A Frequently-Misclassified Epic

“Oblivion” is a game I have owned for quite a long time but have been putting-off playing/reviewing for the simple fact that every preview, review, etc. has mentioned the game's incredible, epic length. While I do like long games, I don't like diving into an unfamiliar series with a long game. Yes, it's true, I have not played “Arena,” “Daggerfall,” or “Morrowind,” mainly due to the fact that the first two games looked incredibly unimpressive when they were released, and the third never found its way to a gaming platform not created by Microsoft.
So, now that Bethesda decided to share the love and port “Oblivion” to every platform capable of running it, I was dubiously looking forward to my first Western RPG experience since “Baldur's Gate 2” knocked my socks …
