What went wrong?
Only 2.77% of people have beaten Oblivion Remastered
Thats odd. Oblivion probably has the shortest main story from any of the Elder Scrolls games.
plus the fact cheats disable cheavos
beating the oblivion main quest requires you to go through MULTIPLE oblivion gates which are extremely repetitive and boring
im 30 hours in and im already bored ngl like
TES main quests
Yet it's the one TES game which main quest I've played the least. I think I've made it into the Blades temple like once and never much past that.
you only have to do like 4 or 5 to finish the story
playing the remaster forced me to admit that vanilla skyrim is unironically better than vanilla oblivion. I got bored almost immediately.
the leveling system is so bad that it ruins the entire experience and there's not much interesting in the game besides some of the quests.
i got bored before i even hit shivering isles. just doesnt hit like skyrim.
It was never a good game.
I said that when it came out the first time, too, and I'm still right.
I will never be wrong about Bethesda.
It was never a good game.
Can't wait for people to say with about Morrowind too when it gets a remaster.
it's literally a streamer game
its only purpose is to give streamers about 10-20 hours of content (overract to bugs and glitches in front of a camera)
sure, the skyrim system is way better. go ahead and forge more than a hundred daggers at whiterun to powerlevel early.
I've never once completed the main story in a Beth game, except new Vegas what a coincidence
Well oblivion indeed is a shit fucking game.
change FOV in the console
uh oh cheater detected achievements disabled bitch
3
Kvatch, Bruma, Big
I'm talking about the fully leveled loot & encounters in Oblivion. there's never any point to dungeon-diving because all the loot in a dungeon is going to be leveled generic garbage that you already have, and there's no point in doing quests because as soon as you gain a few levels the quest rewards become uselessly underpowered
I bought it to fuck around
FPBP
skyrim poors bought it but can't run it
/thread
This year was the first time I've actually beaten the 2006 version.
Most tes players play on console.
the skyrim system is way better
true
Genuinely every other questline in the game is better. People are probably just doing those quests instead.
What’s the dark brotherhood and thieves guild completion rate?
I’d consider those beating the game too since they’re way better than the main quest.
I uninstalled the remaster after 10 hours. The game's dogshit skyrim is much better
nothing, I have 80 hours in it and haven't finished the main quest. back in the original release it took me over a year to get around to finishing the main quest. it took me two years to finish skyrim's main quest
fuck these main quests
You retarded or smthn?
Explain why shitrim is "better".
No one plays these games to do the shit main quests.
Are you?
Better graphics
Better combat
Better map
Better exploration
Better main quest
Better leveling system
Shouts
Better DLC's
Better voice acting
Better music
That's consistent with most games.
I have like 200 hours in it and I have yet to do the main quests becuase it's boring dog shit that I don't need to play again in the remaster. Oblivion is best when you just side quests as you walk around, with the ocassional local guild quest thrown in.
7.9% I have every achievement and all of the major guilds accept the arena have sub 10% completion.
Nobody have done anything.
I would bet most of them are waiting for the sex mods to update.
That doesn't work anymore
the leveling system's role in determining moment-to-moment gameplay is toned down
that's literally it. that's all you need to be better than oblivion
the CORE of any dungeon-delving RPG experience is going into tombs for cool shit. in Oblivion, this experience is rendered completely impotent because you're never going to find shit any better than the shit you already have
in Skyrim, there are some decent items, Word-Walls, unleveled bosses, and other things that can make dungeon-delving feel more like an authentic adventure and less like a theme park
get to final gate
just run past hueg spinny machine thing
spam jump my way up the rock wall
steamroll chudras
gg no re
Elder Scrolls games are better as sandboxes to make your own adventure instead of the main quest. Also because Oblivion isn't that gripping to me. Skyrim is fine but that's because it's the only way to get Dragons to spawn (at least in my experience)
did all the guilds
decide to do shivering isles before finishing main questline and 100%
get bored and uninstall
Better combat
Stopped reading there.
My anecdote is I remember Oblivion's ending battle leadup feeling VERY final. I wouldn't fault new players for wanting to play 100 more hours before starting the Bruma gate siege thing.
Compared to Skyrim, where I remember you just go to some generic ruins, fight a dozen guys, then take a teleport to Solstheim.
