You’re totally right, haha. I was just so excited while posting that, in my hasty attempt to include the later games’ communities, I just blanket-statemented the whole series! Thanks for catching that 😅
It's understandable 😁, Morrowind is definitely when the series started to get more mainstream audience, and the older ones are not talked about a lot. I had never even heard of them before trying Morrowind, I rediscovered them later mainly because I can't let a game drop a "3" on me without wondering what came before.
Doesn't help that there was a big design shift between Daggerfall and Morrowind (more than anything between TES 3-4-5), and they're very different games.
Daggerfall did have a bit of modding though. Most quests were procedurally generated using quest templates, like "[type of NPC] sends you to [type of dungeon] to find [McGuffin] for [reward]". I remember a mod that added lots of new quest types for more diversity.
