You can actually befriend him with the social mini-game, but companions weren't fully implemented in Oblivion afaik, you'd need a mod to bring him along.
Would be cool like Bandit: “this is a hold up, 100 gold or else…” >(100 gold) here you go >refuse >(1000 gold) or I could offer you this to fight by my side. Depending on the previous disposition they had they’d either react badly by attacking you realizing how rich you are, or get astonished that you’re offering so much for (somewhat) honest work and thank you if disposition is moderate to high.
@@roddbroward9876 you can have a companion in the DLC which gives you battlehorn castle. But they're generic npcs, not even having a name, called "battlehorn man-at-arms" or something like that.

Also, a lot of bandits probably just want to help themselves and have no loyalty to each other, just trying to put food in their bellies. You paid him so he really has no reason to hate you, and see you suffer at the hands of others, so he gives you a little tip to stay clear. Maybe I’m too optimistic about this but I doubt most bandits are just evil for the sake of evil
Vanilla/Unmodded Oblivion with it's distinct, stretched texture graphics has its own calming, soothing effect that goes well with the BGM and top-of-the-command-line AI. Todd and co spilled paint on the canvas, and it all landed beautifully.
Never had another game give me that super intense feeling of nostalgia! It ain't even my first game. Sometimes I just turn it on, put my headphones on and walk around Cyrodiil for hours on end.
I always loved it when Villainous/Scripted to be hostile on sight NPCs can be pacified and you can grind your speech on them and they have rumors and thoughts they can share to you. This video happened to me and I Leveled up by uping my Speech on him.
I remember paying the bandit 100 gold and quickly talked to him with that speech craft minigame. Bribed the khajiit and now all he does is stand by an abandoned fort with a perplexed look. He's happy to see me, but damn, when you become a bandit to rob the hero of kvatch, to only have the hero pay you to get some reputation points.
The AI in this game is unmatched.
It truly is
It was groundbreaking for its time. Before that everything was manually scripted.
@@aaronmicalowe meme ai
@@zjamieibzjamieib145 psshhh…. Kids these days smh
@@user-dm8kz8ul8h it's the greatest meme of a game ever don't you dare lie
To be honest, the bandit knows what he's talking about.
Yeah he’s just making an informed comment about his industry.
It takes one to know one
not a bandit but a highwayman
The Bandits of the East are even worse what a nice guy
Highwaymen, bandits and marauders are in fact enemies with each other
He looks kinda angry at the end. I wonder what his life story was.
He has seen some things.
Living in the wilderness takes its toll on a khajiit
*"Take it, it has no use to me anyway"*
His parents were Alfiq he always had difficulty when it came to introducing his dates to them cause they always thought they were his pet cats. Didn't help that his dad would even play along.
Bribe him enough and he'll have the biggest smile on his face
Homie went 😠 straight after telling you about those bandits
He remembered he needed to act tough
I've seen that cuttlefish!
Damn Treasure Hunterrrss!
I saw it more as 😏
You. Blind ? His facial expression looks same
It would be even funnier if he said "Safe travels" there at the end 🤣🤣
So ominous
That and then he glares
Indeed
Till we meet again
Every moment in this game feels like a monty Python Sketch
I assure you Monty Python is a heavy influence on today's media, games, and 2-3 generations of humor.
*maiq running towards kvatch but never gets any closer*
Surprised he has the same voice; the beggars have a cockney accent when asking for coin, and sound like upper class British people when asking about rumors.
Prob cuz they were cheap and only hired one guy to do both the argonians and khajiit
That's Bethesda for you, they hire like 5 voice actors for their games.
They pretend more prestigious accents for better deals.
Khajiits most of the time has the same voice
@@darkwolf7969
Seemed like Argonians did too.
“There are a lot of bandits in this area. Be careful, I wouldn’t want something to *happen* to you.”
Oblivion dialogue camera was the best. Especially when you greet an NPC from behind & they have scary face😱
Glarthir of Skingrad says hi... or rather "Pssssst!"
Used to scare the shit out of me and in fact still does, could do without it tbh
@@oujimandias6485 I had Vicente Valtieri in mind...
my favorite one was "steal from the rich, give to the poor if you catch my drift"
The guards will stroll up behind you and try to arrest you and I'll get jump scared by the dialogue lol
Every Oblivion Khajiit looks like my damn aunt. 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They are related lol
Is your aunt a furry
Oh Lord 😂
💀
I love how oblivion characters change the expression after the conversation, like they just remembered they don't like you😁
IT'S STILL PRETTY WILD BR0
The East of the Niben is lit
@@buffalo_sauce not many people but bandits
YOU WANT CAKE BR0?
Holy fuck, 340 likes! Thanks!
I read this in the voice.
That face at the end looked like "wait why did I tell them that?"
😂
"No NPC is actually scripted!"
We know, Todd, we know...
"It just works"
"Those dirty treasure hunters like yourself that pick our homes clean is the reason why we have to become bandits. *SNEERS*"
No... dead bodies don't make bandits.
They might make material for undead armies though.
You pay him, he give you an advise, ordinary.
He ain't warning, it's a professional advice, he knows where it's good to work as a bandit !
Stop making me want to play decade old games
That’s the best kind of game!
@@buffalo_sauce decade and a half
@@buffalo_sauce I agree. Older games run better on my potato PC anyways.
Runs like smooth wine on my ps3
@@orangeismyfavoritecolor
Maybe you can even push some graphics mods and make an old game look pretty good even on a pro-tato
*Pickpockets own 100 gold from bandit*
Bandit: Take it, I dont need it anyway
But at least it hasn’t been picked clean by treasure hunters >:(
"We know a thing or two because we've seen a thing or two."
Everything working as intended here, he's just very honest
The Highwaymen is a Bandit of higher quality.
They’re a bandit who waits along roads…
@@krusher181 A Highwaymen only resorts to violence if you don't hand over your money. I have probably maybe 500k gold in Oblivion. A few loose change is fair I think. A simple bandit attacks on site.
Highwayman are just trying to make a living, but bandits just don’t care
Technically, bandits operate in bands and he's just a lone robber.
Maiiq doesn't know much, but he do know there be bandits 😛
Not all Khajiit look the same… racism
U sure? He tends to lie a lot
Now I kinda wish there were a mechanic where you could befriend bandits and then start taking them along on your adventures.
Skyrim has it in mod form oblivion too and Morrowind and DaggerFall
You can actually befriend him with the social mini-game, but companions weren't fully implemented in Oblivion afaik, you'd need a mod to bring him along.
Would be cool like

