Poll: The Elder Scrolls Oblivion

[inFAMOUSCowZ]

well, i made an impearal for my first time. And he was a monster, nothing could touch him. I beat the arena in one sitting, then did fighters guild. Mind you I forgot that to level up you had to sleep so i slept a lot in beds and got to like level 17. Since then i couldnt make, a character that strong, and the slider was always in the middle. Somethings ill never understand.

 

[Vrex360]

I was an Argonian because lizard people are all kinds of awesome.

Also, I mostly stuck with the main quest but I did choose Fighter's Guild to start with, solely because I needed the money.
The only two left now are Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood, both of which are being left in reserve until I have enough time to play them.

What was the first thing I did in Oblivion 4 when I first exited the sewer?

Got bored.

what did you do to make the game interesting and what was your first guild?

I tried killing a few guards until I realized that they were ever-spawning and really hard for my undeveloped character to kill. Upon retreating to a different town, I found that the guards from the previous town had phoned ahead, telling all the guards there what a dick I was. I ended up quitting before joining a guild because I was constantly under attack by wave after wave of guards...and I wasn't willing to go to prison. I ain't going back!

What Race were you?

Argonian.

 

[GnomeThief]

My very first playthrough I was a female Khajiit. After getting out of the sewers I wandered around aimlessly for awhile eventually ending up in Chorrol. From there, I accidentally stole a bowl off of Jauffrie's desk, panicked when he yelled at me, and ran away. Several more incidents like this occur and after many murders and resist arrests I end up with a 40,000 gold bounty and end up starting the game over.

Second playthrough as a male Breton I immediately worked on raising my illusion skill to 50, bought an invisibility spell, joined the Thieves Guild and started looting houses.

I just like to steal things...

 

[fuhier]

I bent the game over and made it mine. I owned everything all rare items been everywhere all shrines secret shrines everything and loved it. But as for guilds....... arena or db. But i hated how you could own the guild and get kicked perma out of it that i thought was the most retarded part of the guilds

 

[AWDMANOUT]

All of the above?

Though I did finish the Arena first.

Neither of those are options, though....

 

[Sygmist]

I got myself into the dark brotherhood by accident after some nosey farmer got all up in my business. Went to sleep, had a wtf moment when the assassin showed up and went on from there.

I kind of wish I didn't find it first though because every other guild and quest tree is downhill from the dark brotherhood.

This. The Dark Brotherhood just really can't be beat in quests. Whodunit? I mean, come on, that was pure gold. I was compelled to follow the storyline, almost as if this wasn't an open-ended game.

I also went vampire my first time 'round... and every other time after that. The acrobatics+ is lovely, and I'm too lazy to grind. ^.^

Edit: Wood Elf all the way, by the by.

 

[LordGarbageMan]

I went male Breton and didn't mess with the main story at all. I remember specifically going to red ruby cave first wearing conjurers robes, getting demolished by wolves.

 

[Dr. wonderful]

What was the first thing you did in Oblivion 4 when you first exited the sewer? what did you do to make the game interesting and what was your first guild?. What Race were you?

I was a Redguard [Male] who joined the Brotherhood and Killed everything that moved and i dabbled in Mods and stuff

Meh, That what I did...except for the mods.

Now, I'm running around as a Nord and beating people to death with my fists.

 

[matoasters]

I was a male dark elf
Joined the thieves guild to fence stuff, cleaned out the market district, then joined the Dark Brotherhood.

 

[cavemano727]

I headed to the capital. I got equipment and fought in the arena. Than went raiding dungeons and doing random quests. I was a Nord.

 

[Drexlor]

I chose an Imperial. I am a fighter, mage, and thief. My favorite guild is the thieves guild.

 

[joshuaayt]

I was a female Breton, Apprentice, mage (As usual), and TECHNICALLY joined the Mages guild first, out of need. But I didn't advance any further in the quest line during my game, just as far as the Arcane University (Now I have that mod that lets you join straight away, and use it without the recommendations!)
But then I stole a fabulous hat, and found myself in the thieves guild, invisible most of the time. Funny, that.

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

Well, I joined all guilds but my first was mages. I finished their whole questline with practically no magic which was a laugh. I was a Dark Elf Rogue as always, the distribution of skills in that class is pretty much perfect for me.

 

[Lullabye]

Male Kahjit. Ended up being an assassin typpe build, with mastery over illusion, hand to hand, etc. My first guild was, of course, the Dark Brotherhood. Though, the first person I killed that was innocent, I didn't realize. I didn't even know the dark brotherhood existed, so when Lucien showed up I kinda freaked out. My second(and only uncompleted guild) was the mages guild. I got kicked out after I started making black soul gems though(and using mages as the material needed).
*sigh*
Well, what do you expect when you give me, Speaker of the black hand, a means to create a gem which instills unfathomable power to any weapon of your choosing(except, unfortunately, for gauntlets. They only get armor buffs...)

 

[Desgardes]

I don't remember what I was the first time, or anytime, really, but the first thing I always do is grab the fingleam, then start stealing stuff. It's actually become the second thing I do, now that I think about it. The first thing I do is go to the shivering isles and make some money. Lots and lots of money.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Breton Male, playing as my custom class Warmage. I needed access to spells immediatly, so Mages Guild it was.

 

[Chicago Ted]

Who else had a character that was Champion of Cyrodiil, Gray Fox, Fighters Guild Master, Archmage, and Listener?

I did. Maybe not the top ranks, but high up in each, and I have to say, it kinda broke the game for me. It was weird knowing that my guy was head of each one. I'd have rather they amplified the bonus's of each one, then had you choose between them.
