Pros
- The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall Unity, a free-to-play role-playing game, takes the classic fantasy game to new heights with improved graphics and remastered audio quality.
- Offers full modding support which allows players or the community to make changes or add content to the game for a unique gaming experience.
- This remake retains original revolutionary features offering a wide range of actions that are on par with later entries such as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
- Takes you back to the world of Tamriel, with regions like Hammerfell and High Rock waiting to be explored through multiple endings and 15,000 locations.
- It's entirely legal and free due to Bethesda turning the original into freeware in 2009.
Cons
- A possible roadblock for newbies might be its massive amount of content that needs exploring without much guidance.
- You might find it challenging because lots of secrets, equipment, spells and alternative story elements have minimal clues available for locating them.
- While the graphics are enhanced, they still retain an aesthetic similar to the original version which some modern gamers may find dated.
- New players might face learning curves similar to those faced by players of the 1996 original.
- Since this is a fan-made project rebuilt using Unity engine, it runs smoothly but minor technical issues may occasionally arise compared to professionally developed games.
