Yeah it does and you say it will suck using FP but I bet youll end up using it more than 3rd person.

Hate the First Person view, you're completely open to attacks from behind you can't see.

I only use it when letting fly with the bow, gives you more of an idea what you're aiming at.

3rd person mode in Oblivion doesn't feel right, I mean it's slightly useful while in sneak mode (to look around corners) but practically useless while using ranged spells and/or bows.

Oblivion only can be played on first person camera. The third person is just to see your character.

are you sure about that? i dont mind using it on bow or spells . but it will not fit for me to use first person all the time.

if what you said are true then im not gonna buy the game.

by the way is there a demo for the game so i can try it?

I don't know, I found the third person view pretty much good for nothing but viewing my character and sneaking. It's no good for using weapons and spells, that's for sure.
