army

I have to change my answer... I have a new hobby, collecting people, ESPECIALLY NAKED NORDS! you just lure them to your fortress, and set them up in regiments... I was always dissapointed that I dditn get proper guards (even my telvani creatures didnt help me... you see i was being attacked by a guar, i let it follow me to my fortress, and guess what... nothing happened. my centurions just STOOD THERE!) so i becan collecting in my new game, i have about 20 different people i 'escorted' to my house. lol, lets see some assasins try to get into there! ahhh its hilarious...

funniest: hearing grunts talk in Halo, "dont hurt me!" "little people and children first!" "i get his helmet!" "run awayyyy!!!"

scariest: in every shooter good or bad, no matter what game.... i get so freaked out, i was playing doom3 at a store earlier today, and i stepped out, then was blinded, and shot todeath.... thats like my worst nitemare.

it doesnt matter if its not my saved game, if i dont intend on continuing playin
(like at store) i am jumpy/nervrous/tightthroated/stomachinknoted.

its the worst thing ever

For me the best thing that happened was when I was in Caldera, the scamp(creeper) didnt give me a fair deal so in the way i always do things i stared trhowng fireballs around, of course ive been playing for a few days so my spell is custom made, deals near to 300 dmg, not all that much but im only lvl 10, anyway i laid waste to the town then moved on and killed Balmora, Vivec, Ald Ruhn Sadrith Mora Tel Fyr and several other insignificant towns, it was awsum, at th end i counted the bodies, close to 80 of them, anyone else who has had a similar experience msg me

From what I gather:
1. You used cheats
2. You never look at the deals other merchants gave you

Some of the most dramatic moments I had were in Vivec, on my first character. One of them was when I accidentally Almsivi'd from Seyda Neen to the Vivec temple at sundown. That was very impressive. The second time was when I saw Vivec up close for the first time, when I accidentally clicked Vivec from the stilt strider menu. I was simply awed by the sheer size of the foreign quarter alone.

i've had several scary moments one was at the very start of the game and i was on a bridge afterr leaving vivec i think but i was still very new to it i decided to go for a sleep not having seen much i woke up with a very large guar in my face which was quite scary.
another is going through a door and seeing an ordinator.quite scary.

a funny moment was when i couldnt be bothered playing anymore so i decided to attack someone in the ebonheart harbour i then ran onto a boat having about 3-4 people trying to kill me i decided to stay out of the water as i shot them with arrows i then looked to see where the rest were and they had all drowned.quite funny.

EDIT:i just met crassius curo a new nightmare has appeared in my dreams

the scariest part of the game for me was when i first started, had no idea how to play and got stuck in the foyada and ran all the way to ghostgate from the old dwemer bridge in a blight storm chased by cliff racers, rats and a few lesser daedric critters.

the best was when i finally found that #(*$^#*^% cavern of the incarnate or seeing Dagoth Ur's little flower hat. I thought that was pretty sweet.

"Hi, im the source of pure evil. do you like my flower hat?"

Rookierookie i resent that you say used cheats, the xbox game has no cheats that i have yet heard of, and besides the bastard was only offering me 70 gold for a 500 item, so i pwned their asses.. without cheats

1. The x-Box has fill health and magica cheats.
2. Creeper always offers full price. The only way what you say can be true is if you were offering a weapon or armor that was not it top condition.
3. Watch the language.

Whoo, beat Fable to it.

Funniest moment?

Probably just after I got to that falling mage dude, forgot his name. I am not in the habit of reading journals right away, but I saw those cool scrolls on him and tried one out. WHEEEEEEEE!!!!! SPLATTTTTTTT!!!!!!

i've had two scary moments in morrowind... 1 was when i used a divine or almsivi intervention and i think i ended up in malog mar... i think... any way just as i got ther..."Justice Never Sleep!" AN ORDINATOR DEAD IN MY FACE I MEAN THE ENTIRE SCREEN WAS FILLED WITH ORDINATOR FACE! my 2nd scariest moment was when i was doing the hiaalu house missions, the lady in balmora tol me i need som1 to support me so i thought hey y not that gy in vivec hiaalu canton ( cant rmember his name ) ? at this point i had finished the main quest so when i went to get his vote he didn't umm... show... his... inner side or self... anyway so i went to him for his support to advance in the great house and umm... he said... "why hello there what why of course I wouldn't mind being supporter if you don't mind doing a little favor for me" he said somtin like that and everytime i try to ask him wot the favor is he said "Don't be shy it's okay just take it slow" or somtin so then i looked in my journal it said i had to TAKE MY CLOTHES OFF IN FRONT OF HIM! So... i guesss u no my scary moment... it left a scar in my char

and now when ever i talk to me he always says somtin like hello pudding and of course u can dumpling

I didn't say you did. I said you could've.

And Creeper can't try to cheat you. He's not an playable race so he has no disposition. He only pays full price.

