Dunno. I love the game though. XD

If you ever get a compy that can run it, a PS3 or lord forbid a 360 (at least get one with a warranty!)... get Oblivion. Game = rocks.

Can't wait for ESV. o.o

I guess you could say I do it a lot. I mean, we're on a bunch of land with even more around us (100s of acres) so... I hike through the woods a lot. No mountains though, not in MI. :(

Incidentally...Oblivion is being shipped to me from Goozex right now. XD 'Sposedly, my PC can run it. If it can't...Oldblivion.

Any info or love I need to feel?

Awesome sauce. You'll love it. :D

Hmm. Just know that I put over 500 hours into Oblivion. Not the most I've put into a game, but considering I'd play it today if I owned it (360 died, need it for PS3)... yeah. The game has infinite replay.

I looooove the Argonians (sp). Favorite species hands down (I'm sure you can guess why :P ). I mean, they're reptiles. And can breath under water naturally. Soooo awesome. I recommend them. :p

What is your preferred play style in these types of games, normally?

I love them too. I didn't play as them frequently, and did my best to avoid water, but...they were just so cool. XD

Typically, I play as a custom class geared more toward fighting in attributes but mage stuff in skills...at least in Morrowind. I dunno if the system is the same.

Basically, a tank that has smarts and can be a mage or thief if need be. XD

Dead Space 2?

So, you're BJJ, eh?

Thoughts on me joining one of Rillion Gracie's schools that happens to be nearby?

It's similar in Oblivion. You select your skills and such early on, if you choose custom class (which is all I ever did). You can pick blade, block, armor, healing, destruction, etc. Whatever adds up to seven skills. And you can pick two main attributes, too.

Dead Space 2... oh man, I want that so badly. Played the first to death (beat 6 or 7 times, got all achievements, etc.) and know I'd love the 2nd even more. Buuuut... it's $60 right now, so it ain't gonna happen.

Yep, Kissaki-Kai of Shotokan and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu are the two things I take, atm. I did take weapon training too, and loved it to death... but it grew to be too expensive for my current finances. I plan on picking it up again down the road, money permitting.

As to you joining... dude, do it. BJJ is probably the best form of Jiu-Jitsu out there. And if you can get into a good school with awesome instructors? You'll love it. o.o

Yeah...I really need to get training in something. Which, unfortunately, means I need to get a job to pay for said training. It's annoying though, because I can't seem to find any somewhat local places for striking martial arts that aren't karate or TKD. Well, correction: there's one Kung Fu school that I know of, but...no. Just no. So I'll probably end up driving two hours or so a couple times a week to a Escrima/Arnis/Kali (which in addition to unarmed striking would teach a crapton of weapon styles) school in Gainesville, and taking some grappling and ground classes (either the aforementioned BJJ school or another place that's Japanese Jiu Jitsu, Judo, and Sambo) here in town.

When I make this happen, we need to find somewhere in a central location between us and beat each other's brains out, no?

If you have the option, check out Kissaki Kai/Shotokan. That karate style... is lethal. It's close application, focusing on dealing the most damage/pain as quick as possible. Love it. o.o

My shoulder should be proof enough. :p

And yes. Yes, that would be... fun. <_<

You could do that in Morrowind. In fact, I enchanted a pair of boots to do it all the time. :D I...hated the water in that game.

Enchanted armor?

Water can be nasty. Especially with fish that try to eat you in it...

I like it. Didn't really do a ton of enchanting in all my play time, though. Not sure why... too busy backstabbing peepz. XD

Nice. I never got stealthy enough to go that route. XD

Is it "easier" or "harder" than Morrowind, would you say?
