They should have postponed the game and worked on performance issues. Hopefully they will continue tweaking and release a patch.

They already did. It was supposed to come out in novermber and they did that and they decreased load times by like 300% amongst other things.

They are just too damn funny.
Are there any more?

No. They postposed the game late last year because it simply wasn't done. It's done now but I suspect it will still have performance issues. No matter, I'm still gonna play and enjoy this game for sure.

There will be no demo of Oblivion. If you played and liked Morrowind though, you will definitely like Oblivion. Performance may come with time and patches and new hardware.

That's actually false. They already said that the game CONTENT has been done since november and they were just tweaking it. They've been saying that striaght up in every interview.

No demo of Oblivion ever. The dev's think that they would never be able to make a demo that showcases what the game is really about, so they just don't want to do it.

Anyone know of a place where I can get infusion, needles etc? I guess I can put the table in front of the toilet seat so I never have to get up for the rest of my life :)

Definitely want to get this... damn, it comes out the day before I go away to a conference... guess how much listening I *cough*won't*cough* be doing... ;)

FramerateUK · Post by **FramerateUK** » 05 Mar 2006, 15:06

I installed morrowind last night just for a quick game before Oblivion comes out :)

I cant beleive how much its dated! Looks a bit bland compared to new games... the controlls are a bit cumbersome too, i think i might be getting the 360 version, i think it should be fine with a pad.

I just got a call from GameStop that my copy will be available for pickup tomorrow afternoon! I'll see you guys in a few months, if you're lucky :P
