The aforemention Daggerfall. I didnt mention this among my favourites for one reason. The plot never drew me in as much as those I listed, I never truly felt for the plot. Actually I never solved the plot though I had the game on my HD for 18 months and played it almost everyday. What Daggerfall lacked it made up for in flexibility. I started this game as a really nice guy, a knight. I joined the knights of daggerfall and rose to a high rank, gained a house, that kind of thing. One day, deep in a dungeon, I was killed by a vampire. I woke up in a darkened tomb thiking "What the hell?". I wandered out and a woman on the street was like "You? You are dead. I saw you funeral." After a while my vampire clan got in contact with me and rather than the derring do missions that the knights gave me I started getting darker type missions. I rose high as a vampire and after a while recieved a letter from this guy telling me I would have to change my ways or he would come kill me. He gave me insturctions for a quest to get better. After much adeventuring I completed it. That was my first charachter. Played about 20 after varying through all classes. And the game was never the same twice. It didnt make my top list because of the lack of plot cohesion, but it is still and landmark!
