I'm gonna make it a yearly thing around this time of year, man brought so many laughs to my life and is still bringing them, the least I can do is devote some to his memory. F mitten squad, this is where the real game begins homie
but every city has their own criminial record. and i think it was Bruma guards, so he (which he didn't) could have gotten a fine for Bruma. Being arrested in the Capital was kinda weird xD
@@udozocklein6023 nope oblivion didn't have that system all towns and cities shared a bounty the only difference is shivering isles has it's own bounty
@@majestictwizzler1564 I enjoy oblivion much more than skyrim, played it for countless hours. though, usually i dont get caught doing crimes... and if i know i will be, i stash all my stolen goods and pay the fine immediately. I never realized that doing so prevented me from getting confused somewhere else lmao
He made a few more mistakes. I notices he said “elder scrolls 4” when he should have just said cyrodil, and he mistakenly called some mythic dawn cultists “daedra.”
“I never feel powerful because the enemies never stop leveling with me.” A common complaint about this game. Did he even ever get a different bow besides the starter one?
The leveled lists are kind of dumb in the game. When every single bandit wears full glass armor and all the marauders are clad in full daedric sets - god knows how they got that - the game still throws steel and dwarven bows at you. Even then, all enemies way over lvl20 still carry iron arrows for some reason. The only reliable way to get a very likely upgrade is to find Hatred's Soul in an oblivion gate. Other than that chances are almost impossible to find anything better than a steel bow before you finish the game without sidequests.
You should try to play with a unleveled mod, it's like a different game. It's a good experience if you know these games well and want a real challenge.
Yup, pretty common complaint. You really don't get "poweful" until you either decide to lower the difficult to where everything is cake, or get to a high enough level where the enemies you commonly see start hitting level caps. The latter takes fucking forever.
As much as it divides us, and that all our bitching has lead to Bethesda focusing on money, the variation between what we like in the games is good. If the whole “the game you are playing is an elder scroll” meta-narrative is taken to heart then it is something to be embraced. By definition of what an elder scroll is it is most likely that each game is an entirely separate version of Nern. We should be glad that we hate and love each game in different ways. Just the same as the various people’s of the world find new ways to love and hate each other throughout the different eras.
Yeah so a few things: Yeah the game's level scaling is rather brutal because it scales much closer to your level than Skyrim does. Doesn't mean you can't get powerful though, magic is the answer. Please for the love of GOD, don't give up Azura's Star on any future playthroughs. The Mace of Molag Bal literally doesn't work, and outside of that, the relics in Oblivion are so much more powerful than in Skyrim. Thieves Guild is very rewarding, it gets you a mask that lets you kill anyone without suffering any reputation penalties. This is important because Knights of the Nine stuff doesn't work unless your negative reputation is zero. The Arena gives you a lot of stuff that doesn't scale with level, making it great early on, and useless later on. Fingers of the Mountain is a wonderful spell, although it does the Skyrim thing where it scales to your level when you obtain it, and stays there. Ghosts are not like normal enemies, they can only be killed with magic, enchanted weapons, Daedric weapons, and silver. If you see a unicorn in the field, I recommend not killing it, it sometimes bugs Hircine's quest. Wearing armor actually makes magic weaker. There's a hidden stat on armor that determines how much magic is affected. You can use glitches involving magic and enchantments to permanently increase your stats so high that you can yeet anyone into the shadow realm with a single punch, because stat increases do not increase enemy stats, only levels do that. Levelling and stats are so strangely scaled that to go into it would take hours, but check UESP for info on that, it really does matter. The bounties are from killing allied NPCs, and the message when one was killed is a flag for Lucien Lachance to invade you while you sleep, to invite you to the Dark Brotherhood
Yeah the ultimate build in this game is a level 1-5 Breton wizard with 100 in all magic skills wearing regular clothes enchanted to give 100% reflect damage and 100% resist magic and casting custom spells which, on top of their intended effect, fortify your magicka enough to chain cast infinitely.
