Ok, so I downloaded it on steam because it was only 9$ for the weekend. But it lags so much and it crashes a lot. This is on low graphics, even though i have plenty for medium or even high (I can easily play half life 2 on full (HDR not applied), but this game is so weird. Because if I turn the resolution down it lags more. Anyone else having these issues? Or can anyone tell me a way to force the game to only use one core on my processor instead of trying to use two, because I read on the steam forums that the game gets worse with multicore processors.

go to task manager, right click on the audiosurf process, click "set affinity" then untick one of the cores.

The game's pretty bad anyways. Basically just an Oblivion clone with horrendously awful voice acting.

The game play is boring, except when people walk out of trees and call you a wench haha. But cheating and getting to a really high level to kill dragons with the spear of destiny is fun. BTW its only 10$ for today on steam.

Gothic 3 is also like Oblivion, but is a great game, minus the easy combat (as in you can click away and hack up monsters with no problem, unless you are fighting a pack).

I'd still be playing it now, but I lost my disk. I think it might have fell through my floor boards :\

Get Gothic 3.

You can also get starcraft for $10. Man, you really could've gotten more than your money's worth

I have 2 worlds, Its a potentially good game, I bought this game last summer when i was in Russia, it is know there to under a nickname "oblivion on steroids" it was even written on the cover of the box! Even though the game is potentially good, the graphics are stunning and i really like the grass, it seemes like this game is an oblivion wannabe that was slapped together in about a year opposed to 6 years oblivion was in development.

mounted combat and horses in Two worlds were so much better than in oblivion,

some of the more annoying things about the game is the way detail fades in and out with this horrible pixely dissolve type mechanics. Why couldn't they just have it fade in and out like in other games, much less annoying. unrealistic amount of monsters everywhere you go they usually outnumber you and kill you. I have no problem with running away from battles often at lower level, but for the main character who claims to be an experienced freelance mercenary (or a bounty hunter, i forgot) this just makes him look like a toughguy wannabe wuss/liar and a hypocrite if you are forced to run away from a band of three goblins. One more thing id like to point out is there are like goblins right outside of town gates, What kind of town management would allow goblins outside of towns gates (there isnt even any gate there, anyone can walk in 24/7) to make things worse, the town doesn't even have any town guards or any kind of security force, just 2 mercenaries and a bunch of farmers (there is also a merchant)

also, the world feels too small for some reason

when I looked on the box it bragged about being open ended and didn't even acknowledge the existence of oblivion.

I am sure, that engine is capable of better games than 2 worlds. i think there might be a sequel or something. and i think it was made to compete with oblivion and failed.

Burn the blasphemer! Burn Him!

I kinda hope they make the 5 elder scrolls game a mix of all the previous lands they made like, cyrodil, morrorwind, and the others from the first and second games. Or even an MMO like that would be sweet.

Elder scrolls will never be an mmo. That would just ruin the whole idea of Tamriel which seems like a real place with real people and real events taking place. I would feel horrible if one day tamriel would be filled with n0085 and pwnrZ and the rest of the MMO crap out there will give a bad name to tamriel and elder scrolls.

NO MMO! BAD FOR THE SERIES!!!
yay a fifth one!
but they should take the whole land of cyrodil and put it into one game. even if it is 25 or so gigs to install.
My maxtor 500gb external harddrive can take on anybody!

(my next rpg I'm making is that big anyway)

I hope the next game will be skyrim or black marsh. or simmerset isle.

in my opinion dark elves were probably the coolest race in tes3 morrowind, then they were ruined in oblivion. the cool dunmer voices were replaced by snobby and uncool and wimpy voices they were also fattened up in oblivion. In morrowind all of them looked skinny and anorexic which made them look all badass. And the oblivion lost those awesome hair the morrowind dunmer had.

I think morrowind was better than oblivion by far. Im hoping the next game is in black marsh, i think the argonians are the coolest.

I think everyone who makes an RPG like oblivion should be required to have one of those compasses, or else it takes too long to find anything. I can't get anywhere in morrorwind because of that haha.

I agree the compass was nice, but morrowind had better story and writing. the overall quality was just better (gameplay wise).

i find morrowind without compass much more interesting, You actually have to ask around and listen to directions carefully to find the place.
