Greetings Patrons, new and old.  The day is finally upon us.  

Unfortunately, YT is still processing the HD version so as of posting it'll be limited to 360p.  I watched the entire thing at that resolution and, while scuffed, the audio is mostly fine for listening purposes.  YT does not give me a time for when HD will be available.

I ended up having to re-export anyways for another issue, so this is the Patron Version.  I've enabled light (read: non-intrusive) monetization, in case any of you are YT Premium users and wish to support me that way.  Feel free to comment, although bear in mind you'll have to repost them if you want them to be in the public version.

There will be a Premiere on 9/1.  I'll try to be in chat for that one.

Please do not share this video until after the public release.

Oh boy! Time to find me my over-8-hours worth of Popcorn and soda!

Morrowind + Oblivion marathon viewing when?

Toastoffire

I watched your 8 hour Morrowind video because I love Morrowind, but now I'm watching your 12 hour Oblivion videos because I love your channel. Whether you do long or short videos, keep it up you absolute fucking madman.

Gonna jump on the idea of rewatching Morrowind and then moving on to this either here or on YT as time allows!

Tom Warder

The day we’ve all been waiting for, mate, well bloody done. I bet this has been a gargantuan effort, and on behalf of everyone who’s gonna watch this from now until whatever distant date youtube goes down, Thankyou.

Kvatch was always the part of Oblivion I think I hated the most. Even when the game was brand new I despised that the city was stuck in a perpetual state of Limbo. It utterly ruined my immersion and left a real sour taste in my mouth towards Oblivion in general. Especially since the enormous oversight was never addressed by any patches/DLC. Also most people I know skip most of the voiced dialog in these games after reading the subtitles... I'd go so far as to say the majority of players do.

Fantastic work as always
