Nahhh, some of them really were bad graphics. Morrowind and Mario Sunshine came out in the same year.

The scope of each of those games is so vastly different that I don't think that's a fair comparison. The art styles are wildly different too.

I also frequently lie to myself.

The world of Morrowind, in aggregate, is beautiful and sometimes genuinely breathtaking.

Individual models may look like deep fried asshole, but they come together to form an aesthetic that I personally like quite a lot.

so I totally forgot that I commented on this, and was coming in to make a comment about how aesthetic is so much more important than graphical fidelity, then saw that I had already made a quippy comment.

oops.

Different styles. All Morrowind's missing is ragdolls and physics.

Though Oblivion Rosacea is hard to look past...
