That sounds about right. I remember I was neglecting my MC-raiding duty when Oblivion was released, and that was during Vanilla. I was playing / modding Morrowind up untill then, and haven't played it since I got my greasy paws on Oblivion.

bwah, just got it and modded the crap out of it following some online guide, of course everything goes to shit as soon as it try to start a new game...
just going reinstall it tomorrow with just a little amount of mods that make it look a bit nicer

a small little rant:
dang distractions. Also, why was I left in bronze after I won my placement match vs a silver? I even beat a rank 5 gold last weekend...
But, I'm working on the journal. It's taking time, though.

One! One vote for imperial as the race choice. Pathetic provincials don't like the iron heeled might of the empire I see. I spit on you second class scum.

While this is not my thread, I might actually consider stream something like this from September. I had an idea of streaming random games, because there's always been a dozen or two people watching my stream even if I just leveled in WoW and I had several sources telling me that it's nice seeing something non-SC2 games every now and then.
I've never played Morrowind past the first few levels. I have two guy ideas - either an orc or a dunmer - both being military leaders before getting imprisoned for backstory. But if I ever played again I would consider playing as a chick, because I vaguely remember something about being a bride in a nightmare. It's been a good while I played a noble character (psychologically, not background-wise).
It would probably be a very plot driven since I barely know anything and most of that is just from reading and not actual playing. And knowing how much time I'd have it wouldn't be frequent and it could easily never happen. Keep me bugged in PMs if you really are interested. Especially once you see my chess stream go online in about four weeks or so as that will be the time I'll have access to my desktop PC again.
One thing that I remember and I would love to do for sake of RP is gathering enough raw ebony to have a full set of ebony armor tailored for my character personally and then enchant them on my own. I've always been much for self-creating equipment.

Hopefully, I'll be done before September ^^

posting in the thread helps :D

Inspired by this thread, I'm starting a game soon! Not entirely sure what character to play though - either I'll take some light-armored magic user, or a light/medium-armored thief thing. We'll see as I go along.
Edit: Hrm, that's annoying. Crashes on startup due to some of the Bloodmoon files. Trying to reinstall now, checking if that helps.
Editedit: Reinstalling it works. I guess installing Tribunal after Bloodmoon had it overwrite some dependables Bloodmoon needed. Reinstalling Bloodmoon corrected the overwrites.

I would recommend light armor over medium. Even with the official plugin for adamantium armor, medium armor is somewhat lackluster in my opinion. While adamantium is cheaper and easier to get than glass, it has lower def rating and weights a lot more. If you have tribunal you will get a set of dark brotherhood armor (light) fairly early and that stuff is awesome.
Late game, if you have enough strength, I would recommend switching to heavy armor in some parts.
I played with a 3 magic, 4 stealth, 3 combat character with light armor and shortblades and ended up using a mix of glass armor and heavy armor artifacts. Though I have a pretty high strength, thanks to acrobatics and permanent +20 from a glove.
Though that just happens to fit my 'playstyle'. Could be that you'll be happy with medium. But most ppl recommend either heavy or light armor.

Thanks for the reccomendation. I'm not going for game power in what I want to use though - I simply prefer the look and feel of medium armor.

Granted, if you can get your hands on some Indoril or orcish armor, that stuff looks simply awesome. =) (But remember: dont speak with an ordinator while wearing indoril helmet and/or breastplate, they will get mad.)

I recently started with a new game. Usually I chose light armour, short blade, stealth etc. but now I'm trying heavy armour and I've joined house hlaalu, never tried their quests before. The downside of starting with a new character is that it's so sloooowww compared to the other one :p especially because I decided to walk pretty much everywhere, instead of going in lazy siltstrider mode all the time...

Also, with heavy armor, I recommend Axes :D

yeah I know... but in my previous game I didn't really walk anywhere, and I kind of like running into random people with random miniquests, and exploring the map a bit more ^^ though if I have to hop up and down between Balmora and Vivec all the time (for example) I may just go lazy mode again :p

new journal, finally. + Show Spoiler +As I woke up from my slumber, I decided that I wanted to go far a walk. In my walk, I stumbled upon a small Imperial Fortress. Inside, there were many Imperial Soldiers. One of them in particular was very rude to me. When he turned to face me again, I put my fist in his face, and in the confusion, slipped away unnoticed. I laughed to myself as I walked back to town, and to the House Hlaalu building in town. As I walked into the poorly lit building, I was tasked with the assignment of convincing a Vivec merchant to stock guar hides bought from House Hlaalu. After an annoying trip, the alchemist in question was easily swayed, and I was on my way back. Unfortunately, while I was gone, someone had murdered an important House Hlaalu member. Guess who had to figure out who did it? I eventually got the maid to talk, and she pointed me towards a certain Dunmer of the Council Club, the local Cammona Tong hangout. After stabbing him multiple times in the chest and taking his valuables, I was given 1,000 septims for my work. I was starting to have more money than I knew what to do with. I then felt a little tired of working for House Hlaalu, so I walked myself to the house of Cosades. He gave me the task of getting information from some trainer in the Fighter's Guild. He sent me on some odd errand to get him a puzzle box from an old Dwemer ruin. It wasn't that much trouble, since I found the room where the box was in rather easily. After killing the bandit boss who had the box, I gave the little thing back to the guild trainer, and recieved a package of notes. After giving these to Caius, I was asked to get even more information, but from an Orc in the mages guild. After almost falling down the dimly lit ramp the had, the Orc lady was more than willing to help, but only if I got her a skull from some ancestral tomb. After stumbling around in the dark, killing ghosts and bonewalkers, and not afraiding of anything, I felt around in the darkness for the skull the Orc wanted, and eventually was able to find it. PIcking it up, I felt my way back out of the crypt, and got onto the Seyda Neen Silt Strider to Balmora. Upon giving the lady her damn skull, I was given another package of notes to give to Cosades. As I drudged back up to the old man's house, rain started to come down, forcing me to go even faster on my weary legs. I almost fell through the door, handed Cosades the notes, and left without speaking to him. I stumbled down to the Lucky Lockup, paid my ten gold, and dropped onto the bed, falling asleep instantly. Pics will be in the OP version.
