@Bauglir1002 жыл бұрын
@@celphalonred1999 Yeah, but Skyrim's opening is not worth experiencing every goddamn time you start a new game. At least in Oblivion, you can skip the intro video and go straight to the character creation part. Skyrim takes three and a half unskippable minutes before you get off the wagon to get to the character creation section, and then you have to go through the whole execution sequence, and then you have to run to the keep and fight your way through the entire tutorial dungeon to get out of Helgen. And unlike Oblivion and Fallout 3, you don't get the option to change the character you created one more time right before you go out into the world for the first time, which would've saved you the trouble of having to go through the dungeon all over again. So you have no choice but to experience that grand opening over and over every single time you want to create a new character. And with all the re-releases and ports Skyrim has received, you're going to be seeing that grand opening a lot. So most people are basically sick of it by now, and it's become a joke over the years.
@hobomike69352 жыл бұрын
"hey, YOU. you're finally awake" has charm in it's own way. the problem with this game's intro is it makes the imperial city seem so big and bad@$$, it's almost misleading since the actual imperial city is way smaller once you get to start up the game and explore it with your character. you can, of course, mod the game to fix this, but I just remember skyrim living up to how big it's world seemed to be compared to oblivion, which just felt a little smaller than I had hoped :(

I remember the first time i played this game and saw that intro for the first time. One word: EPIC

This is a masterwork intro. The music plays a main role here. A total hit. Pitty it doesn't last longer. Actually this is one of the best games' soundtrack IMHO. The main themes are all in the intro, you can barely hear the initial arpegio, that will be used afterwards... I also love the Battle theme 5, very strong!

I want to go back and experience this game for the first time ❤ The most amazing and epic game ever. Chills everytime watching this intro

I started with Skyrim. Didn't wanted to play previous titles because they were very old for my taste but boy I was in for surprise when I finally played Oblivion and was greeted by this amazing opening

What if they made a movie based off TES IV - Oblivion? That would be the perfect scene for opening the movie and showing the title. It's just so perfect.

You couldn't make a movie out of Oblivion, a TV series? Probably, but a movie? You wouldn't be able to cover a fraction of the game, and what would be the point then?

@archbishop of pride natsuki subaru But you wouldn't necessarily have to. You could switch from a single hero to an ensemble cast, split the hero into four or five characters.

This game had a lot of acting talent. Patrick Stewart, Sean Bean, Terrance Stamp, Lynda Carter, Wes Johnson and Jeff Baker. When you have Captain Picard, 006, Wonder Woman, Sheogorath, Saint Juib and Mother Fucking Zod in your cast, you know you have an epic story to tell.

"I was born 87 years ago. For 65 years I've ruled as Tamriel's emperor. But for all these years, I've never been the ruler of my own dreams. I have seen the gates of Oblivion, beyond which no waking eye may see. Behold, in darkness a doom sweeps the land. This is the 27th of Last Seed, the year of Akatosh, 433. These are the closing days of the 3rd Era...and the final hours of my life."

It's a bit of an awkward one this one. The bit where the camera swoops across the basin towards the city is the bit where I get a little teary eyed, and that's before the dramatic awesomeness starts. I can't tell whether as a dude I'm just being a bit odd, or whether I'm witnessing a crowning moment of awesome :).

at the time, Patrick Stewart's voice was synonymous with authority and guidance. whether you heard him as Picard or Professor X, the moment he started speaking, you knew at the end you were gonna do what he commanded, _and then some_

Remember, this is the same company that later made Skyrim’s hour long cart ride.
