its still a slow paced game but oblivion has full voice throughout the entire game..

in fact, they said over 25 hours of recorded voice!

the recorded voice doesn't mean that much to me.  I loved Morrowind, and I plan on Killing Oblivion, but after playing it for a while, your eventually going to hear the same things repeated over and over again.  I just hope there's an option to turn if off after things begin to become repititious.  But I'm sure at first, all the sayings will be cool to hear.

I was always buying it(I think), keeping it is whole other issue.  

If I feel it'll collect dust like Morrowind did after 10 hours, its going on ebay. If its too vast, I wont be able to keep focused on it and I'll end up playing my other games instead. I may however just go thru the main quest and sell it afterwards if its truly only 25 or so hours. The 200+ hours isnt my thing, hence why I liked Fable, nice and short and if it was any longer of an adventure, I wouldnt have cared for it.

*If* I think it looks like ass and it just so happens to have jaggies that are unbearable, the main quest wont see more than an hour, its either being exchanged at EB for FarCry or Tomb Raider, or on ebay it shall go. I am by no means a fan of RPGs. Fable is the only one I ever bought and finished and liked. The rest were either 2 ugly and boring, or 2 long(morrowind).

It could turn out to be one of my all time favorites as well. I stopped speculating long ago about this game, not worth the troubles honestly. There are games out there that I KNOW will blow me away, those are the ones I care about, I bought one of those last Wednesday  

Ghosts! Mount up!

Oh and let me add that if the visuals please me, and I already know the in game music rocks(been listening to soundtrack all day), that could be enough to keep me interested for a while, long enough to finish the main quest anyways

Don't worry, it took the OXM team 40+ hours to beat the game.
But they did say that there's plenty of side quests to keep you gaming for up 200+ hours.

I'm with you, I totally loved Fable (I'm waiting for Fable 2).
It was long enough for me....
As for Morrowind, I never really got into it because I didn't find the time.
But I'll be sure to make time for Oblivion. 40+ isn't too bad, I mean I played through both Star Wars KOTOR games easily. And if Oblivion is just that damn good and addicting, who knows maybe I'll play through the 200 hours

Yeah I definitely want to try and give the main quest a shot, I feel it deserves that. With morrowind I had no idea what to do and felt lost and very intimidated. From everything weve read, theyve done away with that so Im looking forward to it.

Ive been listening to the soundtrack for a couple days now, I just let it loop and relax

as ugly as morrowind was i had a blast and loved playing it, which is why i clocked over 200 hours and still never finished the game.  however i can easily see me getting lost and enjoying this beautiful world to no end.

friend sent it via AIM, he got it from some site.

Exactly. It made Morrowind very boring for me.


Anyways, are we going to be getting a new teaser vid each day?

I had the same problem with Morrowind.  Once I had a few quests going, i couldnt keep track of who i was doing them for or where i needed to go.  I know you had the quest log, but really, i didnt want to flip through all the pages looking for what i was supposed to do.  It was fun for a while until it got to tedius to walk everywhere(and get killed by rats lol).  Im really looking foward to playing this game though.

The dates quoted in the trailers are correct.  As of yesterday it will be 6 days till the 21st (5 days from today).   Most stores wont sell it until the 21st, since tuesday is typically the release day for new games/movies/electronics. I'd love to have it the 20th, but I don't want to set myself up for dissapointment.