[QUOTE=werebeargoddess]Probably the funniest moment for me was when Tarhiel fell out of the sky. I didn't see him at first, and I just heard this yelling and stuff. I was pretty freaked out, because I didn't see anyone at first. Then I saw his body on the ground, and realized what happened. I had to fall back to a saved game so I could see him fall.[/QUOTE]

the scariest moment for me was, when playing it with a friend behind who'd finished the game, he said "go to the ghostgate..."
So there I went, a level 0-1 character off to Ghostgate. then suddenly my vision was going red... and I kept looking around and around, but couldn't find the source of the attack. So I ran, dropped dead, and discouvered there was a cliff racer flying over me, and i was lying on a shalk (those beetle things...). Man, was I pissed!

OT: what's this about this tarhiel guy? where do I find him?

Sentleth · Post by **Sentleth** » Mon Aug 30, 2004 5:41 pm

the scariest thing thats happened to me is, when i was following a High-Ordinator, just walking behind him, copying his every move (as you do

) then suddenly he turned straight around and because i was so close to him, this really loud *Ching* and "You Shall Pay... With Your Blood" came booming into my headphones, i quickly went onto equipment screen to notice i had a 56000 bounty on my head

(dont worry, i survived, "ahhh the wonders of god mode")
funniest thing, is probably, just reading what Thrud says in Godsreach in Mournhold, he's really stupid he speaks like "Thrud sad, Thrud got nobody to read Thrud books" never fails to get me laughing

best thing, is definetly taking on all the Hands Of Almalexia with god mode

jus watch them fall one by one, then rotate the screen around your character and see all the dead bodies and this guy stood there like nothings happened

Why do you cheat? is it because you have no skill? or because you are just another person who like sto ruin the game for himself? either way cheaters suck

Rane · Post by **Rane** » Tue Aug 31, 2004 6:51 am

Why all the hostility? Everyone is free to play any way they feel like. If you don't like cheating then it's your problem. No need to tell the world about how you think that "cheaters are stupid and have no skills and that they suck". I won't even state what my opinion about flamers is....

And cheating doesn't mean in anyway that you have no skills or can't beat the game. Sometimes, more than often even, cheats can be relaxing and amusing. They allow people to do whatever they want to without limits. If someone wants to become immortal and go around killing everyone then it's their choice. If someone wants a certain item and use a code to get it then it's their decision.

So saying that cheats will ruin the game may be correct in your situation. What other people think and do is a totally different case.

Edit: Could as well make some use of this post and write my own funniest, scariest and best moment of my time with Morrowind.

Funniest would definitely be the first time I played Morrowind (can't believe I still remember that day, since it was over a year ago

) and this Tarhiel guy falls from the sky. His scream didn't scare me at first but then I realised it didn't come from anywhere around me but instead from above me. I feared some mage was attacking me while screaming a peculiar barbarian war cry.
Then there was the thump and I saw his body behind me. God, was I relieved. Searching his body I found the 3 (or were they 4?) Ikarian flight scrolls and thought that they could come in handy as I was heading to Balmora and didn't feel like walking or paying the silt strider lady for taking me there. So I used the scroll and thought that the magic would only affect my forward jumping ability, not my movement upwards (don't ask why). Then I jumped. The results remain for everyone here to figure out on their own. Let's just say a red pond was to be found somewhere between Ald-Ruhn and Balmora after that.

Scariest would be the first time ever I saw an Ash Vampire. I was expecting something of the size of an Ash Goul or a little bigger. The thing was waiting for me right behind a door and when I entered it looked down at me and cast some spell. Over half of my health was gone at once, which was quite rare for my character that was quite strong already. I can't, however, remember which one of us walked out of the fight as the winner, but my feeling is that I was the one who became a new addon to the already rottening furniture.

The best moment for me is when I got to know that the Arena in Vivec actually worked as an Arena. That would be when I was challenged by Bolvyn Venim to a duel. Before that I was really upset about that no fights ever took place in the Arena. Even though I was a part of the fight and not the crowd it was still a great feeling. Of course I've downloaded loads of mods that use the Arena but the best fights are still those of the original game itself.

I agree...
anyway, Morrowind is an offline game, so if you cheat nobody really cares (except maybe the NPC's

)
Offline I'm am known to be a cheater, but whren playing online, I never cheat...
It's just polite towards other gamers. Sure, I'm a friggin' camping bunnyhopping sniperfreak, but that's just part of the game

yes you are right, cheating can be relaxing, but what i hate is cheaters who think no1 can create a good char without cheats

[SARCASM]Well, that's true...[/SARCASM]

I know it's perfectly possible to create the ubercharacter without cheats, but it takes so friggin' long

I've just started again, and I have to admit, there's only one cheat i've used, and that was the clipping one, because I was stuck in a tight spot.
I had fallen down a small crevasse, couldn't work my way up, and didn't have any flying potions or spells... and I hadn't saved for a long time, nor had I rested... :s

Anyway, on topic:

Scariest moment: I had the footsteps and effects volume way up, so I kept hearing this kwama forager hopping around, but I never saw it!
Turned out it was on the other side of the hill (me in balmora, KF in bitter coast...)
and hearing the footsteps of the guards across the river... just freaky
