Oblivion Trading Card Game

Post » Tue Oct 26, 2010 9:22 pm

I have been talking to alot of people who like TCGs, and alot of them think a Oblivion one would be very cool. I have a few good ideas on gameplay, of which i will post later if enough people are interested in this.

ALL IDEAS ARE WELCOME AND WANTED!!! Hopefully i can post some cards later.

I think it could be if implimented properly but there seem to be a lot of trading card games out there already. I'm afraid that if it were to go public it would just get lost in the shuffle, so to speak. It would likely need one hell of a gimmick to stand out (you know, other than being based on Oblivion.) If this is just something your doing on a whim though, I think it would be a good idea. You never know, it could be the start of a great new trend. It would be interesting to apply a multi-player aspect to the TES universe. It certainly wouldn't hurt to hear more about it.

Would this be like baseball cards?

I would like to nominate the Adoring Fan to be the rarest card out there, where you have a peculiar desire (because, after all, it IS the rarest card) to posess it, yet a sense of self-loathing at the same.

It might spin off into a crappy TV show that progressively gets worse.

I got this idea from a friend, Its gonna start off as a online game like MTG online where you get a starter deck then you play agenst a few BOTs and that how you win random new cards. if you think you can take your deck local, then you can play agenst real players and win better cards. ANTE is only for certain servers, i will have Newbie, skilled, veteran, and ANTE servers (u can enter them based on how many matches you have played). Me and my friend are making a Mass Effect TCG http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/128/index/4926748/4 and we thought a oblivion one would be cool.

also i thot of an Equip you character card game. as in you start off with one person no armor or weapons 1pt damage. you equip him with other weapons and armor and FOLLOWERS (you can have a small army if you wanted).
or a set up like MTG or SWTCG.

This sounds a lot like YuGiOh, but I like the idea. :D Would be interesting, though it really has to stand out from the rest. There are LOTS of TCGs out there already.

i am trying to make it so that it doesnt sound or even look like any other game. i have yet to see a game where you equip your own character and have followers. i am also thinking of a card based board game for Oblivion but thats gonna be later. magic spells are gonna be integrated as a weapon slot (basicly like the hotkey system in the game). speed is going to be the main factor because some characters are faster than others but slower normally hits harder.

So.. What you're saying is that you can customize your cards however you want?? Just like in the game?? That sounds like a good idea, i hope you get enough support to create this card game :foodndrink: cuz i would really want to play it one day.

actually the way i wanna throw it down is by getting a small web team together (me and another guy over in the ME forums are workin on METCG right now too) and brainstorming on how we want to do this. i want many people involved. i will personally contact gamesas to get permission to do this if i have to. and remember ALL IDEAS, CRITICIZM, AND THOUGHTS WELCOME.

While it could be awesome, It would most likely die out.
Only 3 TCGs I know of lasted longer than a few years.

i know, pokemon, MTG, and Yugioh. But It will start off as an online game, if some how it gets super popular, then it will go to card. I will have a "Print Your Deck" option so you could print solid state cards if you wanted to. i would also like for it to advance with the new elderscrolls thats commin out 2012.

Oblivion trading cards? I love it and hate it.

It's like taking vodka, and because it's not addictive enough, you feel the need to add heroin.

With ideas like that, someone's going to hire you.

Great idea, but the market would be too small. Still they would be great collector items like baseball cards (as opposed to Magic/Pokimon game cards). Anyway, what's to stop you from making them yourself? As long as you don't sell them for cash money, I don't think the Bethesda Trademark Enforcement Unit it going to storm your house or anything.

What I want are Oblivion action figures!

What would be even cooler would be getting a custom action figure of your character. :celebration:

I would love it but it's just a pipe dream.

Imagine a Mehrune's Dagon action figure along with Xivilai or even Spider Daedra, that would be so cool

Bah-ha-ha-ha! I remember when I was younger I would watch it all the time, but know the shows are ridiculous

And a Trading Card game would be interesting, but I don't know if I would participate, and it would give TES a childish look maybe.

Bet you can't name 10 advlts who play TCG's and actually have A) Sanity or b, a social life (actually I take that back, social life isn't all its cracked up to be :P). The TCG's target market will be aimed at children, thus making it childish. Since the TCG will be published, it will be linked to Bethesda Softworks, Oblivion game which as I understand is a Mature rated game. Of course i'm guessing you wanna do it for fun, but it will probably die out within a few months.

Of course I could be wrong, i just remember playing Pokemon cards when I was 7, not 18 :P

But the first season would still be watchable, would really be interested in who voices the annoying spikey haired girly protagonist.



Justin Bieber?

Magic TCG =/= Childish.



It's nerdy, which is so much better, wedgies be damned.

yah last time i remember, MTG was not childish, nor were DnD cards.
Also, look how basic Pokemon and YuGiOh were, and look how advanced MTG and Starwars TCG are. not many 7 yo kids could keep up with the gameplay of MTG (at least not how fast my family plays. its a family game in our house), or even the gameplay of SWTCG (god, even that confuses me).
And i would appreciate ideas to help me out in this, still havent decided how the gameplay is gonna work out. i think i am gonna make a poll about it, idk.
