Oblivion Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Advanced graphics and some simplifications built upon the successes of Morrowind helped create this masterpiece.

Pros:
Graphics- Hands down some of the most beautiful graphics you will find for a fantasy setting. Nice huge open environment with the ability to save anywhere. Customization options for your character with multiple professions to choose from or add to. There are some interesting weapons and spells to choose from. Having the ability to create potions and poisons with some interesting effects. Having a marker placed on your map for the quest you are on helps finding the destination much easier than Morrowind, but takes some of the fun out of finding it. The game will take months to complete unless you concentrate on just the main plot, but that defeats the purpose of the RPG experience.
Combat system was easy to use. After you played this game thoroughly you probably won't play it again for some time.

Cons:
The balance system used in the game to adjust the toughness level of the creatures to your character level and skill could use a little more work. This feature will make super tough goblins instead of wimpy goblins when attacking the same lair dependent on your character's level. You will die a fair amount of times due to the number of creatures and men you will need to fight. There are tons of quests to accomplish. This is a double edge sword. Lots to do or redundant steps not leading you to the Promised Land. I guess it depends on how you perceive it. Most don't have anything to do with the main quest so it could get redundant.

Overall Score: 91/100

Some suggestions to Bethesda:
Limit the amount of invisibility of items that have Chameleon spells put on them. 100% invisible should not be attainable.

Night Vision should also be tempered somewhat like the Chameleon spell.

Better thief and assassin missions. Morrowind had better assassin missions.

Better stealth meters and improvements based on available shadows and light sources. Currently your character can walk down a well-lit hall and if his stealth skills are way up there nobody can see him.
More diversified magic spells.
Don't provide the ability to create your own class of character. This sounds like something the people would like to do, but the game is coded with constructed characters sets in mind.
