Knights of the Nine: HANDS-ON

[Lord Chambers]

I am waiting for the Third World to take over the entire porn business in ten or so years. You'll have small dirt poor countries specializing and making a large part of their GDP from selling smut... That's where globalization is heading.

Are you talking?

Cracks?

You win! (and I see you've already chosen your prize Laughing er Pete, if you could...)

What is that supposed to mean?

I don't like "industrial" porn with a few exceptions. The acting, the camera angles and the positions almost always look retarded. Nothing beats amateur porn.

Windoze is the most pirated bit of software on the planet. In fact a friend of mine bought a new computer with XP preinstalled - shop went bust a few months ago and she's started getting the 'this copy of Windows may not be genuine' message, so even assumed legal copies may or may not be so. As for the prize crack, I just thought the image of some kid paying 10 dollars (the cost of one prostitute in Thailand or three and a cat in Cambodia) for one of Pete's shits pretty funny.

I don't know about the rest of the world, but porn died in the UK in the early 80's.

In these cases you are supposed to write simply "what" without the question mark or the capital letter.

 

[Blacklung]

Is anyone else intrigued by the fact that almost any thread about Oblivion eventually leads to porn?

 

[Admiral Rimjob POOBUM]

It's because of the Argonian boobies.

 

[Ahzaruuk]

It's because of the Argonian boobies.

I've never understood the apparently huge controversy over that.

They had Boobs up until Morrowind, then as soon as they reappeared, every one was like WTF.

 

[Jasede]

They looked better without. And the males and especially the Khajiit looked a lot more sexy in Morrowind, which helped the... immersion. Also, they were digitigrade, very appealing.

Especially you should understand why there was an outcry of rage after the innate hotness of the Khajiit and Argonians has been destroyed.

 

[Blacklung]

In the game of course, in the lore the Khajiit were more than one type, each with different features, some more cat-like than others...but yeah, still for marketing.

Meh. There was only one Khajiit face and Hair combonation I would use. As for Argonians, I feel more inclined to wack them with a stick in MW. Moslty because of the scale colours.

I much preffered the OB argonians. Not sure about the Khajiit. I like them in Both games

 

[Vipera]

Nah, I think the Argonians are better looking now.

 

[Limorkil]

Knights of the Nine ~ Say what you like about the original games, but Bethesda really are shit at added content / expansions. And don't give me that Tribunal / Bloodmoon crap - the only reason they even come close to fan made content is that Bethesda can do stuff the modders are artificially prevented from doing in the editor. Even the artistic elements are worse, Beth just has more resources.

Khajit / Argonians ~ Have to say I prefer them in Oblivion.

So you're a furry then...

 

[Micmu]

Hello Orc?

 

[Vipera]

Hello Orc?

My eyes?

 

[Jasede]

Zing!

What I didn't understand is why I was the subject in that thought.

New hands-on:

For the sake of adventuring, I had my level 4 thief/mage (wore the early set of the Dark Brotherhood armor and had some iron weaponry) go after the quest. It looks like the level scaling from Oblivion fits nicely with Knights since the skeletons were relatively easy after a fireball or two.
...
After nabbing the helmet, you'll venture to the Knights of the Nine's headquarters, which has been long abandoned save for a secret underground crypt where the souls of the Knights remain. When you enter the crypt, the Knights arise and challenge you. If/when you defeat them all (they were leveled to my [level 4!!] thief/mage so it wasn’t terribly hard), you'll be sent off to recover the artifacts.

He then goes on to say:

I'm sold

twice.

Also:

When you venture to the room with the helmet, you'll encounter the long-dead remains of a man named Amiel. His journal tells the story of his quest to recover Whitestrake's artifacts.

Surely they mean WhiteSnake's artifacts:

I don't know where I'm goin
but I sure know where I've been
hanging on the promises in songs of yesterday.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time
but here I go again, here I go again.

Tho' I keep searching for an answer
I never seem to find what I'm looking for.
Oh Lord, I pray you give me strength to carry on
'cos I know what it means to walk along the lonely street of dreams.

Here I go again on my own
goin' down the only road I've ever known.
Like a drifter I was born to walk alone.
An' I've made up my mind, I ain't wasting no more time.

etc etc blaaaaarghh

Hair Farmers!

 

[Twinfalls]

"Hey, games journalist, wanna get hands-on with my new mod?"
"Ooh, that's a big one."
"We're takin' the immersive approach, baby. Manginity-busting!"

"Hey, Todd, this is shit."
"You wanna take the hands-on approach again? I got this shiny new Golden Joystick..."

Since we're on a musical kick, surely

...
they dedicate their lives
to running all of his
he tries to please them all
this bitter man he is
throughout his life the same
he's battled constantly
this fight he cannot win
a tired man they see no longer cares
the old man then prepares
to die regretfully
that old man it was me

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never be
never see
won't see what might have been

what I've felt
what I've known
never shined through in what I've shown
never free
never me
so I dub thee unforgiven
...

would be MUCH more appropriate... and they were good too...

[EDIT}(forgot this)
@Twinfalls: Surely you DO realize that roleplayiing is riding horses AND killing things, right? I knew that you'd see it Toddles way... }[/EDIT]

Metallica was good before the black album.
