Maybe not the best ever, but it is definitely in my "Top 5 Best Games Evar", and its also WAY better than oblivion.
While I'm on the subject, the night eye in oblivion was god awful, everything being blue is so annoying.
Edit: Okay, maybe not "better" than oblivion, but I had WAY more fun playing it.

Nope. The world felt completely dead. It really did nothing to draw me into it.
If you consider it a set of rules, yes, it was among the best. If you consider it a "role-playing" experience, it was frankly pretty poor. All you ever were in Morrowind was a set of statistics and a quest log, and the world was nothing more than a static backdrop. At least you could see consequences for your actions in Oblivion.

Funny, I'm playing that one right now and I'm finding a few niggling annoyances about it. First of which, sometimes I don't get any other dialogue choice except the asshole response. I realize that I'm a vampire, but that doesn't mean I have to be an asshole. Second, Get Quest->try to complete quest->to complete quest must do a completely different quest.Statora said:
Anyway, as for Morrowind, it was certainly a great RPG and it gave me many hours of entertainment, however I don't know if I'd name it 'Best RPG Ever'. Maybe best RPG of it's time, yeah, but ever? no, I don't think so. After all it did have a number of fundamental flaws, not the least of which were those bloody cliffracers. Also it did get rather boring walking from place to place (when you weren't getting assaulted by cliffracers). Yeah I know there were the silt striders, but those only went to certain places and cost money.
No, i really liked Morrowind, but i liked Oblivion more... and Oblivion is not even in my Top 10 list of RPG's 
I loved morrowind so much but after playing oblivion i just can't go back. I like the story, the environments, and the dialog much better in morrowind but the combat in oblivion is just so much better that i can't go back.

NOTHING CAN BE THE ALMIGHTY! RANDOLPH DUTCH! EXCEPT A PLAYER WHO DIDN'T ACT LIKE A TARD BEFORE MEETING HIM! (though really really the people he kills must be really fucking incompetent or something cause your the only one able to kill him but lo and behold all it would is one fucker whose fast on his feet with a SMG)
anyway, features my second favourite villain, and makes every fucking design choice i would if i was making a sandbox RPG zombie game, actual roleplaying, a south-park-esque art style, and other goodies make ma favorite.
Okay, asking us to not bring up a game we think actually takes the title, or another game period, really limits this to a 'yes', 'no' or 'third option.' So yeah, I guess that leaves me with: no.
My pick is Fallout 2. I'm a maverick!

BG2 is also my favorite. I did spend a lot of time with Morrowind though. There were still a lot of things that bothered me, like the fact that magic was absolute shit, you could easily get all the skills (so the only personalization is in the order in which you get them) and it was too easy to break the game's difficulty. I think I enjoyed a heavily modded Oblivion more, but I have to admit that I probably spent more time with Morrowind and actually finished it. So, I'd say it's good, but not nearly the best.Candidus said:
