What I meant was that oblivion is very much an RPG, and from my experience anyone who plays an RPG without prior RPG experience doesn't really get involved with the game or what it's meant to be about. That's not to say you can't get into RPG's if you haven't played them before, it's just more difficult than with other games. I could be wrong in leo's case I don't know, but that's my bet as to why he doesn't connect with the game so much.
Quote:I loved that game and I played it like it was an FPS. I marauded around the countryside killing badies and when I felt like it I engaged in the storyline. Good times, much like the way I played Fallout 3.
I don't doubt you can play the game however the fuck you want. I'm just saying some people won't get it because they may not have played anything like it before. This is certainly why people who I know don't like it. They've never played RPG's and as such they compare it to other adventure games/hack and slash games. It's a pretty good bet that if you haven't played an elder scrolls game before, or bethesda game for that matter, and play it without knowing what to expect and then ending up not liking it, it's probably because you didn't understand what the point of the game was in the first place.
An example if you will of a previous elder scrolls game:

Here the guy didn't originally like it because he didn't 'get it'. Hence my point.
All that said, he might just not like it for gameplay reasons, or storyline, or graphics or whatever else. It's just from my experience that the only people who don't like Elder Scrolls are people who don't get it.

Maybe so, but I would rape your ass on black ops
