Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Likes And Dislikes

*Spitfire* · 05-30-2006, 08:42 AM

I've had this game for awhile now, and long enough to have some likes and dislikes that I can strongly stand by. Some of these are infleunced by looking at the past games and how they were compared to this.

At first I loved everything. It was all so awesome. The combat, the world, the people. After awhile though...

Yes caves and mines are nice but that is ALL there is. You can explore caves, mines*Which both look the same*, old forts, and then towns. All the caves look the same too. And I watched my friend play #3 for about 10 minutes and I saw alot of cool different looking places.

The glass stuff sucks but they make it out to be the best. So if you play long enough eventually everyone has lame ass glass armor.

The enemies leveling with you thing can be very annoying. So no matter what level you are if a monster can own you it can own you.

The quests suck. There are two quests. Go get something for someone or kill someone. There ya have it.

The speech thing to get people to like you is alright but nothing all that great.

Okay so for some good? I enjoy the combat and the graphics are great. The enemies look cool and are fun to fight. Lots of fun spells! Being a vampire was fun while I had it, but quickly got annoying. I can kill people...if I want!

Not much huh? I may have a longer list of complaints but I still like the game. After playing Fable for a few minutes yesterday I'm glad I have a game like this. It's bigger and such. I would go back to #3 and play it but the combat is so awful I can't stand it. And I don't like text talking games anymore.

So how about you, have you played? Likes and dislikes?
