Why did people like this broken shitheap?
there is something comforting about it even though it's hard to actually play itgod I wish there was an actual solution to the difficulty setting that was playable on max without turbo cheese, like it being just a level offset that calculates enemy stats higher if you set the difficulty to maxthe game becomes mathematically more than 100x easier if you go from max to min difficulty
>>737600856The comfy music and schizo npc conversations distracted me from my parents yelling at each other
Oblivion so good when you don't got a Morrovestite and a Skyhomo in ya ear telling you it's bad
>>737600856the music and cities
this game is proof that people are blinded by nostalgia. this game was total shit and yet people like it now because they played it during their glory years
>>737600856mid-2000s tech demo spectacle aside >the guild quests, specifically the dark brotherhood quest>shivering isles was actually goodit was a step down from morrowind in most respects but it could have been good jank if it didn't have level scaling
the Elden Ring of the 2000s
>>737600856it's comfy (until the level scaling really starts to kick in)
It does quests well
The esthetics mostly. It's just a super comfy game.
>>737600856It had something your new and modern zoomie games don't have anymore.Fun.
Broken is overstated. It's fine and you can play it from beginning to end with little to no issues. It also happens to be one of most immersive games ever made with a pretty good story and some really fun quests. I got all the achievements in the remake recently. Was a blast.
>>737602278i mean not really? sure the contextual elements are more interesting than most games, but the gameplay itself in the quests is terrible, just follow the fucking quest marker, no gameplay at all. either that or do shitty combat in the dungeons or oblivion gates.
>>737601980>the only reason people like it is that they have fond memories of it!I'll never understand why people think "nostalgia" is the dunk they pretend it is.
>>7376023139 year old zoomers were playing this in 2006.
>>737602278It hardly has any fetch quests too. You just travel around and visit towns and cities and talk to the people there about their lives and whatever troubles them and then organically the quest kind of manifest.
>>737602391I don't even get what zoomer even refers to anymore when a significant chunk of us are pushing 30 and now get to be the nostalgic old fucks
>>7376025031997-2012 are zoomers
>>737602526Too broad a range isn't it? I have nothing in common with someone born after ~2002
>>737602437Yup that’s what I mean
>>737602558Millennials start at 1981 and they have to share a range with 1996. Younger zoomies are your brethren whether you like it or not.
>>737600856Skyrim was the first open world game, there has never and will ever be anything like it. I used to play it for hours every day, it defined my early childhood. I used to sing the Skyrim song when it was time for bed.
>>737602391Wasn't this game rated M? Were Zoomers' parents really buying their 9 year olds M rated games en masse? Actually that explains a lot.
>>737602558>>737602635I agree they shouldve redefined it further1980-891990-992000-09But the 0s would still argue the 9s dont fit so what can you do
>>737602678I bet you were the type of faggot to work at Gamestop and always made sure to point out to my mom that a game was rated M. Fuck you.
>>737602678I played GTA 3 at the age of 6 at an older relatives house and begged for GTA SA on the PS2 til i got it
>>737600856You could ask that about any Bethesda game.
>>737600856I want to marry Dar-ma.
>>737600856How many other games are there where you can genuinely wait for people to leave their house and then rob them?Genuinely, and I'm not just talking about someone walking to other side of a wall so they can't see you picking shit up or whatever. It's the combination of a few "basic" mechanics but it's still completely unique to Bethesda's games.
>>737600856They weren't brown soulless golems like you.
>>737600856I really don't know, I Think a lot of people didn't play the previous games or something. The level scaling is utter broken dogshit, only game where you have to really be careful when you level up to make sure you don't fuck yourself up.Absolute most boring dungeons in the history of the entire series.Only redeeming parts are some of the quests and the scenery was really pretty at the time if you had a good pc to run it.3/10 shit game and the beginning of the end for vidya as a non-casual non-troon industry
Even back then most people thought it was shit. Most people that look on it favorably played it on xbox 360 when they were 12.
>>737602384>ROSE TINTED GLASSES! REEEEEEEEE!This one always cracks me up. Like my own memories are unreliable, or some shit. So glad I have an unlimited supply of weirdos to tell me that what I remember is wrong.
