I think that's a given.

Quests in general and the quest tracking system was a great deal better than Morrowind. I remember starting quests in MW and then finding the entry for them buried in my journal weeks of playtime later. Oops! I wonder how long Mrs. So-and-so has been standing by the roadside waiting for me to deliver that glove?

Just keep in mind that that doesn't mean everything about OB was better than MW

Oh the paint brush. How thou aided me in climbing yonder White Gold Tower.

Paint Brushes. The ghetto levitation.

I think an obligatory

noooooooooooooooooooo

is called for here... jezus.




Seriously though, oblivions quests were much better, lets just hope there are as many as there were in morrowind this time round (if the devs can pull that off, I will be utterly amazed).

Mud Crabs

I would like everything from Oblivion to be burned and forgotten.

Doomstones.

EDIT: Whoops, misread the title. In that case, definitely magicka regeneration.

Horses

Uuuaaahhh! Hmmm... Well..... Yea-No.
I guess the dialog system was okay. How I could talk to everyone. Just don't freeze time in Skyrim.

the dark brotherhood

A talking scamp. Or the return of a talking Mudcrab!

Yup, that was awesome.
I know some people hate it because it "makes the game too easy", but come on, how can you call yourself a mage if you can only cast 2-3 spells before ABSOLTELY needing a potion or sleep.

Those same people want survival skills and hardcoe mode :rolleyes: .

Wrong thread.


I hope to see jails again. The kind you actually go into.

Horses hands down.
But improved of course, so they aren't any jeeps.

Ingredient collection. AI. Schedules. Physics. Walking speed. Voice acting. Horses. Better quest organization.

I will go with quest organization. :thumbsup:

Also I see the magicka regeneration and raise with a very slower regeneration for both magicka and health.

PS. Oh yeah jails too.

Nope, I want survival and hardcoe mode AND magicka regeneration.
hardcoe mode for the sake of immersion, not of difficulty.

tie between the daedric armors design and the argonian male voice (mostly for the awesome laugh)

Actually, no. Non-regenerating magicka and survival skills are COMPLETELY unrelated. People who want a magicka system similar to Arena, Daggerfall and Morrowind, the 3 best TES games, only want it because it was better and less redundant than Oblivion's magicka. Oblivion's magicka had no flare to it. An enemy could shoot a fire ball at you and you wouldn't even blink. In Morrowind, not only did magicka not regenerate, you could also fail to cast spells. As a result, the spells you cast successfully were much more powerful than the little peashooters of Oblivion.

I'd much rather have an unstable magicka system like Morrowind and Daggerfall, where the spells actually DO something and can reasonably be intimidating, than the horrible P.O.S. found in Oblivion.

In Morrowind it actually FELT like you were mastering magicka. You could attempt ANY spell, but only after practicing for a long time would you eventually start to cast the big ones more effectively. In Oblivion, you go through 25 levels with the same stupid spells, and then magically (no pun intended), you can use the next tier as if you've been doing it all along. It felt WAY unnatural compared to Morrowind and Daggerfall. There was no progression and no power behind them (until level 100, where, again, magically you were able to do way better)

I keep reading about those encounters, but I've never met the count anywhere except in his castle...

And the one thing from Oblivion I'd love to see in Skyrim (in some form at least) is Sheogorath. :wub:

swords

I'm going to say another quest to steal one of the elder scrolls. And maybe decode it and be able to read it this time. Unless they are ALL in the Imperial City Library which I'm not sure about. Oh, and Mysticism of course... wait a minute...

I think that's more of a problem of the poor selection of available spells we had and the horrid level-scaling than whether or not magicka regenerated. Both of which should be fixed now.

I thought reading the scrolls made you go blind...
