How can one game be so comfy?

Oblivion just had a magical mix that I don't feel we will ever see again. I think the comfy level of Oblivion was purely by accident and not planned by Bethesda, it just had the right mix comfy visuals, relaxing music and a world that felt alive, mods just made everything 10X better as well.

It's weird that from conversations from citizens think that the fights are fake

Anonymous please

I would too if I was told that the arena gladiators actually died instead of being knocked out / submitting

I fucking love Oblivion's ambient music

I thought the rising pillar of light was the norm now.

JESUS CHRIST PEOPLE THE FILENAME IS AN INCEPTION JOKE

Are you ACTUALLY twelve?

>that triple argonian fight

yes
twelve inches deep in your mind

Literally the most unstable piece of shit i've ever played. The only fond memories i have of this are the retarded montages on youtube when youtube was still used for fun.

>Oblivion just had a magical mix that I don't feel we will ever see again.
IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR

Skyrim could have some comfy. But it was nowhere nears a comfy as oblivion.
Stalker could be comfy when you were at campfires with fellow slavs.
What are games that are comfy like oblivion?

>Oblivion is unstable as shit and runs like crap even on modern rigs due to being bound to single CPU core
>New Vegas is unstable as shit and crashes every 30 minutes

>skyrim is getting a remaster
Don't remind me.

>whispers to oblivion
one day, one day...

Thats how a feel about Fable.

I recently saw some screenshots of Kingdom Come, and it looks like it perfectly captures the old Oblivion aesthetic. minus the marble and magic I'm sure.

...

Morrowind is much more comfy. The graphics aren't as cartoony, you can claim ownership of practically any building and cozy it up with all the legendary artifacts you found during your travels without fear of them falling through the floor or the havok engine fucking shit up when you change zones.

Daggerfall is also quite comfy in an oldschool kind of way.

Fallout 3 is not stable at all, it was barely better than Oblivion if anything.
On a stability scale it's Morrowind > Skyrim > Fallout NV > Fallout 3 > Oblivion, haven't played Fallout 4 so can't say. So far Morrowind is the only one i've never crashed on outside of mod conflicts.

Yeah Fable 1 was amazingly comfy. All the fables were comfy.

did skyrim even have the blood that stayed on your sword? it never went away either, it would stay until you put your weapon away. and it wasn't even a static weapon state! the blood was different each time, and more swings meant getting more blood on it.

You know I thought "Hearts of Zion" was pretty comfy.
>Exploring Zion
>Meeting very few enemies,
>Having to jump around to keep exploring.
>That soft pitter patter of the rain.

Nowhere near as Comfy or Oblivion but still nice.

The Witcher 1 was pretty comfy as well in parts.
>Sheltering in taverns for the night as spooks come out
>Seeing the NPC's run for shelter from the rain.
>Entire part of act 4 youtube.com/watch?v=FUCZsRVzV3I

Yeah, but timers were shorter due to optimization issues. Same with arrows poking out of you.

You can edit those values in .ini file on PC.

morrowind used to shit out constantly on me as well as corrupt my saves, and I played it on xbox.

>morrowind used to shit out constantly on me as well as corrupt my saves, and I played it on xbox.
>I played it on xbox

Normally dodgy ports are a pc thing.

>they actually made this brutality of the justice system canon in skyrim with the random thieves in the cities that the guards would fill with arrows and cleave apart over a ceramic plate or something
>wouldn't even take the stolen goods off his corpse

It was ye olden days, where every platform gets fucked with a shitty port

They weren't so bad if you knew blocking and pressing use or space bar(I forget which) counted as your character "yielding".

No, only 1.
3 was utter sht, 2 had it's moments but lost most charm.
>world filled with heroes, you arent the only one
>monsters everywhere like a fairy-tale world
>ok so we killed off all the heroes and are now a less magical, industrial world that lacks charm.
All Fable 2 had going for it was Brightwood, Wraithmarsh and Oakfield. Wraithmarsh only because it was a fucked up Oakvale with distorted music from Fable. The arena in 2 was shit, and the music was a downgrade. The spire could have been goat, but they ruined it.

Thats just Bethesda being shit.

He's talking about the radiant events where a theif gets spawned and the guards hunt down & kill him

funny, my 360 skyrim character bugged and had an arrow sticking right out of his fucking face for 300 hours. like, shot in the back of the head, had an arrow poking out his nose. I called him Vern Arrowhead. Disappeared when I moved him to PC.

