Do you read all in game lore? Does it make the game more imm

Like the title asks...

In Oblivion I did not take the time to read any of the lore books I found or bought.

Do you take the time to read them?

Does it make the game deeper or atleast help you enjoy the game more?

Absolutely. Its only by reading the lore that you get the real picture that your "hero" is a very small part of a very large picture of what is happening in the world.

The lore of the TES series is pretty expansive. It is for those that like to learn all they can about the game world they are exploring. It isn't for everyone, but if you like to RP, read, or just gain knowledge about the game you're playing it is a blast. It will help explain past, current, and future events to some extent and just adds to the overall immersion that some like to get lost in. I personally think it is great.

I used to but sometimes the text is just too convoluted to continue.

EDIT: Are most of the books in Morrowind making a return?

I make libraries of rare books in Rosethorn Hall. I love the books in Oblivion, so I store them on shelves with my own Dewey Decimal System.

Do I read all, no. I read a lot, though.

I'm just hoping Skyrim isn't lacking detailed accounts of the past 200 years. I need to know what has happened in Tamriel.

Is there a color code to books rare or not?

Is there a list of rare books that we can search for to complete a library?

How do you know what dooks to get first etc...


(how cool is a game like Oblivion/skyrim where it is so deep we can wonder about completing a library?
