Dont say its because of its time either because there are snes/ps1/xbox/ps4 era games i never played before till Emulators that i enjoy.

Ive been saying 360/ps3/wii era mostly ass besides a handful of first party games from each n a handful of 3rd party. This just further cements it.

S*** is legit my least fav gen we've past so far.

Im mad af at my wasted time

Can we acknowledge that he said there’s no fast travel. Not only is there fast travel but i’m pretty sure you can straight up fast travel to all the cities without having been there

I didnt know that, the map doesnt even seem like you can click on anything & the ui is a mess.

But i also said "that i can see" because i knew there was something i was probably missing.

I rarely use fast travel in any game as is, but yeah knowing i could fast travel and avoid the terrible n empty open world for the most part would have been a blessing.

Doesnt negate everything else i said tho. "No fast travel" isnt even top 5 of my complaints. Its the s***ty combat, terrible robotic characters, dungeons that rarely have anything useful, terrible UI & the baffling dialogue.

Honorable mention to the trash AI & the game literally stopping you from going up even a SLIGHT incline in the open world.

Bro this s*** lowkey ass.

The sword combat is even dumber than Skyrim which doesnt have good melee (although passable) gameplay already either.

The UI is a mess n cumbersome.

The characters are robots.

Partner n escort AI is so f***ing bad even for the time.

A lot of the dungeons dont have anything worthwhile. Thus being wastes of time.

Armor fashion is ass.

To level up you have to find a place to literally sleep.

You cant "Skyrim up mountains" in Oblivion because the s*** stops you from jumping literally. Its built in to stop you. Even if its a slight incline. Which makes traveling very annoying n way longer. A horse makes it a bit easier, but not much. And theres no fast travel that i can see.

The open world is mostly empty n mindless, just a backdrop for getting to point a & b, besides the occasional landmark or dungeon. The stone activations are dumb, & most of the time youre slowly walking (no sprint at least that i can see) for MINUTES at a time with only the occasional wolf and MAYBE bandit encounter.

Im a Battlemage. Destruction/Conjure magic n Sword/Blunt weapons.

The only cool things is the magic spells & how cities are set up.

Ayo, I feel you on this one, fam. 😂

Oblivion's definitely showing its age by now, especially when you compare it to Skyrim or more recent games. But you gotta remember, it was released in 2006 – so of course the combat, UI, and AI ain't gonna be on the same level as newer titles.

That being said, the story and quests in Oblivion are straight fire, and the guild quests are some of the best in the series. So if you can look past the outdated gameplay mechanics, there's still a lot to enjoy.

And bruh, don't even get me started on the leveling up system – I always found that sleep-to-level-up thing mad annoying. 😒

But for real, give the game a chance. It's a classic for a reason. Just remember to save often, and if the open world feels too empty, maybe try out some mods to spice things up. 💯

Oh, and by the way, there is fast travel in Oblivion, you just gotta open the map and click on a discovered location. It's a lifesaver, trust me. 😏

Anyway, happy gaming, bro. And remember, you can't expect every old game to live up to today's standards – sometimes you gotta appreciate the classics for what they were at the time. 🎮👊

Most of them are ass or just fine.

Only a few are worthwhile.

The best games are PS2/Og Xbox & N64/PS2.
Its the best in terms of multiplayer for console tho.

Most of the games of that era are pretty much colorless for "realisim" (which doesnt even make sense in the first place, real life has hella color even deserts & cities) which hurts their timelessness even more, a lot of them are either overly serious or ridiculously edgy which neither side most of them can pull off, the era is full of shovelware the most of any other era, the era killed off many genres besides FPSs & RPGs, many games are rehashed or literal ripoffs of others (probably due to the abundance of shovelwar titles n companies) while homongenizing gaming to a ridiuclous point that we're slowly getting out of.

My fav games of the ps3/wii/x360 era tho:

Dark Souls 1
Super Mario Galaxy 1 n 2
Mass Effect 2
God of War 3
Metal Gear Solid 4
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Fallout NV & 3
Skyrim
Bioshock 1 & Infinite
Halo 3 & Reach
Metroid Prime 3
Dishonered 1
Dead Space 1
Monster Hunter 3

My fav multiplayer game:

Battlefield 3

Outside of those im good. The library is good 5 percent ok 10 percent and terrible 85 percent imo.

I haven't played Half Life 2 or the Portsls besides a lil bit at a friends. Idc about Borderlands, Assassins Creed, Uncharted, COD or Far Cry. The Last of Us & Red Dead Redemption 1 (i love RDR 2 tho) is ok, they have great stories but their gameplay weak n sometimes annoying. Little Big Planet series is fun for what it is but its nothing that lasts worthwhile for me. Killzone & Resistance are some of the most missed potential of all time that ended up mediocre as hell n look terrible nowadays. Gears of War series is mind numbing & whack to me and are also super ugly n rough nowadays. And i was never into the Arkham games theyre repetitive to me (although i dont hate them).

Wii is the only console i ever had buyers remorse for so far.