Really, I thought bowerstone market was pretty nice and comfy. It felt like a really nice organic town. With a central square then arteries flowing off from it and dividing up into housing blocks. The architecture was very fable as well. They kept that fairytale feel.

I also really like the first big playable area of fable 3. Going from mountains to snow is pretty nice. Brightwall was a really nice town as well. The town felt messy but in a very natural way, like it had built up over time.

youtube.com/watch?v=dWRTmYsrpaQ
Also this song is fable as fuck.

2 was far better than 1 and 3 for me, the ambience of the city was just perfect, and the story was oddball enough to counter the stiff formulaic Britishness of the writing, unlike with the first and last games.

I know, I just meant players actually had a way to stop the guards from straight up killing their pc's.

Bowerstone didnt have the atmosphere I liked, no fantasy. Noble district was also shit, just rich people wandering around homeless.

That track sounds a lot like older stuff. Oakvale.
Still I dont remember much of Fable 3, what I do remember wasnt great. The sanctuary just had old music but slower.
I would wish someone buys the IP from MS, but no one can fix it now.
>Fable 3 could have just went full Old Kingdom, or had everything set back with Theresa and her magical wish granting tower.
>Just Fable 2 but worse.

TES 6 focused on gassing the Thalmor when?

It's possible that entire arc has been skipped. If the game takes places hundreds of years after the thalmor.

Though I doubt it with how big thalmor and important the thalmor were in test 5.

youtube.com/watch?v=LPysOFeSg8E
God damn these songs are just so chill.
>feel like I'm on a boat slowly drifting down a stream to the local pub to see my friends.

TES VI will be about pirates who dindunothin in Hammerfell & singing swords

There's no way in hell the arc will be skipped, it's to important and probably leading to another all out war. I'm guessing the time-span between V & VI will be relatively short for a TES game.

>singing swords
Seems too complex for Bethesda to pull off.

I remember in oblivion's time a lot of people thought the next game was going to be set in the summer set isles. A few correctly guessed it would take place in Skyrim but no one knew it would be about alduin.

Hell the only hints Alduin were in a book found in morrowind.

So yeah no idea what hook they will use.

They will just re-use dragonshouts and call them "Singing swords" instead.

I like ESO

Over the line.

oh boy looks like I"m going to install oblivion again.

My friends played this for about 2 months.

They said it wasn't bad, but it wasn't especially great either. They all just suddenly stopped logging in one day because all 4 of them just suddenly lost interest.

Seems to be what I constantly hear about it.

>install Oblivion
>install mods
>go through fixing everything and installing shit properly
>after many tedious hours of applying fixes and patches. start the game
>random crashes
>lose all interest immediately

Same shit with Skyrim, except Skyrim has tools that ease the pain of modding. Kind of can't wait for the remaster. Not having my game shit itself under the weight of around 200+ mods will be great.

...

>TES VI will be about pirates who dindunothin in Hammerfell & singing swords
Glad I'm not a Redguardfag, I know Bethesda will rape lore and deliver disappointment to anyone who knows about lore. I just hope Bethesda dies before High Rock is ruined, and it becomes canon that the capital is 20 or so buildings.
The real winners are the Akavirifags, safe on another continent.

I am still disappointed with Cyrodil and Skyrim. No more, please. Go fuck over the orks if you want more victims.

Oblivion and Morrowind are the only games where general ambient tracks put very specific images in my mind.

>Entering Sadrith Mora from boat on a foggy morning

Try fewer mods?

I mean being serious you don't need that many mods to improve oblivion.
Getting shit like the quick start mods is a must though. I can play oblivion on a shitty crap top and I hardly ever get crashes.
>apart from when exiting the game.

>since 2012
I won't let a goyim this good critique my taste in vidya

sadly this has been my experience as well. the world they've made is absolutely beautiful and really captures a lot of cool stuff from the lore, but the nitty gritty of the quests is just... eh. doesn't help that there's even less voice actors than the single player games, though last time I logged in there seemed to be a bit more variety. I'd say the sameyness of the people you have to listen to was even my biggest gripe, so it might not be so bad now.

Remasters always look worse.
This wont be better for us, and I'm sure modders will just stick to basic Skyrim.

I played it, it's okay if you like Skyrim, but generic MMO combat and skills kinda ruin it. The game also has really great environments, though sadly same can't be said about armors and creatures.

