Hi guys. I've played like 100+ hours of Skyrim and I liked it. Is Oblivion worth my money?

Have you played Morrowind or any such RPG? Oblivion feels old and Skyrim is a huuuuuge improvement over the other games (although Morrowind got me more hooked than Skyrim for some reason).

well EU4 is now 75% off, and I promised myself I'd get it at that price.

after picking up darkest hour and endless space yesterday, good bye life as i know it?


dude, I bought EU IV a few weeks ago, got about 500 hours in already and no end in sight. This game is consuming my life.
Also I still feel like a newbie sometimes, experiencing new surprising stuff all the time. And continuous updates and new DLC will probably keep me playing this for about the rest of my life :D


We can use this information to put a lower bound on "few". A week has 168 hours. Thus, if you have put in 500 hours over a few weeks, " a few" is at least 2.98. If we assume that you actually do have to sleep for 7 hours a day, and maybe eat for another hour, we are at 4.46.


sounds about accurate :D

I just checked my transaction history, I bough EU IV on the third of October so that would be 79 days. With a total of 492 hours played that would make about 6.23 hours a day.
That's not entirely accurate as I left it on while doing other stuff as well, had it running in the background even while learning for some exams and stuff and I left it on overnight a few times. Still that's a huge amount. I should stop playing so much

So a few weeks seems to be about 11.29 weeks. Good to know what a few weeks means in my own definition :D


btw there's a 90% discount on Shadow Warrior Oo
cool stuff, for that price I'll get it
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

I think that Morrowind is the better game for a few reasons. The variety you get in melee combat and the armor you can equip is quite various. The overall feel that that region has is very nice as well, I like the fact that there are no obvious quest markers and that you have to read your journal to figure out what you're supposed to do.

For me, Morrowind > Oblivion > Skyrim. I prefer Oblivion quests and guilds to Skyrim. It does feel older, but if you can get used to the feel it is a really good game.

Edit: For me the reason why Morrowind was better was mostly atmosphere. The sound effects and fog might seem outdated now but it felt more like real exploration. And the variety of landscapes was awesome. I'd rather have worse graphics with more variety.

I was going to post the same thing about Morrowind.
I was really one of the first 3d open world game and it really did feel open.

Oblivion was a huge disapointment because each city was a clone of the previous one. In Morrowind, even the small fisher village with 3 hut has it's feeling. You need to know your travel routes and so on. The combat is very bad though and don't expect enemies to be animated. Also, evil bird.... brrrrrrrrrr. Hate those so much I trained my archery skills and cleared always the area around from the top of a hill.

There are really crazy architecture in Morrowind, mushroom city, giant undersand dome cities... every place you reach has surprises.

Haha glad many feel the same about Morrowind as I do. Morrowind really had the better "feel" and atmosphere of all the TES.

I didn't play Oblivion and Skyrim a whole lot but I've finish Morrowind (no modifications) without the expansion. While I agree with some people here saying that Morrowind has the better "feel" of all the TES games, the combat and AI are just really really terrible in Morrowind. I bet could easily play the whole thing with only a bow without ever getting hit. The AI was downright stupid, abusing terrain models is something that made me laugh at the AI countless time. The combat wasn't engaging whatsoever and it felt more like a chore after only a couple hours of play rather than something actually fun to do. The story was pretty good tho.

I also remember the hyp around Oblivion that now each character had his own life scripted, that they would go eat, sleep etc...

Imagine the disapointment when in the city clock hits 8 pm, all npc at the same second starts to walk home :D. before that they stayed like 12 hour in the same spot in the street.

Basically in Morrowind, there was no AI or anything but strangely, it broke less immersion than a bad implementation.

Dont bother like me with defense grid 2, it has no balance. Half the tower types are useless and if you play storymode with the new items and boost towers, you can build a single tower type only and win everything.

Better buy DG1 or one of the other million TD games on steam, like creeper world 3, Orcs must die, Defenders Quest, Kingdom Rush, Revenge of Titans etc etc







Also, dont hate on Morrowind, when it released it looked super impressive to me, had like 30 weapon types, had all those spells you could come up with and had a huge world to explore.
I think most people had never played a game like that before.

I agree that Morrowind is the better game, but it hasnt aged very well, the combat is downright terrible (not that it was very good on Oblvion and Skyrim to be fair)... its still an amazing game, and when it was released it blew my mind

But that Oblivion is better than Skyrim ? i dont think so, if anything Oblivion is one of the weakest entries, its not a very good game at all imo. slugish, subpar story and the faces... oh the faces, i think of them i want to kill myself rofl

On another thing, Shadow Warrior for $4 its armed robbery, get it, please, one of the best FPS out there nowadays, and from the true old school FPS developer :D

Oblivion is worth the buy. At least to download the free full conversion Nehrim in my opinion.

I have played and enjoyed all three of the elder scroll games mentioned here though, I think they're all games worth picking up.

All of the Elder Scroll games are garbage unless you mod the shit out of them.
Average means I'm better than half of you.

That's definitely untrue. Skyrim and Oblivion in particular are fantastic even without mods.

Skyrim depends what you compare it to.

Oblivion, no way. You need to spend more hours modding the game than playing it for it to not suck.

I had a lot of fun with Oblivion without mods, but that was when the game was released.
