  1. With Oblivion being the first open world RPG I played I'm absolutely biased but I just can't make myself see it as the infected scab on the beautiful face of gaming that others do :thumbsup:

     

    I can however see all of it's glaring faults, I'm not making an argument for the game here but I must have enjoyed something in those 300 hours.

  2. You guys do realise that most online videos run at 30 fps or something - everything looks choppy in them... :thumbsup:

    I'm aware and to be honest it's what I'm banking on, people who've tried it say that it's smooth as butter so fingers crossed, also, considering the amount of languages they're covering I suppose I can live with ****ty facial anims.

  3. Ok, so now that I've decided to play TES: Oblivion at last, which mods should I install? I don't want that absurd "feature" called level scaling and I also want to keep other things as vanilla as possible.

     

    Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul is the only mod I'd call essential, it strips out a ton of the level scaling bull**** and adds lots of handplaced items and loot, it also makes lots of lesser but sensible changes like adding female guards and lockpick skill restrictions.

     

    Beyond that you'll probably just end up adding a few smaller mods as you go along, Natural Environments is a decent mod, it makes the forests thicker, adds birds and some random insect life, some music packs wouldn't hurt either, listening to the same five to ten tracks in a game as big as Oblivion is torture.

     

    Don't forget the Unofficial Oblivion Patch too.

  4. The thought of playing old games again is almost always more attractive than actually playing old games again.

     

    But nice device!

     

    Yeah but there's a cut off point, replaying most 8bit games ends in shattered dreams, a ton of 16bit games are still worth playing though, WinUAE or MAME on a large LCD TV with wireless pads is bliss :no:

  5. I was talking to a volcanologist the other day. He said that he'd seen a volcano shelter which had a big water tank inside. Steam cooked the poor souls who took shelter in it. :)

     

    Sounds like a Vault-Tec design :D
