Anyone else on here play this game? It's so fucking intense when you're blazed :stoned:. Hell it's even amazing when you're sober. A short description of what the game is;

A first person (or third person, you can change the camera) RPG set in a Medieval fantasy world where you can do damn near ANYTHING. If you want your character to be an axe wielding barbarian that goes around crushing people skulls with his warblade, then go for it!! Or you can be a stealthy assassin, sneaking through the shadows and using nothing but a dagger.

It's the sequel to the old PC game Morrowind. Check it out :cool:

What specs you got? I get really decent framerates with my Geforce 7800+ and Athlong 3800+.

I get decent framerates maxed at 1280 x 1024, but it gets pretty horrible in the wilderness.

Athlon 4200+ X2
Leadtek 7600gt
2 gb ram

I have a ATI X800 XT and last time I looked at the comparisons, even though the 7800 Nvidia is a little more advanced (supports HD lighting or whatever), it was still similar in performance.... And I wasnt happy with my FPS being in the low 20s and 30s outside...

I know it is suppose to be a next generation game but back when I bought Oblivion my X800 XT was running $300.... For $300 fucking dollars you should get more then 20s and 30s FPS IMO.

I played it back a few months, amazing game, I'm so looking/hoping for the next Elder Scrolls game(non-mobile). Brilliant graphics, litterally just would find high points and stare out at the view. 73 hours to beat, could have gone longer, but the gates were getting boring.

-nvidia 6600
-2gigs ddr2 566
-pen d 830 3.0

ran great 1280x1024, save larger battles would lag a bit, but still fully playable.

Would totally recommend the add-ons, there were very fun as well.

-AMD FX-60 OC@3 Ghz - Vapochilled* had it at 3.31 *

It saddens me that even though Bethesda spent so long working on Oblivion, the PS3's graphics will match it almost upon release.

Yeah, but most PS3 games I've seen were done in cgi. The games will look nothing like that when they're released, and probably won't for a few years.

True enough... FFXIII looks pretty insane though. And Metal Gear Solid's graphics... but I dunno.
I just think spending so damn long on graphics is foolish as they'll be outdone in less than half a decade.

We've got it on Xbox360. I love it, such a relaxing game. I'm happy to blaze a fatty and go for a walk in the prestine sunshine while it's raining like a bastard outside in the shitty real world.

friend of mine just got it recently, i'm not much for morrowind games... actually i'm not much for games like that period... bout the only things i like and play that are set any time in the far past (pre-wwi era games) are god of war and prince of persia series... but both of those games are very alike both in story line and gameplay.

right now im workin with a lvl 16 khajeet "infiltrator" (class i made up, mix of rogue and mage)

ive beaten the game several times i suppose, i like to do different parts of the game with different characters.. i have a Battlemage with which i do a lot of alchemy / mages guild / fighters guild stuff... i use to have an archer with which i beat the main quest... i use my infiltrator for dark brotherhood, arena, thieves guild, etc.

god i love this game, everything is so detailed
