The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
 
So, is anyone interested in this game? I know I am, and I already preordered the Collectors Edition! Just 2 weeks left!

Check THIS out! Amd make sure to see the Xbox 360 screenshots as well!

Huzzah 4 the 360, cuz it runs the game the same as a pc with all the visuals cranked all up!

Leto 03-09-2006 01:11 PM

I CREATED THE LAST FRED.

And I am very happy about the release date. Only 13 days left here.

YHEY! ^_^

Christ, how mnay times is this thread going to be made?

But yeah, I can't wait to purchase it!

T-nex 03-09-2006 02:41 PM

omg!! So little time left!!!!!!!!!!! :o lol!! I can't wait...

^_^ I'm just so excited... damn... Now i can't relax. Thank you very much AlphaScrab :-(

SeaRex 03-09-2006 06:29 PM

This is going to be the LAST Oblivion thread, folks. Really now. I'm almost tempted to sticky this.

On a different note, those new Daedroth look pretty wicked.

Mojo 03-10-2006 12:49 AM

Lol, I'm sorry if there where more...

Anyways, the Daedroth DOES look cool! Different than Morrowinds, but still cool! Ad for the Clannfear, they look a bit... Tiny to me.
But the things that are gonna be the coolest are the HAVOK physics, and the forests!

Leto 03-10-2006 12:29 PM

The sound track is avaliable for download at www.directsong.com , or your nearest limewire agent.

I'm only listening to the preview tracks, don't want all of the music spoiled. But damn, I thought Morrowind's was good, but Oblivion's is excellent.

Scrab Watcher 03-10-2006 01:33 PM

My computer can't handle it. I have no 360. I cannot afford a 360. It seems I shall be Oblivion deprived for some time. *tear* I envy you people.

SeaRex 03-18-2006 11:39 AM

Why wait until Wednesday to create your character class? Go here.

I'm more than a little disappointed that my three favorite skills (Spear, Medium Armor, and Enchant) have been scrapped. Also kinda disappointed that Security affects agility and not intelligence, mainly because that makes no sense, but sacrifices must be made to streamline the process, I suppose.

I was actually thinking of making two characters, so I can fulfill all of the Xbox360 Achievements between the two of them...

Name: Edgar
Class: Templar
Race: Breton Male
Birthsign: The Mage
Specialization: Magic (or maybe Combat... haven't decided)
Attributes: Endurance, Intelligence

Blunt Weapon
Heavy Armor
Block
Armorer
Alchemy
Mysticism
Alteration

--------------------

Name: Hattori
Class: Ninja
Race: Dark Elf Male
Birthsign: The Thief
Specialization: Stealth
Attributes: Strength, Agility

Blade
Marksman
Light Armor
Acrobatics
Sneak
Security
Illusion

I payed off the $70 for the Collector's Edition months ago. (August?)

My bro just got us the guide.

And I've been creating a Paladin Template...

God, this game will ****ing rock.

Abe's son 03-18-2006 05:13 PM

Buying it for PC, because PC is far superior than any console every made.

And because it'll rock hardcore.

Wired 03-18-2006 06:04 PM

No doubt one of my friends will buy it. I'll probably make a file on their Xbox360 and give this game a try.

I'd personally go for the peaceful, sensitive bard. Seems more me, you know? ;)

I think completely planning out characters beforehand is, well, supergeekenfest. I'm just going to make what looks/seems appealing. Most probably an Argonian, as they look roxor from the 3 day countdown video.

Khajiits, on the other hand, I have completely lost faith in.

SeaRex 03-18-2006 07:35 PM

Dude. It's Oddworld forums. A forum completely founded around a single series of video games. What did you expect? :p

On a different note, I completely agree with you about the Argoinian/Khajiit thing. Argoinans look much, much better than I originally thought. Khajiits... much, much worse.

I should rape you over the internet.

Yeah. The khajiits look sort of cartoony, like the eyes are drawn on almost. A look that doesn't fit in well with the rest of the game...

