I was searching for a free open source game engine with an interface to help me easily make a game similar to Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall or Doom (original). With 3D geography, 3D first person camera, but 2D sprites. Can I do this with Enigma?

Yes. 3d capabilities are not that great in ENIGMA, but great enough for games like that. As it is pure C++ under the hood, then theoretically you could add shaders and stuff like that, but right now its mostly basic 3d.

thats good  :) but I couldn't find any tutorials in the wiki or the forums of how to do it.

I'm more worried about sprite animations, does Enigma have a sprite animation function? I was wanting to make 10-sided sprite characters showing each 45 degree angle out of 360 degrees and top view and bottom view. Any help would be appreciated.

Look at GM examples. ENIGMA examples are scarce, while GM has an abundance.
