Speedrun: Oblivion beaten in 11 minutes

Destructoid writes: "How in the ... oh, right. I knew The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was a glitchy game, but hot damn, this is insane.
Almost every speedrun out there involves some sort of exploit in order to shave off precious seconds of game time (or in this case, hours), and the Oblivion speedrun located above is no exception.
By falling through the map, the speedrunner is able to initiate the game's final quest, completely skipping all of those pesky fetch missions.
While the video has no sound due to its creator being cheap and using demo software, it's still one to sit through."

Well that was not fun. Cool. But no fun at all.

SSCOOLCHEA5751d ago

and play it for 11 minutes , people are retarded . I hate people who sits there and looks for glitches and all other types of cheating shenanigans to play a game .

mfwahwah5751d ago

You do realize he must have played this game for hours upon hours to find this glitch right?

riddlesticks5751d ago

just a side note...

but how did this video get approved!!

THAT IS NOT WHERE THE FEMUR GOES!!! WTF????

...im soo pissed off

LIKE HOW HARD IS IT i suppose the word femur is only Latin for thigh... but i guess this "wiseguy" missed the day they learnt that in Latin class.

I suggest Mr "Xevro" take a long hard look at himself.

/sarcasm

lol

ThanatosDMC5751d ago

The funny thing is... Oblivion does not end. The game keeps going.

He should just write "Main Quest beaten in 11 minutes".

wish i had known how to do this. 10 hours of this game and you couldn't pay me to finish this game. trade in, quicker than this 11 mins.

SSCOOLCHEA5751d ago

makes me dizzy , anyone have a cure for FPS motion sickness .

Prismo_Fillusion5751d ago

There's a difference between a speed-run and cheating...

Kleptic5751d ago

aaahhh...yeah...but some official speed-run sites allow you to exploit any glitches still in the game...

Doom 2 is a great example...there are a few that shave only a few seconds off the time...its not part of a 'cheat' you enter, its just a glitch that iD never patched...so its ok to use it...

this isn't really a speed-run game though...if it wasn't for this bizarre problem...it would be a fairly long speed run...

P4KY B5751d ago

It would seem that my time is about 93:49:00 off the pace.

Massive-Delusion5751d ago

Epic Fail. It's not really genuine is it? He's using a glitch....

If this is true, I hope it leads to Morrowind getting remade next.

-Foxtrot8d ago

I thought they’d go for Morrowind first to be honest but this is a welcoming surprise to tide us over before ES6

TheColbertinator7d ago

Well said. Exactly my thoughts too.

Tedakin8d ago

Unreal Engine isn't efficient for open world games, so I question the reliability of this story.

isarai8d ago

Yeah, 1st thing that came to my mind too, although i CAN see it being likely for ease if use, but it's not going to run very well if so

Tacoboto8d ago (Edited 7d ago )

I'd wonder if it would just be exploiting Unreal for graphics but the underlying engine/logic is still the original framework.

Like how we had the graphical remakes of Halo Anniversary, Tomb Raider I-III, and Demon's Souls.

Could also end up a disaster like the GTA Trilogy

mkis0077d ago

I have heard that too but even if it's modified isnt arkham knight UE?

Fragslayer7d ago

"remake will run both an Unreal Engine 5 project and the old Oblivion project. For instance, new graphics are rendered in the Unreal Engine 5 project, but most of the gameplay and physics are still done on the original Oblivion engine"

So with this logic it'll run just fine using UE5 tool sets on top of Gamebryo's engine or maybe even Creation Engine, who knows.

Hopefully modders can fix the aged combart in this game if this is true. Enemies leveling up with you broke and defeated the whole purpose of leveling up.

Fragslayer7d ago

Yeah it could use some tuning for sure hence the need for a Remake not a Remaster. I'm surprised it's even a conversation within them group which makes me skeptical it's Oblivion. I wouldn't say they shouldn't level up at all though maybe just a leave them a couple levels behind to appease the masses.
