Well maybe, but from what I understand these spells just give an identical effect. Phoenix Power would do the thing anyway.

Well, I like Wizardry series more, even though it had weaker graphics and you had to write down all quests & hints by hans. Morrowind was beautiful, but...
As for space games I think that there wasn't anything greater than ye goode olde Star Control. Of course, I don't like flight simulators in general.

As space games I would list Stars! and Space Empires IV (but not SE-V) as being enjoyable for the same reasons that Dominions 3 is enjoyable to me. Lots of setup options and different styles to play.

Star Control was nice, for a space battle simulator. As I recall though, the early ones at least weren't massive 4x type games. I loved Starflight, and Omnitrend's Universe series.

Turns out Daggerfall holds the world record for the largest game world ever made. Hundreds of times larger than WOW and larger than any MMORPG or any other game world apparently yet made including LOTRO.

The cool thing about Daggerfall is that you can gain a hero reputation in one territory then become a hated villain in the next door territory. Kill the guards, steal their armor, escape across the border to your home territory and sell it at great prices because of your fame.

Considering Daggerfall - Yes, but I still like Wizardry quests more. And there you could have quite different reputations for different factions, too. Actually, you could even spy on one faction for another.
