Similar to Morrowind would make me really happy, there was some magic in Morrowind, Oblivion was pretty mediocre.

You haven't been here for long and I can already tell you have bad video game tastes :P

Or to be ethically correct I should say that you have a very different opinion than mine.

Diplomatic, not ethically correct. I wouldn't call it bad taste, I just prefer a sequel to not take more steps back than forward and for it not to have quite possibly the worst story in a Western RPG ever.

But it's not because it takes step back that the game is mediocre.

What do you think would have been your opinion of Oblivion if you have played it before Morrowind?

Most likely pretty good I'm thinking.

So that means you should change your expectations.

Now I understand why you dislike every new FF.

When I use the term mediocre I don't mean I dislike the product, I enjoyed my time with Oblivion, but objectively compared to Morrowind and how progressive Morrowind was for its time I can't called Oblivion anything but mediocre, my experience with Morrowind was much greater. Same applies to FF10 and FF13, two games I've seen you praise on the forums, I definitely enjoyed my time with them but I can't see them anything but mediocre at the end. FF12 I just didn't enjoy though and I have many reasons. So I only outright dislike 1 of the new Final Fantasy's. Anyway there was no need to bring that into it, if you can defend oblivion, defend it, don't involve another franchise in the discussion.

Then tell us what was so bad about Oblivion because pretty much every critics out there praised the game and called it "better" than Morrowind. You can't just say the game is mediocre without explaining yourself!

Same goes with FFX but that's indeed off-topic.

1. No scaling

2. No fast travel and other casualisations

3. Levitation

4. Vision 3D support

5. A good and beefy central storyline

6. Low system reqs

You are going to be one disappointed gamer come November.

Khuutra? What are you doing in an Elder Scrolls thread?

I want:

- no level scaling

- magic that allows flying

- longer main quest that actually gives you something good in terms of loot (incentive to play it)

- better AI

- I do think there should be a travel system but make it like Rockstar does, have like horses in each town and you pay to use them

- unique dungeons

All I can think off at the moment

These are common suggestions but very good and I predict most of them will be fixed compared to Oblivion.

Marcios, remember we have Two Worlds II to play through before Skyrim comes out. You still in on that one?

Not sure, the thing is is that TWII is coming out only in Jan. 25.

My sister is going to the US in January but she will return before that date. So Im getting Mass Effect 2 and LBP2 (they come out Jan. 18).

Then there will be Dragon Age 2 in March, plus a lot of others that I will want in November (including TES V) so I gotta save cash.

So I probably wont get it. I will look at some places here in Brazil as the year goes by. If I find a good price, I might get it.

Can't you mail order? UK online shops are cheap.

I dont know.
