Playing Morrowind really spoiled me for the rest of the Elder Scrolls series. Many gameplay elements of it were trash, but the ability to circumvent so many of them with magic/alchemy more than made up for it. Oblivion and Skyrim somewhat improved the gameplay, but they removed the option to become a god through exploiting magic.

And Morrowind removed mechanics from Daggerfall, like climbing walls and giving yourself perks and flaws at character creation.

And Arena before that had a spell to pass through walls. That broke things infinitely worse than levitation ever did!
