VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 hours agoDaggerfall has a massive world, yes. However, you don’t really explore the world in Daggerfall the same way. Almost everything is generated, including towns, side quests, and dungeons. Most “exploration” consists of getting a quest in a town, finding out info from other people in the town, then fast traveling to the dungeon.
It’s less like Morrowind onward and more like infinite D&D. In fact, the half-baked radiant quest system in Skyrim was an attempt to recreate some of that system from Daggerfall. Except Daggerfall has so many interesting variables.

I had heard that it’s procedurally generated but I wasn’t sure to what extent. That’s interesting. Well, maybe it’ll be the next title I check out then. I definitely have a lot I want to do in Morrowind first, though.
