For preserving the least toxic and most culturally relevant Tumblr heritage posts.

Image descriptions and plain text captions of written content are expected of all screenshots. Here are some image text extractors (I looked these up quick and will gladly take FOSS recommendations):

-web

-iOS

-android

Please begin copied raw text posts (lacking a screenshot that makes it apparent it is from Tumblr) with:

Maybe the Oblivion intro feels more memorable because the rest of the games was such a step down from Morrowind in a lot of ways. Skyrim, for all its continued dumbing down of Elder Scrolls, was a well made fun game. And you got to be the main character again!

I actually love Oblivion for the reason you are NOT the main chosen one character. Oblivion's people love you regardless, while they treat you like a fetchdog in Skyrim.
Oblivion's curse is the broken leveling system.

Oh god, that leveling system is abysmal isn't it?

I found that to be successful I had to primarily focus my main skills in silly shit I could easily level.

All hail the master of jumping and unarmed combat, defeater of dremora lords!
