CamonnaTong Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 My favorate is always the orcs even in oblivion but the argonoians are looking pretty good .. I'll start with an argonian and then a female orc .. I'm sure I'll try every race by the time I'm done with the game .. btw .. I've just now within the past month got to the point where I can no longer play oblivion .. it took me awhile but its lasted me years and I just cant find the charm in it anymore .. I know whats around every corner and what to expect from the system The same here, Skyrim is making it look like a piece of crap. :( That's Oblivion's problem. Morrowind had heaps of redeeming features, but Oblivion will be eclipsed by Skyrim in every way, the only reasons people will go back are:a) Because they are brokeb) Nostalgia Or the story and/or mods. I liked the story. But I know a lot didn't. Dark Brotherhood was the best faction and part of a game that made me feel like playing more and more. Other games that failed test of time didn't have that feature.(Oblivion still is fun for me. But for many it isn't anymore.) At least Oblivion did. But I'm sure that Skyrim will beat the Oblivion's Dark Brotherhood and such. Its funny because when people ask if they could get one thing in Skyrim that was Oblivion I'm sure you know what 95% what. The Dark Brotherhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Brotherhood. The story isn't bad, I'll admit it. But really, even now when I replay Oblivion, I'm not doing it for gameplay as such. I do it to relive the Oblivion glory days. I still laugh at M'aiq, despite having stopped him 7 billion times. I think TES owes as much to nostalgia as it does to the modding community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcrin Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Keep in mind none of us have played Skyrim yet. There are plenty of things I liked about Oblivion that aren't already confirmed to be in Skyrim, like Vampirism and an Arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard the Arena was confirmed by one of the demo reporters.. or.. some reliable or semi reliable source <_< heh .. wish I could remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a list on my PC somewhere... P.S. Yeah, I did the research after that post you made. Interesting stuff btw, thanks for opening my eyes to that side of it. Renewed my faith in Bethesda to know that it was not completely their fault that Oblivion wasn't as good as it could have been Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxeAlot Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 I think I'm going to play Imperial for my first character :thumbsup: Although once I open the character creator I may change my mind since they all look so bad ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
