I love the lvl system its just perfect, much better then gaining xp like in 99% of the RPGs, its old and boring.
The problem is:

(I mean it! This is a spoiler, do not read if you don't want to know how to abuse the MW/OB level system!)

blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala The game encourages you to do stupid things like jump in place for 30 minutes if you want high acrobatics, or just if you want that nice 5x mult near the end of a level. The worst problem is that you cannot achieve a great character through intelligent choices - you have to make the most ***-backwards choices instead. Want to lay waste to enemies with a longsword, wearing heavy armor? DON'T choose blade and heavy armor as primary; choose blunt and light armor, but only use blade and heavy armor. Then your blade and heavy armor skills (and, when you *rarely* level, their associated stats) go through the roof, while enemies stay at a low level. If you actually pick the skills you use (or use the skills yuou pick), you level too quickly, and only get x1 or x2 level-ups (very bad!) and have much lower skills for the things you use at any given level. blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala blahblah blah blah blahblahblah blah lala blah lalala

What did you meant less ugly people? You gotta be kidding, the variety of the faces in Oblivion is endless. There are hot women, ugly orcs etc, and all of them are different regarding their "face".
...Have you seen the before and after "Beautiful Faces / Bodies / Clothes" mods for Morrowind? Oblivion looks a lot like "Before" The forests and dungeons and etc. are amazing, but the people (to me) look ugly. Not low-tech, or low-poly, or low-res... just ugly and unnatural, especially compared to what modders can do for free with the same tools.

You gonna miss the best game out there atm, if you wont buy it right now Saber. :-)
Oblivion >>>> Morrowind, and it is not just the gfx. Everything is just perfect.
I agree with both of those (well, except for the 'best' part). But I'd rather miss "X" now and enjoy "3X" later than enjoy "X" now and miss "3X" later. I think you are eating pie dough because you can't wait for the pie
