I'm finally playing oblivion and I'm actually gonna finish it this time because most of the main problems are fixed and I got mods with a stable game. When I finish the mq I'm gonna right myself an autobiography/journal.....in game and then I'll post it here. Character Name: Veric Thetric Race:Breton Class: Mage Specialization: magic Birthsign: the Mage Willpower, intelligence Blunt, destruction, conjuration, mysticm, alteration, restoration, alchemy Impressions: oblivion isn't that bad. Voice acting does wonders, even of they are repetitive, it's better than silence. And even if radient ai is kinda.....dumb I have to sAy npcs are better than in morrowind. Atleast they do something.

I need a break from Oblivion, but here is the picture I took just before I un-installed the game (yet again): Edited by Ashiraniir, Jun 6 2009, 08:07 PM.

I've done everything in both Oblivion and Morrowind, can't find any good quest mods, and went through and killed almost every non-respawning character.

... Huh. Posts: 1,638 Group: Member Member #351 Joined: April 24, 2008	But I think that changing the lore in Oblivion made the game less cool... So we're not so different after all, are we?

Slaughterfish Posts: 159 Group: Member Member #527 Joined: May 5, 2009	I've some handy tips if you're going into withdrawal but still want to play the game. Whenever I get a bit bored of Obliv, I just create a different character. I mean my first character was mainly combat-orientated, a Nord with all the attributes and skills you'd expect from a smash-and-crash character. Did most of Oblivion, got bored with Losgord (Losgord the Nord was his name ) , so I made a Breton Mage. This one, I think, is much better, because even though at the lower levels in the beginning of the game it can be quite difficult, once you're past that a Mage character really gets awesome, when you're at a liberty to create lvl-100 spells of paralyzing, health-draining and absorbing all at the same time. My next character's going to be a stealthy bow-slingin' assassin. I can't wait . P.S Ash that picture is awesome. I got one on Dive Rock just when the sun is just setting, and my char's gazing out towards the magenta skies... Unfortunately I have a PS3 so I can do fck all with it.

I get bored with my characters really easily(there is only one character I have per specialty that i can get into and go[would be 4 if I was able to have a spellsword, but with only being able to have 7 major skills, it doesn't work that well]), and 2. I always power-level at the beginning because I hate getting crappy stuff that I'm never gonna use.

Weakly Interacting Massive Particle Posts: 120 Group: Member Member #532 Joined: May 22, 2009	i like combining different types of characters because it doesn't work properly. it makes the game harder without me having to put it on full difficulty. which is rubbish. what did they think; "we can't be bothered to make smart, difficult combat AI's so we'll just make everything have loads of health and damage. that way players will get bored of dodging and attacking because it takes so long to kill anything." a player-"OMG! A rat what am i going to do?! AAAAAAH! RUN AWAY!" i once fought three minotours on top difficulty in the arena with a level 40ish close combat character. it took me over an hour to kill them! at the moment im combining archery and magic to try all long range. but i keep getteng bored at the start in the dungeons.
