Thanks

Why not?

Well honestly, I didn't know much about the game to begin with. I saw screenshots of it in third person (I don't playing in the first person view) so that was good to see, but it seems that playing it like that isn't preferable (it was the same for oblivion according to the reviews I saw)

The great reception and all praise it was getting made me want to get it, and the fact that it's an RPG (albeit a western type), but I guess it's just not for me

I guess I'm not into western RPGs no matter how much I want to be :p

this isn't like Oblivion the third person gameplay is a lot improved, you can play it fully on third person.

Oblivion had put a lot of people in bad taste, but this game isn't oblivion it is skyrim, and the game is so damn good.

I can second this. I really didn't like Oblivion despite trying multiple times to get into it but Skyrim clicked right from the beginning. It's so much better than Oblivion.

Yeah i actually liked oblivion , but it wasn't as good as morrowind, they focused too much on graphics that they forgot about voice actors, there are only 5 voices in the game, and the battle system is way too basic and easy.
