PantsBandit posted:I wish they'd drop (or at least take a break from) the high-fantasy Elder Scrolls stuff and try something a little different. I want a game that's loving weird. And not like Morrowind where it is a very proud, established society in a strange landscape but like Alice in Wonderland what the gently caress is going on kind of weird. shivering isles was like that it was pretty cool not as good as everyone likes to rave about but oblivion is really bland so it looks super good in comparison

Kilroy posted:My favorite part of Oblivion was the pre-release thread, when I pointed out there was a good chance spears would be cut from the game since there wasn't a single spear in any of the pre-release screencaps, and the entire forum called me a massive human being since obviously they would never do that. Your probably the person with brain damage if this is what's exciting to you.

PantsBandit posted:Yeah, I know Wormskull posted:Your probably the person with brain damage if this is what's exciting to you. It didn't really happen the way you're dreaming it up. Someone posted a bunch of screencaps, I pointed it out, then it was literally just two pages of name calling and a mod threatening to probate me iirc. Then it came out and I didn't care anymore because it's a lovely game. But don't let that stop your improv itt, have at it.

the best part of oblivion is just farming oblivion gates for CHameleon sigil stones while still level 1 and making yourself a 100% chameleon suit of armor right away. From then on you can stab guards and they just run the gently caress away

PantsBandit, i recommend you give the Zeno Clash games a shot. The setting is not quite Wonderland weird, but it's still very very unique.

"10% more damage on one-handed attacks! the privilege of crafting with higher metals!"

don't level up, op, because then you won't have fun anymore.

THE PENETRATOR posted:don't level up, op, because then you won't have fun anymore. this was also the worst loving idea ever. what was up with 2006 RPGs all having this system? "everything levels up when you do. nevermind that your level ups may not involve combat at all and that it starts to get really broken past level 20 or so"

The best part is when you put Kvatch off for a while to do other stuff and then when you try to go back and play it you realize how completely hosed you are because all the enemies are unkillable.

Everyone mentions the levelscaling enemies but the worst was the scaled quest rewards. They made unique items really weak and lovely if you got them at a low level.

To be honest guys, I've only spent a few hours playing so far. I'm pretty sure I'm on the main quest, but I've done a lot of just wandering around. In other words, a bunch of stuff that is identically similar to what you might find in Morrowind or Skyrim. I haven't played enough, I think, to really find any bad things that are just bad.

the best moment in oblivion hands down is when they only paid for one guard voice actor and they have to have 50 dudes yell FOR BRUMA and they just play the same sound effect over itself 50 times

Bolverkur posted:there's nothing wrong with enjoying Oblivion. it's also nothing wrong with enjoying Skyrim. both are fine games in their own way. the one thing i will say about oblivion that blows morrowind out of the water is walking around near the Imperial City when this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuFXhcUz06s) starts playing, it's cool and gives me really homely/nostalgic feelings. it'd be different if nerevar rising reprise (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QuBB0JchGZc) was in morrowind though
