Pie™ Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Well, today they launched this site... We are pleased to announce that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is currently in development for PC and future generation consoles. In development since 2002, Oblivion is another leap forward in role-playing with its combination of freeform gameplay and cutting-edge graphics. Apparently the American magazine GameInformer is gonna have an exclusive on this highly anticipated game Since the magazine is only coming out overseas, I hope a swampie with a big heart and a fat wallet can get it and scan it for us non-americans Oh, I almost forgot; W00T!

Cat people and lizard people are not exactly original ideas. They've been around forever. Also, the Elder Scrolls 'verse is older (Arena released 1994) than Everquest (began development 1996, released at least a year after that, not sure though) Who's ripping off of who? Finally, those screens are from the Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, not "Morrowind IV". (And Elder Scrolls games are RPGs, not super expensive monthly-fee MMORPGs...I wonder which I'll be getting ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And Elder Scrolls games are RPGs, not super expensive monthly-fee MMORPGs...I wonder which I'll be getting ) True, but you've gotta admit; those models look suspiciously like eachother Anyways, they're only models, since they're 2 completely different games, why should it matter?

Redwing Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 I really don't think either game copied each other. I mean, c'mon. Lizard/cat head on a humanoid body...you could think that up on your own much easier than bothering to copy it. Anyway Morrowind had those races in previous games (Arena, I think, and definitely Daggerfall (1996), which, as I said, are older than Everquest. ) So if anything Everquest was copying them. So there! Btw, anyone been following the countdown splash pages? Eight Seven Six Five Four Three Two One Final Interesting, I must say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it dont matter, but the devs of the models could have been more originals, like when they did Morrowind III Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is so named because it takes place in Morrowind, home of the Dark Elves or Dunmer. ^_^ There is: Elder Scrolls I: Arena Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall [battlespire, Redguard] Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind And now- Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion For which we have exactly one screenshot. Really, if you've played Morrowind, Kajhit look very different from those Vah Shir [that model is the only one with those black teeth things), and Argonians generally look different as well (more like anoles than iguanas, and they're often horned and frilled)...and more importantly their histories and details are very different (and more interesting IMHO) Originally posted by TiE 23 *Cough, cough* thats gonna cost some money.... *cough* But no, its not allowed. *Wink wink - WINK WINK* TiE *slips you $100* Wait...I think I may be ripping myself off here...
