The game has no ending you just stop playing when you've had enough. There is a main storyline however that you can accomplish by the time your level 4. (Don't! When you close oblivion gates you can collect Sigil stones to add magic abilities to your weapons and armor.)
The land is VAST, and the side quests are unlimited.
This game is a DM's dream come true.
Unlike many D&D style games this game utilizes rogue abilities quite a bit. I played a sword swinging barbarian (shocker, huh), yet many a time I dropped off my sheets of heavy armor for light robes and snuck around in the dark with a dagger and a spell scroll.
Story Line: Which one? Like I said it's true D&D. You can join the mages guild and do 50 quests and missions for them; dito for fighters guild, assassins guild, different town watches, vampires, and hundreds of others (fighting to arena champion was fun).Didn't give it more points cuz there was ZERO plot twists. Even tho it kinda sets you up for a few of them
Fun Factor: there's enough variety to entertain for a while. You physically have to pick locks and swing sword/ax combos while trying to get your shield combo's in. You collect ingredients and brew/invent your own potions. Decent game all around. Only thing i didn't like was the lack of decent magical item loads. You unlock weapons as you get higher levels but they should have put more into it.Graphics: Too many choices on exactly how you want to model your face!All in all not bad. You need a half decent computer to run the game anyways so you'll probably enjoy the graphics. Decently filled in houses and dungeons.
Weapons: ARRGG!!!!Frustrating!
Theres only 1 type of weapon in each material category and they get boring. If I'm gonna wait till level 18 to get an obsidian weapon they should have put more time and effort into a few different types of them (not just Obsidian: dagger, short sword, longsword, claymore. In the sword categories) You can add customized stones to your weapons (eg: +6 fire damage or -50 to stamina etc). Was disappointed to say the least.
