Does Oblivion get better with time? Would a rent be enough to decide?

Fallout 3 is my favorite game right now, but I took Oblivion back to gamestop in 4 days last year. I didn't use a guide so I wondered around aimlessly for a while and when I found the right path for the main story I thought the way the characters spoke was soo corny. If there are challengeing enemies and it gets not corny later on then maybe I should give it another try. Should I?

Yes you shoudl give it another try. The game is amazing with tons of things to do and places to explore

You definitly will not get everything out of the game if you rent it. Its more of purchase game like Fallout. You do have to remember that this game was released in 2006, so its not going to be 2008/2009 standards. Wait for Elder's Scrolls 5 for that. Also for the remake about how you think they sound corny. There was only like 6 different voice actors so of course its not going to sound perfect.

Buy it, much deeper than Fallout 3.

i cant stand the game anymore but it was fun while it lasted (which was a long time)

if ur like me you may find the game really boring after playing fallout 3

Now, I don't know if you playedOblivion before or after you played fallout 3 the first time. I played Oblivion when it first came out and fell in love. I guess what I mean to say is, when you walked out of that sewer for the first time and saw all that world just waiting to be explored however you want to. If you didn't love it right then and there, I really don't think you ever will.

Oblivion is one of the best games this generation, so i'd say that the game is worth it no matter what

I played Oblivion when it first come out, and I have the same problem: feels like this world is too big and it's almost intimidating. For a game, I really need a strong storyline to lead me and side quest has to have something to do with the main storyline to keep me motivated. Free roaming is just not my thing. So I gave up. After playing fallout 3 and loving it, I feel that maybe I should give it another try, so this time I bought the strategy guild and the game. Still, somehow just don't have the motivation, the game world doesn't really pulls me in, I don't feel attached, and there's no "necessity" or a sense of "emergency" for my action, the world doesn't looks like it's coming to an end if I don't do something about it. I know it's kind of cheesy...but I sort of need to feel related to the game world to "fall in" to a RPG game.

Fallout 3 is kind of different than Oblivion. Although in Fallout 3 you didn't really end up doing anything to "save" the world from total destruction, the game successfully makes you care about your father during the very first couple of hours. I think that's what makes me attached to the game, and then there's dog meat...I can't just abandend that poor dog!

anyway...I say if you didn't get into the Oblivion the first time, probably won't be any difference now. And the frame rate is really killing me...and the games system is unbalance...there're other RPGs with tigher story and stronger characters.

Yeah dude, I've played it for two years now. I've been playing it everyday for two months now, best game i've ever played.

Yeah. You should definitely get it again. And if you don't like the difficulty, you can always make the game harder or easier in the options menu. In my opinion, Oblivion is the best game I have ever played in my entire life. I know you'll really like it after you get going.
