Quote:Morrowind sold very, very well on both the PC and X-Box. It was in the top ten for a very long time, and kept on popping up every so often. The game has legs like no other RPG.

No, you are still ignoring the fact that this was never just about Morrowind. Unless you somehow thought that the thread name of "Arena" actually reads "Morrowind"?
It's not my fault that you haven't played Arena or Daggerfall, and blaming ME for what YOU haven't done is not right!
Quote:I'm referring to the endless number of watered-down Diablo cloned on every system known to man, the most abundant type of RPG out there.
In that case, possibly. But the Diablo games themselves are clearly games that took a lot of work to make.
