[Oblivion] times when your gaming IQ drops

[Teggy]

Fired up Oblivion on the 360 for the first time yesterday.  Made it to the first gate, talked to the NPCs and got stuck.  I was going to go back and try and figure it out but my curiosity got the best of me and I did a faq search.  Turns out my problem was

Spoiler for Hiden:

You can't just walk through the gates, you have to click on them to enter them.

I usually encounter the exact opposite problem: I'm so used to gaming conventions that I sometimes get stymied by a logical solution.  Instead of your problem I might click on a door in frustration for 10 minutes before realizing I'm just supposed to walk through it.

That was one thing I sort of disliked about going from Doom to Quake: doors opened automagically.

There was nothing like being afraid to open a door, or better yet just waiting by a door ready to fire some rockets once it opened.

What are the chances I just got off the phone with a R-Tard bitch and this is the first post I see. Not saying your either of the two negative extremities used Teggy, we all have moments..
This lady bought a 4GB flashdrive to back up her Computer..COMPUTER.. she plugs the flashdrive in the computer, per her accounts, waited for the light to stop flashing then took it out and proceeded to take her computer to the store to have the OS reinstalled... She comes home put the flashdrive back in waits for the light to stop flashing and tries to find all the files and programs before she reloaded the OS... WTF now she wants to file a lawsuit for us producing faulty products..WTF...
I just needed to vent for the incompetence of some people..
once again Teggy, nothing to do with you. I still try to jump 2 foot walls with my character.

You can't just say it, dummy.  You have to hold up your mouse and talk into the bottom.
