Morrowind seems to be the last enjoyable Elder Scrolls game.

I played several games (on amd64) under VirtualBox since WINE@amd64 (even with ivoras package) is limited to 2D only, we will have to wait for WINE64

Neverwinter Nights is a big sh!t, they even screw-up the whole DnD3 implementation, and yes, Icewind Dale I & II are mostly hack'n'slash on simplified DnD2 rules, Baldur's Gate I & II are more cRPG like then Icewind Dale, but still not best. IMHO You should focus on Planescape: Torment, a trully beatiful cRPG. Fallout 1 & 2 also are very 'RPG' IMHO. There is also an interesting 'bastard' called Lionheart, which is something like Baldur's Gate on Fallout's S.P.E.C.I.A.L system, works quite well, I found that game also enjoyable.

There is also Temple of Elemental Evil using DnD3, alos found that game quite enjoyable.

Not really RPG's, more strategies with RPG elements, the well known Heroes ]I[ ... and a lot less known tour-based strategies called Disciples I and II.
