    Es un juego único, existirán muchos RPG y hay muchos buenos pero oblivion es una de las vivas representaciones de RPG, un mundo grande con muchas cosas que vivir, enemigos con los que luchar es una gran batalla, y ciudades tan grandiosas con un esplendor de maravilla, oblivion es y será uno de los mejores videojuegos de todos los tiempos te guste o no

    Probably the best balance between Morrowind and Skyrim. More content than the former and more depth than the latter. The Shivering Isles DLC is outstanding. My personal GOAT

    16 yr old game is refreshing to play, a break from all the high tech glitz & glamour often seen in today's games. The mechanics & elements of this game are unique for its time.
    Well worth playing!

    Even after over a decade of Skyrim, I'd say Oblivion is still worth playing. Skyrim is undoubtedly better-designed as a game, but Oblivion feels more like a fantasy-adventure to me.

    Hands down one of my top favorite video games of all time. Memorable quests, music, landmarks, and of course you can't forget about the memes.

    Great FPS game. Graphics are beautiful, especially considering the release date. Story line is a fav. The DLCs are great story lines as well. For those familiar with the TES series, a plus for Oblivion, that I was sorry they lost in Skyrim, the merchants do not run out of money. Comes in handier than it may sound.

    I find it very addicting so in that sense I wouldn't recommend it. But yeah, it's a great game. Buggy as heck, but a lot of fun.

    Old and buggy, but still good. I played TES V Skyrim and got deeply immersed in the lore of The Elder Scrolls long before I ever even considered playing this game, but I really love the added context you get when exploring Cyrodiil and going through the main Quest. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys Skyrim and it's lore and especially to those who are still new to the series as whole.

    Graphics are obviously outdated, as this is now a very old game. However, if you're an RPG fan or Bethesda fan in general, you can't NOT play this. The plot's great, the writing and scripting of the quests are so fun and have twists and you'll definitely come back to this game time and time again to play. Fun game overall. Worth a play!

    "I don’t know you and I don’t care to know you"

    10/10 dark brotherhood is one of the best quest lines I've ever seen

    I've had TES IV: Oblivion GOTY ever since it came out and this was my teenage-years' favorite game; of course, this is still one of my favorite games. There are some strange things in the game (like how guards can detect a crime, sometimes, about 1 km away--just check the construction kit) that make parts of it funny.

    The story is good and there are quite a few side quests to go with,    I've had TES IV: Oblivion GOTY ever since it came out and this was my teenage-years' favorite game; of course, this is still one of my favorite games.

    The story is good and there are quite a few side quests to go with, all with that funny "Oblivion touch". I strongly recommend to play this one!    … Expand

    One of the best games of all time in my opinion, When i was young and this game came out, it was huge. I feel like it opened up the door for games of this nature, Would highly recommend, even in 2022.

    There is so much to do in this dense open world. As a big fan of the Elder Scrolls series, IV remains my favorite.

    The fundamental game is just so epic, the world so vast, the options so varied, that you'll find more quality gameplay shoehorned into this disc than just about any other game I can think of. But the version sitting on store shelves right now is inferior to its brethren on other platforms. So I can really only recommend it if you don't own a 360 or a PC capable of running the game well.

    Oblivion on PS3 is one of the biggest and most impressive role-playing games in history, and you owe it to yourself to play it if you haven’t already experienced it elsewhere.

    What this game lacks for in screen resolution, it makes up for in its excellent open world, beautiful art design, and grand architecture.
