For the budget price you could get them for, I would heartily recommend both. With the available patches and mods they will each provide many hours of entertainment.

Actually... yeah, Grumbold is onto a good one here If you can get them for 5-10 currency units each, then they're ok value. Your time could be better spent though

I also STRONGLY suggest you don't buy Morrowwind unless you love being bored to tears.

Morrowind is fun. It would be much more fun if it wasn't for its long loading times and fondness of crashing.

Morrowind would be good if it was set in the Forgotten Realms and had more interesting character dialogue.


But the setting and lack of interesting interaction turns me off every time I try to play it.

The world doesn't need another Forgotten Realms game IMO. Its one of the things I didn't like about Baldur's Gate 2, that lame setting, with elves, orcs, trolls and those freaks with furry feet. Been there done that.

There's alot more in the forgotten realms than elves orcs, trolls and halflings. You must not of played enough games in that setting.

Yes, I have played enough games in that setting. Enough is enough, lets move on, please... A Call of Cthulhu CRPG could be fun, no? Or Transhuman space? Ok, that one is a bit too hard core for most people...

Well, I'm pretty sure that KOTOR2 will be out for XBOX and PC at the same time. And since I've already beaten KOTOR twice, as both dark and light, I'm not going to get KOTOR.

I don't think so. AFAIK the XBox version will be out later this year, while the PC version isn't out until February.

The thing about Morrowind is in some ways its more like a book than a game.
In that you, the player have to roleplay it to get the most out of it. So i guess if your not from a book background(or a pen+paper rpg one), then as a pure computer game, it can come across a little ......easy and sterile?

I've always had a good imagination, i love reading and have played many p+p rpgs, and i have a soft spot for the Elderscrolls games, Morrowind being the most accessible one to date(all though i like daggerfall more for its failed ambition).
If you found KOTOR a little too linier sometimes, you wont find the same with Morrowind, plus all the fan made stuff and expansion packs - easily 100+hours of rpg fun.

Still Oblivion, the next instalment in the elderscolls saga, might be the rpg to end all rpg's. for more info elderscrolls site

Ribannah used to post pretty actively on Civ2, and I think on Civ3 for a while. Alinestra Covella is one of the more active folks in the SMAC community here. I have no reason to think theyre not female.

One of POTM's nerdier friends, seeing I had Civ2 open, once set up a hotseat game of the Fantasy game for us - i hadnt set up a hotseat game before.

There's also Snowflake, formerly known as Honghu, from the SMACDG and OG circle (at least those are the ones I know of). And l'Event of course.

:sigh: girls ......well just my one that is!

She used to post on the elderscrolls forum about the same time i was using it. She doesn't really like Civ type games, although i've tried really hard to get her to see the merrits of CTP2 - if only to get her perspective on those type of games(so i could get her to help in the source code remake).

I think its good for games that more girls take an interest, maybe we can move away from just killing stuff all the time?

The only TBS game ive managed to get her to play and like is Xcom.

But know she has succumed to the Game Cube and tends to like games like Harvest Moon, Animal Crossing and Zelda(which i like too - still it will be awhile before i get a good go at them!, but its cool as i'm pretty much playing LMA manager on xbox all the time).

somebody asked how is not having a computer relevant to being in the 20th(21st?) century. So you do have a computer. What was the point of your saying you previously didnt have one? Do you post from someone elses computer? In that case im sure you could have realized i meant to read email, etc from YOUR OWN computer. Or did you mean to say you post from a Mac? Forgive an old timer like myself, who still sometimes uses "PC" to mean a personal computer, as opposed to a mainframe or mid tier, not necessarily to mean a clone of the IBM PC. I realize thats the more common usage, and one I use myself.