TES VI really needs to let you become a bandit and mug people.

Hey, at least he was kind enough to tell you after paying him.
Oblivion has a beautiful scenery. When I was bored I used to go to the small island on the river south of Anvil, and just let the time pass, while looking around. Just like going to the beach, but without the sunburn (unless your character was a vampire).
Going to the beach is much nicer, stop making me sad.
Anvil was done justice, even if the cities were scaled as small towns. Cleanest port area, too!
I haven't played Oblivion but I do that with Skyrim and enjoy the scenery without the frostbite. I just love forests with pine trees. So peaceful...
Oblivion had a lot of memorable places, the Gold Coast and anvil were one of my favorite ones for sure.
@@roddbroward9876the shivering isles was the first DLC content I ever played - I didn't even know it was DLC at that point. And that moment when the room turned to butterflies and revealed the LSD kaleidoscope that is the shivering isles, I have never forgotten.
Best Elder Scrolls game of them all imo
"Yea I'm a bandit, but atleast he's not a filthy treasure hunter... like you...."
He had a change of heart.
Once i actually haven't 100 coins, he leave me, then i speak to him and we become friends
It's cool
17 years old nothing will ever have that nostalgia about it again
So true
They say that when you murder someone, the Dark Brotherhood comes to you in your sleep. It's how they recruit new members.
I've heard others say the same.
There’s been some terrible trouble at the chapel in Anvil! All of Dibella’s priests and priestesses, murdered.
"Watch out! There's people like me about!"
the down look at the end as he realized he talking about himself
most normal oblivion interaction
What a kind and helpful guy!
He's taunting you.
Actually makes sense. He's steering travelers away from a rival clan to overpower them
Also, a lot of bandits probably just want to help themselves and have no loyalty to each other, just trying to put food in their bellies. You paid him so he really has no reason to hate you, and see you suffer at the hands of others, so he gives you a little tip to stay clear.

