Only 2.77% of people have beaten Oblivion Remastered

What went wrong?

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/stats/2623190/achievements

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.

Oh, i thought you were talking about some crow ingame or somthing

Oblivion and elder scrolls slop in general is extremely generic boring shit. Its the most vanilla normalfag NPC shit ever. There is nothing that skyrim/oblivion or hell even morrowind does extremely well. Every character is boring, every RPG """choice""" is boring. Dialogue is boring, loot is boring, dungeons are boring, RPG systems are boring, combat is boring and bad. There are no interesting bosses. The worlds are devoid of life. The towns are not interesting

Theres a reason why Anon Babble talks about expedition 33 nonstop. Theres a reason why it now has triple the playerbase daily on steam despite oblivion stealing its thunder at the beginning. Expedition 33 has a lot of well made things about it that are fun and interesting. Nothing about elder shit series is interesting

fuck elder shit. Most normalfag fucking series

based clair obscur fan

Level scaling really does ruin the fun

stealthy dagger stabby guy

Levels 1~6: If I sneak up on someone, it's a one hit kill, if I miss I will be in danger of dying instead

Level 12+: If I sneak up on someone it'll hit them for maybe 20% of their health and then it's a swinging match between to meat shields

booooring

Nah you're just 20.

The game is designed for you to fuck off and potentially never touch the main quest. That is what an RPG USED to mean, just create your own story. We also weren't obsessed with trophies/achievements and video games were a one time purchase, so it literally didn't matter if someone ever saw the end of a game. Xoomers simply cannot relate.

Get chameleon enchantments, ironically sneaking is less broken in the remaster and requires supplements.

I've got 40+ hours and haven't really touched the main quests yet. I just hopped from town to town looking for all the side quests. Working my way through the fighters guild quests now.

seems like an excuse and a whole bunch of cope to hide the fact that the game is bad and nobody wanted to commit to finishing it

BUT BUT BACK IN MUH DAY

dumb zoomernigger trying to rewrite history. Back in the day people loved beating games. That was the primary reason people made games, to beat them. Nowadays AAA slop is just 100+ hours of open world slop to waste your time so you never beat the game with meaningless fluff instead of a nice short solid game you can beat and infinitely replay like a super metroid or a zelda OoT

stop making excuses you dumb zoomnigger

Blahblahblah

The game is about creating your own story. The expectation that everyone would beeline the main quest is just absurd. Oblivion is a game that could realistically take normalfags 100+ hours to finish. But trogs can't into math.

posts the most zoomerfag streamer FOTM live service slop as your picture

yup i was right i was fucking right i can smell the zoomerfag every post. Muh back in the day was probably 2015 for you when you played witcher 3 dumb zoomerfag. Opinion discarded

I agree to an extent. The fact of the matter is passed a certain point you have no real reason to explore anymore. Once every bandit you run across has Ebony/Daedric/Glass armor what's the point of delving into ruins anymore?

open world RPG

main story completion

guaranteed replies

14% of Skyrim players never got the unbound achievement

Console players somehow do it.

Yah. Oblivions questlines are dog shit. Why do you think The Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild quests are the only two that get glazed?

main quest is gay
didn't even finish it for the original version

theres literally no reason to do the main quest other than to get the star of azura.
once you do you can tell the blades to fuck off and never give them the daedric artifacts.

there's dozens of random oblivion gates that give out better shit like fortify magicka and ring of skimming. walking on water like Jesus is a better perk than some gay heavy armor.

The remaster's leveling is so much better than the original it's crazy and the fix is so simple.

you don't need to bother with the main quest to get azuras star

I'd argue there are a decent amount of people who don't like having oblivion gates pop up everywhere and hold off on it. Same thing with Dragons in Skyrim.

try to play the game normally

magic is so fun in this game, but can't do crazy spells until you up your magicka

one of the best items they bugged out the quest for it to not give it to you when you're supposed to get it at the end of the mages guild

have to do all of the shivering isles to actually be able to get it

have to do god knows how many oblivion gates to get +50 magicka stones, only saw one out of like 20 gates

can't finish the mora quest because the spell is so insanely bugged out it has a list of like 10 ways to try and fix it, none worked for me

even then you would still struggle farting out spells and most of them glitch out on enemies anyways

end up doing the infinite magicka glitch and dupe items and do the perma buffs because fuck it i'm glitching anyways

become all powerful and get bored, stop playing

That's Obsidian, so your original statement is still true

I never pirated Shivering Isles when it came out because I stopped caring about Oblivion by then
Holy fuck what a piece of SHIT
The quests suck
Everyone is retarded
I almost quit so many times

Skyrim ruined the skull of corruption

for that alone it will always be shit

Nothing funnier that some Khajiit wearing 20k septims worth of armor with enough health to fight Dagon himself trying to hold me up for 100.

Use console to fix the inevitable quest breaking bug you will encounter at some point

oops no achievements

I pirated it and don't care for achievements one way or the other but this was retarded from Bethesda.

cheat

oops no achievements

50% installed mods and then immediately uninstalled

the main quest is actually pretty cool

Most people play on console.

I honestly don't see why people say Oblivion's voice acting is bad. Sure some VAs are better than others but the general quality is decent. The new Khajiit female VA is the only one I'd say is not good.

I honestly don't see why people say Oblivion's voice acting is bad

Because it's shit.

20

Y-yeah, 20....

That's 4 too many

Yeah I hated it.
I just went invisible as much as possible and dashed through because I wasn't enjoying it at all.

Zoomers got hyped into it and dropped it because they have adhd and can't finish a game if their lives counted on it

they arent missing out on much
