| Alphachris said: No Chance. I already fell for Oblivion while I was waiting for FF13. It was by far the worst RPG experience that I ever had. There was not 1 thing that I liked about it. It was outright horrible and I just couldn't see why it got so good reviews. I played it for more than 30 hours... just wasted time in my opinion. But after having played Dragon Age, Borderlands and Sacred 2 I must say that those PC-style games are just not taste. I just can't accept that they have so an absolutely boring main story or character development (esp. Main character). Those 200 Sidequests are absolutely senseless and get boring pretty quick. I even tried out the Mass Effect 2 Demo, but I didn't like it at all. Maybe it is just a cultural issue. It seems that open world, sidequests, dialogue choices, moral systems, etc are just very popular in the US and the UK. I just can't stand them. I already get disappointed if a game starts with a "create your own character" screen... Its already a synonym for a silent character and a bad main story for me... I don't want to offend the fans though. Oblivion just gets me mad because it was the first total flop for me in years. I read Reviews and fan comments and everyone praised it, it got many GOTY awards.....I just didn't expect that I would not enjoy the game at all. So Oblivion became a symbol for me not to trust reviews anymore. No matter how good a game may be actually, if you just can't stand certain game designs you just can't enjoy the game. |
Get Witcher, its an answer to all your complaints about the WRPG genre that are in your post. Get the enhanced edition if you can find it.
