I found a really good way to get an impression on how the game is.
At Gamespot they had a 12 hour marathon of a reviewer playing Oblivion.
Here is a link with a movie of the highlights. Really good way to get an impression.

Cool - can't wait till I get home this evening... "Oblivion here I come!" :lol:

Wow ... this game is good !!! ... I just needed to re-enforce that ... :lol:

Tease. :P

I have never liked RPG apart from DeusEx ... and that to me wasn't really a RPG ... Oblivon is has me hooked ... I've been playing it nigh on non stop since it arrived this morning ... only breaking to answer emails and tease ... : :mrgreen:

I wish I could do that. :P

D'oh, played till 4 am this morning again, finally got all of my recommendations so I was allowed to enter the arcane university :D

I'm still scared to go back to kvatch though -_-

So, what are you all playing as?

Class: Bad-Ass <--- Really funny, it was like, "Are you sure you want to be a Bad-Ass?"

Race: Breton
Sign: The Mage <--- Call it a n00b choice, I don't care. I never have liked messing with advantages and disadvantages.
Major Skills: Blade, Heavy Armor, Restoration, Destruction, Mysticism, Alteration, Speechcraft.

I can fight my way through anything. Snipe with a few target spells, then hack away.

Woooo!
This game rocks! gfx look great!

The game auto detects the settings for you, and it recommend high for me.. (don't know why cause my system isn't really that good) but it runs good on 1440x900 , it has AA on 2x, no HDR (you can't have hdr and aa on at the same time :? ), and I still have a pretty good fps. You don't really need a high fps though, it's not a shooter.

To everyone that doesn't have this game yet, GO AND GET IT!

My dear friend, you MUST try Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel. I hated RPGs before I played through those two games.

...and I don't call myself a Star Wars fan either.
