tbh without google i'd still be like mid game lol money and leveling isn't too bad in this title though, I didn't even know about them till I was already 3/4 done (TA solution mentioned them). Wanted that extra money to buy all the spells.

It’s pretty much all mismanagement. Adopting new tech prematurely? Mismanagement. Changing creative direction in production? Mismanagement. Iterating on content 3+ times? Mismanagement. Adding major features in production? Mismanagement.

Poor planning, failure to follow plans - all mismanagement.

I'm not sure if I have a favorite.  I will end up purchasing all four at some point.  I will play avowed close to launch date.  I've been trying to ignore games that don't have launch dates.  The Oblivion remake probably has me the most excited.  

Can't vote, I don't want to piss off the other 3 games. 

What if I reword it to most anticipated?

Lol, no you're good.  Right now I've waited so long for Avowed, so it's probably the one I want to play the most.  I still have the Outer Worlds 1 unfinished, in fact I think I only sampled a couple of hours it, so part 2 is at the bottom of my list.  The Fable world looks amazing, but I don't know what to expect in regards to gameplay, menus, skill trees, but if it's a deep system and long game, I'll enjoy the heck out of it.  

Oblivion I kind of played like Skyrim.  I've pumped in over 40-50 hours in both but have failed to play either one to completion.  I get so side tracked and lost in the atmosphere that I would forget what the heck I was doing.  Then my family would get a shooter or some other online competitive play and pull me off of them so I never beat them.  But an Oblivion remake/remaster would pull me back in and I'm still looking forward to completing it and Skyrim.  

More interested in Outer Worlds 2.


And here I am never played the first one...need to play it.

That would be better since seems silly for people to pre-like something before playing it.

I kinda automatically translated favorite to most anticipated lol but yeah maybe i'll go with Fable

Need to revisit TOW1 right now the ranking would probably be Fable > Avowed > TOW2 > Whatever TES

Because they were due to the horrendous encounter rate, grinding for gil to buy spells and equipment and the vague explanation of where you need to go.

The Pixel Remaster ver makes this more simple and easy to get into.

(I played the NES, GBA, PS1, PSP, NS and iOS versions)

Edit: Oh ya, the map system was weird too, they didnt have a map on the NES or PS1 or at least not that I remember.

Getting the map to turn on the Anniversary editions (i.e. GBA, PSP, iOS non-pixel remaster) was annoying, a key combination nowhere in the game that tells you how to do it, you literally have to look at the manual or google it.
