Why did I not take the opportunity to claim the CE for £24.99 (the price of the standard edition)

?...

No, I wanted to know if there was a ending or is this WoW all over again?

Fop · 03-22-2006, 12:21 PM

Okay.

I don't get it.

Dasilva · 03-22-2006, 01:28 PM

Will Oblivions' main story line actually have a ending?

Its not a hard question.

Fop · 03-22-2006, 01:48 PM

I don't see why it needs asking.

Dasilva · 03-22-2006, 01:50 PM

So thats a yes or no?

insane_cobra · 03-22-2006, 02:09 PM

All TES games so far had proper endings to their main quests so I don't see why Oblivion would be any different, Of course, even when you're done with the main quest, you can keep playing and discovering new things.

Fop · 03-22-2006, 02:20 PM

I thought there was some kind of joke hidden there. If there's one thing all single player RPGs have it's an ending.

RLacey · 03-22-2006, 02:37 PM

I cracked. I ordered. That's £50 on games in about three days

.

Though it was on 22 games...

playing_games · 03-22-2006, 02:48 PM

I'm on the same boat with insane_cobra.

My poor PC has just a little old X300 and won't be able to handle the game. I will have to wait till I upgrade my PC to play Oblivion, which could be another year or more.

You're expecting an MMORPG to have an end?

Dasilva · 03-22-2006, 03:51 PM

I guess I was thinking of something else at the time, but yeah Im glad Oblivion will have many side quests.

I did a quest that required me to be put in jail. I attacked some random bum and was thrown in jail. After I slept in the Inn someone gave me a note with instructions for joining.

You've given me a lot to think about today.

jjacob · 03-23-2006, 04:13 PM

Got it yesterday

Played it for a bit, this game is awesome! It totally lives up to expectations, save perhaps for the "Radiant AI". The story and dialogue is pretty good so far, the graphics are amazing (even on my 6800GT) and the gameworld is so alive and huge

It does have a few minor downsides, such as the odd-behaving AI and such though. BTW, to anyone who's about ten hours in;

Spoiler:
I'm now getting Brother Martin back to Weynon Priory, and I'm obviously trying to stick to the main roads since less minotaurs and bandits and such attack there (wouldn't want to kill that Martin dude,.. can he even die?) but we can't travel by horse and it's taking a very long time on foot, is there any way to speed it up a bit?

Moron Lite · 03-23-2006, 11:06 PM

Go to the map and click on the place you'd like to travel to.

Spoiler:
Stay on your horse, though.

SakSquash · 03-23-2006, 11:50 PM

AI seems to work fine for me?

What jjacob meant is that the AI is not as smart as they promised.
They actulay had to tone it down for it was behaiving TOO well (killing people for food instead of buying it, attacking player in groups for his stuff, etc).
