Actually, the only games I've been able to afford in the past year or two are BF3 and Terraria. I still want Skyrim and a Fallout game (yes, I've never played Fallout. The horror!)

inb4"it's isometric you idiot"

While I agree with Lord, the first two Fallouts were rich with lore, a lot of fun, and instrumental in actually understanding the rest of the series (despite the fact that a lot of the lore was bastardized by Bethesda in Fallout 3 and New Vegas).

Guess which Elder Scrolls game I can't get into because of its awful combat system?

As if that's an excuse for it to suck? The thing is the only reason I'm there is for the story - if I can't access the story because of the combat system, then damn it must be a bad combat system. The stamina bar just makes it even worse.

I've never played a Fallout game or an Elder Scrolls game before Skyrim (Gasp).

I wasn't attacking you, I was just predicting a response. As I said, I totally agree with you; isometric combat is for gamers before my time (and perhaps yours, but a hundred and eleven is pretty damn old). It's possible to get into it, but easier to just read the Wiki. I've done both, the latter to catch what I missed with the former.

Really? Well, if you want to go back in the ES series, go for Morrowind instead of Oblivion. Oblivion is basically just an older Skyrim, with a few cool features missing. Morrowind has the best environment in the series IMO. That, and glass armor looks badass in Morrowind.

Dark grey plate armor with neon green glass spikes everywhere? Hell yes!
