Yeah, I also enjoyed Gothic way more - I do love Morrowind, but other than that, I've never been huge fan of Elder Scrolls - for my taste, I find both Might and Magic VI/VII and Wizardry 8 better open world RPGs than most of ES games, to be honest.

Yeah, Might & Magic are great games! I have the GOG version of M&M VI, VII and VIII! Finished VII a while back and I'm starting VIII after new year's! They seem simple on the surface and the interface takes a lot of getting used to but the games themselves are surprisingly deep and the gameplay is super-addictive! There's also an incredible variation in enemies, more so than any other open world RPG I can think of and the game world is truly massive as well as greatly varied (variation is the biggest weakness of the Elder Scrolls series, M&M and Gothic beat the hell out of the Elder Scrolls in this department).

M&M VIII is a bit weaker entry into series, but still satisfying to play. I'm patiently waiting to see when will that fan based project (M&M X) get released, it's been 10 years since we had new entry. Of course, there's always chance that Ubi, as owner of rights to franchise since 2003, will decide to compete with Bethesda and make some new game, but I'm not sure should I be looking forward to it, considering there's very little chance, in my opinion, they would stick to original formula.
