I agree with the comments about morrowind, it is certainly best that this former designer never works on the elder scrolls again; so out of touch with the audience. Skyrim is absolute dogshit; that game has what I refer to as consolelitus. 

Since I haven't played Morrowind, nor Skyrim, I don't really have an opinion about this comparison in particular. But it's true that gaming has kept changing and evolving in many ways, and not every game has aged well in one way or another.

With that said, Bethesda has simplified a lot of things in their games over time, with the Fallout series being a prime example of that, so I'm not sure they're the most suitable studio to make a comment like this one.

Morrowind is clunky, but arguably so are all Elder Scrolls games. - But I would still prefer to play that over Skyrim.
Skyrim was only successful because of the foundations that Morrowind built and the push to console-optimize it.

Skywind looks and plays fantastically and it shows that Morrowind as a game can be played beautifully in 2026, it's building architecture, sound, music, art is less generic than Oblivion or Skyrim.
