Elder Scrolls: Oblivion

I completed the arena! i made that orc mah bitch once I gave him the diary. I beat him to death with my fist and now I'm wondering if lv up the fist stat is worth it? I'm a monk but I didn't know what I was doing when I made myself a monk class so is it work it to lv up fist, i mean I don't really go around punching people if they have swords.
 
Oblivion sucks on consoles. No such thing as Uber loot when everyone and their grandmother levels up at the same time as you. Play it on PC and get the balance mod. You will thank me later.

and Btw Morrowind is better! Much better.

I did the vampire cure quest, it was pretty long, def one of the most interesting quests in the game.



Actually, PS3/X360 version run bearly in 30fps and can drop below 10fps in any Oblivion plane or just when there are too many characters on the screen. I wouldn't call it a slight problem because sometimes it makes the game unplayable. I died many times during Battle for castle kvatch quest because the game run at 5 fps all the time when the entire town swarming with deadra, lol. On PC it's somewhat better but Oblivion unfortunately is a poorly optimised game, it uses only one CPU core, so no matter how many cores you have it will run like crap...

i really have to disagree with you here ring. i got an original PS3 right back from where they 1st came out, and i've never had any framerate problems as severe as this, and i've beaten the game(all quests included) maybe 20 or so times by now. infact the only 2 times i've ever had frame rate problems is when trying to kill every1 in every single twn, and when heavily glitching the game to do things i wasnt supposed to(like filling up a portion of the waterfront with nothing but black horse courier...)

meh i stick to my point that the game really only gets unbalanced if u dont crank up the difficulty or if u do things you're not supposed to do. oblivion is fine w/o rebalancing IMO. but once u've got everything done having all of that extra content is really nice. and certain user made ad-ons are really nice as well.

morrowind is indeed a solid game.
 
I played the game first on PS3 and I still remember having terrible framerate problems. I think it's mostly related to characters, they slow down the game considerably, more than anything else. The more of them on the screen, the worst framerate. I did battle for castle kvatch quest at level 20+ with all that big ass daedra and it literally run at 5 fps, Ive never seen anything like that on any console/game.

I agree with Engared, I actually thought that Oblivion was awesome the first time I played it, but then it became boring and easy. The balance mods on PC change the game so that it's much more enjoyable. The enemies dont level up with you and they are fixed so most of them will kick your butt at the beginning and you will have to level up before you can match them. And also the new super bosses, they kind of seem like Final Fantasy optional bosses. I still havent been able to beat some of them, most notably Umbra, who is also present in un-modded version of the game and known as one of the toughest opponents. I die in 1-2 hits all the time.

I tried playing Morrowind but.. not to sound like a graphic whore, the character animation is like the worst I have ever seen in a video game. It's just repulsive, I cant play at 3rd person view with it, it's too distracting for me. Even old PSX games had motion capture done, I dont understand why they didnt do that for morrowind.... and if they did, they did it wrong.
 
=P graphics smaphics. THESE are good graphics:

(FFII for the famicom. i played and beat this, very good game IMO)
and heres an example of what i call high definition graphics:
Diablo1-1.jpg
(Diablo1 FTW!)(i still play if any1 is interested)
classic video games FTW!!! ^_^ they dont make things the way they did in the good old days...*sigh* TT-TT

oh and u shud see how "high def" oblivion looks with mods running on my pentium 4 1GB ram computer with cheap graphics card, especially if i try to run the game at 60fps =P
