How great could this game have been? This thread should be to list stuff they missed out on;

-The ability to "knock out" bodies and carry them into stupid places. Eg. dump someone on the very top of a steep mountain and wait until he wakes up and wets himself.
-Ability to drug peoples drinks and prank them

It gets a lower score from me because it's essentially the same game as Oblivion with a different interface.

If you say so.

This has to be one of the dumbest posts ever. Reporting it for stupidity and the fact it says absolutely nothing

Then it's fact you can't read.

hmm u can carry bodies - atleast when they are dead!

so are u asking for NPCs to wet themselves?

That's supposed to be the great thing about the Construction Set.

Everyone and their mom seems to know the "real way the game should have been".

Thanks to MODs you can actually have that in many cases.

Why won't you die!!!

reported for wasting bandwidth with inane postings - go to four chan OP

- Scaling leveling system. A level should not be as easy to get in the 90's as in the 20's.

-More recipes for food, unlockable recipes for food. Seemed obvious, as you could find recipes in New Vegas. Surprised there arent any.

-A magic system instead of a generic system. The one series that is renowned for its in-depth, customisable and endlessly varied magic and they reduce it to plasmids. Underpowered plasmids.

-A decent quest log. Havent seen one this bad since Daggerfall.

-Racial diversity. This is TES not Conan. Vvardenfell had more racial diversity and that was only open to outside colonisation for a few hundred years.

-More diversity in marriage. I dont want to marry a Nord.

-Better written quests. Dont really have to explain this one.


All in all the game seems horribly rushed and unfinished. A lot of good features cut, a lot of logically expected features not in or poorly balanced.
This could really have been the game to end all games, and it does offer some amazingly fantastic moments.
But do they weigh up against all that is lacking or oversimplified?
If it had had a Morrowind quality story, yes.
As even less actual story is given as in Oblivion, no.

Wow i never realized oblivion had dragons how stupid i missed them

Uh and I want drive-by's with charriots and arrows ......

The scary part is that I think you're actually serious.

Maybe some modder can match your insanity and do that but if Bethesda wastes a second considering wasting time with that, I swear I'll kill someone.

If you mean simply knocking people out instead of just killing them while sneaking, I'll grant you that idea has some merit. As a thief, I think this would be a nice option although I'm still fairly early into the game (10 hours) so I may be missing some advanced thief skill that's already in the game that covers this.

The rest of your post I won't comment on as others here have done an ample job doing so. If any part of the game you feel is lacking, that's what the Mod forum is for, to request a mod for whatever you think would add to the game.

With the flaming, rude posts and unnecessary comments this topic is going nowhere good.
