dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

I don't know, I don't think Oblivion's is much better.

Oblivion's story is terrible

Everyone just remembers it fondly because of nostalgia now

But it's so bad

Finding Patrick Stewart's bastard son Sean Bean so he can do all the actual work of defeating Mehrunes Dagon

I remember literally putting the controller down and saying "Wow, that was awful"

Even the lauded Dark Brotherhood plot is bad because it's so heavily telegraphed that you can see it coming and yet, you are powerless to stop it despite the game pretending like your choices matter

Everyone hyped up the Dark Brotherhood questline so much only for it to turn out dog shit.

Everyone acts like Lucian Lachance is so cool, but he just dies like a chump.
He should have been doing a power play or something instead of the awful plot we got where some mama’s boy kills everyone and there is nothing you can do because everyone in the Dark Brotherhood is incompetent.

Edit: some of the individual quests are good tho I guess, but the overarching story was so blah

The quest where you go into the painting is pretty nifty, but it's like 10 minutes and has no real bearing on anything

Which is a shame because, holy shit, painted worlds ala Super Mario 64 could be utilized for so much cool shit

I played Oblivion a lot but I never finished the main quest. I was too busy doing shit with the thieves and dark brotherhood.
