Oblivion had a decent population

Pretty funny blog where a player played a NPC and blogged his experiences...

daggerfall = you'd be a peasant surrounded by 64 thousand square miles of peasants.Or you'd live in an incomprehensibly big city running a book store or something. It wouldn't be bad unless you lived in a haunted city like Daggerfall

morrowind = the ashlands don't sound too pleasant, honestly. slavery, violent house politics, cliff racers...



oblivion = yeah actually this could be pretty nice.

I was going to say that one, but I was afraid that "average joe" would include being one of the actual statues, since they aren't really all that special except for the endboss, and he couldn't even walk.

That would just be too depressing, although at least when I get stabbed twice in the arm after mulling around a bit I'll just collapse into an empty husk and not feel any more pain. Still, looks sad anyway.

Being any other human would be nice though, what with the garden, and being able to actually walk up on that bridge again, and not being a retarded Romeo martyr.

:lulz: it seems funny so far

My friend is strange ... she'll hijack a house (possibly with a person still living there) then try to rearrange the furniture and go around the world stealing forks and knives from the castle just to fix her dinner table... She shouldn't be allowed to play games! Too scared to attack anyone :lol:

... its funny seeing her running for her life.

Yeah, Morrowind would suck all kinds of awful.  It seems like a majority of the places you go are steeped in abject poverty or are just complete wastelands.  Everyone is living in caves or weird plant things.  There are annoying, lethal monsteres seemingly everywhere you turn.  I suppose if you lived in one of the big fancy cities or castle things you'd be alright.  Even then, it seems like it's just a matter of time before some big demon from hell gets set loose and eats everything.

I had a great empire going on with a number of houses and everything, until I progressed to a point where I had killed a homeowner that was related to a quest I needed to do. That "Belarus Manor" (I think it was called that) became my crib of cribs.

Usually I end up going on a mad spree for wealth via alchemy, stealing from the mages guild and making a bunch of crap potions that everyone seems happy to buy lol... The char I have now is over in Shivering Isles and I'm lugging around a ton of stuff, eagerly awaiting my return to dump it all off. I'd have every house in the game if I wasn't so paranoid that I'd kill an important NPC :)

Zergling rush, most SCV's get killed.
Nuclear strike on command centre, most SCV's get killed.
Any attack ever by a smart human player, most SCV's get killed.

No thanks.
They look cool though.
