I just lost all my [censored] in the shivering isles dlc cause I got arrested :banghead: and I cant get anything back so I was wondering what frustrates you the most about the game?

I get frustrated when I'm trying to climb a hill and all the sudden it gets super-steep, and then my character or his/her horse starts walking in place. : :swear: that just annoys me. Imps annoy me too. How does this little twerp of a creature get to throw the same spells a humanoid does?

Wolves can be frustrating, too, especially when my character jsut wants to take a walk on his or her horse. A wolf shows up, now there's no choice but to get up to full gallop (I don't usually like dismounting just to deal with the wolf)..

Mountain lions. They are really freaking deadly. Will O the Wisps too, but my character doesn't run into them as much.

I don't like imps either. I usually let a summon deal with them.

I was attacked by a lion yesterday on the way to Bruma, I swear that road is deadly. 2 bandits, a lion and 3 bears swarmed me on a steep bit and nearly finished off me and my horse. Luckily the bandits went for the animals before they went for me, allowing me to get away. I looked back as I was galloping into the distance and saw one of the bears mauling one of the bandits. I think I'll stick to the wilderness when I leave Bruma, around those parts it's slightly safer than the roads! :confused:

It's not actually "in the game," but what frustrates me most about Oblivion - and has since day one - is Oblivion's menus. Oblivion's menus are the worst menus I have ever experienced in any video game in my life. Menu pages accessed through the tab key give me the beginnings of carpel tunnel syndrome after just an hour or two of play. More than once I've turned the game off before I was ready to quit because I just couldn't stand to navigate through tabbed pages...and more tabbed pages within tabbed pages. Visually, the fonts are Playskool-large and the icons cartoony. They were designed to be viewed from way across the room on a TV. Seen close up on a computer monitor at 2560x1600 the whole thing looks grotesque and, on a computer, is unnecessarily hard to navigate.

Frustration for me = Infamy.

How does one unsually gain infamy? By getting caught! So if I've never been caught doing something. Never had a murder reported. Never wear assassin looking gear out in public and don't take stuff in peoples view, how does a character collect these *points*? It's like a bad smell that collects on the bottom of your shoe.

Imps are the only creature I will mess with the difficulty slider when facing. I looked up their stats in my old D&D book and they're supposed to be one-hit kills. They're supposed to be Wimps (ha ha, get it?), so it makes no sense that this little flying thing can take blow after blow from weapons. So whenever I face a imp, I'll kick the slider down from center so one arrow or one fireball or sword swing will take them down. There! Take that!



Hey that's me! kickin' back in bed while the TV screen is across the room. I have no issue with Oblivion's menus of course!



Wow you're right. Never thought of it that way.

On the bright side, i bet the scenary views are stunning on that large screen im enjoying it with my 1366x768 screen a lot

Mountain Lions :swear: I hate those horrible beasts. They won't stop pouncing!!! I never have enough time to block them because they knock me over again or kill me before I get a change to even get steady.
I also hate the Legion. When I am robbing someone in the wilderness, their cry for help shouldn't send a guard from five miles away...

When you walk into a chapel after a long voyage, hoping that you can cure your diseases and restore your health, magicka, and attributes, but you are told to repent some crime that you committed ages ago.

Did you consider the imps in Doom to be whimps as well? :laugh:

I don′t like many things in Oblivion actually. One thing is that the normal wildlife attacks you. Why is that? They should just run away.

actually u dont have to get caught to gain infamy, just go murder some ppl and ur infamy will slowly go up. helps to be in the dark bros as well

ye whats with the will-of-the-wisps? they seem to be stupid hard for a melee class unless u recharge ur magic weapon first

Yeah, but the point is that "infamy" is actually what other people think of you. If they don't know you did a crime, how do you get infamy?

^^ Exactly, infamy is something you get when crimes become linked to you. Everybody thought Ted Bundy was a heck of a guy! ... until. If that until never comes, how then does one deserve/get infamy?

argnoians

eh? if you get arrested in the SI your gear will be in a chest by the entrance of the dungeon.
