Wow. What an anguish. Personally, i do like the game. It is a graphical marvel BUT it is riddled with inconsistency, drop in framerate sometimes and loading time out of nowhere to refresh the framerate. The story is ok, i don't get your meaning of learning a whole new speech. What? you mean you don't know English?!? The gameplay is average. Sure, you might shoot most of the times BUT if you use techie or boitic, you have whole different arsenals to use ranging from Throw, levitation and such. I would suggest you try to dvelve more into the classes. however, the side missions do get repetitive. Still, not as bad as Assassin's Creed's repetitive missions. i still enjoy the game and would say it is one of the better western action RPG out there. (Haven't play Oblivion so can't comment)
