Shared on Fri, 03/07/2008 - 22:46The weather here has conspired to keep me gaming. It might have been nice the last time I blogged, but I am sick to death of below-zero (F) temperatures in March. At least we didn't have tornados.
Fifty or sixty hours into Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, I am beginning to wonder if I have OCD. Creating spreadsheets to make sure you level up properly? Checklists of which dungeons I've scoured? The game is huge! Undoubtedly there is too much to learn for a first playthrough, so I will try not to be to anal about perfection on a first character. But will I have this game finished before summer?
We're having a totally derailed conversation about the dow in the Off Topic section. It started out as a topic about the dow. Then it went off into five other tangents, and I'm afraid I'm responsible. I have rabbit-trail disease (I think I got it from a rat in Oblivion). It sure is more fun than watching the markets. During times like this past few weeks, I just don't look.
Three days before the DLC comes out for Mass Effect, but Oblivion might have me too busy to play it right away.
On a different note, even though it's a re-run, I can tell that the writers are back to work. Jay Leno is pretty funny for a change. He's only on, though, because I am writing this instead of playing my way into the Mages Guild.
I'm going to make a spell called "silence" that I can bring out of the game world and cast it at the politicians on their campaigns, and other celebs as necessary. I just wish I could live in a place like oblivion for a while; at least until a gate opens up and daedra come pouring into the world. That wouldn't be much more fun than a close race between Republicans and Democrats a mere seven months before the election. Like I said, the news...don't get me started. Too many soapboxes, so little time.
I think I'll go grind a few levels in a game. My grandkids would be ashamed of me, if I had ever made any.
Notes from a place where Oblivion froze over.
