All good things must come to an end. So, apparently, does this.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

That’s right, after 50 regular posts, I’m bringing my longest-running Let’s Play into a landing sequence. There will be two more plus-sized posts, an epilogue, and then it’s over.<\/p>\n

This is a difficult thing to do. I mean, I’ve kept it going for 50 entries. It’s one of the more popular series on the site, and, as my probably-weighted Google search would have it, the first Morrowind LP that comes up. And though I feel in my gut like the series has run its course, I’m pretty sure I’ll get some flak for never finishing any of the quest lines or checking out Bloodmoon.<\/p>\n

The thing is, though, this was never about taking anything to completion. For chrissakes, I never even touched <\/em>the main quest after delivering the package, and I’ve flitted from job to job and personal mission to personal mission like a gadfly with a liberal arts degree. I’m a tourist–I’m sampling a wide range of content with the understanding that little of it will ever get finished. Honestly, to me, that’s part of what Morrowind was about. Morrowind wasn’t something to be finished, it was a world to inhabit and explore at my leisure. It’s not a coincidence that I stopped playing years ago when my first character had gotten to the end of every questline and maxed out every skill–I had gotten damn near close to “beating” Morrowind then, and it killed the experience for me. While I’d never get to that level within the confines of this LP, my point is that I’m comfortable concluding this series without becoming House Leader or Head Fighter or Iron Chef or whatever.<\/p>\n

As for Bloodmoon: wasn’t gonna happen. Sorry, that place is lethal<\/em>, and most of the interesting quests (of a variety I’ve yet to explore) are way out of my league. I’d have to gain another half-dozen levels at least, and that would require probably another dozen episodes. Besides, Cahmel hocked his warm clothing for repairs money.<\/p>\n

So, what does that leave for the last two episodes? Hehe. You’ll see.<\/p>\n

Oh, and obviously, there’s gonna be a series replacing this one. Yes, it’s a text-based LP. I don’t want to blab what it is; let’s just say it’s what makes tying this series up sting a little less on my end.<\/p>\n

Right, I’ll save the getting misty part for the actual epilogue. I don’t know when the last entry will go up, but the penultimate one should be up by the end of the week. See you there.<\/p>\n

Oh, and I have the footage for Dark Messiah, but it’s going wonky when I put it into Windows Movie Maker. It might be I downloaded the wrong version; if it ends up being a serious problem, I’ll just re-record or something.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
