This! :yeah:

I've stopped looking for info on games which I'm going to buy regardless of the reviews or such. I find it much more enjoyable to start a game you've waited for, without knowing almost anything about it. This way you get surprised by those niceties and features the game consists.

For example, I sucked every bit of information from Red Dead Redemption while I was waiting for it. Finally after I received my copy it felt like I had played the game before!

Anyone know what race they're going to go for?

I myself am thinking Nord as the game is set in their home area, will probably net me some sort of benefit.

As for class, I like to stick to warrior, probably try and go for something with an axe and shield.

Nord Warriors are always my favorite Elder Scrolls race/class, so I'll probably go that route as well.

I've only used Imperials, but then again I've only played about 2 hours of morrowind and 40 something of Oblivion. Haven't really had multiple characters.

Wood Elf + Rogue most likely.

I'm usually a Breton magic user of some kind.

Argonian magic/melee mix perhaps. :hmmm:

Nord Warrior.

edit:
I notice over here our online gaming store is releasing 'Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion 5th Anniversary Edition' due out on 30 Sept.

http://www.mightyape.co.nz/product/P...tion/18384787/

Is this a new release of the game or the store just trying to cash in from an old release. I was thinking of getting it and try and finish the expansions before skyrim comes out. One thing I hated with Oblivion which drove me nuts was those Oblivion gates alll over the land, even though you could go into them anytime you wish I just hated the fact that they existed. I did go and complete one and another would show up do that and another would show up. :damn: If there was a cheat to blow all those gates up I would of used it.

Crom help me if they put those damn gates in Skyrim!

Breton thief here. Marksman/blade/sneak. And security, of course; kind of goes with the territory.

Looks like a Game of the Year edition type thing:

Quote:

As first discovered by Nitrobeard, the special edition will include Oblivion, its two expansions (Knights of the Nine and the excellent Shivering Isles), a collector's steelbook, a making-of documentary, and a full-color map of Cyrodiil and the Shivering Isles. As a sticker on the front of the box shows, buying the 5th Anniversary Edition will also entitle you to $10 off the purchase of Skyrim and a strategy guide.

Weapons and armor will no longer degrade with use. Instead, the game concentrates on creating new armor and improving existing items.
Dunno if this was mentioned before, but Pete Hines mentioned this in his twitter.
