Oblivion Revisited!

  • April 10, 2019

    The worst thing so far is that I cannot get Shivering Isles or KotN to work. I’m using the xbox 360 app on the xbox one. I’ve checked, and all the content is downloaded and installed, and neither quest will trigger. All the other stuff is there - the extra books, Mehrune’s Razor, the wizard’s tower, etc. I just can’t get the two big ones to work. Bummer.

    Oh...that's incredibly strange. Wouldn't know the first thing about it personally because I'm a PC player for Morrowind and Oblivion but that really sucks. SI and KoTN are definitely two of the most impressive expansions (back when they still called them expansions) for just about any game I've ever played. So it's really weird that you just can't get those two to work.

    Lol, the voices are starting to get to me now. When Azani Blackheart has the same voice as Armand Christophe, who has the same voice as Baurus, it gets a little weird. But SI and KotN finally triggered! They waited until I hit level 15, which...I didn’t think there was a minimum level, but ok. At least they’re there.

    I love Oblivion with all of my being, but i can't get immersed in the game. Skyrim spoiled me with it's atmosphere, but i prefer the quests, weaponry and magic of Oblivion. I hope you have fun with this Gem. ^^

    I’m also a little more upset than I remember being that something isn’t done about Alesia Caro. The woman likes torturing argonians, for gods’ sakes. Can  I kill her? Like, is she someone who can die or just go unconscious for a bit. Cos, not going to lie, she’s a great freelance target for the Dark Brotherhood.

    And aaaah! Now that I’ve started listening to the voices, it’s so weird! Skyrim spoiled us all, is right. The beggars are so annoying. They have one tone to explain to us that they need to save up for shoes or medicine, and then they switch to this aristocratic highbrow tone to tell me anything I need to know, and then change again to say “thank ye kind lady.” I like to think that they’re using the tone to trick people into giving them money and once they realize I’m Thieves Guild they use their normal voice, but the difference is so monumental. I’m definitely much more quest oriented in Oblivion than I am in Skyrim, that’s for sure.

    You can kill Alessia once you complete the quest for that Khajiit. Hopefully Skyblivion will fix those voice problems.

    I forgot about some of the amazing Oblivion characters. 1. The guy in Cheydinhal who lost his house and goes around singing about the cliff racers flyyyin so hiiigh in the skyyyyy. 2. The snob outside one of the cities who is sure I’m stalking him because I want an invitation to one of his “super” parties. 3. Sah-weeeeet roooooollll. 4. The smith in Bliss who’s concerned about his attractiveness. 5. OMG the orc noble. All his words. I feel like writers of Oblivion had more fun than in Skyrim.

    I lit into Hackdirt tonight like Frank Castle. Wow, that was fun. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bunch of inbred, redneck, religious fanatics.
