couldnt agree with you more, thats one of the only things ive found dissapointing about the game:

the populations of towns and specifically the I city are so small it seems like you are sometimes the only one there... you would expect a city to be live with festivals and culture not like two people guarded by about 50 soldiers... it would make the atmosphere in towns a lot better and you would really tell the difference when you go out by your self into the wild

my personal fav however is Leyawiin because of the quests ive found there (and the rewards) as well as the hospitality of the royalty (lol)... the weather sucks though

I put Skingrad. My house there is the best!
I like the big stone architecture.

I also like the Imp City Arcane U. and Market Districts - so full of life and fun stuff!

For the lackk of verbal support, Skingrad is winning hands down.

Skingrad is favourite, it just seems larger than the other because the streets are small and the houses big. I can easiyl get lost there.

Cheydinhal gets my vote, because of the Dunmer population and the fact that it's richer in vegetation than other towns.

Yep, cos that's all we need in Oblivion....more vegetation.


Skingrad is a rerfeshing change from the amount of greenery there is.

I haven't been to all towns yet, but I voted anyway. As for what towns I've visited so far, Bruma seems like a really cosy town. Reminds me a bit of this little town where I live at the moment. Snowy, and has lots of tree houses, and Nords in them :P

I gave my vote to Anvil because Xander is currently living there. It is a decent place too. I have made friends with the merchants and the fighter's guild as well as the mage's guild are right down the street from home

Note: The following paragraph could be seen as a spoiler if you haven't completed the thieves guild.

I don't know, I don't chill enough, whenever I'm bored of dungeon hacking and feel like going somewhere to chill I always pick the imperial city because my water front house is an easy place to stash stuff (when if I took off a certain item of feather I wouldn't be able to move, but I don't want to walk down the street with it or I'd get about ten feet). I've robbed it dry now though, so usually these days I'm in skingrad, chilling with my servant and my adoring fan. I'm also pretty tight with the count in skingrad, most of the others, aside from maybe the countess of choral, don't know me quite as well as Hassildor.

End spoiler.

My favorite region of the game is the deep southeast. It's very peaceful and beautiful there, even on my semi-low settings.

its all bout the big city where you can get anything you need

Same

Chorrol for the gaurds. I am going make myself a dungeon and collect them, my ranger is currently wearing the Chorrol armour though I have that nice enchanted cuirass from Kvatch on me as well as a Kvatch sheild which I wear when I want the extra strength. I think Chorrol is also where I get my arrows, but I forget, I only like it for the gaurd uniform, can't remember anything else about it apart from location, it could be the place where I get my arrows if it is then I like it for 2 reasons. I also like the place with coloured stone buildings but I forgot where that is.

Skingrad is pretty cool for the castle and the uniform, city is average though.

anvil, no competition. i mean cmon theres nothing better than a city by the sea.

I like Bruma because it's the farthest north and the architecture it pretty nice.

Ah, Anvil ftw. The lovely sea, and the beautiful scenery.

Cheydinhal gets my vote. Beautiful sceanery, beautiful architecture. My house isn't too big or too small...and I've got to factor in the DB sanctuary. Makes a Listener feel safe living just around the corner.

Kvatch must feel very hated right now.

Well..Kvatch got leveled.

I'm sure it would've got more votes otherwise. I mean, being the second largest city in Cyrodiil (susposedly...) and having an Arena, it could've been Oblivion's "Balmora".

Plus it had the most badass emblem of all the cities.

Balmora the best city in all of Morrowind...

*Spoiler*

Pisces is found laying dead on the ground, skewered through with dozens of arrows - holding open a pocket notebook that has a last entry:

Now where is it that I buy my arrows at?
Chorrol
Imperial City
Anvil
Bruma
Skingrad
Cheydinhal
Leyawiin
Bravil

***Note to self = Remember & Purchase more arrows soon*

i like imperial city because there is much to do there. theres the arena, mages thingy, shops and more
