<A href="http://www.gamerswithjobs.com/">Gamers with Jobs</a> has gone and done a <A href="http://www.gamerswithjobs.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=489&mode=flat&order=0&thold=0">review</a> of that snowy, wolf romping expansion, <A href="http://www.morrowind.com">Morrowind: Bloodmoon</a>. They seem to like it.
<br>
<br>
<blockquote>The land itself is maybe 1/5th the size of the main game?s land mass which may not seem like much at first but the area Bloodmoon does encompass is packed with tombs, caves and other interesting locations. It is set up in such a way that you still get a strong sense of exploration without crossing miles of barren wasteland to do it. Less ground to walk and more content per square foot is a definite plus in this case, here?s hoping the next Elderscrolls game sticks with this kind of philosophy. </blockquote>

I never did mind the walking much in <a href="Http://www.morrowind.com">Morrowind</a>, but tripping over a dungeon and falling in to a crypt just seems a little too dense.

One thing I've heard about Bloodmoon is that the quests are excetionally well made. Granted, this was MWfanboys talking, but at least better than the ones in the main island they appear to be. Anyone got this impression as well?

Well, I'll admit, Bloodmoon actually looks fairly interesting to me. The only thing really holding me back is I don't want to re-install the game, build up a new character, and deal with that combat system again.

play a high acro/athletics/marksman/stealth and avoid the combat :)

I've heard something like level 10 to survive on the island. if your wish is just to play bloodmoon, you can probably find a decent character editor. Or just load several million gold and train skils to level.. should be fast. then drop the remainder

Yeah, damn. I'll have to redownload all of my freaking plugins to support bloodmoon, and I damn well want those plugins (the soun enhancement plugin in particular) to work.
