oblivion

Oblivion’s main story revolves around the player character’s efforts to thwart a fanatical cult that plans to open the gates to a realm called Oblivion. The game continues the open-world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely. A perpetual objective for players is to improve their character’s skills, which are numerical representations of certain abilities. Seven skills are selected early in the game as major skills, which improve quickly, with the remainder termed minor. Developers opted for tighter pacing and greater plot focus than in past titles.
