Amen, brother.
In the words of Richard Garriot, "Roleplaying games at least in my mind are essentially social experiences".
I suggest you keep your petulance to yourself, in future MrCrimsoNblade, if you're angry or annoyed it is much easier to vent it elsewhere in a FPS or something rather than denigrate yourself publicly.
Ironically, I'm glad Oblivion has been delayed as it will give me a chance to save up some more for the relative uber-machine I'm going to need to run it.
In the meantime, I'm even tempted to play Morrowind again...though it only took me a month to complete it and both expansions, I didn't do any of the thieves, dark brotherhood or Cammona Tong quests (practically wiped them all out in fact, hehe). There's always the possibility of trying a mod or two also.
However, knowing just how strong the game can pull on one's brain has me a bit reluctant to start it.
Incidentally, did anyone actually get my referrence earlier to Patrick Stewart? He did some great voice work in a classic old school rpg that won my heart. I completed it with all the characters. Double thumbs up to the person who gets it right and has played it too!
