Completely different kettle of cod really. 2D, isometric, relatively linear, group based and story driven. Also the best game ever made. Morrowind was pretty natty too mind.

Completely different game. Morrowind is solo (and quite lonely I found), BG series is party-based (can have up to 6 and gameplay is about combining their abilities in many ways, though a few hardcore powergamers have completed it solo, no idea why!
), Morrowind is about exploration whereas BG is about following a well-scripted storyline (there's loads of sidequests that you can pick up by ranging a bit further afield, but in general exploration isn't the main point), Morrowind has a weird and beautiful world you can wander around in but terrible NPCs that have nothing interesting to say, whereas BG has fantastic conversations both with the NPCs in your party and with the ones you meet during the game.
