1) what does crpg mean?
2) is it true you get total freedom on what ya do and how ya go about it?
3) whats the replayblity like?
4) whats the community like?

1) what does crpg mean?
Don't know, never heard of it. Probably same thing as RPG or close.
2) is it true you get total freedom on what ya do and how ya go about it?
If by freedom you mean you can beat the game, and the end result is different from other peoples, you have no freedom. If by freedom you mean you can master 4 different factions before starting on main quest, or jump into the main quest... then you have 'total' freedom.
3) whats the replayblity like?
I mastered 7 factions, beat the game, got full daedric, and rarely play it now, however, when my builder comes in, I will be making mods, and until then, I'll be waiting for others to make mods.
4) whats the community like?
MW lacks a Multiplayer content, so the community is stunted... fortunately there are quite a few sites and forums (like this one)...

> 1) what does crpg mean?
CRPG stands for Computer Role Playing Game. Instead of, for instance, a pen-and-paper role-playing game like Dungeons & Dragons or Vampire.
> 2) is it true you get total freedom on what ya do and how ya go about it?
Well, it's true that you can choose to go out adventuring on your own, join various organizations, and choose what you'd like to do completely seperate from the main plot. There are tons of places to go in this game that exist just for you to explore for fun, not to mention the hundreds of little side quests you can try.
> 3) whats the replayblity like?
Replayablility seems very high, considering that you can create your own character classes and play though the game any number of different ways. For example, I'm playing a thiefy-mage girl, so I solve problems in a much different way than a knight or a straight mage.
> 4) whats the community like?
I like the community here a lot, but I don't know much about the official website.
