The Elder Scrolls IV : Oblivion

There has only been one game in my life that i have ever played more then once after finishing the whole story line, and that is Morrowind (for me, by far the best RPG game ever), the third series of the Elder Scrolls. This game stands by itself in my life because this was the game why i spent RM5000 on a new laptop so that i could play it on a high performance machine. Around a few months back, when Bethesda announced of the fourth edition to the Elder Scroll series, Oblivion, the only thing that came into my mind was a new desktop, just 4 this game.

The Elder Scrolls IV : Oblivion begin's with the death of the rulling king without having a proper heir. Since there is no succesor to the throne, the ancient curse beseiged upon the elder scroll realm could not be averted. An ancient curese which holds the Oblivion will break through unless a king is on the throne. Oblivion is a parallel dimension of fire, brimstone and some very angry demons, in short hell. The barrier between this two realm has been opened. You are the chosen one to help close this barrier by finding the legitimate heir to the throne and restore hime to power.

Addition to The Elder Scrolls IV : Oblivion from it's previous series->

• a new game engine called havok physics - this engine has the capability to bring voices to every characters (NPC's) in the game world.
• tactical consequences - one such example is the persistence of arrows, where by gamers could stick an arrow through creatures and later pluck it out from the dead creature once the battle is over.
• added realism to npc's - every character has it's own voicework and walks along a scripted paths that can interdict at any point of time, and also eyes that tracks down on every movement while interacting with the gamer.
• combat - combat system is now ruled by actual physics based on gamers stats.
• graphics - photo realistic graphics.

The best is for the last, this game like it's award winning predecessor, Morrowind allows you to explore the main quest whilst playing or gamers could abondon the main quest entirely in order to gain name and fame in the Elder Scroll world. From all that I have read and herd of this game, good or bad, one thing is for sure come June (when the game will be released) rest assured, big amount of cash will be ready to buy a new desktop with the very best tecnology available in the market at that point of time just for this game. I think I wont regret it, just as i wasn't in the year 2002 when The Elder Scrolls III : Morrowind was released. Till then, i'll be waiting for any updates to this game from Bethesda Softworks. Adios.
