I'm sure this is common but I'm very happy with how my Lucien turned out in Tomodachi Life

a few months ago I tried to replay Oblivion, but ran into a uh...problem.

Everything was going ok, I was having fun, I was beating up low level creatures - then I leveled up (I can't remember exactly which level, but still relatively low), and all of a sudden I couldn't fight the same goblins I'd been easily beating literally a few moments before?

It made the game unplayable because I was getting slaughtered by everything, and I have no idea why or what happened 😭 and i definitely don't remember having this problem the first time I played

[urjorad]

oblivion has a difficulty slider so if the game difficulty is not to your liking you can lower it to a place you like ^-^; (and yes enemies scale with your level)

Thinking about an Oblivion bug that is the perfect demonstration of how that game was a disaster

There is a quest where an evil person in the mages guild instructs you to go into a well to retrieve a ring. When you go there the ring is on a corpse (the previous receiver of this quest) and it is a ring of encumberment, which leaves you unable to move and makes you drown if you pick it up without the inventory space for it. Upon most people getting the ring they will be encumbered and forced to drop it. One of the two obvious things to do here is put the ring back on the corpse and go do something else until you have enough inventory space to try the quest again. You can not complete the quest by knowing what is going on, you have to actually have the ring.

In a few days the corpse will disappear with the ring and the quest will be uncompletable, softlocking the entire mages guild progression (one of the game's bigger sidequests).

Here is a list of things that had to go wrong for this bug to occur.

The quest programmer had to not think of this happening and program in an exception for this corpse.

The QA had to not test one of the most obvious things a player would do in that situation and would be obvious may occur knowing how corpses work.

The programming design team had to not have created a system in which important quest items would stop corpses from disappearing if they're carrying them.

The programming design team had to not have created a system where manually placed corpses, as opposed to those of NPCs you've killed, do not despawn.

The programming design team had to have not created some other system for acquiring important quest items that the player has, by some unpredicted manner, fucked up and lost permanently.

I can only say this about Bethesda games I played (I stopped at Fallout 3) but these games have a special level of fucked in their development in order for bugs like this to happen, in my opinion.

[urjorad]

I swear this is not just me being biased because Oblivion is my favorite game, but I find the hypothetical steps every player would take to be wrong. The ring weighs 150, meaning it’s impossible to not have enough inventory space for it unless you are affected by a disease that lowers your strength.

Most people would go “ok well I’m not leaving and coming back later, I’ll just drop some of my weapons so I’m light enough to move again” and go get their stuff as soon as they’re done with the ring (or use a potion or spell of feather, they are doing a mage’s guild quest after all).

Despite this I do also agree that it sucks that there is a way to softlock an entire quest, especially if you’re on console and can’t use commands to fix it.

hi!! i have an un-named nord female if your up for the task!! she is kind of a punch-first-ask-questions-never gal. major adhd. once fought a wolf with a kitchen fork and won. tall, strong, and terribly handsome. a female himbo if I’ve ever seen one. any suggestions?

First thing that popped into my head was Birna, which is a proper name and it means female bear!

[urjorad]

I’ve got an unnamed Nord if you want to help name! He’s ambitious and always looks out for his little sister, but his ambition leads him to tragedy in the end.

How about Hlifur (hlee-fer)? I derived it from the Icelandic word for shielding/protecting, "hlífa" but changed it so it would be applicable as a name :) If you want to focus more on the ambitious part you can maybe use Metnar, which I derived from the Icelandic word for ambition, “metnaður”!

[urjorad]

If anybody needs help naming Nord characters, I’m fluent in Icelandic and can give some neat nouns/adjectives to name your Nords (for instance, Heimskr from Skyrim’s name just means Stupid)!

Just send me an ask/message me with your Nord’s personality/identifying traits and I’ll give you a couple of names you could give them :)
