It depends on your definition of 'roleplaying'. If you think roleplaying is about getting a story told to you while drama queen companions cry on your shoulder about how much they hate their dad, while your dialogue options are 'yes' or 'yes but with snark' then yeah, Elder Scrolls doesn't really fit the bill.feel like roleplaying has never been a priority in Elder Scrolls even back when it was debatably good. Morrowind is not remembered fondly because of complex moral choices or an emotionally engaging narrative,
It's a series about being an adventurer in a fantasy world with wide possibilities in regards to the expression of your character. You can't choose who to stick your cock in by pressing the [flirt] option or whatever but you can be a sneaky thief, an assassin, a mage, a barbarian warrior, or a mix thereof and pursue your character's personal narrative and progression however you see fit.
That shit is peak roleplaying. Roleplaying through gameplay and player expression.
