If you do play it again, there’s a cool community rewrite of the engine: https://openmw.org/
It makes it more easily playable on modern operating systems and has various quality-of-life improvements, like greater rendering distance and practically no loading times.
And well, Morrowind was kind of my first ‘proper’ game. Beforehand, the best thing I played was a Diablo clone, which came in a box set with 9 other games. So, Morrowind definitely blew me away, but it did also set me up for some unrealistic expectations… 🫠
Yes, you do need the original game files. Personally, I ripped my CD from way-back-when and have it pointed to that, but I’m pretty sure, you can also point it at the game files for Steam and other launchers.

Neat! I assume you still need to have the original game files for that engine rewrite to run?
Haha yeah that is a crazy game to get started with.