I kind of feel the opposite. Not that I especially like Oblivions intense level scaling, but the fact that you can't just stumble your way onto end-game items is one of the main reasons I kept doing dungeons and quests. In Skyrim(and Morrowind for that matter) you only have to do a single quest and that one weapon reward can last you the entire game. It's especially annoying during replays because then you have to start gimping yourself and avoid certain quests and dungeons in order to not become too overpowered too fast.
my mainq bugged at miscarcand and won't continue, I finished 3 guilds so far however
I always do the main quest last, after I've become Madgod and maxed myself out with overpowered spells so I can 1v1 Dagon, daedric prince to daedric prince.
Everyone who was going to beat the main quest already beat it nearly 20 years ago.
Everyone playing now only downloads the game to slap a couple hundred mods on it and make their elf waifu with comically huge tits.
nobody plays oblivion for the main story.
It's the side quests people sink into and enjoy then drop it before bothering with oblivion gates.
The remake isnt bad, its the original game which is super boring
Writing is horrible, dungeon design would had been better if it were AI generated, combat is improved but still clunky and braindead, open world map is sterile... Nostalgia alone cant work miracles
Which will only screw you over in a long run cause now every shithead is a max level damage sponge and you? fucking smithing 100 smurf.
when
It won't, retard.
No voiced dialogue for every NPC
No map markers
No teleport
Having to READ TEXT to Israel understand and find objectives
Can't run that through a Pajeet AI upscaler.
The side quests are better than the main shit story
gimped radiant ai to the point where the feature was stripped entirely almost, even basic npc interactions dont work anymore as instead of following their schedules they'll just stand there staring off into space.
nobody but me ever complains about this and every time I mention it some tech illiterate retard tries to claim it is irrelevant
Yeah nah, it sucked fucking ass and the original is better. Literally even the most of npc interactions like two characters talking about gossip and walking away is broken, they just stand there staring at each other indefinitely like lifeless dolls.
haven't even delivered the amulet yet
I just don't care about the msq. I already experienced the "daedric prince tries to invade Nirn" plot multiple times in ESO anyway
Nah, it was a hype wave of people buying new big thing and playing/streaming it for anywhere from 2 days up to 2 weeks, then they drop it and move to something else. Maybe back to REPO or something.
gimped radiant ai
didn't happen
The game has been out for a couple of weeks, what autistic retard speedruns the main quest as the first thing they do?
In my case I got out of the tutorial sewer, did the first dungeon, went "Yep that sure is some Oblivion" and uninstalled
im playing it slowly, probably put like 20 hours in but barely touched the main story, currently doing my 2nd oblivion gate
How many people have whatever the first mandatory achievement is?
Is there an obvious main quest Achievement where everyone drops off, or is it a steady dropoff?
It starts off fun but after a while it just isn't interesting anymore. The characters are boring and the story is boring. I saw someone else say that when it launched, everyone was just talking about the memes not the plot or anything. If you get tired of walking to caves the quests and characters won't pick up the slack.
forging bows is better and yeah its fun doing smithing once you get to dwarven
What, you dont love getting lost in a dungeon made of the exact same rooms repeated at nauseam to loot some random shit in some chests?
Does it require the shivering isles ones too? I fucked up and didn't realise there was one for becoming duke on both sides.
fix a broken quest with the console
achievements blocked
Gay and retarded
tech illiterate retard chimes in once again instead of just agreeing with me.
I truly hate being a highly perceptive person with an IQ in the 96th percentile being forced to share a hobby with you retarded apes.
i guess most people just get distracted by all the other questlines.
the main story is pretty short in oblivion anyways, you could rush through it in a few hours
They added clairvoyance for that shit at least
some of us didn't get into Bethesda til FO3, I'm playing Oblivion now like its a new game altogether, a lot of its great but some of the flaws they improved in Skyrim are notable
Has the meme that Oblivion has good side quests died yet? There are some good concepts in there but the bad dialogue and lack of real choices let them down.
being a highly perceptive person with an IQ in the 96th percentile
If you had a high IQ you wouldn't be here.
Incorrect, you can go be dumb somewhere else. I'm not interested in having a debate with you when I have played both games myself and tested this to verify I am not insane. I am not going out of my way to edit this into a webm for you to become some resident thread schizo because I don't care about about your shit slop. But I will absolutely state the fucking facts of the situation and you can do a godanm flip faggot.
GP to a decent extent
People gets scammed into GaaS
they defend it because access to a fuckton of games
Still despite that, they just "play" a game for a short burst of time and never keep playing beyond 4-6hrs at best
rinse and repeat
Many such cases
I am not insane
You're just not high IQ.
