"Buying new games?"

Gonna get a new game soon any suggestions? Need a new FPS? Thinking bout Morrowind also? Ne 1 know of any good deals in the shops?

The Dwemer Cube is easy, but well hidden.

Go into the ruins, down the slope and turn left at the bottom. A couple of blokes come running up. Either run past or kill them.
You need to get up to the 2nd level of the building thing in front of you, if you look around there's a slope and jumpable boulders, use 'em.
Go through the only available door on the left, kill the bloke inside and nick the cube from the shelf on the far left of the room.
Done.
Back out, hop down and back out.

There are loads of doors in the Dwemer ruins, just go left at the bottom of the main chamber/hall thing and up a level using the rocks.
If you have to go through any doors or down stairs, you've gone the wrong way.

I found Morrowind fun right from the start.

*begins typing his first experiences of morrowind*

*deletes*

Sod it. It's in the Morrowind thread i'll just copy & paste it.

But Morrowind really is crap. It's just too big for it's own good. Someone on here said a while ago - the last time I claimed Morrowind was utter toss - that it took 50 hours of gameplay for the game to really open up and become fun. 50 hours?!! I've completed far better games in far less the time. Sorry but any game that requires 50 hours of your life before it gets fun in any way is crap. In my opinion, a game should be fun right from the start, which Morrowind isn't.

You're welcome to your opinion. But I'm afraid you also have to deal with people's reaction to it.

Put it this way. If I went around saying "Zelda's a pile of shat" (which I don't believe) then I wouldn't expect a very happy response from those who like it (ie the majority of those who own it).

What, so I can't have an opinion? :)

Quite frankly if you can't understand that Morrowind is a good game, enjoyed by many, regardless of whether it appeals to you personally.

Then you really are a fool.

Yeah, Hedfix, you puddle-splashing clodhopper. HA!
