I've missed out on the whole Elder Scroll series, but I've heard alot of good stuff about Oblivion. Should I just go and buy it? |

No, I advice you to buy Morrowind, plus all official additions plus browse morrowind forums/sites for all the cool enhancements. And steer away from Oblivion imo. Morrowind is good story and cool gameplay and/but shit graphics (without fan-made plugins/mods/enhancement) and Oblivion is cool graphics plus shit gameplay, compared to Morrowind - but that's only what I've heard, I haven't played Oblivion - enhanced Morrowind is enough to me :> |

Okay, thanks. Hey, shitty graphics has never been a problem for me. :D I'm trying to find all these old golden nuggets that the new generation of gamers don't care about. It's always these rubbish discussions about graphics, or PS3 vs 360. I've found a game called , but I haven't installed it yet. |

if you're not familiar with rpgs i would play oblivion first as its a bit more accessible. morrowind is awesome but the combat system was woeful at best. You'll easily get around 200 hours of play out of each. Anachronox is a bit dated, but its worth giving a go. Its got an interesting and well acted script and is the only game I've played (excluding early lucas arts games) that has actually made me properly laugh. iirc its a bit buggy but worth putting up with. |

I liked oblivion a lot and really tried to get into Morrowind, but the combat was just terrible. It instantly breaks the suspension of disbelief. It's like playing a game from the times we had scaled sprites instead of 3d models for enemies. Looking forward to the new one. |

fuck these modern 3d rpgs, you semi-retarded twats. baldur's gate 2 & planescape: torment is where it's at. they're based on d&d rules which have been developed and perfected for a couple of decades. why even TRY to develop your own rules from the ground up. it'll only appeal to the aforementioned semi-retarded console crowd anyway. i haven't played a single 3d rpg which is anywhere near the quality of these two titles in terms of balance. for instance, it seems like the leveling system and all-round rules of modern 3d rpgs are based on a couple of hours of brainstorming. here's how i picture one of these meetings: bob: "okay, we've got to have strength as as skill." nancy: "yeah, but what about vitality?" bob: "sure, stick that in the game, too." nancy: "what about charisma?" bob: "shut the fuck up, nancy. you're fired" |

So 400 hours then, if I play them both... I remember playing Final Fantasy VI for about 80 hours. Thought it was the biggest game ever (back then). I've only played Planescape: Torment to the computer, as far as rpgs go. One a side note I really like the Thief series - Thief 2 in particular. I thought I'd never get it to work on a multi-core system, but hey, lucky me. I think I'll begin with Oblivion, then. Thanks! |

I might get it, just because I find well done procedurally-generated worlds beautiful as things in themselves. |

I just got it for 30 $, I'm afraid to play it and have no more social life :( |

Since my last post in this thread, I got it as a birthday present. It seems okay, but I just can't get into it. I've spent more time watching youtube videos of people playing it [particularly Walken] than I have played it myself. |
