Yeah, it is pretty bad. Four years later, I still haven't recovered and ended up returning to "gaming". Though, I have absolutely no addictions to MMORPG's.Quote:

My dad say he does his best thinking while he is asleep, so perhaps it's genetic.
Ok this diplomacy thing is ridiculous.............
this is another girl anecdote.
when your dancing with this girl my cousin introdices to me from california at a party and you seriously take a moment in the song to check your internet capable phone to see how the last phase went.
im disgusted with myself.
Either get help, or find a girl that games.Quote:

Ah, the girl geek. Although I know a couple, I wound up marrying a non-geek girl. Sometimes I wonder how it would have gone if I could talk RPG and FPS and RTS with the little woman ...Quote:

Thanks to stuff like the DS and Wii, it's not so socially reprehensible for girls to pick up a controller anymore! I've been on that wagon since 1991, but it's good that the rest of sisterhood's caught on at last. xDQuote:

and you wondered why I did PC gaming other than Console gaming. :tongue:Quote:

I fail at 99.9% of them, and that's with stuff like inflation turned off and the difficulty on Very Easy as well; Beskar usually gives me a slight advantage in tech/ducats over my neighbours so that I'm not steamrollered within the first five years. Strategy isn't really my forte, but I enjoy the historical aspects of the game and seeing my country's name in big letters across the map... I can be so superficial when it comes to EU3. :laugh4:Quote:

And I'm ALWAYS an archer in rpgs so I feel qualified to speak on ranged combat. (Not sure why just don't like getting my hands dirty lol)
You can just replace the decisions folder with a clean one, i've been tampering with mine as well, to suit the playstyles of my friends (halved infamy costs, 20 years for a core) We're not using the beta patches, and they non stop complain if its not on very easy with no inflation, so i've been playing plenty of that.Quote:

ah yes archery was far better in obliv. morriwnd archery is crazy, you shoot and it goes off at like a 45 degree angle from where it should haev gone, even when firing downward!Quote:

Best morrowind combo?
Cuirass ofbthe Savior of magic absorption speed enhancers for normal clothes as well. Use the ring from the hollow stump in werewolf expansion. Custom enchanted bow for damage enhancements. Wakizashi custom enchanted to maximize damage and guarantee a single kill. Rock of opening for an amulet using the hlerbu amulet. And the most important thing? Boots of blinding speed baby.
Congratulations you are now invincible
right now, before i get my full daedric, I'm using an Ebony Cuirass, an enchanted Daedric Tower shield with lots of fortify strength, more than enough to cover its weight, and assorted clothing amounting up to somewhere around 80 points of fortify strength, giving me over 900 carry weight. Daedric Claymore enchanted with absorb health on strike 17-19 points for 3 seconds, which basically means health is never a problem, Auriels Bow for cliff racers, bound a Daedric Longsword for minor enemies when i dont want to waste claymore enchantment, with acrobatics at 100, athletics not far behind, and fortify speed about 10 points, i also move very fast and jump far. when i get full daedric i can afford more enchantments to fortify strength and restore magic, which will make me unstoppable with my restore health 55 points spell.Quote:

Simply put, given enough arrows you are invincible
i do admit that i like to back-track and jump with my 100 acrobatics, while firing off arrows from Auriels bow. though with no marksman stores its difficult to buy arrows.
