Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

[Acebot44]

We are pleased to announce that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is currently in development for PC and future generation consoles. In development since 2002, Oblivion is another leap forward in role-playing with its combination of freeform gameplay and cutting-edge graphics. The world-exclusive details on Oblivion are featured in the October issue of Game Informer. Check out their mammoth 12-page cover story to get all the details and screenshots. (And yes, that's in-game art on the cover.)

(And yes, that's in-game art on the cover.)

What does that even mean, 'in-game art'? Sounds very wishy-washy to me.

But it's cool news nonetheless. I bought Elder Scrolls 3 for PC way back when and played it a lot before it got stolen from me, so I couldn't play it anymore.

I just wish I had more time for huge games like this. I'd like to be sucked into them, but I know I shouldn't spend countless hours at a computer desk.. or more countless hours than I already do.. :sneaky:

I'm guessing they mean that the dude and horse are in game character models. Basically just a screenshot, I think.

[Happydude]

in anycase, im definetly going to be getting this game...morrowind and it's expansions ware great, i have no doubt that this one will be as well...

[Vampyr]

Looks pretty good. I'll probably be getting it for the PC, because that will be my gaming platform of choice in college in about 3 years. I'm not taking any consoles with me, I'm just going to buy a really really good gaming computer.

Looks gorgeous.

What type of game is it? Fantasy RPG?

[Canyarion]

I like horses. :D

Elder Scrolls is.... kinda fantasy RPG I think. Gorgeous world where you upgrade your skills by practising them (at least in Morrowin). It's just a great game concept. :D

Sweet graphics

Already, this early in development, they are excluding Nintendo.

Yeah I noticed that too. Kinda seems like their shooting themselves in the foot when nobody even knows what the Revolution will be able to do or what market Nintendo will target with it. I mean, they surprised us with the new Zelda. Is it too much to hope that they've got something else up their sleeve?

[Canyarion]

Eeeeeeeh the new Zelda is for the GC, you know that? :)

Yep, Nintendo really needs to give out some info to get developers!

Yeah, I know that... You misunderstand... Their choice to not bring Elderscrolls IV to the Revolution seems premature. The Gamecube and N64 have not been the most successful adult consoles. However, what they've done with Zelda, is target a different audience.

My intended interpretation was that it's possible Nintendo will do the same thing with the Revolution in general.

[Canyarion]

Ooooow ok, :D. Thanks for explaining, +rep. :p

[Rubber Kitty]

Hopefully 85% of this game won't be spent staring up at the sky smacking cliffracers :p

[Canyarion]

LOL!!!! +rep! :D

I hope this one will be scarier.... Morrowind had its moments, but I was so strong, I KNEW nothing could happen to me. :D

yeah...same...

[Yoda9864]

God, I want this game now! Morrowind is in my top five games of all time. This looks like it'll be a lot better. Mmmmm..... :drool:


The third time I played through Morrowind, I played as a crazy ass powerful mage. I had rings and robes and shoes that would replenish my health constantly. So I was getting like 50 hp every second. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but it kinda got boring knowing that I couldn't get killed. I was also making potions that restored magicka at like 10000 points for 200 seconds (you gotta love those fortify intelligence potions, lol). It got kinda rediculous at times, lol. But man, I could kick anybody's butt.
