Elder Scrolls 4: Oblvion Review

Last but not least, healing is a pain in the ass. Bedrolls and hotels are few and far between, and creating potions for healing is not possible until several hours through the game. Players must trade for potions or hope they run into the scarce herb aloe vera. After casting spells for long enough, a curing spell is an option. But then how do you increase your magic bar?

Flaws aside, Oblivion is a great, fantastic, fabulous, awesome game. Sitting down to play it has been one of my great joys during the last month. Not many games can achieve a perfect score in every category, but this game is so good that nearly everyone will enjoy it. Oblivion delivers what Elder Scrolls and RPG fans were hoping, so what are you waiting for?
