To take a break from all the flame wars, arguing and "Imperial vs Stormloak!!!!" discussions upon this wiki, I thought we could descend into the depths of nostalgia and discuss what our first Elder Scrolls experience was.

Wwwaaayyy back in 2005, I first became aware of the series when I was at a friend's house and I saw him playing Morrowind. Personally, I didn't play it but at the time didn't think it looked all that amazing. I was addicted to Halo 2 at the time and didn't really play much else. I didn't own a console, but I was at his house all the time. Then, a year later, that same friend told me I should try a game he'd got at Christmas: Oblivion. I thought to myself "fine, I'll try it to shut him up".

Best decision of my gaming life. I was lucky he had two consoles and, for some reason, two copies of Oblivion. I was addicted to Oblivion from then on. When I finally got my own place in 2009, there was little doubt which game was going to be the first I ever bought.

What about you, TES wiki-ans? What was your first introduction to the Elder Scrolls series?