They could have went anywhere after Oblivion, the main storyline was a done-deal.

With skyrim there was clearly a huge unfinished arc with the empire VS Thalmor, they made too much of it to just let it drop.

I'm guessing Hammerfell for TES VI because:-

>lots of references to it in skyrim... possibly introducing it to the casual player base
>shout system can be carried over via the redguards sword techniques without the player having to be a dragonborn
>it's the only large human region left to be covered as a whole (high rock is quite small)
>in an interesting position story wise, outside the empire, internal power struggles, kicked out the Thalmor almost entirely by themselves
>i don't think we will see the summer set isles until AFTER this arch is delt with, so ruling that region out

youtube.com/watch?v=wADy0zZkQMM

>Comfy fantasy music is somehow completely appropriate for oriental dark elf land and just works.

You are the best morrowind.

>I'm sure modders will just stick to basic Skyrim
They won't because vanilla Skyrim's biggest limitation is being a 32bit application.

at least there's mods for skyrim that expanded the settlements quite a bit. Need a beefy PC though.

ESO has the best look for the races.

It's not great but even if you treat it as singleplayer game the gameplay is much better and harder than what Skyrim had.
Also, this game is only getting better and better, though lately devs started showing some signs of jewing that may lead to the game becoming shit again, some quests and places are fucking great too (shame many times quests are also casualized beacuse of "We want the Skyrim audience" so 90% of quests just marks you everything on the map)

every damn year

But wont this mean reworking mods?
It's hard enough running lots of mods together on vanilla.

I think Todd promised that old mods will still work for remaster.
And I believe that because FO4 engine is the same shit as Creation or Gamebryo version they used since Morrowind.

Honestly I kinda want to try this, but I'm not sure if it would run on my toaster, it's also 80 fucking gb but I can forgive that since the game world is apparently huge
Does it have cool shit from the provinces or is it like, all northern provinces are literally skyrim etc?

>there are people that think the dragonborn won't get put on a bus to apocrypha next game
lmao

the beast races are a bit meh, specifically the argonians having a flat face so they can fit in a humanoid helmet. having khajiit mounts and pets of different subtypes totally makes up for it though

not even skyrim is literally skyrim, it has a fair amount of diversity within each province. it's kind of like how wow's zone system breaks places up by biome rather than by political borders, except there aren't obvious walls between most places. the only exception is the dunmer areas because they went full fucking TRUMP 2016 and walled off all their borders.

No. Only thing (supposedly) being changed about Skyrim Remaster is that theres going to be an upgrade to 64bit, and the game will adopt the same atmospheric shaders and graphical enhancements that FO4 had.

If that's true, then the only things that will have to be fixed are mods like SKSE, because of new executables. But everything else script-wise should be largely untouched.

Considering modding is the biggest seller of TES games, I'd hope that they understand that being able to carry mods over from standard to the remaster is a huge deal.

>fallout 3
>zero effort generic evil nazi badguys

>skyrim
>zero effort generic evil nazi badguys

simbly ebic

Evil Nazi badguys are cool though.

I agree, but I attribute it almost entirely to the music. Jeremy Soule was so on-point with this one. I think the classical orchestral style really helped, too. String instruments are maximum comfy.

Peace of Akatosh - youtube.com/watch?v=yKLfvt6CZCY

Oblivion OST - 26 tracks, love over half of them
Skyrim OST - 52 tracks, can only name like 4. Which are the good ones.

Morrowind's was great too, just less comfy

>able to join the evil nazi badguys
>they're not so bad after all and have a deep culture and long history
>the alternative is almost as bad and not to mention literally tried to behead you
I'll give Skyrim a pass on this one, the factions had some depth to them and were not just scrappy good guy rebels versus the third reich.

>I mean being serious you don't need that many mods to improve oblivion.
What the fuck are you talking about? You need dozens minimum.

>Skyrim's biggest limitation is being a 32bit application.
No it wasn't. That barely effected anything, it's almost purely a texture/model limitation.

And ENB will be botched.

The Thalmor are the Nazi badguys, m8. Not the Stormcloaks/Empire.

RADIANT
AI

don't forget that the best tracks on Skyrim's OST were literally just Morrowind tracks recycled after they realized with Oblivion that not everything they touched turned to gold, and there was something to be said for cashing in on Morrowind's cult popularity.

