Beautiful Wife and I have a new obsession. She didn’t come to bed until almost 0100 this morning. A friend mentioned it when they heard we enjoyed playing Diablo II. Honestly, my wife is much more into Diablo than I ever was, I don’t have the patience for the hordes of little gremlin dudes, but this…this is different. And I have no idea how we missed it when it first came out, but I do like it when I can find a “Game of the Year” edition with all the patches and upgrades for about 20 bucks at Target or Walmart.

It’s called The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind and it’s like falling into your computer for the first time again. Nope, never played the earlier Elder Scrolls either, I was more of a Might and Magic zombie.

So what’s different about it? You’re dropped in a world, you don’t know why, you don’t know how, and oh, you can do whatever you want. Pure freedom. If you should be able to do something…you can. You’re not bound by your quests. You’re not limited in your range of movement.

If you’ve played, please add your comments. No spoilers please.
