Oblivion: ocarina of time

Post » Mon Jun 20, 2011 12:41 am

I have played oblivion over and over and over, again, and again, i have played oblivion twice as much as fallout, so my question is, will you miss oblivion after playing skyrim, there is a really unique experience with oblivion and i think that skyrim will be a different game rather than an upgrade, therefore will you go back and play oblivion after you finish playing skyrim, or do you think that skyrim will fill in that whole that you have for tes games?

I'm a Morrowind guy, but yeah, I'd agree with that. It's definitely what happened with Oblivion for me.

Nope, maybe. I think i will play Morrowind and maybe Daggerfall.
Maybe a little Oblivion.

I still play both Morrowind and Oblivion. If I could get it to run well on my system, I'd play Daggerfall too.

I don't expect any of that to change.

Oblivion was my first (well, I played Arena right before Oblivion actually) entry to the almighty TES, so of course, it's full of nostalgia for me. :)

I haven't played Oblivion since I played FO3. I got to Oblivion very late (my computer couldn't handle it when it was released) so it wasn't long after finishing Oblivion that I played FO3. FO3 had a markedly more refined engine and I knew it would be difficult for me to go back to Oblivion. I did enjoy Oblivion, but I never played enough to develop a deep attachment. I wouldn't rule out playing Oblivion in the future, but I do think it's unlikely.

It will fill the whole. It'll fill it up with nice warmth from a fire spell and then it will cut and make more room with a nice sharp longsword and then be smithed back into full repair and then another fire spell will warm the rest of it and then a shock spell will give me a jolt to play even more and an ice spell to cool me down if I get to mad, because I just CAN'T stay mad at that game.

Huh... Well. I felt that i played oblivion to its fullest. Hundreds upon hundreds, maybe even thousands of hours in it. When i was done, i felt very full and satisfied with oblivion. Then Shivering isles came out, and it was like Oblivion 2. Very cool, felt fresh and it didnt feel like i was playing the same thing again. New people new places new atmosphere, but in the end, it WAS the same game.

Now the Skyrim is out. They can advance a great deal of features, and pull back on many other. I'll have to wait and see, but if its anything like the transition from morrowind > oblivion, then it should be quite an amazing experience for me. I'm just worried that they [censored] up the combat system by taking defense away from 1 handers. My only 1, true concern.

I'm not going to touch Oblivion never again after Skyrim is released... well, I haven't played Oblivion for a long time anyway.

I will keep Oblivion in my collection, and preserve my perfect save files, but odds are no, I will probably not play it again once Skyrim comes out, its Oblivions successor in every way.

I just think that, until Skyrim drops into my hands and I get to play it, that I will not know if it follows the same progression for getting better.

Daggerfall < Morrowind < Oblivion
I won't know until I play it, though I strongly suspect that it will follow suit.

Overplayed both Daggerfall and Morrowind as in stopped playing Morrowind then I picked up the mushrooms needed for an early mage guild quest in the starting town and did not remember that I did it, it was automatic like locking your door. Still plays Oblivion to test out new mods but fells I’m done with it.

Fallout 3 was an excellent game, played it a couple of times however never liked the setting as much as elder scroll. Add that the limited selection of weapon and armor at fixed locations limited replay value. Recon armor, vengeance for heavy weapons, fatman to make pack of reavers go away, Old faithful, Lincolns repeater and a sniper rifle.
