I love the concept of the game, the area, and how endless it will be but I have a question: I played Oblivion for the first time a month ago and didn't have too much fun. Everyone told me it's a blast once you start playing for awhile and I wasn't patient enough. I've always been a multiplayer guy too. Is anyone similar in the fact that you're a multiplayer guy but loved Oblivion?
