My reason for gaming is sort of a mixture of both fun and escape, fun because every game is different and gets me interested in a variety of ways *storyline, characters, gameplay etc* and escape, because days at work can get very stressful, so i put the dark moments aside by entering the virtual world i suppose. But yeah my main reason would be for fun!

Was it more of the same or something completely different?

I was thinking about getting it to try and re-ignite the control that oblivion had over me. Good Times.

I got shivering isles when I got oblivion, it was ok, got me back into oblivion for a little while.
It was sort of the same as Oblivion as in recovering elixers and stuff, except some of the characters and npcs were really interesting, might start playing again due to your comment.

Really?? I didn't think so. The other add ons though are really good.

But yeah...It's worth it, I just hate walking like literally everywhere to find the new places.

The quests are quite long, some just annoyed the crap out of me.

If you really got into Oblivion like I did (80 hours +) then escape was a by-product of fun.
