In defense of Oblivion : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

» Sun May 08, 2011 4:31 pm

Also because it's the newest game, and as such, the hottest topic in the TES world. Whenever TESV comes around, Oblivion fans are going to be swarming all over it about how much it svcks, it's not like Oblivion at all, they changed everything that was good. TESV fans will be calling the Oblivion fans biased, elitist oldschoolers just insulting it as much as possible. The same thing happened when Morrowind came out.

so true EDIT:and if morrowind fans hate tes v than most of them will stay either here or in the morrowind forum,not even thinking about flameing tes v

Maybe we can all just love each other and our TES games? But not in the way that Azura wants to. lol

You guys, if we say that these games svck then maybe BGS will put some funny reflective thing into their games of this. Just like they did with the fishy sticks. I never got mine :sadvaultboy:

I'm really anticipating to see if this will be true. It will be sort of a test to see if Oblivion really has a hardcoe audience, and not the more shallow one that some people seem to attribute to it.

I am an Oblivion fan and a Morrowind fan. I am an Arena fan and a Daggerfall fan and a Redguard fan... Battlespire... not so much. I am an Elder Scrolls fan and I will love Skyrim. (I am part of the hardcoe audience BTW)

All the Elder Scrolls games svck!

Found some quotes:

HaHAha!
The first ones mine!
I wasn't saying morrowind is of mediocre quality (I wish I could say svcks.) ,I was just saying it wasn't perfect.
Oblivion also has ALOT of mods aswell.
My main game right now is morrowind.

I did not had internet when Morrowind succeeded Dagerfall (not counting the other two games inbetween) but I do remember some hate towards Morrowind. But I dont remember it to last that long like it did with Morrowind -> Oblivion. Maybe Daggerfall was just way too old then, or Morrowind drew more new players or my memory just plain svcks. Well, I am excited to see what the future brings anyway...

Someone give mankar a fishy stickEDIT:thanks seti now to continue my plan,I got an idea which will make me rule the world(ends sarcasm)To Shadowbeast:I want to like tes v but to be excepted into the hardcoe club hmm maybe if all ob fans(including me)like it I will pretend it is too casual and that I hate the game but there is one bad point people would wonder why I got loads of mods for it if I hated it(joke but I do want tes v to be awesome)

Perhaps it's because Oblivion was released 4 years after Morrowind, but now, over 4 years after Oblivion's release, we don't even have an announcement for TES V.

It would really svck if morrowind fans hated TES V so much that they turned into something like NMA.

I didn't give you a fishy stick. :unsure:

NMA?(I know I'm a noob).

Did Daggerfall fans hate Oblivion that much? I think they mostly hang out in the DaggerXL forums(I've been there a few times). It's a nice place, but it has that lingering feeling of an ancient evil, one like that of Morrowind elitists, but greater and older. Watch your step in that place. Morrowind elitists are the second generation of Elder Scrolls elitists, not the first. They are merely a shadow of their predecessors.

Lol, yeah, I gotta make my list of why Beth betrayed me in making TESV, and how it wasn't enough like a polished up Oblivion.

I wasn't entirely serious though about seeing if the Ob crowd is "casual" or "hardcoe". I honestly couldn't give a crap about "hardcoe" or "casual", I love both Morrowind and Oblivion (still trying to get into the older ones as well), and I'm really hoping the same will be for TESV

Coolness is not judged by how athletic or good with girls or fashionable you are. Coolness is determined by how cool I think you are by reading your posts. You are pretty damn cool Seti. You like all TES games and will stand up for Oblivion when Morrowind fan boys and girls call it shallow and lame. That is cool. Because I know that some people just say Morrowind is best just so they fit in on the forums.

I don't care either but respect is kinda good.

Just wait until TES V is released.

Seti(3 years in the future): TES V is a casual piece of crap! I remember the good ol' days of the true RPG, Oblivion! TES V: Skyrim is the greatest game in the history of the universe. I hate this game. The environment is too different, there aren't enough skills, how could they get rid of that awesome Imperial male voice from Oblivion, this game is an action game!

Hate is such a weak word. I prefer the words despise and make it their goal to utterly and completely destroy Fallout 3.

I have seen a few topics and I only saw one hate post can you link me to a thread with a few or a section where it happens the most?

this mediocre FPS/RPG hybrid will be lost to the sands of time

That came off the NMA website. It was written by an administrator of the site. :shakehead:
