I'm old school, but not sure if its to old for me. Are there any mods overhauls available? I modded Oblivion and really enjoyed it.

Definitely looking forward to that Unity remake. I've never made it very far in Daggerfall, but I'd still like to actually try a full playthrough one day.

I have been playing Daggerfall Unity with a user created Quest mod. While missing some features it is and will be a much better game than the original release. I play this almost as much as Demise.

I must have sunk hundreds of hours into Daggerfall in the days. But those terrible endless random dungeons. Im sure my allergy to proceduraly generated whatever started in dark depths of one of those. I dont remember if I ever finished it though.

Man is that ugly now. I suppose the imagination can fill in a lot of detail.

Yeah, that's why I'm looking forward to that Unity remake. I don't think I could ever bring myself to play the original unmodded version.

1990's graphics just don't cut it anymore.

I'm not sure I could play this one in its original state these days, but I sure did enjoy the heck out of it when it first launched. If the remake in Unity really happens, I'd likely give that a shot and see if it could recapture some of those old vibes.

I needed more than 400 hours to solve the main storyline.
