::gives you a big hug::

and you're right on nearly all counts. i even sprang for the CE, cuz i just LOVE the art in MW and the Ordinator figurine was just too nice to pass up! its the tiniest little thing with the most excruciatingly beautiful details.

the BB was just skooshes away from ascending when windoze gave me a mad crash and decided to really throw me for a loop and when i reformatted, installed to my "D" drive (plz don't ask

) and wiped ALL my saves!

i had to lovingly lay them to rest but only until i get my fill of MW. (my 4 person team DID ascend, but gee, i really want the BB to make it there. the have a HUGE bone to pick with Old Dark 'n' Grumpy, yknow?)

anyway, it's official, Wizzie and MW look like they are both on my perennial fave list!

i did have to make several attempts in starting MW, but only because i wanted to get the feel of the game, so i would know how to tackle it. finally decided on a Dunmer Assassin and the way things happen to her, i can't decide if she's really smart or just plain lucky!! but i think she will be the most fun and prolly convert easily to a vampire later on. you KNOW i can't pass that one up.

i DID get DS and mm9, both. i have been playing them off and on. DS is a lotta fun, as you point out, in the old Diablo style. i had more fun tho, playing with one or two other peeps. it really shines in MP (except for the no-save dealie

boohoo on that. anywayz

its still on the list.

and might and magic 9 is a very mixed bag. i think i can best compare it to mm6. the storyline and depth remind me of 6 very much (i really love mm6) but it goes hand in hand with the NWC way of doing things. unpolished, with a bagful of terrible bugs and a shopping cart of unfinished plot devices, etc. so as a might & magic product, its a good one. just nervewracking as all get out at times.

::finally running out of breath and getting back to her original point::

draconis! i'm so glad you made your way over here! and you're starting up today! YAY!

::gives you another big hug::

have you even installed it or checked out the Construction Set yet? i don't know what your system is, but its totally geared for mid to high end systems, so get ready for some tweaking. even with all that, its so waaaay worth it.

::pauses to take another deep breath::

did i tell you how glad i am you're here?! LOL!
