Even though I have been gaming since Pong (my first game console), I have never played any Elder Scrolls games. This trailer's voice over is new to me, and it is so strange and nostalgic to hear Patrick Stewart's young and vibrant voice on the trailer for a game released this morning.

Haha, I wondered at first if that was Patrick Stewart, and then decided it wasn't. Glad I was wrong.

He's almost the age of the emperor now.

90% of Oblivion's voice acting budget must have gone to paying for Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean to say a few dozen lines. It's long been a meme that basically every other person in Cyrodill shares the same six or seven voice actors.
