Am I the only one that did't particularly like IV? I think I didn't really like it since I picked it up so late in it's life, so the graphics were severely outdated to me and the game mechanics were a bit pants, again to me personally. Will be trying this later on though, just to see if I do get immersed in the world of Oblivion, as I do like me some RPG just didn't really like IV nor F3 for some reason.


nah plenty of people didn't really dig Oblivion, especially the people that were fans of the series and like intuitive interfaces on PC lol. I bought the game on steam (GOTY Deluxe edition) for like $10 and never really got into it kinda felt like a prettier but more generic Morrowind.

I hope I have time to enjoy this game as much as I did the last one. Should be one hell of a time.

Ok ,I respect your opinion,but you just can't judge a game from its graphics...I played and finished Final Fantasy V and Super Metroid in 2007 and they are SNES games!

I also did mention the "game mechanics were a bit pants", to me the whole swinging of the sword thing or the fire goblins thing or some confusing level really killed oblivion for me, after the poor mechanics I tried to give it a chance but ended up walking into an oblivion gate and fighting some random goblins with broken towers, who just kept appearing out of nowhere, it was a confusing experience and I just didn't like the game as a whole... I may have liked the story but I didn't get far enough to delve into it at all, as I got pissed off with the game pretty early on.



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

I'm pretty sure I will enjoy this game but I have two complaints; even less skills? Are Bethesda going the same route as SE and Bioware and watering down to get more sales? And; let's wait to see this AI and amazing visuals before passing judgement, Bethesda were quite full of shit when they starting promoting Oblivion (which did nothing to stop me from loving the game, mind you). True Radiant AI turned out to be a handful for Oblivion and in could in essence destroy the gameplay like it did during testing years ago.

All complaints aside though, this will probably be an amazing title and I can see well over a hundred hours fluttering away like it did with Oblivion.

Edit; above post: I agree, the scaling system has some major flaws and can be annoying.
