  • In today's video, we go through and discuss the entire story and quest line for the thieves guild in the elder scrolls 4 oblivion. We begin by getting contacted by the guild itself, either through going to jail or hearing about it from the beggars. From here, we compete for a spot into the guild and work our way up through the ranks. Starting out by taking orders from Armande Christophe, then from S'krivva and the finally from the big boss himself, the Gray Fox. These quests and contracts lead us all over Cyrodiil and in the end we end up going on the craziest heist of all, to steal an elder scroll! This is then followed by an even more interesting reveal, and a very incredible reward for our efforts! Don't forget to like, comment and subscribe!

    The thieves guild is one BIG reason this game is so much better than Skyrim. The thieve’s guilds perks such as getting you out of trouble by paying Armand is a nice added little touch and NEEDING to pay the fences make stealing a viable way to make money and introduce you to it. Love this game and your content, man. I don’t have a lot of time to play games so you doing these series is a great way I can dive into oblivion and relive a childhood favorite. Appreciate you.

    Thank you for making top tier content. I don't have time to play video games at the moment and I always have a strong allure to Elder Scrolls. There are plenty of Skyrim based channels, but less for Oblivion. I love lore, but sometimes it's nice to experience the nostalgia of questlines again. It's become a daily ritual when winding down before bed to watch your videos. Thank you for what you do ❤️

    i still watch the full stitched-together versions even after the individual parts, tbh, i feel like you get two different viewing experiences like that. When you're viewing the individual parts as they are uploaded, and the eventual full-thing takes what you got, then makes it take a more permanent form, plot details you'd never otherwise remember are way more notable and stick out more.

    • @ABardsBallad
      @ABardsBallad  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I like it! Very well put! Yeah the parts are like little hits of the oblivion world building and lore, and then the full videos are the entire story!

    Oblivion Questlines are so much more memorable for me than the Skyrim ones. Like base game skyrim quests are almost exclusively, go clear out a nordic/dwarven ruin, cave, or fort. The dark brotherhood was decent, but most quests are pure dungeon crawls.

    I'll be honest, knowing that Bethesda did not really take too great of care with the lore of their own property sours me on The Elder Scrolls and it has become such a massive mainstream thing that it now seems mundane looking back at it, but Oblivion is like a comfort game, so I very much enjoy this content.

    Methredhel goes straight to the diary. You can just follow her and enter the door first. Shes super slow once she goes inside and sneaks.

  • @NerdWytch

    Okay but can we take a minute to consider the absolute snark of Corvus Umbranox? With just one forged letter, he arranged the best possible protection for his wife - with no guarantee that his plan would succeed - removed a problem for the future Gray Fox, AND became THE BOSS of the man who's been hunting him for years. Lex will spend the rest of his life having no idea that Count Umbranox was the Gray Fox, and Corvus just gets to sit in his throne and chuckle at him forever. This man was playing 4D chess.
    I now headcanon that every so often, Corvus just yells out, "Hey Lex! I'm over here!" And just laughs while Lex is just so confused 😆

    If you have a spell/potion/high enough acro, you can survive jumping down the chute without wearing the Boots of Springheel Jack, and you can keep them to use later. They are only scripted to break during that part of the quest.

    Might also explain the lack of mention of the Hero of Kvatch in Skyrim. Because the Cowl erases you from history and the more significant accomplishments are credited to someone else.

    for the using console commands for the ring, i feel like it's a rule at this point that if a bethesda game is bugged and you can use console commands to fix it you can do so guilt-free

    • @Encephalophage
      @Encephalophage 15 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      This would be super interesting, but I think it would be impossible since the diary is a quest item so you can never remove it from your inventory once you have it
      Theoretically you could use console commands to place a version of it in Amusei's inventory, but I have to believe that this would either do nothing or break the quest, depending on whether you opt to delete the original in the process. Still, this could be worth testing - wouldn't take long to do
