In RPG games, there are rules that we need to follow to avoid getting penalized. Some people play the game according to the rules, trying to be a model citizen. However, some players take pride in causing as much chaos as possible in virtual worlds.

19 years in prison

One of the Reddit s recently boasted about his "achievement" in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered. He was thrown into prison for a really long time. Long enough that if he had done it in real time, it would have been just in time for the debut of the refreshed edition.

I just spent 19 years in Jail. Yo is the Oblivion Crisis still going on, or...?

From the stats provided by the Reddit Viccytrix, we can find out what he had to do to get such a high sentence. He managed to collect an amazing 698,040 septims as a bounty for his capture, gather 1401 infamy points, and spend 6990 days in jail for stealing 2906 items, 45 assaults, 7 murders, and 7 horse thefts.

In the comments, he also revealed his secret technique for collecting almost 700,000 gold pieces as a reward for his capture. He did this by "decorating his castle with the stolen Varla Stone."

Oblivion punishes players who end up in prison by taking away skill points. Viccytrix itted that he only lost "a few" of them, most of which were in the Blade skill. So, as you can see, the consequences for this amount of offenses aren't too severe, which might encourage other players to play less "virtuously."

Oblivion Remastered is available on PC, PS5, and XSX/S. The game is also available in the Game subscription.
