So what type are you then

Unread postby Ethric » 04 Apr 2006, 00:40

Been playing TES: Oblivion a lot last days, and once again I'm a sinister mage\thief type. I always go for those in rpg-games, and in Morrowind and oblivion (only TES games I've played) you have a lot of freedom to customise your character. Currently in Oblivion I'm a vampire dark elf custom class relying on stealth and illusion\destruction magic. Pretty much the same in Morrowind, and as close as I can get in other rpg-games; as sinister an assassin with some support-wizardry as I can get.

So anyone else who play a lot of rpg-games noticed a pattern in what you play?

Ranger/Druid, basically the nature class. I have always liked animals, and therefore pick those classes due to their alignment with animals. Although it is fun to play as a Sauron-esque character from time to time...

I'm always the goody-goody paladin with a specialty in healing/recovery spells. Go figure.

Always a Fighter and either an elf or human. I liek the idea of going out and being able to use any weapon I want with ease. I would love to be someone who was able to swing a sword like the best of 'em.

I'm a NPC :proud:

Nah... I'll discover it in 12 hours when I get my hands on the game.

I chose the standard mage class and High Elf for my race. My next character will probably be a thief.

Funny how different paths people choose in games, as I'm sure we could get along just fine in real life :)

In real life, probably. Sadly, if I met you in a game my high principles would probably demand that you end up skewered on the end of my sword. :D

I haven’t played Oblivion, but generally when I play any sort of RPG I’m a mage of one kind or another. For some reason the idea of flying, teleporting and flinging around lightening bolts appeals to me. :D If for some reason I couldn’t be a mage I’d probably be an archer—ranged attacks are generally positive, unless it’s a game where the bow is significantly harder to use than the sword.

I'd hear your clanking armour and loud principles a mile away and either be long gone or waiting in a dark corner :devious:

Normaly I prefer Warlock type spellcasters. There's nothing like incinerating/shocking/freezing/smashing your oponents from a distance. After that a nice Barbarian type fighter, bashing people's heads in.

I usually play a ranged bow-using character, though I tend to play characters with at least some magic capability. Pure fighters tend to get a bit too bland and boring. :devil:

Hehe, I always get bored with melee-clashing based characters.

(moved this thread to the campfire)


Riiight, seems to be a problem with smileys, I can't type the word "b0red" without getting bored. Daft.

Range is of the essence.Ussually a mage,but archers and thieves suit me well.I tend to play unique characters.A good necromancer,for example.Or a twisted druid elf(not a drow).I also tried a few paladines.But I never could play a chaotic character.Mostly Im neutral.
