomly
   
6. Different guilds, but still a very large amount
   
7. removal of langauage skills
   
8. Added star signs
   
9. Added skill books
   
10. Non-timed quests
    
11. Better world map
    
12. No fast travel
    
13. Ability to build a stronghold
    
14. DLC's!!!!

This is not a comparison about "which is better". That, I leave up to you to decide. Both have great atomspheres in their own way. So, you decide.......

"To a certain extent, some features were generated randomly."

If memory serves, about 95% of the entire game world safe for some key buildings and dungeons were randomly generated.
