Most embarresing moment in Morrowind: One of my first, first-level characters, un-optimized and very weak, got killed by a scrib. It just kept paralizing him and he got nibbled to death, without being able to take a shot.

Since there is AO pushing in a morrowind topic, why not push Guild Wars.It seriously kicks ***, it's like morrowind with a team. There is less class customization, so no more building up every skill in the game to 100 through trainers, but that's more a balancing thing so you have each party member truly diverse, you need a tank warrior, a healer, a caster, and a maverick for special tactics.

Some people on these forums might call it a "clickfest" because it's real time, and sometimes quick decisions and reflexes are required, but I think it adds a nice action element to keep things from getting boring and dull. Careful planning before you head out eliminates the "clickfestines".

If anyone wants to get together in guild wars, look up Thora Von Clemson, or Etna Krichevskoy.

GW is too competitive for me altho I do understand that some of the developers have blamed it lately for the slowdown in beta updates

Yeah, I realized also that AgentZero started this thread to ask for opinions on Morrowind and I sort of distracted him with AO. Heh. Morrowind is a good enough game that I wonder if what I did wasn't a crime of some kind.

Personally, the big reason why I'm playing AO instead of some other MMO is because it has a downloadable client. For many newer MMOs, even if the client is sold online and downloadable, there's still a "Not Valid for Customers Outside USA" condition.

Distracted, yes, but happily distracted! I know Hugh Manatee is a fan of Guild Wars, how about anyone else. I figure between GW & AO, and SEV of course, my gaming needs will be thorougly satified.
