Is that your final answer? You should be more specific about the game you know I haven't played.

Didn't you play Morrowind? I thought I saw you posting about that earlier in the thread.


Did you attack Sheogorath? Totally worth it.

And you seem to know about this, so I'm guessing you've played Oblivion... or maybe you've just watched someone play it.

Rushy has definitely played Skyrim.  He's said so several times on the other site.  I don't think he was as explicit about Oblivion, but judging by his level of familiarity with it, I would say that he's probably played that too.

He doesn't need to play Skyrim when there's plenty of speed runs on Youtube.

No, but I doubt he's lying about it.  What would be the point?  To get e-cred from us?  PP2 is just going to have to accept that people are allowed to disagree with him.

I'm just going to bask in the moment knowing that I've successfully befuddled PP2 most of the forum.

Steam reports I've spent some 236 hours on Skyrim, 19 hours on Oblivion and 2 hours on Morrowind. Keep in mind that most of my Oblivion days were on a console when I was in high school; I can almost certainly say I've spent more hours on Oblivion than Skyrim.

Also, you guys should lurk moar, if you look at the desktop screenshot in the "life in 4k" thread you can clearly see a Skyrim shortcut sitting right on my desktop.

Morrowind and Skyrim tied for shittiness, right?

I stopped playing Morrowind after 2 hours yet I have 236 hours on Skyrim, so no, not really at all. Anyone who really just loves Morrowind in this day and age is wearing these:



It might have been a great game when it came out but to me hasn't aged well. I'll probably start playing it again here in a few days when I have to travel a bunch; it is one of the few games my Surface Pro can play without exploding.

Translated because it was originally in Russian.  Anyway, I think/hope that the implication in-game will be that these items are forgeries being pawned off on gullible buyers.  The alternative is too lore-bendingly horrific to contemplate.  However, the mention of Akulakhan and the "Second Numidium" is a screw-up.  That won't exist for another eight hundred years.

Appparently I got some sort of vanity pet monkey for being a beta player. I guess now I can look down on all the other players that have no pet monkey.

Not just any monkey, an Imgakin monkey.  This suggests some sort of relationship to the Imga, the intelligent "Great Apes" of Valenwood.  It's odd that we don't see any in TESO, seeing how pretty much all of Valenwood is in the game, but they did add one neat thing about them.  The founder of the Alessian Order, a brutal, monotheistic religious cult from the First Era that sadly turned the First Empire into a tyranny, was a prophet named Marukh.  He's been mentioned in lore books since Daggerfall, but none of them ever mentioned what race he was.  The only reference we had was Kirkbride, who claimed that he was an Imga:

Quote
In any case, it's the True name of the world.

Imagine an ape (Marukh) struggling to say "Tamriel" and you get "Tam! RUGH!"

But then TESO came out, and they confirmed it!

There's lore everywhere, if you look hard enough.

ESO does in fact have a lot of lore lore lore, I'm impressed with the overall story significance of various quests, easily comparable to the singleplayer games. Or it could be that my only other fantasy MMO experience is WoW and it sets the standard pretty low lore-wise.

I can't help but find it odd, though, that once again I am a hero that is saving literally everyone I meet yet I am still forced to do things like pay for repairs. "Oh, you broke all your stuff saving our entire city? That'll be 200 gold for repairs."