The new video is okish, more combat. Land dreugh thing is cool.

OMG OB IN TWO DAEZ.

nads 03-20-2006 10:51 AM

You guys have all seen the "____ days left" videos, right?

Do u own a top of the line hardcore-mega-pc? With the best of the best graphics card? And the best sound? No? Then you will probably not be able to turn all the visual effects to the max. Which makes your PC inferior to the 360.

Goresplatter 03-21-2006 01:32 PM

I was gonna get it, but realised it would pwn my PC.
Also, a Q about the X-Box 360, does it run regular X-Box games too? Could be a chance for me to get Munch and Stranger, aswell as some other awesome stuff like this! (I don't want to get a normal X-Box cause it'll be outdated in about five minutes)

Majic 03-21-2006 02:10 PM

Oblivion is the great lord's way of saying "David, your computey is on the brink of fossilization."

Back in the day, this puppy could handle anything. But alas, half a decade later, I'm ashamed to say it falls only at the "required" stats. Also known as, humiliation.

You do realise the the 360's a piece of shit processor, right? It's a glorified Amiga.

For your information I'm building a Dual Dual Viper with an X1900. And I don't care that much about graphics, so long as it isn't blocky shit. And the prices on the "Top of the line hardcore-mega-pc" drop faster than the consoles prices and the PC continues to improve.

Also, PC is superior.

Your surfing the internet with one right now, unless it's a Mac.

You can also mod games, hack games, edit things down to the source on your own.

From a person who's playing Oblivion as I type this...you have to have a JESUS COMPUTER to handle it.

Go on the Oblivion PC forums, half the guys are spending 10 minute loads, 5 FPS...

I'm going smooth as butter.

No piece of shit processor can produce ingame graphics of this calibre.

Do I really need to go on?

SeaRex 03-22-2006 06:23 PM

Ugh. Stow the bickering, you two.

As for those who have Oblivion, post your character/skills! If you don't have it yet, post your character once you do.

Leto 03-22-2006 09:22 PM

Argonian. Level four. Must go play some more.

Them scamps are some bitches. New cliffracer I says.

Bravil will so be my home.

If I don't stop talking now I wont stop.

T-nex 03-23-2006 12:53 PM

Wow... I'm just happy my laptop passed the minimum system requiremts :-O
I have a 2 GHz processor, but i have 1024 mb ram and a ATI graphic card... So I'm hoping i will be able to enjoy the fine graphics XD...
Damn, the game is coming out tommorow... And i forgot to preorder :-(... Now I'll have to wait a bit longer to get the game... *cries*

SeaRex 03-23-2006 01:08 PM

You shouldn't worry too much, T-nex. From the people I've talked to, it sounds like the PC versions of the game are having a hard time selling out, mainly because there are so few people that can run it. So who knows? Maybe you'll be like a couple of my friends who were pleasantly surprised to find several PC copies in stock.

T-nex 03-23-2006 02:04 PM

YEa well.. WHen i went to ask when the game came out, they said it was on friday, but that you had to preorder it in order to get it.... Ah well, I don't know if thwy only get the number of ordered copies or whatever, so i guess it's worth a shot to see if i can get my hands on one of the copies :p

Godlesswanderer 03-23-2006 04:15 PM

NEWS:

Oh what an insightful post! Oh god! I hereby thank you for changing my life with that post!

You can kiss the fattest part of my ass. Nothing more stupid than a useless post than COMMENTARY to go with it. Now, Wired, if you had any way of playing it without having to suck off a friend to play it, then I could consider actually listening to anything you say.

And Now, to contribute:

My character as of 12:00 AM Today

Male
Imperial
Paladin
Warrior
Level 6
Skills:
Blade
Alchemy
Armorer
Heavy Armor
SpeechCraft
Marksman

Check my acheivements. I beat the Arena, about half way through Fighters, and I joined all of the others.
