And incidentally, someone might actually have friends who happen to own the game. I know it's a bold idea, but it might just be the case, yaknow? Of course, I would be very surprised if such were to be the case... aren't we all supposed to be hermits?

Most if not all licences I have read allow the transfer of the licence to another party, provided that the previous owner removes the game from said computer. So the friends way stands even to a literal reading of the licence (unless the Oblivion EULA explicitly states the contrary).

Now Vicious Love, you are supposed to call him a bourgeois. No, really. Trust me on that one.

All that debate about the honesty of the mod price ?
My, Graeme, I can't understand what you're doing : trying to disqualify people discontent by the attitude of the publishers who makes paying mods, and call them pirates ?

I'd just like to point you to this here link: http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Gripes
This should cover most of the flaws of Oblivion, I believe.

Oh, and by the way, I've seen the Radiant AI at work, and it doesn't look very "radiant"... Atleast, I don't think people standing in the middle of the road staring straight ahead at some far-away wall is very "radiant"...

I've seen people do this downtown late at night, and I've been known to do this in hallways at work after long days of database work and posting to this site... maybe it's more realistic than you think? Is there no way to get drunk/high/bored/insane in Oblivion? If not, I will NOT buy this game.

theres skooma, its a drug that makes your stronger and faster but your intelligence and agility plummit to a very low level so you basically cant cast spells and 1 hit will knock you over. im not sure about getting drunk because i sell all my alcaholic beverages

OG_Gleep · #**147** April 15th, 2006, 09:25 PM

I have close to 60k right now. I haven't been playing for a year, and only a tiny portion of that was gained through picking through the various guilds. Novice alchemy equipment can only take you so far.

OG_Gleep · #**148** April 15th, 2006, 09:44 PM

Shovah - yeah they stack. You can create a chamealon suit, and be invisible.

VL - Yeah you can roleplay a pure theif, or a pure fighter or pure whatever you want to do. But he said he finished the assasins guild...so...I guess you can stop after you have done that.

ive taken it upon myself to kill people who insult me or my species, its kinda fun (too bad you cant kill important people)
so my low leveled characters achievements are:
arena grand champion
dark brotherhood listener
master alchemist
knight of the white stallion (dont ask)
somewhere in the thieves guild
a few others i cant think of

edit: thanks for clarifying the cameleon thing (i had a feeling they stacked since i could stand infront of people and not be noticed) but the problem now is finding a pair of cameleon greaves, boots and a helm. currently i have a spys curiass and the hands of midnight (20% cameleon, 30 sun damage and +10 hand to hand skill, not too bad especially for my level)
also if anyone wants a tip on how to quickly raise alchemy just fast travel to all the farms you have found and make a load of restore fatigue potions (can get quite alot of money too)

OG_Gleep · #**150** April 16th, 2006, 11:30 AM

Yep, restore fatigue pots is the easiest way to quickly raise alchemy and get a little cash. Unfortunatley, we both put alchemy as a main skill. This can lead to some inflated levels, and I would recommend anyone starting or who has just begun to not do so.

A caution shovah, about the chamelon thing. It makes you totally invisible, and since its a equipment buff, its constant. You will be able to basically do anything you want and the NPCs won't be able to see or target you. Sorta like god mode, except with the NPCs yelling for you to come out. Some people dig it, but the majority of the people said it sucked out any kind of challenge.

About the AI - I have seen some pretty cool things, and the fact that its not scripted...we are moving in the right direction. Its not perfect, but its a window at whats to come. I don't understand why there is so much negativity towards Oblivion. Reminds me of PS2 fanboys on a Xbox forum.
