Things about Oblivion that make you roll your eyes

[lco1138]

"You have my ear, citizen."

"Huh? Oh... " *Jaina delves into her pocket and hands the guard his ear* "Sorry. There ya go, have it back."

 

*Jaina walks along IC to the Market District*

"Greetings, Champion!" "Hello"

"Good morning" "Morning..."

"Its... Its you! The Divine Crusader! This truly is an honour!" "Yes its me... hello..." *rolls eyes*

"How may I help you, citizen?" *sighs*

"Its you! Hi!" *gets annoyed*

"How may I be of assistance, Champion?" "Oh for the love of the Nine, leave me alone!"

"Greetings!" *whap!* "uh-oh..."

 

"Greetings. What's new with you?"

"Heard any news from the other parts of Tamriel?"

"Nothing I want to talk about. Heard any news from the other provences?"

"Nothing I want to talk about."

"I've heard others say the same."

"Be seeing you!"

 

 

NPCs... they really do say some stupid things :P

[usernamesux]

How enemies always make it a priority to kill your mount, grraahhh! Honestly, is my horse their biggest problem?

 

Bandit 1 "Kill the horse, it is clearly the master as it forces the other to ride on top of it!"

 

Bandit 2 "Yes. it is bigger too. We should focus our attack on it!"

 

Bandit 1 "I bet it has good loot, let's get it!"

 

Bandit 2 "Attack! Kill the horse!"

 

 

 

What, are horses the bane of bandits and villians alike? Are they sworn enemies or something? In a fight I am just standing ther going "I'm here, get me instead! OVER HERE!.... oh fine, kill another of my mounts, I didn't want it anyway, it was brown!".

some times guards come to speak with me when they should attack :bunny:

I don't know, I actually think that makes sense. Kill someone's horse first, and they may not be able to get away from you....

 

Of course, horseflesh is valuable, so it would make more sense to steal it from you...

[duh13]

Yeah LOL, A fully armored guard swims twice as fast as you with one hand while the other hand is swinging a sword!

Since when did gravity get turned off?! (The armor should sink him!)

And Since when can anyone swim that fast with one hand?

 

"It's you! The hero of Kvatch! It's such an honor!"

"Look at the muscles on you!"

"You smell of death, been conjuring up dead things?"

"You look skilled in alteration, maybe you can teach me something."

"Your a sneaky loo..." "GRRAAAAH!!" [sHLING!]

"Help! Murder!"

[troyatistic]

"HELP! MURDER! I SAW IT THROUGH THREE WALLS WITH MY SUPER-EX-RAY-VISION AND NOW I MUST REPORT IT TO THE ALREADY PSYCHIC GUARDS SO THEY WILL ARREST THE KILLER!"

 

.... aaaargh. What, does the whole freaking empire have a) x-ray vision and b) some serious psychic abilities?

 

And the fact that your horse never seems to get tired even if you gallop through the whole of Cyrodiil, just stands still and doesn't move even a little bit (umm, wow, it SHAKES ITS HEAD :O) if dismounted, and knows automatically how to get back to its home-stable-place from anywhere in the world. This makes me wonder if the horses are magical and psychic as well as all the citizens and guards?

 

And I guess they first clone and then brainwash all the guards so they all a) look the same, b) sound the same, c) fight the exact same way and d) say the exact same lines over and over and over and over and over and OVER again.

 

I mean, I love the game to pieces, but I really would like some extra realism in TESV, please! ^_^ <3 How about more then one voice actor per race per gender, for a start?

Knight : (came to a shop)

 

Shop Keeper : Can I help you ?

 

Knight : I need a weapon ?

 

Shop Keeper : Here it is.

 

Knight : (touches the weapon)

 

Shop Keeper : THIEF !!! You won't get away with this.

 

Knight : What did I do ? I'm just touching.

 

Guard : Stop !!! You violated the law of "touching before paying".

 

Knight : I didn't deserved this, I'm just TOUCHING !!!

 

Guard : Then pay with your blood !!! (using his psychic powers to warn ALL the guards in Cyrodiil in a few seconds)

[duh13]

Knight picks up a blank crumpled piece of paper.

 

"Stop thief!"

 

Magically tells every guard in the whole freaking country!

 

"GRRAAAHH!" (Somehow a power attack to his face doesn't kill him.)

 

Then guards come in and use force powers to make me turn around and talk to them while I'm fighting!

One thing that makes me roll my eyes, and that I don't like period, are the psychic guards. How does killing a person with high responsibility without witness result in you getting a bounty? As long as there are none, you shouldn't get one. Even if there are witnesses, they should rather run away to a guard and report it there, rather than just yell. How can the guards at the other end of town hear that through closed doors and walls?

 

Another annoying part of it is when there are witnesses with high responsibility watching you kill someone, the guards still find out, even if it occurred in the middle of nowhere. Finally, how does word of your crimes reach all cities instantly in a world without instant communication?

 

Annoying... Makes my eyes roll more than tires do on a long trip. :whistling:
