Is Arena worth the trouble?

Post » Thu Oct 02, 2014 1:05 pm

So I've finally managed to beat all of the Elder Scrolls games except Arena, and I guess I'd feel more complete if I did go and beat that game too. I actually really liked Daggerfall (maybe more than Oblivion, but I'm not sure), but for the longest time I've had no interest in Arena.

The only reason I got to enjoy Daggerfall was because I could remap the controls to my liking; I'm not sure I can handle a first person RPG with no mouse look, and especially not one that's by all accounts the worst game in the series. But it is free, and it is the only game in the series I have yet to beat (spinoffs notwithstanding).

Now, if I do go and play Arena, what advice can you give me pertaining to wrangling the controls, mechanics, bugs, and all that?
