One of the most revered games among hardcore RPG fans is the Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall, a game that is sadly filled with bugs. There is, however, a remake of sorts that fixes many of the issues, albeit a fanwork. This remake is known as Daggerfall Unity, and remade the entire game in the eponymous engine.
Getting the game to work right though, is a bit of a chore and many have been frustrated in trying. Those days are over, however, as GOG.com has made Daggerfall Unity available on the site, and for free.
This ambitious project, launched over a decade ago by Gavin “Interkarma” Clayton, is aiming to bring the unique experience of the classic open-world RPG game to a new generation of gamers. Thanks to the efforts of the GamerZakh, a gaming content creator with a love for classics, you can now enjoy a special GOG Cut of the Daggerfall Unity title.
All you have to do is download the game and simply launch it. The GOG Cut of Daggerfall Unity doesn’t require any special actions or updates on your behalf. Thanks to settings and mods that were selected by GamerZakh you can explore the rich world of Daggerfall with enhanced visuals and gameplay.
However, please note that although we find the experience very enjoyable the work on the title is stil ongoing. Some technical issues might occur, so it’s wise to quicksave often (F9) 😀
