I was about 5 seconds from buying it but the GF wouldn't play it with me. I still may get it when I get some free cash. I wanna play it. Diablo was a guilty pleasure of mine (and hers) for a while and Divinity seems like a better version of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to play it co op but it does make it more fun with some of the character interactions. It can make certain points in the game...interesting though(don't want to spoil). I wouldn't say its like Diablo though besides the isometric view. The combat is turn based and much more tactical. I loved it but it can start off extremely difficult(the beginning of the game is by far the hardest part, but once you get to like 75% of the way through you're kinda just plowing everything).

TheGreatBuzz Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I miss the game Fable. Probably my favorite game of all time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Anybody here played Oblivion? @Llevron @clietas @Dont Taze Me Bro @Predicto Saw it was like $100 and thought "Hmm, for a game with no makeover like Skyrim that sure seems steep" I admit, a game primarily centered around the Daedra seems fun, seeing as during my TES tenure, I lean towards foul necromancy/dastardly behaviour. But dawg, those graphics (and if it wasn't Bethesda it wouldn't be so hazardous to my health). Is it really worth it to go waywayback in that way back machine?

It's one of my favorite games ever. Admittedly, I was fairly new to such a level of open-world do anything i want RPG. I absolutely loved it though and I think it's better experience than Skyrim, granted I never finished Skyrim. The overall story of a daedric invasion was a lot of fun. The guilds had some great stuff too, Dark Brotherhood being a huge highlight to me. I thought the world was more varied, had a better layout and was more interesting while the characters and story were a lot better too. The graphics might be a little...rough at this point though. Those 360 era graphics didn't age as gracefully previous generations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I had to have put close to 500 hours in Oblivion. But everything it does well Skyrim does better - and has better mods, and has better graphics. Honestly the only reason I would buy it if I were you is because I know you are into the story telling and role playing. It would be a different adventure and it plays right into Skyrim if you follow it.....but for 100? Hell naw homie.

Momma There Goes That Man Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 $100 obviously includes the Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine which are two really good DLC expansions. Shivering Isles brings an entirely new map, world and a ton of new content. I don’t know why it’s $100. Does it come with a Deadra weapon or something?

I still dont think I would pay 100 for something that came out like 10 years ago - but I cant sit here and act like I didn't put some years into this game.

Mr. Sinister Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Swear to y'all I saw that **** for a a hundred. And yeah, I'm a big lore fan of the books within the gane. In that way, it's already a bit spoiled, seeing as The Oblivion Crisis is talked about extensively in Skyrim, but I'd love to explore true Cyrodiil, and not the lite beer ESO version. And as for ESO @Llevron, it's not that bad now, I just turn off everything that let's me communicate with humans lol, save for the guild traders. Was in zone a week back and some dudes were literally arguing because someone wouldn't say hi over some nonsense (I was just trying to sell that New Life Festival Stuff) Some of these dudes will never see a vagina, or outside/fresh air, and I feel bad for them. Starting to warm up to it a bit though. I'll see where it goes. Right on time though is the datamined Elseweyr DLC, featuring dragons (wtf, but whatever) and the NECROMANCER skill line. Y'all know how much I love my undead homies. 🤘 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Oblivion for what system? It's less than $15 new for the goty edition for the 360/PS3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 PS4, in the PS Store. I sawit, and was shocked. Didn't seem to be a PS+ thing, don't remember if it was PSNow. But it was there, and it said $100. I'm exclusively PS4 now (junked my old 3) so not like I can roll into Gamestop.... I mean I could, but I'm not getting a fresh PS3 just to play Oblivion. I can only surmise it was a PSN exclusive port of some kind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 No, I don't think so. It's still PS3/360 only as a remaster hadn't been done. It is available for the 3 via PS Now but it's not for the 4. You can play the 360 version on the Xbox One though. https://blog.us.playstation.com/2017/12/05/oblivion-dishonored-more-join-the-playstation-now-lineup/ Edit..actually you might be able to play that game on the PS4 because PS Now is essentially Sony's way of doing backwards compatibility. You can get a free 7 day trial of PS Now at the PS store. https://youtu.be/IAXbkr21NwI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Hmm, I gotta check that out when I get home. If it's on PSNow there's no way in sam hell it should be $100. But it's definitely playable on the 4, because I freaking saw it. I already have PSNow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YEah and you can play PS3 games on the PS4 with PSNow. I was playing Shadow of the Colossus and other PS3 games when the service first came out. *edit: i thought SOTC was the PS3 version but maybe it was actually the PS2. I don't even remember which is on PSNow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I was playing PS2 games on Now over the summer with my nephew. We played Twisted Metal (PS3 game), they started featuring ps4 games and PS2 games at some point. Still doesn't explain the $100 tag though. Almost like an owned streaming feature. But the kicker with Now games is you don't have access to DLC and any other add on content usually Sooo, wtf? I'll find out when I get home.

Oblivion is close Some people I've talked to (sparingly) in ESO chat had mentioned Morrowind too. One thing I will say is that I feel Skyrim missed out on an opportunity to New Vegas it up a bit, if you know what I mean. I feel like the Volkihar, the Forsworn, the Bandits, the Orc Strongholds, and the Vigilants of Stendarr could have been a compelling arm, or a direct threat to the Stormcloaks and Imperials. Maybe even the Blades, if you were allowed to build them up even bigger and squash the rebellion, then fight Alduin Once you beat Alduin, it's really hard caring at all about the Civil War, unless you side with Ulfric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warhead36 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Wait, what?? $100 for Oblivion? That's ridiculous. I'm sure you can find it dirt cheap even with all DLC somewhere else. Someone is trying to scam you pal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were so many different factions to join. Most items or persons could be interacted with. Chance for attacks to hit were skill based. Challenging fools in the arena was a blast. Spellmaking..... Im always tempted ta buy the pc version n replay it. Fond memories of that great Rpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
