Fun fact: the Adoring Fan's voice actor, Craig Sechler, didn't understand why he was made to play such an annoying character. He said "no one's gonna like this character!" The dudes at Bethesda responded with "exactly! We want the fans to hate him!" Craig loved all the creative ways fans were killing the Adoring Fan, and even remixing his dialogue into songs.

Skyrim is Oblivion, more of the same, just with a lot of necessarily refinement.combat is more flashy if still shallow, magic is cool this time,duel welding was a great addition. becoming a werewolf, vampire lord.Not having 5 voice actors. Once you've walked out of the sweers of oblivion you've seen the whole thing cuz its incredible visually repetitive.

@@nemeru3352 yes you fight Dragons...that all act the exact same and are easy as balls, the combat being more flashy literally means fucking nothing, the magic was always fine, dual wielding added nothing to the game other than added fake complexity, you can become a Vampire, Werewolf, Wereboar in Daggerfall so that's not special in the slightest, again that doesn't matter, implying that Skyrim isn't visually repetitive XD, there is no nuance and on top of that you literally didn't even give examples as to why you think they're nuanced. You say that but Skyrim isn't basic bitch fantasy? Meanwhile ignoring the fact that it has dragons which are literally as basic as you can get for a fantasy setting? And let's not forget that Skyrim has less content, less features, dumbed down the gameplay to where classes don't fucking exist, wasted our time with two main plots that mean fuck all and have no effect on the world, one plot is so poorly written that they go out of their way to make the Stormcloaks out to be the biggest assholes on the planet, etc. Skyrim was a completely shit game that has no charm or personality whatsoever and their half-baked attempt at pleasing the people who liked Oblivion with adding Sheogorath but worse than how he was in 4 was pathetic.

One of my favorite things of Oblivion is just how many weird questlines there are. I've talked to several friends about it for years and only recently found out they had never found or completed the quest where you travel into an artist's painting to save him, which was probably my favorite overall. That level of awesome content just sitting, you're not forced in to it, and can outright ignore or miss it, it just doesn't happen in games anymore.

8:32 Reminds me of the 2008 Pirates of the Caribbean game. Pushed out way too early because Disney wanted it to come out around the time of the movie release. You could be standing on a Spanish held island, talking to a trader with a french accent who would curse the brits and then continue to ask "Can I help you gov'na" with a British accent.

At least you don't have to deal with actual grues, just their Tamriel counterparts. No reason not to have a light handy though!

TheBreakingBenny/ I don't know what you would do without the light ring. What switch to a torch every five seconds? Pft.
@TheBreakingBenny5 жыл бұрын
@@williamj.6418 Needing to change to a torch every five seconds would be dangerously counterintuitive, for sure. That's why being able to wield a weapon in each hand is a blessing (torch and one-handed sword/axe/lance or dagger), and if you can use spells that emit light that works too.

Oblivions Soundtrack is just about the only one that actually makes me a bit teary eyed. Like I don't know if its because I associate memories with it or because it's just that good. I will say it has the best OST of ANY Elderscrolls game and possibly any RPG ever made. #fightme

@@TheMofos32X I wouldn't doubt that at this point, since I know too little to argue for or against it. At least it's nice to be free from the system where you have a risk of missing, something that would only have a place for aimed shots or V.A.T.S.

So stoked you did a review on this man, would be worth mentioning the unofficial patches that help with the framerate to the viewers even though I know you omitted mods for a reason. Thought others should know.
