You know you've played too much Morrowind when...

[ThetaOrionis01]

..... on a visit to the seaside you think you really need to update your graphics card because the water doesn't look good enough.... then realize you're not looking at a computer screen

[Zmid]

...you look out the window and wonder how they got the sun so realistic.

 

...before you go to sleep you try to work out where to put the slider so you wake up in time for work.

My god this is sad, especially the strangling one just to make people look like dark elves (that's not sad, that's sadISTIC).

 

YOU PEOPLE ARE SAD IN GENERAL, OKAY?

[Slaiv]

Off-topic about the point, but did you get this from Forumplanet, or start one of these there? Because there is a thread asking the same exact thing there....

[Eiade]

my friend told me about that one, yes. he told me some of the responses and they were hilarious. i've never been there, but i thought it would be a good idea to see what a morrowind-specialty site would have to offer. i think forumplanet ones that i've heard are funnier than this thread, sadly..

I have devided these "you know you've been playing too much morrowind when..." items into different sections.

 

FRIENDS & FAMILY:

 

You spiritual spell-kit using friend is a level 20 breton mage

 

You big beefy weight-lifting friend is a level 18 nord barbarian

 

You think you're adopted because your real parents are supposed to be unknown to you, otherwise it would ruin the "WHOLE IDEA!!"

 

JOBS:

 

You go looking for jobs from a place apparently called the "mages guild" so you can recieve a souldrinker

 

You don't hesitate to tell close friends that you work for the emporer and do lots of things for him

 

You walk around asking archaeologists if you can find some powerful artifacts for them, and also seem to be looking for "the staff of magnus" in the process.

 

FOOD:

 

You go to stores asking for bottles of skooma, and perhaps some scrib jerky. When you don't have enough "gold", you start admiring the person assuming

(s)he'll eventually give you the item for next to nothing.

 

TRAVEL:

 

You try sneaking onto a plane assuming nobody will see you since your sneak skill is so high.

 

LAW:

 

You call all police "guards" or "ordinators", and assume that when you kill someone you'll have to pay the guards 1000 dollars.

 

OTHER:

 

While you're taking a walk through the woods you seem to be hearing the morrowind music coming from somewhere...

 

When you wake up you're happy to see that your magicka, health and fatigue are now full again

 

You use the magic system from morrowind for everything to do with magic. Harry potter certianly is good at mysticism and destruction, while Gandalf is excellent at conjuration

 

That is all for now. I will come up with more later.

[soxxx]

when...

You turn off your computer, try to leave your room by clicking on the door only to realise it has no exit marker arrows in the next cell.

 

My dog is called 'Rat-Meat' but I can not find any Nix-hound to feed it....if any one has any in stock please give, I can give 1000gp and don't mind waiting 24hrs for you to restock.

[ObsidianKnight]

You know you've played Morrowind too much when....

 

You coat all of your silverware in differently-colored Seran Wrap.

 

You endlessly taunt a rich guy in real life, keeping one hand on your knife, hoping that he attacks.

 

You show up at a pawn shop, and try to sell some of your Seran-Wrapped silverware and some parchment with funny scrawlings all over it.

[wesaynothin]

You rip the MW music onto a cd and listen to it life is more like real life.

 

When you call Morrowind Real Life.

 

When you start thinking the weathetr outside isn't as good quality as in-game. (done)

 

When it is 80 degrees outside, and you get cold because it is raining in game. (done)

[MDH Weaponeer]

You know you've been playing too much morrowind when...

 

You wonder how many pixels your house house is made of put together and what scripts it runs on

 

You start a club called the thieves guild and commonly go about with your friends stealing things and getting high on moon sugar

 

When ever you hold a staff like object you use the chop, slash and thrust actions with it (guilty as charged)

 

You call your kid a name from Morroind

 

You use fire damage to light objects on fire and have a place with constant effect frost damage that you put food in.

 

Your cat attacks you one night and you seem to hear the morrowind battle music coming from... somewhere.
