www.gamesradar.com/after-27-years-the-biggest-buggiest-elder-scrolls-game-finally-has-the-fanmade-remaster-it-deserves/Daggerfall was the second Elder Scrolls game and was absolutely massive, especially for its time. It was roughly the size of Great Britain. Today, few games exceed a mile to a few miles across. I want to say GTAV, relatively massive, was around five miles across. In Skyrim, major cities were a dozen or so buildings and maybe a couple-dozen NPCs. Daggerfall had literally thousands of locations and 750,000 NPCs. A labor of love has taken place for decades, trying to update Daggerfall with improved graphics, fewer bugs, and other improvements. Evidently it's finished, and a free download. www.dfworkshop.net/daggerfall-unity-1-0-release/

Those sound like impressive numbers but I get this is really old?

Honestly I felt like it was older than that.

So a game from 1996 was updated to look like a game from 1998? That seems like two decades well spent.

He's right. It was updated from really, really dated to just really dated.
