One of the ultimate RPG’s of our lifetime. It is an experience you won’t soon forget and possibly one that might never end.

It all comes down to the freedom to play the game any way you want, and that is something that Oblivion does amazingly well.

The bar for the next generarion of RPG's has been set. [May 2006, p.92]

A game so vast and varied that it would probably take hundreds of hours of play to see and experience everything, if that is possible at all.

A wonderfully crafted world with plenty of things to see, do, achieve and kill. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has absolutely everything. An essential purchase.

It's got plenty to recommend it, but apart from its unprecedented visual achievements this is not a life-changing, essential or fully "next-gen" experience. It's a good, solid RPG that doesn't break the mold but instead makes one that's bigger and shinier.

A dizzying array of player freedom and sandbox exploration. Rough around the edges, and probably could have used more structure, but what works is pretty good.

i loved it but it became kind of annoying at some point and the prices for items are really high especially enchants but all in all it was still fun

The game that started the microtransactions insanity. Nothing special, just another timesink.

This game isn't good. The plot is very shallow and predictable.
The combat is trash because of mobs autoleveling.
The oblivion realm is boring and tedious.
