The Elder Scrolls IV

[Bushwacker]

Hey has anyone played this game called Oblivion The Elder Scrolls IV? It sounds pretty cool and the gfx are supposed to be great. The recomended system requirments are pretty high.

I hear it's mind boggling. I wish my 6800gt hadent died on me :(

[Almuric]

There's a guy here at work that was talking about it a couple of days ago. He said the graphics were incredible and that I should get it just to see if my machine was worth a crap.

[DiabloVT]

well im about to invest in an xbox360 specifically for this game because ive heard so many great things.
9.3 on IGN.com, 9.6 on GameSpot.com, yet to be reviewed on GameSpy.com but you can just tell that this game is truely epic.
so long several hundred dollars:-( :D

[Almuric]

Wait....isnt this game available on PC?

[Darakian]

Yes it is :D

[DiabloVT]

my computer really isnt up to that sort of standard:( so its the xbox360 for me

[Bushwacker]

Well I went out and got the game, installed it, and just got to the point where you pick what sign you were born under or what ever. I picked the Wood Elf for my race, and the Warrior for what ever that born under stuff is. I'm sure you can tell I'm a total nOOb at the whole RPG thing. :D Anyway, so far the gfx are way cool and the game play is pretty awsome to. Wish I could hook up with someone here that knows what there doing so I could get some pointers.

[Darakian]

Well here's a tip. If your target can't see you then it is possible to trick him (or her) into attacking their allies when you attack them ;)

[Almuric]

This game is purely single player isnt it? I had heard there would be no online play.

[DiabloVT]

surely is. but i guess they released theres alot more MMORPG games that could do a fantasy online experiance better and they sticked with the single player. 4 years in development yakno:D

[Bushwacker]

Man someone else get this game. Its way cool.

[DiabloVT]

iiiiiiiiiiim workin on it!

[Almuric]

Hey man it was 59 gold coins well spent.:tup:

I read that the consol game has a few issues. Like some slow downs and such. Have you encountered any of this yet?

[DiabloVT]

yeah there are a few annoying things, nothing major though

some really random things like an audio 'hesitation' every 5 seconds during cut scenes, really destoryed the message theyre trying to convey. some of the cut scenes dont look right either, the graphics go abit haywire at certain times within them. doesnt make a huge difference because ive only seen two of them, but its very noticable.

and when youre riding your horse inbetween towns... a fair bit of choppyness, dont know how they didnt pick it up and try to fix it. theres also alot of loading times, but it takes less than a second and doesnt break up the game at all.

but these are only very small complaints, very very very good game:D

Oh and what did you find to be the best weapon and armor so far?

[MissChaos]

This game is AWESOME!! I saw the trailer for it and had it downloded before it was released here.... Talk about mind blowing! The graphics are STUNNING!