Skyrim has pretty much just as much arrow drop as in Oblivion, but they have the reticle zeroed in to about 50 meters or so. You might have to aim higher or lower depending on your distance to the target, but in Oblivion, since the reticle isn't zeroed to any distance, you may have to only aim above your target depending on distance.
Nice! Enjoyed this! I have already beaten this in a single run without taking any damage or any hits (reset if I get hit) I enjoyed the insight in this though!
04:26 its just that all other primary bethesda games are set in one wateland or another. fallout 3/new vagas/4 go without saying. morrowind is volcano ash sandstorm isle, skyrim is a frozen/brown vegetationless wasteland (except falkreath/the Rift(vegationfull but orange is close to brown tho))
Fun Fact: You can get a team of 13-15 immortal NPC companions (all at the same time! Private Army!) in this game if you never go to their individual quest locations. Warning: Be very careful about friendly-fire, because if you hit one of them, they will all go nuts..... Disclaimer: Some companions require a console command to make them "Essential" (like Mazoga the Orc, or the Dark Brotherhood Initiate). Worth it though. If you don't want to cheat that much, just do the mission to team up with the Germaine Twins. Use Console Commands to give them each some good weapons and armour, and then go have fun. They are a 2-for-1 companion as long as you never take them home, and they generally don't care if you hit them accidentally. Just use a charm spell on them occasionally if you do; problem solved Skyrim wishes it could be as great as Oblivion. It can't, because you can't have an army of 13+ minions fighting for you at once while you duplicate infinite items and put multiple enchantments on weapons and just generally be GOD. The serious downside to this game is that enemies level up with you, so essentially the whole point of the game is to max out your stats at the lowest level possible; I once spent over an hour trying to kill a Goblin Warlord when I was Level 80 (no joke!) because that's how this game works......Seriously folks, Goblin Warlords are the toughest enemies in video game history if you are a high level!
Race:argonian (takes away drowning damage) focus:magic Sign:Thief tag skills:sneak,one handed.illusion.light armor,acrobatics,archery,conjuration. Complete the starting mages guild quests to gain access to arcane university then enchant a set of gloves boots greaves and a breastplate with 20% chameleon then enchant a ring necklace of either fortify agility or acrobatics doesnt matter which its to mitigate fall damage then either grind one handed and use and enchanted dagger and and get infinite sneak attacks because your enemy literally cant see you(add an enchanted shield that either absorbs or reflects magic just in case you catch a stray fireball etc or grind conjuration to spam summons to fight for you while you are perma invised or grind illusion and just paralyze everything and just run straight past. There ya go one easy build to breeze through oblivion completely untouchable after you get it set up.
Nice video! I actually have an idea, that I'm not sure if you've heard. Are you able to beat Fallout (Your choice of game), with only 1 in each SPECIAL stat, for the entire game? You have no high tier perks, you have terrible carry weight, and little AP points. I think it'd be a fun challenge!
Honestly archery in these games before the bow became a sniper rifle was more satisfying. And the fact you could cast spells without unequipping your weapon.
Oblivion, oh mai GAWHH. The memories flow back into me like cheese and wine, except the cheese is fermented and the wine is apple cider. Well, at least there are only two major DLCs, The Shivering Isles and the Knights of.... some table that's not Round. Paul would love to be a mad God, surrounded by cheese though. Ratatouille Paradise.
Mabye with a follower, but honestly I'm not sure. At the beginning you don't have to loot gundar/a chest, you can just click it and exit without looting and the quest will progress.
My grandpa's brother gave me a laptop when I was 8 or so. Oblivion was the only game it came with. I never got past the first rats... I've lost the disc and can't be bothered to find it. Similar to Empire Earth, which I played when I was 7ish on my dad's Windows XP/Vista computer. That disc has been scratched to hell and back.
This is such a post COVID-19 youtube video. At least this dude has the spirit of creativity on his side.. as inconsequential as it may seem to the artist... we the audience a certainly grateful :)
Its always interesting to see how much more in depth oblivion is than skyrim or even fallout where you cant just skip past like 20 quests to get somewhere or clear things out early, you actually have to go on long treks and do shit.
