Hmm, let's see in my random quotes... "Hey, let me know if anyone starts saving up to get an Assassin for you". Or maybe "A shame I cannot kill you without a contract; I would love to take you out free." Both quotes are only approximate though.

Well, thanks for the information. You have now made my life much harder, as I need to raise my Willpower to avoid falling into the pit of MMORPGs. Thankfully, my connection is highly unstable, so that would make playing a MMORPG much harder... then again, I did play MMORPGs back in the days when I was disconnected every 32/33 minutes.

Morrowind is an awesome game... I have played Elder Scrolls since Arena..

I played Morrowind on a Athlon 1700XP with 512 megs of Ram... never had any speed, loading, or other issues so I dont know what the problem is with that but it never happened to me.

What did happen is the unpatched game will crash after a bit. Patched I have no problems (still play it).

Flat out the 14 minute guy is simply a cheat. His character didnt know to go do those things. He hadn't even completed the first Blades assignment. If you dont know something, how can you do it?

Morrowind is for RPGers not mutchkins.

BTW there is no reason to Mutchkin Morrowind - its meant to be solved between lvls 20-30.

Well I guess it's processor speed then. ^.^ Basically, those brief pauses in the 14-minute demo thing are 10-15 seconds long for me.

Then again I can cover half a "zone" in a single jump so I'm seeing them every few seconds if I'm trying to travel fast. I'm also running a TON of mods, which doesn't help. :> (75 mods at last count, plus all three expansions)

Download for the client for free players is about 800 mb. The files are distributed via bit torrent.

Look out for in-game ads on billboards though. The first day I tried it, I saw billboards showing "PC Gamer: Galaxy's Greatest Magazine!".

If anyone wants to play AO, I'm "deccan" on Rimor server. Send me a tell, and I'll give you some starting capital and equipment.

In-game ads aren't that big of a deal, it's a inventive way of advertising if it's incorporated into the gameworld.

Well, as a great man once said, "Resistance is futile!" Never played a true MMORPG, so I figure if I don't have to pay a thing, I may as well give it a go to see if I even like it. deccan, expect a request for funding soon.
