Yes, yes, I can already hear the bitching about yet another Oblivion thread. Well, you guys shut the fuck up and get the fuck out. Not everything revolves around your pretty view of the world, you cocksuckers.

Anyways, this blog is written by a... well, I suppose not really a friend, a chum, perhaps. We've had some, ah, disagreements in regards to Oblivion before, which I'll admit, I might've been wrong about here or there. [Granted, Time's taken it's toll, I don't actually remember the arguments, just that we had them. I'm sure you understand.] I find it rather interesting reading about his experiences with the game, so I thought I'd share. [Besides, where would we be without sharing, comrades? Surely working as the slaves to some capitalistic pig!]

...And The Horse I Rode In On
When I first started playing, I exited the sewers near the stables outside the Imperial City. Since I was playing a thief, I thought I'd steal a horse...

I love how the blog basically dissects all of the major fuck-ups in Oblivion.. the auto-levelling, the screwy AI, the f'ed up theft/justice system, etc. THe writer is totally aware of all of this, but he apparently just loves the game too much to care:

At any rate, I'm having a blast with Oblivion. I'd write more about it, but I'm having too much fun actually playing it to stop; by the time I think of something that's happened that I should write about, something else has happened.


Why have standards fallen so low?

This topic reminds me of the book 120 Days of Sodom for more than one reason.
