I disagree, slightly. If you remove yourself from the npc's line of sight (either by a lot of running or some tricky manoeuvring) then there's no reason why one shouldn't be able to hide again. Now that the guard is alerted to your presence it might make remaining hidden a lot harder, but it's not to say it shouldn't be possible. That's how it works in real life. Guards that know exactly what you've done and exactly where you are even though they can't see you is NOT how it is in real life.

The 100% chameleon was always cheezy in Morrowind and, unfortunately, it looks like it might be the only practical way of stealthy combat in Oblivion. But i'm looking forward to finding my own ways.

I still haven't played it yet, but i've less than 6 hours to wait. This has been the longest week in memory...
