I bought all five games for 25 bucks on sale once and made the mistake of starting with Arena. I actually got pretty far into it but then I saved in an impossible situation and my last save was way too far back.

Arena is decent as a pretty simple dungeon crawler at heart but Ultima Underworld already existed so I'm not sure why anyone ever played it. Battlespire is good though

Bolverkur posted:I played Morrowind first and I think it's an all-time GOTY and a unique gem of a game, then Oblivion came and blew my nutsack off with all the cool poo poo that's going on there, and then there's Skyrim, which was fun for a while but just doesn't come close to the other two games. Morrowind and Oblivion are both just better than Skyrim. same exactly, may Todd have mercy on our souls lmao

Bicyclops posted:i think in the end i actually like oblivion better but it's basically unplayable without mods so i'll probably never go back to it. I think some of the ways Oblivion is "worse" make it more interesting than Skyrim in hindsight now that I understand both games are heavily flawed. The hazy, incredibly generic Fantasy realm, the potato-faced dopes who float around and awkwardly babble nonsense, the janky physics, it feels like you're in a dream.

The hazy, incredibly generic Fantasy realm, the potato-faced dopes who float around and awkwardly babble nonsense, the janky physics, it feels like you're in a dream. one thing that sort of works for oblivion somehow is that besides three main characters, it's like the same 10 voice actors who probably did half of it drunk in like one take. there's something about skyrim hiring way more people whose talent levels are all over the place that's off-putting. like wes johnson is there just doing his "WECOME... TO THE ARENA!" voice through a halfass filter as a dremora lord and lynda carter is doing the same, cardboard reading she always does for about half of the housecarls, but then there's like Enn Reitel and Gideon Emery giving 110 percent. also they told all the guards to do some kind of terrible accent.

Yeah it owns. I read somewhere (I think a developer twitter thread) that when the voice actors were given their scripts, each line was printed in alphabetical order instead of in any kind of useful structure, so they had no context for any of their lines as they were saying them. That's why all the spoken dialogue sounds like the audio version of the uncanny valley.

one of ralph cosham's lines as it's delivered definitely says "oh, i flubbed it. can i do that take again?" or something similar and they left it in the game, but i can't find it by googling and it's apparently been six years since i finished my complete playthrough of oblivion
