I need something to do while i wait for Skyrim to be released. I've been playing through Oblivion and well, its getting old. I've never tried morrowind or a fallout so what should i do????

Morrowind, because it's TES and you have never played it before. Why play a Fallout game when you are waiting for TES?

Morrowind.

Or Fallout 3.

Both are awesome.

FO3 is pretty interesting if you haven't tried it. MW (if you've never played it) is a little hard to digest after OB (IMO).

Oh. And if you have a Steam account pick up Bioshock and Dark Messiah. Both great 1st person games and really cheap on Steam.

Seeing as we have quite a few months before the game is released, play Morrowind. It will keep you busy a lot longer then New Vegas. But be warned, you may find yourself lost in a world you can't complete before November.........or before the end of the decade for that matter...lol

...or, you could try Daggerfall. :no:

I wanted to vote FONV first, but there's so much more these days. The Witcher. Or try a different branch. Play a shooter or a sim of some kind. Silent Hunter IV (don't play V). Crysis and Crysis Warhead. Or play any of the games that'll be released soon. Like Crysis 2, Shogun 2: Total War, F.E.A.R. 3, Two Worlds 2, Dead Space 2, The Witcher 2, Brink, Gothic 4, Homefront, Dragon Age 2... I'll definitely buy Gray Matter myself. Enough to do. :shrug:

you can try MW, i just tried it and couldnt get into it, it seemed to slow and outdated, people werent walking around things werent really happening but lots of people love it. i think the problem was i played OB first and then going backwards to MW just didnt work for me. im about to start another OB (started one a month ago and contracted vampirism and im a ps3 user and cant get rid of the curse)

If you can get past the not so great graphics -now days- and the honestly terrible combat, I'd say go for Morrowind. It's my favorite Elder Scrolls title because I love the quests, the story, and all the lore it presents. Plus Vvardenfell is just a really fun place to explore. If you just cannot "get into it"
I'd say get Fallout 3 first. It's cheaper than NV and to me, it has a better game world and quests. Then if you enjoy it pick up New Vegas, which has better gameplay.

for RPG.. two worlds 2

for stealth.. far cry 2

Morrowind will occupy you for a few years, not months.

Morrowind will probably keep you occupied beyond Skyrim's release.

You're pretty lucky.

For RPG: Mass Effect 1 & 2.

For Stealth: Manhunt (the first one) [or] Thief: The Deadly Shadows.

:P

I agree with you 100%

Try Minesweeper.

still havent touched my copy of FNV, so its that and Oblivion for me until Skyrim is released

If you enjoyed OB for the combat, try The Witcher or Mount & Blade. If you liked the RP, try Morrowind.

MW takes a lot more effort to get past the primitive graphics and outdated AI packages (I just about shuddered at the sight when I went back, after playing OB for a month - then downloaded some graphics replacers), but the underlying game is far deeper and potentially more rewarding. The combat is far simpler than OB's, merely a "way to resolve encounters". The key difference between the games is that your character's skills in MW MATTER, and you're likely to fail frequently at tasks until they improve; in OB they're secondary to player skills in many cases, and success is automatic. I find that there's no real sense of victory if there's no challenge, and felt that the challenge and the feeling of satisfaction were missing in OB. Taking your most useful skills as Minors made sense in OB, because the game got a lot harder as your level increased. MWs higher proportion of static enemies means that you've got to advance in order to be able to stand a chance against them. The down side is that it gets too easy at the higher levels.

The Witcher is a mostly linear collection of smaller "open" scenarios, where you can go anywhere within the local area (except where you can't hop a 2 foot high white picket fence), but the overall plotline is linear. The combat is mainly based on player skills, by following up with "combo moves" by clicking at the right moment, etc. There are only about 6-10 "real" advancable skills, but dozens of "perks" that the game calls "skills". For example: Alchemy is a so-called "skill". You either have it or you don't, and you have to learn it in one of the earlier missions to complete the mission and move forward in the game. At that point, there are a few "perks" you can get to expand it, but it never goes beyond Level 1. You also have a "set" of armor. It's given to you, and there's nothing better to be found until it's time for you to "advance", at which time you are "given" a better set. The game has "extremely limited" character advancement choices, because you have to take all of them to some degree, and it's only a matter of choosing which to take first, until you get enough points to increase the others. The game gives the the "illusion of choice", but not very much of the real thing.

There are lots of good games coming this spring, like The Witcher 2, Brink, Dragon Age 2 and more.

I'd suggest waiting until those are out.

Other: Nier, all 4 playthrus (don't do Playthru D till ur 4th run thru for it deletes everything you have) with a combo of Oblivion and or Bulletstorm is you are into online play

The thing that I am doing is just that even tho I have not played Nier for along time, getting Bulletstorm along with Neptunia for PS3 so I will be set along with all the anime I have to watch

Eh, I'll likely play anything TES, Deadspace, Fallout 3/NV oh! And S.T.A.L.K.E.R. ... Pretty much what I play usually.lol So I would say go nuts play anything haha! Edit: After all it is your choice... But if you really must and brush up TES Lore, I highly recommend Morrowind, as to be fair out of all the TES games I played Morrowind seems to be much better for getting settled in to the Lore of The Elderscrolls.

Morrowind is a great game. But I voted for New Vegas becasue that is what I am currently playing and it is a great game. If you have never played a Fallout give them a try.

Have you ever played Daggerfall? If not go ahead and lose yourself for endless hours like me!

I started with Oblivion, too. It was the first video game I really loved and played from beginning to end (many times... too many times...). I started with Morrowind after that (when I knew every single line of dialogue by heart and could find every single Nirnroot in the game with my eyes closed), and I know that it feels a bit different and outdated, and the combat is indeed terrible. But I kept playing, and started to enjoy it very much. I can really see now why so many people prefer Morrowind over Oblivion. It has its advantages (level scaling, lore, the general feeling that there is so much more to do and explore,...). Maybe just try again and give yourself some time to get used to it... you may actually start to like it!

And can't you do the "Cure Vampirism"-quest on the PS3? There has to be a way to get rid of vampirism, I'm sure. Go talk to Raminus Polus about it.

I think you will find that it is 'Cryogenic'.
