Without a doubt Morrowind for me.
Halo and Diablo also, in different genre.
Damnit I was hoping I was in fast enough to be the Morrowind fan girl post but you've already mentioned it lol. Still play Morrowind, my favorite game, and the primary reason I'm in the game dev field.
I wasn't even the first, someone else posted it also while I was typing my answer.
I didn't even re play it that much. I think in the end I probably have more playtime on Oblivion. But much better/stronger memories from Morrowind. It was maybe because I had less video game experience to compare it with, but this one clearly left a big mark on me. I still have incredible goosebumps when "the road most travelled" or "nerevar rising" sounds start playing from my playlists.
The gameplay maybe clunky compared to today, especially to combine weapon and magic. But everything else was so amazing for the time, and some part are still much better than recent games.
I even had a talk with someone at an "ai in game dev" conference who took as an exemple the way the diary/quest log of Morrowind was working.
