>actual RPG combat >even horseback riding is determined by stats >kickass rock soundtrack >dense overworld >protagonist who spouts cheesy one liners >not a nigger in sight >tons of enemy variety >tons of weapon/armour variety >worldbuilding is present in the dialogue and interactions instead of needing to read a shit ton of ingame history books <buggy piece of shit but still less bugs than Oblivion <bad voice acting, but again not any worse than Oblivion <human characters are cross eyed and stiff but still don't look as uncanny as Oblivion's potato faces Why did people hate this game so much?
>protagonist who spouts cheesy one liners That's why. Fixed protagonist.
>>6037 I love the psychopathic cackling when I slaughter my enemies.

>not a nigger in sight But what if i want niggers in my game so i can murder them all?
I was told it ran like shit and kept stuttering whenever you hit an enemy. Didn't play it myself though so I got no idea.
>>6040 Then you need to await patiently for the upcoming title for the Elder's Scroll franchise, set in the vast land of Hammerfell, it's got 15x the niggers for you to slay, and it just works.

>>6040 >>6042 The niggers are all essential NPCs that cannot be permanently killed, only momentarily stunned.
>>6036 >why couldn't a eurojank new ip compare to Oblivion in popularity It was a big budget sequel to an already well regarded series. It really isn't fair to compare them. >>6041 I remember it not running too well on top of being kinda jank in general (this was on the 360). That said, I don't remember too much but I'm pretty sure it was more good than bad.
>>>/vb/ The rapefugees have arrived.
It had flaws but it was nowhere near as terrible as people made it out to be.
>>6046 The flaws are nothing compared to the trash coming out these days. It left a bad taste in my mouth when I first played it because of the poor presentation and steep difficulty curve near the beginning, but once you cheese the game and become an unstoppable demigod it gets really fun.
>>6036 >Non-Japanese game Automatically shit.

>>6036 This game's reputation is interesting. In Europe it's seen as an absolute classic, in USA it's hated pretty widely. I think this because in EU it was being compared to Gothic. But it released not long after Oblivion, and for some reason in the US it was being widely compared to that even though it has little to do with the game and couldn't have possibly been influenced by it. You still see that to this day, this is a video about the game from just last year. Also, as this came out in 2007 a lot of Americans played it on Xbox, and Two Worlds is very much not a console RPG. I've heard the 360 port was quite poor and that absolutely must have contributed to its bad reputation state-side.

Hurr durr Ohblyveon killer nearly twenty years later they're still saying this shit. I'm glad you made this thread OP because that fucking Jabo video and its thumbnail has been in my head since I saw it and I wanted to bitch about it. Two Worlds has a POSITIVE rating on Steam, so dishonest.
>>6037 The best thing about the Skyrim protagonist is no dialogue; Not including shouting in dragon. >In RPGs the you either match the MC's mood and dialogue exactly to the player's expectation (of immersion) or make MC shut the fuck up. A non-silent MC should have dialogue and intro to properly present their demeanor without confusion to the player. Witcher 3 did character presentation very well, but geralt is already a fairly fixed role that is kess mutable by the player. If the RPG is truely 'do what you will' no pre-defined character will do, and therefore the MC should SHUT THE FUCK UP. >Geralt was Fine

>>6049 I fucking hate Bethesdafags, to this day you can still see comments on Fallout 3s trailers shitting on Fallout 1 and 2 for being isometric and turn based. 90% of them are casual Xboxniggers with no love for RPGs.

Using Oblivion as an argument with how outdated that fucking engine was & I'm surprised it got stapled together as it did considering what I've learned about Skyrims development It's lol worthy but who really cares, go learn about a good game I played both of these both of them have pretty much totally different mechanics while having similar systems in play. The sequel only had one quest I actually liked & it was about helping some slut. i will give you one thing both games are buggy as fuck messes, I barely used horses in either game which I think the reason was, they'd end up dying on me for no reason or something due to bugs I don't remember.
>>6049 >video about Oblivion >Skyrim armor
>>6054 Skyrim is the COD of RPGs

>>6052 >>6054 His entire fucking channel is like this, he even did the same thing with TW2. At least that game has actually mixed reviews. What is it with Bethesdrones? They were just like this with Skyrim too, every fucking game was Skyrim; Witcher 3 was Skyrim, Dark Souls was Skyrim, I swear Far Cry 3 was heavily touted as Skyrim. They remind me a lot of Blizzdrones.
>>6057 >They remind me a lot of Blizzdrones. That's exactly what they are, just pure blind corporate loyalty. It's a cult.

>>6057 >I swear Far Cry 3 was heavily touted as Skyrim That was a retarded journalist calling it "skyrim with guns". The people repeating it were mocking the journalist for being a moron.
>>6036 >thread is actually about a video game >mods move it to /vb/ I guess /v/ really isn't about video games anymore is it?
>>6036 Isn't that game notorious for having jap niggers?
>>6085 It's actually /vg/ in disguise
