Any difference between the GOTY and regular editions?

The GOTY pack includes the two expansions, Knights of the Nine and Shivering Isles, on a second disc that you install to the hard drive.

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

One last question: is the entire game first-person view or just the combat? One reason I don't play shooters much is b/c first-person view bothers me.

You can swap between 3rd and 1st person view at any time. The 3rd person view doesn't look as smooth though.

Good deal. Just picked the game up today and am looking forward to getting started tomorrow.

Anyone know if Bethesda has plans for a new Elder Scrolls game?

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

I'm sure they do. they released Fallout 3 not too long ago, I imagine they have already started working on their next project.

I've been dying to pick back up at Kvatch, but thanks to a ton of school work I haven't been able to play since last Tuesday. Ugh!

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

picking it back up this week for PC. The shoe less bum better not steal my horse and taunt me throughout the game this time.

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

I had it on PS3 for a while, but I just couldn't ever get over the framerate (steady, but 30FPS just doesn't do it for me in a game like that). I got it for the PC and the first time I got outside the sewer and saw it running at 60 FPS outside, my jaw hit the floor.

I still want to get back into it, but I'm so backlogged on games right now I might never catch up. And when the Show drops in March, well....

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

Absolutely love this game. I put so many hours in to it. I was in the Warriors guild (sorry it's been awhile, forgot the names) thieves guild, and the brotherhood (I think it was called.)

Love the whole thing about finding random caves and castles and exploring. I would sneak everywhere but still had the skills to fight while not being stealthy.

Great great game.

I'd just like to give a friendly suggestion to you cave divers. Kingscrest Cavern in the very northwest portion of the map. Fun cave.

Caves/mines creep me out. I love the change in atmosphere and just creeping around these caves hunting goblins.

lmao, I remember that, craziest bug I have ever heard of.

I've been playing this a bit on the computer lately, trying out different mods and the like. Can't wait to see this game with 6xAA, hdr lighting, and an upgraded texture pack when I get my new graphics card next week.

[WTF]

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

I still laugh aboutt that bum and my horse haunting me throughout the game. Should have never given the beggar a penny for some shoes... haha.

I can't wait to see what the game looks like on my PC period.

Just installed a couple more gigs of ram, so it should run pretty smoothly on my machine right now.

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

They really need to release DLC that has Kavach rebuilt. I remmeber them saying that it was the second biggest city(Behind Imperial) and had its own arena and guilds. It would be nice. Like the DLC doesn't kick in until after you beat the Final Campaign mission or until after you beat Shivering Isles. You come back from Shivering Isles and find that Kavach has been rebuilt and have a new place to explore.

Re: Official Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Discussion

I have a quick question. The game is really choppy and laggy when I play it and was wondering if that's just the game or because I'm running it off the HDD.
