I am as far in the main quest as I have to go to all the cities to get help in protecting Bruma. Now, I see that I only have about two or three more achievements to get to clear the game. I don't need to be told how to do this or that, but is the honeymoon period nearly over?  |

You've got a few more hardcore love sessions left. Enjoy them while they last.

So I have more than say, about 2-3 hours left to finish the MQ?

WTF?! you gonna go on a honeymoon in Oblivion? Don't tell me you're gonna get the chance to marry Martin  For Pete's sake. Why didn't they give martin the face of Christopher Lee? Then I'd like the idea! |

Not quite what I was talking about. You were close, but way off.

I'm master of every guild, champion of the arena, yadda yadda... Finished all the quest in all the towns... found all the master trainers... But I haven't actually started the main quest yet.  |

Hm, all with the one character? I know your using an Argonian, but what skills, etc. are you using that would be compatible for all the guilds?
I've gotten advanced to some degree in all, cleared the Arena.... (With different characters)

I've been doing hardcore levelling. My skills are all maxed. I'm capped out at level 51. Which is a ton easier in this game than any previous one I've found. I mean, before, there was a challenge to actually using your skills enough to raise them. Now they've been flying up without trying. |

Well, I mostly agree. Things like mercantile... I mean, I didn't even pick it as a major, and i've gotten it up to close to 30 so far.

Mercantile shot through the roof with the amount of selling I've done. I would clear out a dungeon, and make several trips back and forth to sell everything that wasn't nailed down. |

I don't need to be told how to do this or that, but is the honeymoon period nearly over? If you're anything like me (just completed the main this morning) then there will be a whole host of side-quests and exploration still to do. Are you on PC? You might want to consider some mods once you're done. Even some of the fixes might make the game feel different.  |

Otherwise you still might get your  handed to you in Oblivion. If you are though, everything should be at least 10 level lower than you. I was told when I made my orc with that character generator program that he could only reach a max level of around 42, but I finished all I cared to finish at level 33, and was finding it hard even then to level anything more. I suppose it's all a matter of whether you want to take the time to get straight 5's. |

You know, Morrowind's MQ was pretty short too. The bulk of the time I spent with it was on side quests and faction quests.

It was certainly longer, but the primitive coding and stone age graphics hurt it. I liked how you actually had to fight in the ending battle of that one.

It didn't seem longer, there were probably more quests but nearly all of them were fetch quests that would be done in a minute. The end battle was pretty bornig too, you did fight it, but it wasn't much of a fight. You still get a pretty cool ending this time, though you may not fight at the very end, you do get some great fights at the end and the last battle is cool. |

You might want to consider some mods once you're done. Even some of the fixes might make the game feel different. Yeah, I do have a lot of other quests to do. In terms of achievements, I currently have 25 of 50, so I have a lot to do in terms of gameplay. Oh, and i'm on the xbox 360. My PC is crap. |

I suppose it's all a matter of whether you want to take the time to get straight 5's. No mods of yet. But I have yet to find anything of any challenge. Even with the difficulty set to max. Well... okay, the guards are still uber. But I can clear any random dungeon with ease. |

Yeah, I guess you do have the great loot at that level, that kind of gives you an advantage. You should really get some mods though, I've got around 30 already.

Well.. for tweaks and such I don't find them necessary. I mean... the game's pretty well balanced for my liking. The only mods I really want are major content additions. Like new quests and locations... Maybe something like a romance mod (gotta keep pushing it). |

Either myself or one of my hordes of RAI people will get around to it eventually. We are a force to be reckoned with.
