The main thing I disliked about Oblivion was the main story, which paled by comparison to the awesome guild quests. Going through the portals to the hell island/tower things got old quickly, and whever too many NPCs were involved in a fight the game just went full reerun. I'm hoping these issues will be addressed.
Beyond that, I really enjoyed it, right up until the day I burned out right in the middle of Shivering Isles and never played it again. But I had played it for hundreds of hours before that. I guess I'm sort of the opposite of Pants, I love games like this - wandering, exploring, completing all the side quests, scraping together enough points to advance to the level. The endless quest to level up always drives me more than anything. |

So for me, I think it's primarily about story (most important) and then gameplay (combat, primarily). I can grind away endlessly if the combat is fun. Character progression I'm kind of OCD about, but it's not what drives me to play. I will play some other genres if I like the story, too, most recently Dead Space and Dead Space 2. Both of which were awesome. |

I've been playing a lot of Fallout New Vegas over the last couple days. The PS3 crashes are the ****ing worst. It crashes every 2 hours. I hope that they got there shit together for Skyrim.

Going to be awesome to have full on battles with frickin dragons and having to avoid them, watch them destroy cities, etc.

What the **** ever. 11 years later you're bringing this up? What's the last console you've owned?
Why is the 360 being shown as the leading platform for Skyrim? Shut up.

Elder Scrolls experience on a PC is vastly superior. Better graphics, and hundreds of mods that improve the game.

And you can't run mods, which might be the most important thing.

Like battlefield 3, I'll have to get this one for the 360 and then buy the PC version later on when I get a decent gaming PC. Bethesda makes double their money off me.
