...You do realize that this forum is full of TES fans right? As for selling it, I don't care. Either does anyone else. Just sell it if you don't like it...

You won't get much money for it at all. Just keep it.

Give it another chance.

I genuinely beleive... *looks around to check the area is free of Morrowind fans :ninja:* Ok. I genuinely believe Oblivion to be one of the greatest games of all time. The quest objectives do have big green arrows above them on the map, and if you're really stuck, there are countless other quests you can do instead. There's no obligation to finish the quest once you've started.

This game isn't for everybody. It's four years old, you'll get about five bucks for it. Although, I don't understand something, by the time you realized you couldn't install the second disc data, was it too late to get your money back?

Why can't you play the "GOTY content"?


An even better question, how did you manage to fall asleep playing the game? Or are just being glib?

I hate when people think someones being a troll :(

Some people are just not into some games or its being glitchy to them.

I'd keep it, try it once more and besides you won't get much oney from it anyways.

GOTY wont work because my hardrive used to belong to soem one who used "LIVE" they gave it to me when they upgraded to a 250 gig I have never had "LIVE" connected to my system so the data transfer thingy is bugged so i wont be able to play the GOTY unless i get connected to "LIVE"

I recently bough a 60 GIG hardrive came with an etehrnet cable but my computer has only one etehrnet cable port which is being used by the modem , and i cant unplug the modem and put it my console because then my computers internet just goes completly :/ meaning i 100% cant connect to "LIVE"

as for falling asleep while playing the game

Ive beaten the thives guild

Dark Brother hood

and Arena Questlines

80% completed the mage guild quest line

and 5% completed teh fighters guild questline

I dont have much left to do the main quest is quite boring and my weapon and armour or almost 100% useless interms of being weapons and armour very useful at being items to help me get more items :/

and my current quest are all basically go to places with little to no lute and gather items that took more trouble to get than the reward for gettng them is worth

Sounds like you are better moving on. For players who are about completing quests and getting loot, Oblivion has a short life span to boredom. Play, quest, complete, move on.

Roleplayers on the other hand, can get stuck in Cyrodiil for years. . . . :)

I was about to disagree with you concerning quests, but then I'm on computer where one can add tons of new quests and adventures. I'd say the bulk of my mods are quest-oriented, most of the others add new structures and/or locales or make the game look better. In any case I'm something of a roleplayer and immersionist in addition to being a quest-junkie.

As for OP, sounds like the game might not be his/her cup of tea. As little as it's worth in trade, I say hang on to it in hope a future play-attempt will produce more favorable results. Might want to read through the more play-oriented threads here to see what others like about the game and how they make it "work" for themselves.

How are you a diviner if you haven't completed the main quest and are thinking about selling the game back? I also smell a troll.

But really, you won't make a profit off of selling it. If you don't like it you're better off just keeping and not playing it.

put this game back into my console for at least a month now


And that's the problem. By playing Oblivion on a console, you are missing out on all the mods, and are thus only experiencing half of the game (and the worse half I would say).

Why sell it? You won't get much for it, and you might get a craving for it again in the future. Personally, I think selling any game, except for truly horrible ones, is a mistake. Selling my favorite game would be pure blasphemy to me. Guess what's my favorite game. It starts with an "O" and ends with an "n". :stare:

Yes. How did you know? My second favorite is Oblivion, though, so don't sell it, either. :P

Yea I was gonna say it sounds like EpicFail has done most of the game anyways, and is now bored with it.

To the OP: since you've finished several questlines and nearly-completed others, it makes no sense to try and get your money back. Haven't you had the game in your possession for awhile now? . I think my local GameStop won't accept returns after a week or 2.

Your game store most likely will just tell you "tough luck". YOu need to upgrade (or change) your system, and the clerk will probably point you in this direction instead of trying to give you the $20 you spent on Oblivion

Yes, they can. They surely can.

Funny, this came up in the Morrowind General Discussion forum too. A poster in that thread claims to be a roleplayer and also claims to have "beaten" the game. I love when people say they have "beaten" the game. It's so cute.