Skyrim OST was a major disappointment for me. It makes the world feel cold and hostile, which I guess was the direction, but I just don't enjoy listening to it in-game or outside of it. The only music track I enjoyed was City Gates, I think, one that plays in Whiterun and is pretty comfy and welcoming.

It sounds like the guy went and got like 50 mods or some shit without really thinking it through. I mean oblivion needs mods but you should install them at slow pace so you don't fuck it up.

ah, well that's something. The Thalmor though, existed well before Skyrim, and the Altmer religious motivation to literally end the world is well documented, I think they're even a minor player in ESO, since the original Thalmor were a small sect of Altmer society in 1E.

And at the very least they didn't make the nazi faction the fucking white humans.

>That barely effected anything, it's almost purely a texture/model limitation.
And that's exactly what I meant, since we are talking about modding.

The bigger limitations would be the limited animation modding which even lead to worldspace limitations.

Holy shit this game is actually the GOAT MMO barring 2007-era Ruenscape.

the combat isn't really anything like the single player games though

that isn't a bad thing

Oh really? It just feels like the kind of floaty combat I've seen in Skyrim. Still, it's better than most MMOs purely for the aspect of being action combat instead of tab-targeting, and I really like how you can mix classes up by taking any kind of armour or weaponry. I was running a tanky Orc Sorcerer in heavy armour with hand weapon and shield and I used my Daedric summons to help me tank, my magic in general to buff myself up and shit, it was great.

it's sheathing your sword that counts as yielding

no shit nigger
the only time the previous PC showed up in the sequel is CoC as Sheo and he's just a sidequest guy

>It just feels like the kind of floaty combat I've seen in Skyrim.
ESO is a mix of Skyrim's combat with usual MMO lock-on bullshit, sadly.

Oblivion was my first TES game and it's still my favorite.

I liked exploring Oblivion gates and I miss that in Morrowind and Skyrim.

I HONOR MY LORD
BY DESTROYING YOU
NNNNEEEEEEYYYAAAAAAAAUUUUUUURRRRGGGGHHHHHHH

they definitely modeled a lot off Skyrim, particularly the UI, but they've improved a lot. naturally an MMO relies a lot more on magic abilities, so they're a lot more fluid and usable, not to mention a lot more mixed in with everything. in the single player games, magic is it's own thing that relies on it's own stats. as a warrior you don't just have magic shit you can do.
Imagine if spells weren't effectively hitscan stuff that connected when you clicked and would arc to catch moving targets, but just went in a straight line, and the spells moved about as third as fast as they are. Also, the hitbox is just the size of the player, rather than having the area soft lock. All magic is like that in the core games.

I'm impressed they made first person as viable as they did in ESO, that's what really makes it feel elder scrollsy, though of course for anything like pvp it's a huge disadvantage.

>every other game
>daedric weapons are alien and beautiful works of art in dark material

>Blowing up an oblivion gate tower for the first time
>Getting cool sigil stones to upgrade your weapons and shit with.

To be fair, these weapons are from the realm of Mehrunes dagon, the Lord of destruction. His entire realm is a geological nightmare.

The weapons and amour on his dremora are meant to reflect that.

I forgot to add, you are right in that they still look crap though.

>killing a dragon in Skyrim
>you get a soul to spend on shouts, 90% of which are not fun and generally useless
But hey, at least you can 1HK any dragon in the game thanks to how broken Smithing is. Sure beats spending 5 minutes rushing through Oblivion gates while ignoring all enemies.

>That fucking clipping

her own tattoo is clipping?

That is really not what I was planning to upload.

>implying sigil stones were any more usefull
I had a dozen of them just sitting on my mantle at home, or more accurately, rolling randomly around the fucking house as they pleased since they chose to ignore Nirn's rules of physics and gravity.

90% of sigil stones offered shitty upgrades though. They only started getting good when your character was at a higher level.
>"Very dim and about to run out of battery sigil stone" 1 fire damage on weapon. 5% fire shield on clothing.

uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Sigil_Stone

What? Sigil stones granted amazing effects and bonuses, some of which made you actually OP.

I reinstall Morrowind with mods yearly.

Shits bretty tight.

>arena railment looks like a fucking dress
>imperial armor looks like meme spartans instead of Romans

i hate oblivion's designs

This, Witcher 1 was comfy was fuck when you weren't in the swamps, act 4 was top comfy.

Witcher 1 was completely unplayable fucking mess with out gamefags walkthrough detailing EVERYTHING
The only things that ware comfy entire game ware you being able to wear like 5 fucking swords and day and night cycle with rain

Why are arenas always so fucking fun in vidya?

