After the mysterious and untimely death of the Emperor, desperate factions
vie for control of Tamriel's throne. With the empire ready to crumble, the
gates of Oblivion open and demons march upon the land, laying waste to
everything in their path. To turn the tide of darkness the player must find
the lost heir to the throne and unravel the sinister plot that threatens to
destroy all of Tamriel.

Fucking good game. I have all the settings at max, slows down a lot when you're being attacked by more than a couple of enemies (outside being the worst for this).

I killed a sheep, was arrested for it and sent to jail. I then started a fight with a fellow inmate and made my escape when the guard opened the door to break up the fight. With only the shirt on my back I made my way out of town and stole a horse which I rode off a cliff. Good game.

Edit: Yeah, it takes a while before you get out of that GTA-esque "killing spree" type mood.

My redguard thief pussy'd out on the sheep. I mean, it just stood there bleeding while I kept pounding my sword at it... Atleast have the decency to flee!

The game is holding up so far, it's easy to get caught up in the numerous side quests while ignoring the whole oblivion issue. Also, the game runs pretty much flawless at high on a mid/high system.

I don't think it runs very well at all on the xbox. Probably better off using a 360 or PC. The 360 has some minor issues I've read about, but there is a fix for it (something about hard drives and fragmentation). I've also heard about some slowdown with multiple enemies on the screen (something I get with my high-end system as well).

Can a person with a 360 hard drive download a patch? I know that Bethesda will be making some official mods available for download, so it stands to reason (at least in my mind) that a patch could be made for 360 problems.

I guess I'm just not an RPG fan.

I played for about an hour (up to the point where I got outside), and it's just kinda boring so far. Slow, and the combat wasn't much fun. I'll try and give it another go soon.

Part of it may be that it didn't run too well on my system I guess, stuck at around 25-30 fps, and that's just indoors.

When you set up your character,you get the chance to change it as you exit the prison.
Murdering innocents gets you an invite to The Dark Brotherhood.
The more you use your skills the quicker it gos up,and you only level up by using your major skills,plus you can always buy training.

Defiently one of the best games I've ever played, it's just a shame I'll complete it and all the side missions soon enough. Ah, well there is always the mods. Speaking of which here are a couple of "must have" mods:

No Psychic Guards (http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=129): This one makes the guards more realistic, your crimes won't be reported unless a guard is within sound range.

Quickstart (http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=OblivionMods.Detail&id=74): Skip the first training mission, good for those of us who like to experiment with all the different race/class combinations.


Unfortunately you have to register to get the mods, but I'd imagine most of you have Gamespy accounts. Oh, these mods won't work for 360 users unfortunately.Though I hear Bethesda are releasing an official mod at some point, it will allow your horse to wear armour.

Edit: Those of you with weaker PC set-ups should check out the official forums (http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/) for ini tweaks, some people are reporting good fps rises by editing the ini.

You can pay the fine, pay half the fine if you are a Thieves Guild member or serve your time in jail. Every time you go into town you should enter into a dialogue with a guard giving you the option of paying the fine or going to jail. You'll need to sneak into the Imperial City Waterfront area to do the Thieves Guild thing.

If you go into jail you might be able to pick the lock (quicksave/load if you feel like cheating) with the one pick you seem to get and sneak off, get caught escaping and it will just add to your fine or time in jail.

/rambling: My only gripe about the game is that I don't like the level scaling system, fortunately there is a mod that addresses this out already and hopefully there will be some more soon.

My character managed to stay oblivious to an obscure disease for 3 days, and recently *turned*... ugly. He's currently travelling the land for a cure to this state of unholy uglyness.

As for beating those 3 convicts, my thief managed it quite well by staying out of range showering arrows upon them. :)

My character managed to stay oblivious to an obscure disease for 3 days, and recently *turned*... ugly. He's currently travelling the land for a cure to this state of unholy uglyness.

As for beating those 3 convicts, my thief managed it quite well by staying out of range showering arrows upon them. :)How to you get the diseases in this game? I don't think I got one yet. :unsure:

I don't know about other diseases, but whenever you fight a vampire you have a chance of getting the disease Polymorphic Hemophylia. Seek a cure at the nearest holy place within 3 days!

As a vampire you get stat boosts, the ability of nightvision and increased speed. However you have to feed regularly to keep your appearence somewhat decent, and be cautious with sunlight.

One mission I had to help some fighters guild fight some goblins but that didnt last long.
you stop in your guild houses for free and get repairs at a reduced rate.
If you have a horse he'll fight with you against enemys sometimes

The Random Oblivion mod is pretty good, gets rid of the level scaling and puts in randomly levelled mobs instead. You get your ass kicked at low levels but at mid levels the battles become a real challenge. I just stormed Kvatch fighting Storm Antronachs, Daedroths and Spider Daedra.

This was better than when I did it under level scaling when I got to fight...imps.

I prefer to fight them like it is! Now that i am a Berton i can pretty easy beat them with my magic!

it's a pity that it's so hard to mess around with this radiant AI. i've had a guard steal money off pirates but that's about it. i think i'm gonna spend the entire night trying to cause a fight in that guard tower thingy :smilie4:

I got from a site when it was first released. But today i went out and bought the collectors edition. Ive gotta say this game is definetly worth every penny. I just cant wait til they work all the bugs out for it. I heard a rumor they are gonna be releasing a video patch that is specificly geared towards optimizing cards for that game alone.

does anyone get ffdshow problems while playing this game? i'm sure it's taking up my resources while i'm playing the game. when i quit there are like 25+ ffdshow icons in my systray. wtf? if i scroll over them with my mouse they all go away without me having to close them manually. pretty gay. this game is the only game that does this. someone else having this prob?

also, i have a question about stealing. what does it do to you if u get caught? i know u can go to jail or pay a fine, but does it hurt ur stats or game later on or something? i was just stealing shit for the hell of it and stole a lot of shit, then a guard shows up and wants me to pay a fine or go to jail. i just restarted from my last save so i wouldn't have to pay or go to jail. i lost nothing, but didn't want to pay or go to jail. if u steal some things and leave town is it like u never stole anything at all? can u wait a couple of days? or does the game remember and the guards catch up with u later anyway?

lol, lastely... i'm still pretty much at the beginning of the game. i've started over 3 times just to get my character where i want him. anyway, what's the best way to lvl up? just use ur major skillz until it says ur do for a lvl up and then go sleep? go around and explore caves? do the major quest? lol, pftt, my first elder scrolls and first person rpg. not sure about this yet... thx!

if you steal shit and get caught you go to jail and lose statz :dabs:


i usually hide stuff in random barres around the place and use the food straight away. that way i know i can'tget caught with it

Unfortunately the game world resets itself occasionally and anything not stored in your own personal storage containers (ie your own house) is lost forever.

Open the Oblivion launcher, the manager thing is under 'Data Files'.

The mods are from: http://www.tessource.net/files/

But you will need to register.

The pet shop mod I got from here: http://www.proudfootimaging.com/ladye/mods.shtml

Try uninstalling ffdshow and then try and then reinstall fddshow and try again.

Or disable all the startup videos for Oblivion and see if that fixes it.

go to my documents/my games/oblivion/oblivion.ini and change the value of bUseHardDriveCache to 1


it doesn't really have an effect straight away but once part of a level is loaded it opens quicker the next time you access it :dabs:

Get Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul 1.3 and a few other must-have mods and the game pisses all over Morrowind.
