I may get the Museum full, and move to Bruma permanently. Damn I want the rest of Cyrodiil - but I'm not sure I can stand SSE to get it.... And - I just cant go back to Oblivion.... even with OCOv2, the body/face/animations are just - not doable for me. Edited by Serethil, Apr 2 2018, 06:53 PM.

I am giving a real thought to TES online.. if only for a short time to explore and do some of the quest's that don't take a group. Though I can't do that here, not with our internet.. and I wish that you had better, cause I think that would be great for an explorer.. |

Yeah, that was why WoW and RIFT appealed - until Blizzard went bonkers, and Trion went to so much social crap and groupfests I couldn't stand it. I managed those games just fine on my satband. Yes, they were laggy when grouping (which I only did with friends and family for obvious reasons....) but they were certainly playable. And neither of them used much bw - WoW less than RIFT, but neither of them more than maybe 20mb a day. I looked at ESO, but my granddaughter had played it and wasn't enthused, then daughter tried it and liked it FAR less than either WoW or RIFT. |

Ah... well I won't be trying ESO anytime soon.. as Michael kinda hog's the BW with Titanfall online.. which is fine, most of the time.. Gad's I wish he liked exploring, cause his FPS games.. causes him to cuss and fuss at the game.. A really good on-line shooter of one kind or the other, that he could get into would be very nice.. but older games just don't appeal to him graphically. |

Well.... I can actually understand that. After exposure to graphically "forward" games, I can't deal with old graphics either! |

True.. I can get into some.. DAO doesn't have the best graphic's in the world, but the story.. now that is worth the older graphics, which really aren't as bad as Oblivions... But I really wanted to get into Never Winter Nights, but... the very beginning of it really put me off. I might try again one day.. cause I keep reading how good the story line is.. |

Eh.... NWN left me cold. First, there was the entire war over the "new" vs the "old" (on AOL for chrissakes! as if that was something golden to reach for....) and believe me, when I say war - well, think WWV or WWVI.... it was.... the most toxic environment I've ever been in, and LadyontheMoon is chump change in comparison. Anyway, the SPMR games were okay, but they didn't follow Ed's lore well at all. He apparently tried to protest but the lawyers got there first. I played them, but.... well.... at the same time I was RPing on a forum where we took the RP in the direction Ed had intended, and that was FAR more satisfying overall. Ed made a lot of money (relative to the time) off the FR franchise, but he was - saddened - that Bioware chose to so mangle his epics. I met him once, and corresponded with him for several years (in actual handwritten letters! though I wondered that he could read them.... My handwriting is ABYSMAL!) He's quite a guy. |

A lot of folks at Chorrol are ESO regulars and love it. You can do something like 90% of the game by yourself, I think. I have it for PS4, but never devoted more than two or three hours to it. I had fun running around on Stros M'Kai last time I played, though. |

On the NWN forum you mean? I didn't really know there was one! And if you're talking AOL.... I didn't know they still existed period. |

I used AOL once. When I had a totally antique IBM laptop with an external modem which I could ONLY use AOL with while out elk hunting. Bad experience overall. Never touching it again. |

No NWN... though yes AOL does still exist.. and I still have an active account... free life time account.. so as long as they exist and remember to log in once in a while ( which I DO forget to do ) I have an account and a couple of friends that I still "chat" with.. which I like cause you can instantly create your own ( private or not ) chat room. The NWN forum is small and can go week's with no one chatting.. then boom.. 30 to 40 posts in a day.. |

I used the crap out of AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) when I was in High School. I didn't have a cell phone until after I got a job. |

This is how I feel about it sometimes, even without the extra snow. Couldn't do it though since I enjoy the rest of Cyrodiil as well but day-ehm, that was some beautiful pixies! |

I'm glad you enjoyed them miro! Bruma (Beyond Skyrim version ) is really stunning. The quest lines are fun too for the most part - some are a little buggy, though the 1.3.3 update seems to have fixed most of it. |

Breaking free What's this? A headline? Why, yes indeed! For today, just now in fact, I did something I haven't done in a long time. You see, over the years I have come to treat Lothran's adventures around Cyrodiil pretty much how I treat Bruma and the Jeralls. But while I do want to feel isolated and stay in one place in the snowy mountains during the winter season, that shouldn't be the case with the other cities and areas during the rest of the year. I guess I projected my winter habits there as well and only strengthened that behaviour as years went by. But no more! I think early Easter forced me to break free from that because even though I still follow what cities I visit and in what order, I no longer linger for weeks as I used to. No longer do I "wait for the right moment" to move on, instead I just move on and do what I used to do in my early years; roam free to my heart's content! Staying in one place is nice in the cold months but now it should be all about moving around, covering great distances, which is what I did just now. Lothran was by the Isolated House but instead of going back to Skingrad as has come to be expected of him, he went N-NW and visited Brindle Home and Weatherleah before -gasp!- going back up into the Colovian Highlands! He went just north of Sanguine's shrine and then southwards toward Ales Camp, where he now has spent the night in his tent. Next session will probably be spent with more trekking whilst moving slowly towards Anvil County. Funny moment: While trekking through the Highlands, Lothran spotted a deer being chased - by a ghost! :D |