The elder scrolls series is just like Metallica.
Kill Em All is ARENA

Ride The Lighting is DAGGERFALL

Master Of Puppets is MORROWIND

...And Justice For All is OBLIVION (good game but lost some of the magic of MORROWIND just like the bass in AJFA)

The Black Album is obviously skyrim, the band's best selling album and made for non metallica fans just like Skyrim was made for non TES fans. (They both sold 20 million copies each)

THE NEXT TES IS GOING TO BE SH*T TIER JUST LIKE LOAD BY METALLICA WAS

Oblivion had cool shit like NPC's literally trying to steal each other's food and shit if they wanted to eat but they didn't have any. Also stuff like poisoned apples was hilarious. Why did they have to remove that in Skyrim.

you can hardly get any shittier than skyrim

I agree

>SH*T

>>>/reddit/

I honestly think it looks better that way

Are you retarded?

Skyrim was alright if you had a good couple mods, if you don't though it's bland as fuck.

>Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim are relatively stable and playable
hahahahahaahahahaha!

that's shit logic, if it's alright with mods, it's the mods that are alright, not skyrim.

oblivionfags can delude themselves all they want, the same applies to them and their potato styrofoam bashing simulator.

oblivion is amazing with mods

skyrim is just so fucking dull that modding it really does feel like polishing a turd

fallout 3 is barely playable on modern machines and fallout 4 is optimized by literal monkeys

there are nowhere near enough mods that fill up Oblivion's disgusting lack of items, animations and variety(which hurt it specially from how godawful the designs are) or make up for the hardcoded limitations to the game. The combat mods that are there suck shit with only token changes to the stats rather than making the AI better or add more attacks and effects.

what's more, it's 80% edgy anime mods in oblivion's mod pages, nothing but endless ugly trash with interesting but unfinished stuff dotted in between.

>Not leaving him in a store in your favorite city forcing it to always stay open even at night

Does it still have that stupid NO STEPPING IN ENEMY FACTION TERRITORY restriction?

they got rid of that a long time ago, you can play through all three now.

Oh sweet, I might check it out then.

The only cool parts about Oblivion are the Dark Brotherhood and all of The Shivering Isles.

>All the bugs in Elder Scrolls games are because it's a dream
I like this explanation

Same thing happened to me except Skyrim works perfectly with over 100 mods and an ENB running while Oblivion was getting sub 20 fps with about 30 mods going.

Oblivion is particularly unstable, this is known.
Not only is in the weird spot in which it's not optimized for modern processors but it can still be quite taxing computationally with LOD mods, open cities and shaders, but it seems to be just plain worse programmed, which is why you need to be much more careful when installing mods unless you want to have a CTD every hour.

Consoles.

Sometimes I pity the musicians that spend so much effort into composing good music only to be wasted by Todd's business models.

in morrowind everyone walks like they have broom stuck up their ass and there is virtually no meaningful dialog

skyrim fucking bugs out once you get to higher levels

Oblivion was on console though, shitposter.

It's also the reason why the final product didn't match the demo

>eyelids clipping through brow
>skin like an actual potato
>shitslugs for eyebrows
people need to stop recommending Oblivion Character Overhaul 2 desu senpai

>don't forget that the best tracks on Skyrim's OST were literally just Morrowind tracks recycled
They did that just for Dragonborn. And then there's the track that was also reused in Oblivion, called The Jerall Mountains or something, but even that was re-orchestrated and re-recorded (Oblivion's was not).

I don't think Skyrim is great and the soundtrack is the worst of the three but this meme needs to end. Almost all of it was original score. Just because Jeremy Soule's work sounds samey doesn't mean otherwise.

It's DLC character that wasn't fully affected by overhaul. He's using overhaul's morphs, but vanilla mesh, that's why he looks so disfigured. Generally OCO is pretty great.

I want Elsweyr.
High as balls cats fighting the Thalmor.

Why was oblivion so good? Why was skyshit so shit? Will next TES save us or fail us?

Half of Elsweyr is a part of the Aldmeri Dominion

>Why was oblivion so good?
It was your first TES game

ALL of elsweyr is part of the dominion. Elsweyr was divided back into its two ancient kingdoms, but both are under Dominion rule.

Killing elves is reason enough, but I'll take any justification I can.

Depends. But I hope mixed reception of Fallout 4 showed them that people, even Beth fans, don't want movie with borderlands loot from these games.

