The only thing stopping me from playing oblivion is the way your character looks like he's trying to run on ice. It's the same in fallout 3.Why doesn't bethesda realize it looks stupid and fix it? Why would they even make it like that in the first place?

No, I played fallout in 1st person obviously. I have't played oblivion yet, I saw my friend playing it and that's the first thing I noticed. Other than the way characters mouths don't match what they are saying at all. It just sucks that you are pretty much forced to play it in 1st person because of the dumb animations.

Ahm, no you're not. You're forced to play from the 1st person perspective in Call of Duty. Not Oblivion.

So you're not going to play Oblivion because of the running animation? Just play in first person and enjoy the game.

i think everyone is missing the point... He doesnt like the running animations and i agree they do look bad, but bjd you gotta think about how big these games are and how much they have going on. Can you really blame them for making the running animation the way they did? I would much rather run like an ice skater then play a sucky game. Thats just my though.

Thanks, finally. I too would rather overlook a few flaws for a great gamebut would fixing the running animation really take up that much that it would effect the rest of the game?

When will you people learn that sarcasm doesn't work when you can't hear someone's tone? On topic, I certainly agree, the majority of the character animations in Oblivion-engine games suck. If you want presentation, look somewhere else, the greatness of these games comes from content pure and simple.

You're wrong, it does work when the point being made is ridiculously obvious. Just like when he answered me with an ironic commentary. So, unless you're insanally dumb, you can always get it.

IMO the game is supposed to be played in FP view, the TP view is just for seeing how your character looks when you get a new weapon or armor.

Just take both. It will save us a couple of pages of sarcasm, irony and laughter... On a second thought, take none, cause I'm ROFLMAO here, and I'd REALLY wish to go on like this!

I know graphics don't make a game. I still play my N64. I was just wondering why they couldn't fix it. It doesn't even matter. I got the game and I'm going to play it in FP so relax.