Can you beat the existential dread after realizing you spent actual money on a purely cosmetical DLC, that was so buggy that half the time it didn't work, all while trying to validify the purchase to your friends without taking damage

Most kidney stones are calcium stones, usually in the form of calcium oxalate, uric acid stones are known to form on occasion if one loses fluids too fast, but the accelerated pissing from caffeine is not enough in pretty much all cases. Calcium Oxalate is more a cause of, y'know, Vitamin D and things containing it, you're more likely to get kidney stones from excessive tofu than excessive sugar from an energy drink
You accidentally did something intelligent by rushing through at a low level, since if you got to the level threshold where adult Clanfears instead of the Runts show up, you'd hit a pretty miserable wall since any damage done to them would cause some reflected damage to the player.
They scared the shit out of me the first time I tried to kill an adult one in man on dinosaur dog combat. It was my first playthrough on 360 so many years ago and so I had fucked my stats all up so my health was pretty low.
We miss you Paul, you made us all happy with your content for so many years so thank you, We'll cherish the memories you gave us forever. RIP MittenSquad.
I remember when I was a kid seeing Oblivion for the first time and it had amazing graphics and looked fun af, I didn't have an Xbox 360 at the time only a PS2 and couldn't wait to play it. then I met a friend in middle school who's stepdad was an avid gamer and he had a 360 in his living room, I stayed up all night with my friend playing this game. it's a memory I will never forget
I’d never played an elder scrolls game before nor a game as big as oblivion and I pretty much crapped my pants the first time I left the sewers. Ive spent the rest of my life since then chasing that high.
i got a youtube advert with sean bean in it earlier and i was hoping someone would come into frame and kill him in the last moments so i didn't skip. wadsted my time :(
@@Mikelee225 Achievement hunter's Minecraft let's play series. Whenever Geoff would run a store for a challenge, that's what his store would be called.
Something I've learned the hard way on my runs through Oblivion: this game really loves throwing leveled monsters at you, even during quests, so if you decide to fuck off and say, complete the Mage's Guild Quest and level up to something considerable before going to Kvatch, the Daedra that spawn there will be absolute satan spawn and kill literally everything in their path, including AI friendlies that are still low level. You have to babysit them if you want them to survive. Even worse on escort quests, and yes Oblivion has them. It's also a complete fucking headache getting through the level when Daedroths and Storm Atronachs spawn in the place of scamps. Bethesda implemented level scaling in the laziest way possible in this game with no consideration for the consequences. Basic bitch bandits in the late game are all wearing Daedric or Glass armor, all of them, and they look amazingly out of place. Low level animals like mudcrabs or wolves become extinct in the ogre and minotaur invasion. It gets really dumb.
Oblivion is the only game I know where you can completely ruin the game and make it unplayable by leveling too many times. Not level too fast, not level incorrectly (although both of them will make the problem worse), just leveling up, no matter how optimised your character is, will make the game unplayable at some point. That's so messed up it's almost impressive
@JOHN CEASAR Seriously? More spam? There's also a very specific reason you aren't allowed to use external mods on most consoles, maybe do your research before you make a change.org petition
also, i love how you still actually PLAY the game. for ex, you say you go out of ur way to kill more ppl just for fun lol and another vid on fallout 4 you had a ton of loot that weighed a ton and you hoofed it to a town to sell it only to find it was worthless pretty much lol, I love that you still do dumb gamer shit and dont just run thru the game. thanks for the vids man
I'm pretty sure a lot of the gun wielding enemies are hitscan enemies, hell there is a boss with a hitscan shotgun, only way this would be possible is with exploits. Not going to lie tho, would love to see Mitten play VM:B
@Leon Schuring its def more of an rpg than Skyrim is. Also the quest lines in oblivion are longer than the 8 missions in Skyrim. The companions were such a letdown.
@@joshp2542 You actually feel like you've earned your titles in the guilds in Oblivion. In Skyrim you just walk in the door and they crown you king for nothing.