Morrowind was. And it was better.
I reffered to webm and said oblivion was good. Dont worry lad.

Except, your raiment wasn't equipped. God you suck.

>yfw you lived long enough to see da white mayn's rule end

seeing how Skyrim was highly successful, expect more an even more broken game, with more feauters butchered, 0 roleplay, and devs expecting free modders to fix everything

You know that old Cred Forums does not exist anymore when people are actually nostalgic about Oblivion.

>finish the game and expansion without ever using them

It's not my guide sperglord and if you know what you're doing you can use alternatives like it says.

Also what's wrong with your taste?:
OMOBS is obviously for the new non-OOO items added by other mods
Dynamic Map is OBJECTIVELY the best map mod
Why not use Kvatch Rebuilt?
And really textured normal maps is clearly for the vanilla armor/weapon sets+stuff that Qarl's doesn't cover/do as well as RTNM.

I loved it and was nostalgic about it ever since it came out. You can have nostalgia for something that happened last week too.
"Muh newfags disagree with me REEE GET OUT" autists like you are pathetic.

>Dynamic Map is OBJECTIVELY the best map mod
There are plenty of mods it doesn't account for meaning it fails in what it sets out to do. Which would bould be okay if it wasn't hideous.

Kvatch Rebuilt is unfinished and never will be finished

RTNM is chunky oatmeal: the textures

that's shit logic, if it's alright with mods, it's the mods that are alright, not skyrim.

morrowindfags can delude themselves all they want, the same applies to them and their dice rolling simulator.

Fucking faggot OP.

I haven't played vidya in months but now I'll have to spend the whole weekend stetting up mods and autistically developing a character to replay Oblivion again.

God, they really were the masters of shitty DLC jewry, the mainstream is only just catching up to how stingy they were. but getting back to my point that shit wasn't visible from that distance on the 360 version, at least not for me. I always assumed it was nestled deep in the Jeralls out of sight.

It was blocking and talking to them first

They said the same about Oblivion. Just you fucking wait.

>Voiced protagonist
>Conversation wheel
>Linear design
>Two factions- good guys and evil guys

They'll fuck it up further, don't you worry about that.

Reminder to go play Enderal if you haven't already. It can be a little rough around the edges but is better than Skyrim in the areas that matter most imo.

After Dragonborn I though "you know, maybe they deserve one more chance." Then they released Fallout 4 and well I'm just glad I have ESO for when I get that Tamriel itch.

I will never understand the appeal. As a mod maybe the scope is impressive, but in the end it's just a "who cares" OC story and world made in a super shitty engine. People play Skyrim in spite of the awful gameplay and engine, not because of it.

Todd has already said that voiced protag was a mistake, and the conversation wheel was a byproduct of the voiced protag, making them have to record less lines.
Linear design will be just like Skyrim, and good vs. evil is just like Skyrim, Oblivion, and Morrowind.

Onnnly the strange destiny of Uriel Septim could've brought you to me carrying the amulet of...kings.

MAZKAN

How can millions of people can have such shit taste? I will understand.

never*

>it's just a "who cares" OC story and world

Have you played it? The story is more interesting than anything in any of the actual ES games. Not only that but despite being written by one guy who speaks English as a second language, the writing is better too. Even the voice acting is better, barring a few cases where it's pretty shitty.

This is an addition to being a huge open world full of interesting places to explore and some pretty cool sidequests. If you've been sitting there playing the same shit over and over in the main games and are wanting some new content there is no reason not to check it out.

I liked the masks in morrowind. That one looks like a shitty face of god.

>having to get past a loading screen just to distribute skills

...

Yeah it's slightly annoying, but you do it once per level and if you're playing an ES game you should be used to loading screens by now.

I wish, fuck Tamriel
Like Talos came from Atmora and made an Empire we need a Demigod from Akavir to kick first the Tsaesci asses there, then crossing the ocean to invade Tamriel once again to kick Altmer butts

I want to play Oblivion again for the first time in years. What's the minimum mods I should get?

>Talos came from Atmora
lmao what

The same will happen with Skyrim. We've already got a glimpse of the next ES game through FO4. Expect as little dialog as FO4 and just as much focus on bullshit radiant quests.

>Oh thank god you're alive. Quick, the Imperial Legion needs your help!
>you are now god of the imperial legion
>GO DO THESE PEON QUESTS

ugh gamebryo engine. Just fucking die already.

