Taking another look at the E3 demo video

Meh. I just went over to the official site to go look at the demo and spotted an ad for... Morrowind and Oblivion soundtrack!?

Bought both games so... I kinda have it ... already.

 

Would anyone buy the soundtrack without having the game, and if you have the game why buy the soundtrack ... er egg first or issit the chicken. Demon gods of sales and marketing. I keep telling ya.

 

I have panted in a corner trying not inhale the green gas coming up from the floor, but no-one has invited me upstairs. Mostly they just want me to leave when I go upstairs.

 

What bothers me most is that the characters seem so much less relatable than in the AI demo, what with the three topics available to talk about. After I followed Ida Whatshername in the IC around to see if she climbs anything to jump down from, and realized that she doesn't even skip, I started playing Baldurs Gate.

well, i am sure there is a law against it, actually I'm positive, I would rather just buy it then go thru the hassle of recording it (if ur on the 360) and im sure, if I looked hard enuf, i would find music tracks on my computer somewhere, bur again too much hassle.

Seeing as how I bought the games there can be no law preventing me from listening to it on my pc/cd player. Its not selling like hotcakes on the streetcorner, I'm sure. Point is why would you buy it if you already, legally bought it (in game) and why would any who doesnt have the game buy it. Unless you are a librarian and its your job. :ohmy:

I had winamp scan for new music and didn't notice that it scanned my entire pc for music files, zero hassle.

 

Wanting to be a law-abiding member of society shouldn't include you having to pay for what you already have, thats exploitation. (Nice word for being suckered by said demons) ;D

I never accually saw the video, yet. But the npc's to tell you to get out of the house! They say stuff like:

 

Its time for you to leave, my friend.

 

This is your last warning! Leave now or ill call the guards!

 

That only happened in shops though. They do call the guards at the end. I was taking screenshots, and for an unknown reason at the time, guards came to arrest me for tresspassing.

 

That's only when you are trespassing. The woman in the video just told you when she went to sleep, you weren't trespassing at all.

 

Btw I just remember fast travelled to kvatch from inside the house ;D

 

Like switch said, i'm not going to get all excited about TES V either. Instead, I rather show threads to overhyping people in the official forums of before (Can't wait this is the best game ever) and after the oblivion release (the 582 things in Oblivion that disappoint me) threads.

 

*goes back to morrowind with Morrowind Enhanced and new textures, sounds and music mods installed*

 

Take a look at the Daggerfall museum to see stuff that was originally intended for Daggerfall and didn't make it. According to interviews I've seen about Morrowind (but don't have a reference for at the moment) it was intended that there would be actual politics in Vardenfall in which you would play a part once you became the head of a house. The fact that stuff was featured at E3 but didn't make it in the end most likely not intentionally misleading. Probably presented with an optimistic spin but probably not with a specific intent to deceive.

True. Compared to Morrowind (And certainly Daggerfall) Oblivion didn't leave out things they talked about that much.
