Which game is better? Morrowind or Diablo II

[Sword_of_Doom]

Hi fellow Lurkers:

I have been playing Morrowind for the past few months and i must say it is quite the game. I also have played Diablo 2 for a couple of years and thought it was the greatest game of all time. My thinking is beginning to change, especially with the two expansions to Morrowind. I am very interested to here what people think is the best of the two games, Morrowind or Diablo II, and what are your reasons why?

I like them both, but they are very different sytles of game.

I still play them both as well on occasion, but since I still play Masters of Orion II and Diablo 1 on a semi-regular basis I don't know how heavy you want to weight my opinion. :)

HALO. :lol:

On a serious note, I'd choose Torment over either option any day of the week.

I think that any game that has more depth than 1 millimeter is better than Diablo II ;)

why?

D2, because it actually runs (on my machine).

Yes, that's right... another convert.

Which is better Chess or Solitaire? I also vote that they are very different games. I like them both, and at times I like Deus Ex, Mechwarrior, and NWN, and Warcraft, and TFC, and Counter-Strike ...

Variety is the spice of gaming. Do anything for too long and your eyes go funny. :blink:

I'd take any Infinity Engine game (e.g. Baldur's Gate series, Icewind Dale series, Planescape: Torment) over either of them, personally.

But, since you asked, I'd have to say I like Morrowind more than D2, even though I can't run Morrowind on my system. I played it on a friend's Xbox (oh, the shame!), and enjoyed it, even if I couldn't quite get around using a controller for something designed for a mouse and keyboard. My Argonian Knight was looking rather spiffy by the time I stopped playing :)

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri. ;)

Sorry, I've never played Morrowind. Perhaps I should.
