[Baler]

If you had to describe daggerfall to a friend. What would you say and where would you begin?
Asking for a friend.

It's a first person real time crpg, probably the closest thing to an "adventurer life simulator" written by tabletop rpg enthusiasts in the '90s. Universe is a typical low fantasy medieval inspired world. Oh, and it has a strong dungeon crawling flavor, which is often why people love it or hate it.

Best realtime 1st person free-movement open world RPG I have ever played.

Daggerfall is probably the closest you will find to a computer rpg that actually feels like playing a pen&paper rpg in how much freedom you have in who you are and what you do.
The game can be summed up in "Freedom and Freeform". The basic game design is for playing a dungeon crawling adventurer, but how you do that, or if you even do that, is up to you.

LGR's review of it describe's it greatly.