I've played Oblivion for over 300 hours ever since it first released and I still haven't beaten the main quest
Using a the console disables achievements and generally only 3/5 gamers actually finish games and this is lower for open world games
Almost immediately
The levelling system
So you've spent the first few hours of the game grinding to gain artificially high levelling or you're brain-dead
steamcommunity.com
Escaped the Imperial Sewers: 90%
Closed an Oblivion Gate: 55%
I disabled achievements immediately by turning off the fog.
They disable achievements if you edit your appearance.
hory shit, 200 million peaople already beat it?? incredeble
Who plays TES for the main story? To most it's a do what you want sandbox.
Most people don't finish their games period. They consoom what's FOTM atm and move on as soon as they get bored. Look how many people have finished Pathfinder Kingmaker/WotR - it's less than 10%. Only 25% of people have finished Disco Elysium - a fucking visual novel that you can play on autopilot. So yeah, nothing wrong with that. I actually spend more than 300 hours in 2006 Oblivion, and never finished main quest.
Do you need to do the dlc to get the platinum trophy?
this might surprise and amaze an idiot like you, but I've already played Oblivion before in my life - for hundreds of hours, actually. If you know how the leveling system works, that knowledge immediately dispels the game's sense of adventure because the whole thing is a loot treadmill.
Facts don't care about your feelings.
I bought it for Shivering Isles mainly, so my Kh*jit abandoned his duties to Tamriel and sat on the throne as the rightful Sheagorath.
Teh end.
Nobody ever finishes the main story newfag
Option 1: they don't want oblivion gates showing up in the over world so they never start at all
Option 2: don't want to finish the story because it closes all the other oblivion gates when you do and it's necessary to have them open if you're farming sigils
Option 3: main quest is boring as fuck and the only real way to have two followers (Martin and Jaffrey)
You making something up =/= facts.
Who the fuck plays BGS games for the main quest?
I've probably played 2,000h of them and only did the MQ of Skyrim and Morrowind once
thinks I'm making things up
Lmao the absolute state of your seething dialated anus, I won't be responding further.
use console to fix the retarded sanguine quest not working
no more cheevos lol
I don't really care but imagine playing a bethesda game without doing any fixes to their dogshit coding
Oblivion is just boring as fuck
Everyone hurried to play renaster it but people forgot how shit the game is
95% of people were bored after few hour and dropped the game
The main quest is the worst part of oblivion.
So nothing to do with the first few hours of the game
Stick to making blacked thread
I'm making things up
You are.
the main quest is worse than the level scaling and shit dungeons
Nah.
ad hominem
likely lies
admits his post was nonsense
so he already knew before making his post that he couldn't have been impacted but the levelling system at that stage
Very odd
hey have fun with your loot treadmill fellas. send me a postcard from oblivion gate #197. it's not like I didn't play the shit out of oblivion when I was 14 so I can't blame you for doing the same thing
Main quest
The most boring part of oblivion? Noo say it isn't so.
The most boring part of oblivion?
But enough about the oblivion gates.
Probably not a good stat since using the console even once disables achievements. I checked to see if "coc toddtest" still worked and since then even my new characters are achievement-locked.
play morrowind
start quest
recall to balmora
rocket to stilt strider or mages guild teleport
optionally use intervention spell
rocket over hills to quest location
click through dialogue
return to balmora
I have found that every quest in morrowshit boils down to this, the only progression is levelling your speed/jump/levitation
Based. Fuck Oblivion contrarians.
You're looking at gamepass stats. People who don't directly pay for games often don't have the motivation to see them through. Look at steam and you'll see higher numbers
buyers remorse
people who didnt pay for the product yet have it can see it for what it actually is
i'm currently testing stuff for a retarded gimmick run where i just have the adoring fan beat the game.
unfortunately the seemingly random way every single thing in this game works is busting my balls.
you can only reverse pickpocket 0 weight stuff, so i have to glitch some droppable bound armor. except the fan doesn't equip it right away, so i have to do a bunch of stuff like dismissing him and hitting him and that might make him equip it, haven't narrowed down exactly what does it.
then, if i fast travel at all his inventory is entirely reset and the armor/weapon i slip in his asshole disappear.
he also has randomly disappeared on me, then when teleported to me with the console he's also got a reset inventory.
but aside from that, it's basically just "make sure command humanoid doesn't run out", especially because i slapped some chameleon on the armor i gave him so enemy ai just kind of stops working. might not want to do that during the real run because it seems too boring.
the fan also walks slow as fuck so getting across the map is going to be a real miserable time.
Zoomer seething he missed the boat
And don't forget the retarded crow that spawned that actually see achievements as important and wouldn't bother because no cheevos.
What?
