I had a great time playing The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. I won't even bother singing its praises, since you're read all that many times before. I will note that I tried to play Morrowind earlier, and didn't like it. That scared me off Oblivion for awhile. But about an hour into Oblivion, I could see that this was a much, much better game. The story line is intriguing, the voice acting is excellent, the music is first-class. It is just difficult enough to be challenging without being frustrating.
Game tip: Make sure to create a character with at least some magic ability for range and area attacks. I played a battlemage, with good melee ability. That worked well. I had a lot of offensive firepower, but weak healing and buffing abilities. But when the hordes moved in, I could melee them.
I think playing melee through the entire game would get way too repetitive. This is a long, long game. I had fun throughout. ... And now I will get the sequel.
