I am really not that bothered about any upcoming game other than this and deus Ex. Everything i have seen so far about it looks great. Loved Morrowind, Oblivion was much better, if this improves on Oblivion then i will be very happy:)

I like the line about children appearing in Skyrim. that's something that all the nutjobs whinged about with Oblivion. "NO, Why are there no children in the game?":p ;)

It's gonna be Starcraft and BC2 until this comes out for me i think;)

Oh, and Battlefield 3, whenever that is due

Er, other way around I think you mean, Morrowind was much better than Oblivion :p

Wonder will it be like original Fallout or the censored Fallout.

I miss the days when you could break the game by killing the wrong people :(

Blame Bethesda for making you have to constantly escort retarded AI NPCs who just happened to be critical. Morrowind it was fine, then they decided to throw caution out the window and make you have escort AI with no self-preservation instinct so instead made them invincible... Fallout 3 they made it even worse.

My personal favourite was late game in Oblivion where they'd suddenly remove all NPCs critical protection during the 'defence of Bruma' thing with the Oblivion Gates. If you were a high level it was next to impossible to keep them alive. And of course if you were trying to play ranged or with AoEs you were more likely to kill your own people...

It does always feel a bit game breaking


Semi important person: "i have a horrifically dangerous quest for you with a high likely hood your intestines will be pulled out of your arse"


me: "Then why send my squishy mortal arse to do it instead of going yourself you immortal git"

There's actually quite a few of us that actually prefer Oblivion over Morrowind.

You can make Morrowind look almost as good as Oblivion but the control system for magic was way too complex for it's own good and the combat was terrible (ie just pure luck sometimes). Oblivion actually allowed you to enjoy the great gameplay. where as with Morrowind you have too work too damn hard to get used to it. Pity as the quests seemed very interesting