5 star quality post

The Nerevarine disapeared after sailing for Akavir at the end of third era, would be nice to know what happened to him/her

>implying the Empire will exist by the time TES6 begins
The Thalmor will rule the world.

I got u senpai

May be slightly outdated since this was made fuck knows when.

Does anyone know if I can still get a hold of all the pieces for the FCOM overhaul? TESRenewal doesn't let me create an account, so no luck there.

Have you missed not only the books but also some dialogues in Skyrim?
Tiber Septim aka Talos/Ysmir was born in Atmora

Isn't that what just they say about our world and Azathoth?

Talos has as many birthplaces as he has souls.
Hjalti, for example, was born in Alcaire.

i think theres a torrent for it

Nigger Talos wasn't only Ysmir, that's what the nords want to believe.
Ysmir was just a fag that got cucked for his whole life until he got backstabbed-

Largely because it had cities consisting of more than 4 NPCs, decent questlines with bonus objectives, a better dungeon system than Skyrim, Oblivion Gates being bigger, longer, and more challenging than fighting a random dragon, and the most important aspect:

2005-2006 Jeremy Soule was his strongest, most prolific and moving phase. He made music that was memorable and yet still faded into the background nicely. Listen to his newest stuff; it's low key, low intensity, unmemorable background droning

I've played it, and it just feels like more Skyrim imo. Yeah, bits are different but after a couple of hours it just feels like Skyrim again, with that stupid fucking engine.

>listing dungeons and oblivion gates as good points
Oblivion has quests and music.
That's literally the only good things of it, if you think any other part of the game is above average or average you're just wrong.

Witcher 1 was so fucking comfy

Thanks m80. Can't wait to not play these when I'm finally done modding the damn thing and lose interest

>there are people who umironically play as a Mer.
Disgusting

Human races are shit desu
>redguards are niggers
>imperials are boring
>nords are retards
Bretons are ok but they're half mer anyway.

At higher levels, and that's only if the rng decided to give you one that didn't fucking suck.

>bretons are hypocritical mongrels
ftfy

Seeing how they have the most advanced civilization of all human races except imperials I'd say being a man-mer mongrel works pretty well.

Truly, there is no higher point in civilization than to rape goat heads.

>paintbrush stairs
Best glitch

>I've only played Skyrim: the post
Embarassing senpai.

Nice projection, fag.

they don't
Regduards are more advanced

Underrated

>Half Nord
I think the Nord part makes them retarded.

Yeah until they chimped their whole continent and forgot all their technology and knowledge to become niggers.

Jeremy Soule was GOD in 2005-2006

Look at Guild Wars. Some of the most GOAT music in a video game. Jeremy Soule is the truth.

>start a rebellion against the dragons
>get raped
>become Mora's bitch
Truly a mastermind.

>Thinking he can outsmart the literal embodyment of knowledge
ayy

He did get pretty far. Further than anyone else could have. Only thing stopping him was the player.
Also, Ahzidal.

>r-reeee only my joke is funny guys >:(!

I've been playing Oblivion again recently, even with patches and stabilizer mods this piece of shit still crashes at least once an hour
I'm having fun but I'm getting fed up

One crash per hour seems pretty okay.

white guys are stupid and niggers are superior in this game.

Suspension of disbelief shattered.

Oblivion will forever be one of my favorite games of all times but

ARE YOU THE HERO OF KVATCH?

That's weird. I was just looking for a game I could be a gladiator in, and started playing the Oblivion Arena quests.

I'm taking a break now and I open Cred Forums to see this thread at the top. It's a little strange.

Light Raiment>Heavy Raiment

that's just life in Cyrodiil

...

Is that a canon map? I might have to add to: If it is, is there another image of that without the paper crinkle effect?

You must suck at installing mods

There will never be another good comfy rpg made after 2010. The modern world is too jaded and ruined and we can never recapture the magic of the 00's and 90's.

i very horny when oblivion

Oblivion is fun because it's a very ambitious game made by lazy incompetent people.
It also gives you much more freedom than the game can handle.

Kingdoms of Amalur was pretty comfy.

>KoA
>comfy
Shit gets said all the time about it, but it truly is a single player MMO, and it's depressing. Worst of all the camera is fucked up, so bad that alone made me quit, even the mod fix doesn't do much for it.

10/10

>2012

Haha no way. Not magical and comfy enough like 2003 or 1997.
