An Elder Scrolls: Oblivion thead

yep - if you look in your ingredients for Nirnroot it will show the whole plant including the roots. Other ingredients only show a part of the whole.

leads me to agree with nikebee that its gone once picked.

 

[Nieldo]

Basicly, once you have picked it and it is still there in the ground it will eventually grow back, but if you pick it and it disapears then it wont grow back.

It's a cracking game. Bought it this morning, got it home & started installing it on my games PC @2pm. I haven't managed to play it yet as it crashed during install & there was no way to uninstall it then the pc just kept locking up if I tried to access the drive it's on. I can't even get in to safe mode to fiddle about now & it's been running a disk check for about 90mins. Money well spent

You guys seen the mods out or due out? Theres already 2 companion mods, better faces and eyes etc and today there is supposed to be a pet shop mod that adds a pet shop to the game hehe.

Also due in a few months is a mod that will add sections of morrowind to the map!

Its already a great game but with mods like these its just gonna get better and better!

 

[molinari]

I'm looking forward to the mods , especially a decent one (there are already some basic ones about) to sort out the silly npc leveling system .

Can anyone tell me if its possible *not* to threaten or boast to someone when I do that reputation mini-game?

Can I just joke and admire, then quit?

I mean, I feel like I'm going up to people and saying:

"Hey, thats a big sword you've got"
"I cleared a whole dugeon, on my own"
"Did you hear the one about the monk, the goblin and the loaf of bread?
"Do you want a punch in the face?"

Constantly, one after the other. Its just stupid. I'm going to moan yet again about the state of the console-ness of parts of this game. It winds me up... . Maybe I need a lie down.

 

[Rebel=UK=]

Hmm had a bit of a scare then when playing this, i was playing it for maybe an hour went in a door, and my graphics were all messed up, couldnt see a thing was just loads of long black and brown spikes, this happened to anyone else?

 

[G.O.A.T]

It's a bit of an RPG 'lite' really, not as hard core as I would have liked but I'm sure all the FPS whores will love it.

Yeah, the persuasion mini-game is a bit stupid really, makes no sense what-so-ever

The random conversations you overhear all the time annoy me as well...

"Hi there."
"I hear so-and-so is the best for light armour."
"Oh really?"
"Stop talking."
"Good bye."

 

[Datamonkey]

dont bother with the persuasion mini game, just bribe them, i get fed up with it.

Also lock picking, i cannot get the hang of it, annoys me.

 

[Vtec9k]

The lock picking is tricky untill you get the hang of it. Listen for the noise it makes, its a distictive sound when its time to click. sort of a two stage "tink-tink" noise

Best way to do it IMO. Is knock the lock tooth up once and on the second one it should click nicely if timed right.

Just won my first battle in the Arena woot!

Question shouldn't I be doing part of the main quest first and travelling straight to Kvatch?

I am just having to much fun

 

[Last Kronin]

I've found some for sale but they're bloomin' expensive! I assume that you can you make healing potions yourself. What are the required ingredients/tools??

DOnt no if this is a spolier but u need your alchemy tools and almost any type of meat, like venison, boar meat etc etc that makes a health potion that does like 4 hp for 14 sec or something like that or you can just eat the meat for a quick, but samll heal.

Just overwrite my main by mistake TIP: Don't use quicksave as your primary save slot...

Anyway looking to restart and I want to go down the hand to hand route. Thinking of perhaps some sort of Monk type character with stealth thrown in. Any ideas on what I should choose for my Primarys?

 

[Clearcut]

Just won my first fight after about 10 mins of battle. Flippin rat, hope there aren't many more of them.

Id say str, agi and endurance, preferably light armour and soem magic skills would be your best bet

 

[nickels]

[Psypher5]
