Bleh, a common enemy wasn\'t able to survive one hit from daedric dai-katana with +80 fire damage

- Swords

Well that\'s true. But think of Vivec running around in circles in his own palace.

- Staves

What should  that  -swords thing mean?

First of all I know this is an old thread. Yes I used the search button and this is the closest I came to a thread that was appropriate for what I wanted to post. I didn't want to start a new topic. BTW search on the forums is retarted.

Where have I been the last couple of days .... playing Oblivion.    Good lord it has everything and it looks great on my pc. I wanted to express my excitement on this as I am a big fan of the Morrowind. What surprised me the most was the graphics. I feel like I am really walking in the mountains when I approach them, and I love when you look down that the bushes rustle and sway with the wind. The wild life is incredible, I was actually startled in RL when I was making a quick get away on my horse .. three deer jumped out onto the path. I decided to slow down and check out the view and then a wolf jumped out and started nipping at my heals. I love that you can buy your own horses and even invest into a business. Ohhhhhh ya, and you can buy your own house. I am loven it!!!! I haven't even had the chance to test out the magic system yet but I am sure it rocks from what I have seen so far. Character selection is great! So many shapes, sizes, colors, hair styles, and facial expressions you can choice for each character.

 I am sure alot of you could find flaws and things to be added. Over all though this game is awesome and it just seems so realistic. I would highly recommend trying out Oblivion ... especially if you are into adventure. This game is so worth the bucks!

My current system would choke and gurgle under the load, but I am definitely going to try it out once I get that new machine in a few months :}

Level 23 Khajiit here with a whole load of uber mods.
I actually enjoyed Morrowind more than Oblivion, I don't know why though .
Sadly I have already finished the main quest and all the side quests ( thats right) in Oblivion, so now I have to keep waiting for new quest mods to play some new quests again.

If your system is close but your video card is not on their approved list you can try out OLDblivion which allows it to run on older cards on low settings.  Still beats up my machine pretty bad, but its playable

Anyway, the game is definately a lot of fun and huge .  Nice thing is you can go through the main quest immediately if you want to so it doesn't force people to play for a long time before they are able to do the main quest.

I was really disappointed in Oblivion, though I shouldn't have been since I wasn't a fan of Morrowind.  It's great for what it is, I guess, but you're not really able to play your character as you see fit story-wise...and since that's all that's ever interested me in a game I find it unplayable.  Though once again I don't know why I was expecting otherwise.

But really though, my 3 roommates have pretty much done nothing but play it on my 360 since it came out, so maybe I'm just bitter.

Daggerfall was the same way though.... the only choice you really have in the main quest is who to give the thingy to at the very end of the game.

*Edit* What I just did, I saw the pirate ship, with the pirate skeletons. (Official MOD 4.50$ or so) and i fired an arrow at him, and it acidentally went to the guy behind him. So the guy that I shot it at though it was the other skeleton, since he had a bow, too. So he attacked the other skeleton XD I love you Oblivion.... Even though i've been saying this for

*Edit again* I found some screenshots that the TES team made... or rather Bethesda. Well, theyre quite large, GM's, feel free to make them into links if theyre too large for this forums...




































ACTUAL SCREENSHOTS! NOT RENDERED IMAGES!!!


By the way, for all of you that want to know, this WAS rated T for tten, but after I bought it, they changed it to M.... for Mature... so yeah. But man, the fun.. the graphics... the.. blood.... MM.... me likes blood...

And no, they didn't change it to Mature from Teen because you could see dismembered bodies laying around, or because you could see bodies hanging from a rope (around the neck) with a stool laying on it's side below their feet.. or because you could break into people's houses at night, suck their blood and then brutally stab them to death while they slept.... it was because of a _mod_ which allowed you to see the female characters breasts.

Something tells me the rating system is screwed. I mean... how many teenagers haven't seen a pair of breasts before? Not many, especially the girls. This 'no nudity, it is a sin' culture in the US is dumb We were born naked weren't we? xD

[miadon]

We were born naked weren't we? xD

I was born in to a poor family, we had nothing, no silver, no decent furniture, we were so poor I was born without any clothes on. :p

Damnit I want that horse *goes to bug parents about new system*

[Jekkar]
