Just One More Level, Just One More Level, Just One More Level

By Daniel

So some of you did in fact notice that I’ve dropped off the face of the earth over the past few days. It’s cool guys, I’m back with an old love. That is to say, I’m playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion again. I remember playing it on my laptop and clocking about 160 hours on my toon on there, and it was one of the first games I bought for 360. I finally finished the main quest, and finished the Shivering Isles content two days later. My main character, who was a pure warrior, built as a dungeon crawler (look ma, no magic; yes, the game’s perfectly beatable without ever casting a spell) has about 70 hours on him at level 28, and I’m working two new characters, a more or less pure Atronach-signed mage (very difficult in the opening levels, not gonna lie) and an evil toon that was designed to level up quickly and I think I’ll eventually try and build him for endgame (level 30+) dungeons, and try to get enough gear for 101% damage reflection and 100% magic resistance (very possible to get both in one set of gear with a little luck), then stalk the world as an assassin.

Don’t worry about me, I’m fine. :D

Also got my own bottle of Terre d’Hermes yesterday, been wearing it for two days now in an attempt to really understand it. So far I still don’t, but it does smell better than what Hermes sent me in their little sample spray. Couldn’t tell you why.
