Oblivion uses all the same stuff from Morrowind and the previous incarnations plus probably a few more....they just have a huge backstock of stories they re-use in the games. Also morrowind was a MUCH better environment flavor and immersion wise that Oblivion. If they had Morrowind's setting...

Here's my favorite Yeats poem: When you are old: Whrn you are old and gray and full of sleep And nodding by the fire, take down this book, And slowly read, and dream of the soft look Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep; How many loved your moments of glad...

There are a couple I wrote in class while really bored (English major). Monsters Are Monsters made of wisps of fear Or solid patches, steel and bone? Of heartless moments trapped in ichor, of desolate thoughts, abandoned, alone? Do Monsters live in minds of children or crevices of...

uuuh. wha?

Island could be great. On top of ship transportation (a la morrowind or other), it would be awesome to be able to buy your own boat and pilot it. Anything from small dinghies to full on merchant/naval vessels, either through quests (imperial navy? pirates? merchants? mermen? fishermen? or by...

I believe i read somewhere everything is basically 2 buttons along with the directional controller... different colors on some items also tell you how you can interact with the specific object

I play guitar, own an acoustic an a fender strat lonestar. I also play a little piano from when I was younger, but not that good at it. I like playing classic rock and blues, like jimi hendrix, stevie ray vaughn, bb king, etc. also like modern rock and stuff like sublime, so i'm a bit all...

Hehe I loved shooting down helis with a tank when they were stupid enough to fly low and in front of you... One of my more fun kills involved sticking C4 to the tail end of a full enemy blackhawk about to take off in Battlefield 2. I waited for it to get a little air before blowing the crap...

That's actually just LA, and most things south of it. Central Valley (between LA and SF) and northern California are like different countries. I grew up in California (half the in Santa Barbara, half near San Jose), born in Europe though, I like the San Francisco Bay Area and the central...

Fatburger is good... but also super expensive, which is why it doesn't get my vote over in-and-out

I'm pretty young (24) and have always read a lot. Then again my entire family reads a lot. I think I read LOTR around 6th grade all the way through and have steadily consumed a large amount of Sci-fi and fantasy in my youth (since I graduated college my reading has plummeted like a rock...

I've had a weird recent trend of playing old games... in the last few months I've played Lands of Lore, MOO 2, and just installed Fallout and Fallout 2.

Most accurate and awesome description of their voices I've heard yet. Anyway, this topic has been tread and re-tread millions of times on this forum. IMO, bottomline, if you took Oblivions game mechanics (battle, magic) and graphics and put them into the setting and storyline of Morrowind...

Your post is so far the only one that makes me want to play it. I'm on the side of gamers that actually want some character and story depth rather than pure run and gun lets kill the hookers for no good reason action. I actually just bought fallout 1 and 2 recently because I wanted a game that...

Star Control 3... why? Was it so hard to not utterly screw up a good series?
