Oblivion has already become redundant for me. Ground breaking my shiny metal ass.

It also doesn't seem to have as much choice of "play how you want" either. Since I was unable to do half the things I wanted.

And Kym has to pay for silly upgrades like horse armour!

Bethesda have turned into the developers that I can't really take kindly upon anymore...weird they are.

I'm digging Oblivion a lot more now that I made a new character. I'm also avoiding the whole Kvatch thing, since that's what kicks off all the portals opening, and shutting those things down got old fast. Also, I took a look at the strategy guide, and one of the noteworthy tips I found was that the game isn't Morrowind...giving your character Main Skills like Acrobatics and Athletics isn't a good idea, because whereas in Morrowind, levelling up fast meant more HP and magicka, in Oblivion it means tougher beasties that can't be effectively combatted with jumping on them.

Anyway...yeah, I originally had something to relate this to your post, but I forgot. Eh, I guess I'm suggesting ya try a new character concept.

Oh, one last thing...when ya get to the sewer exit, where you finalize your character? Cancel out of it, back up, and save a new game. Congratulations, you don't have to do the opening tutorial anymore.

I just completed my first Suikoden V game. It took around 62 hours.... I swear, everytime you think the game is about to end ... it doesn't. I missed 11 stars and will start a new game to get them all tomorrow sometime. :P

??Minor Spoiler??

Or Bethesda could have done the smart thing and provided an option for faster char gen in the first place.

I agree about Suikoden game, it had tons of unexpected twists.
With Sialeads for example that was sooo unexpected!

I never played Suikoden series ever but after playing Suikoden V i want to get myself other parts of it.

I played around 50 - 60 hours so game should end soon, i think.Anyway my monster character there is Miakis, she simply dodges everything and counter attackes everyone and has max level weapon.So Miakis > all.

And yes btw new Tomb Raider is good unfortunately a bit short.

You actually used one of those things? I never did because they aren't stars. *shrug*
