As with Dragon Age: Origins, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a game that is way outside of my comfort zone. Other than the fact that it is a first-person RPG, all I know is that it’s made by Bethesda, that it is/was really buggy, and that a lot of people love this 100+ hour game.
I never would have picked this up on my own, but I received the PlayStation 3 version as a Christmas present. I’m not sure what the impetus was to get me this, other than the fact that I like video games, but I always appreciate the thought when someone gets me a video game as a gift.
