Enderal brings the Skyrim Engine much closer to the Mortiwind experience, for me, both in terms of story and exploration. It’s refreshing to have an open world game that’s dense instead of nearly empty.

I get that it’s grimdark and punishes optimism and that’s not for everyone, especially given the state of our real world right now. I’m a little bit spoiled on the ending and maybe I’ll feel differently once I’m hit with by twist with the full weight of narrative behind it.