he is a bandit but a honest bandit

The most oblivion like Oblivion dialogue
I love how they give these NPC's these dialogue options. I swear someone behind the scenes knows exactly what they're doing.
No bullshit I’ve seen a guy get robbed and ask the guy for directions afterwards lmao if you’ve ever been to north Philly, you’ll get this.
Makes total sense. Stops other bandits robbing, giving him more people to steal from with more coin. He is a genius.
He may be a bandit but he has standards
He was so angry that he revealed too much about his bandit camp location
Yeah it's pretty funny he reacted like that lmfao, never noticed that in Oblivion
If anyone's gonna know its him, I guess
He tells "don't give your money to bandits except me" 🗿🍷
What an intoxicating innocence.
This might be a reference for the nord just north of that swamp town west of bamora In morowind
Make it quieeeek…
Plots within Plots
ELDER SCROLLS
Went from a hold up to paying for advice.
It's something very comedic with the constant dramatic zoom-ins on goofy faces.
At least he was honest. I’m glad you didn’t kill him…right?
This is one of the AI of all time
One of the bandits of all Kalpic Cycle
Hes just pointing you to their rivals
Khajiit smart
I mean at least he was kind enough to at least give you some information after robbing you
Well, he didn’t lie
He is very reasonable.
Bro basically said, “we’re all bandits here on the east side - better watch your back treasure hunter 😠”
Bro just snitched on where the others are hiding
This cat has seen things.
Never had another game give me that super intense feeling of nostalgia! It ain't even my first game. Sometimes I just turn it on, put my headphones on and walk around Cyrodiil for hours on end.
Same. Often I find myself just exploring and taking my time with the quests
@@buffalo_sauce My favorite quest is most definitely Glarthir's "Paranoia".
I always loved it when Villainous/Scripted to be hostile on sight NPCs can be pacified and you can grind your speech on them and they have rumors and thoughts they can share to you. This video happened to me and I Leveled up by uping my Speech on him.
I wish they'd bring it back in a more refined form. They toned down a lot of the NPC mechanics and Radiant AI for Skyrim.
@@roddbroward9876 Mainly because it falls apart its hard to make NPCs that feel like People and not just AI.
Robs you. Casually walks away. Warns you about other bandits. Refuses to elaborate.
the zoom in when someone's talking always gets me
That look away at the end seems like he just figured out how crazy this conversation was 😂
This paints treasure hunters in a new light…
Love the Eye Movements
Hahaha, i miss this game.
He's a bandit & a good samaritan, at the same time.
I swear so much of this broken AI is half the game's charm
The AI is cringeworthy, but funny as hell.
“Khajiit has warnings if you have coin” 😂
A treasure hunter definitely killed this man’s rich parents and stole all their fortune resulting in him ultimately becoming a bandit just to get by.
i miss oblivion and oblivion misses me
What a badass,he warned us d
from himself
Someone's a bad kitty!
I remember paying the bandit 100 gold and quickly talked to him with that speech craft minigame. Bribed the khajiit and now all he does is stand by an abandoned fort with a perplexed look.

The jokes write themselves in oblivion
Says the bandit who took my MONEY!!
Cheeki-breeki and meow.
Предостерегает от конкурентов
Its cool how you can talk with npcs and ask for rumors, that would have been cool in skyrim
You can do it with Skyrim inn keepers.
Npcs of oblivion are unmatched.
Raise his disposition!!! Do the speech wheel!!!
Mans even got his innocent act...
The first time playing oblivion gave me a strange dream because the camera suddenly got closer to the npc face
Highwayman knows he needs to keep his highway using customers safe. Safe roads make you a decent abonnees
Don't give him your money. Fight!
It just works - Todd Howard
Working flawlessly as always
When he comes, I don't pay I fight him
He just wants you to pay next time you meet
This is the most ordinary looking oblivion khajiit I’ve ever seen
Thank you Bethesda for moments like this.
Hey, sounds like more of a threat to me, especially with that expression at the end.
Spiderman imposter meme
“Take it. It’s worthless to me anyway.”
