I can't say I like Skyrim better than Oblivion.

Skyrim streamlined the leveling system, and a lot of other things. And made the game about Vikings. But the sheer scope of stuff that was in Oblivion isn't in Skyrim.

well all that build up to "he's a ghost" was a bit "wat" inducing

but i will be damned if it wasn't creative with the shelley passages

skyrim's better

oblivion only has nostalgia in its favor

the only characters remotely memorable from oblivion that aren't the guards are from shivering isles

What do you mean by "streamlined"?

And, well, Nords are kinda Vikings.

Doesn't Oblivion have its fair share of faults, such as bandits with glass armor who still try to rob your five septims?

Count Janus Hassildorf is Count of Skingrad, Vampire, he's fien with being a vampire, but he wants his wife free.

Also beat the shit out of his Steward.

The Paranoid Elf is also in Skingrad, he thinks everyone in part of a conspiracy to kill him.

I mean streamlined as in it made all that stuff more accessible.

Oblivion's class system was a bit of a mess. Mostly because there's a bunch of useless skills you don't need so you had to train skills from other specializations to level up but that slowed your leveling and reduced the grinding to interesting stuff ratio.

Lachance was best mentor.

All sandboxes like these eventually will have PC developing the max in at least a couple of abilities. Accessibility is a fine thing to have.

Though I wish that some Daedric Artifacts weren't quite as easily obtained though. Getting Wabbajack is especially easy if you know how to start the quest in question.

I play all my games blind, and so getting the wabbajack happened by accident.

It was pretty damn entertaining that mission.

What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?

The quest was pretty entertaining, yeah.

Sanguine's beats it by a long shot though.

Ferg, if there's any way you could cut back on the astoundingly convenient clairvoyance of your character, it would be much appreciated. He's starting to feel a little mouthpiece-y.

And all he hears on either side is you're a sorry little ingrate who's never done anything right because you're too incompetent

Good effort, though.

Agreeing with what Spaz said.

called drugs

But the drugs just prove how incompetent he is.

Aven doesn't need drugs.

If you didn't mess up all the time, things wouldn't be this way.

You don't even have any real problems to complain about. Aven has real problems, though, and he does okay.
