Skyrim Player Tries Oblivion Lockpicking For The First Time #skyrim #oblivion #lockpicking

[justinjohnson]

This lock picking system was difficult to learn but to this day I could consistently pick master levels with a single pick all day long. Once you get the rythym of it down it’s foolproof

[CaliniaCondor]

Lockpicking is actually broken on the pc version of Oblivion. The game doesn't correctly register your inputs, so even if you know what to do and do everything with the correct timing it still fails.

[bionicplanet]

The devs really wanted you to be patient in oblivion lockpicking

[patricks.]

I love this lockpicking because it shows how lockpicking is really made. And i love Oblivion in generall

[furlyghost]

This is why I always get the skeleton key as soon as possible in Oblivion

[ErrorMessage]

The key is a tumbler always moves slowest immediately after the fastest drop. That’s the one you go for.
Figured that one out in 2006.

[JulesJackSkellington]

You can literally hear when to lock the tumbler in place. You would hear two "Tinks".
Yes you can just look at how slow it goes up but also listen.

[jmc]

The keys rise whith two speeds. Fast, always locks.
If it rises slowly ( you'll notice a difference) you can hit it everytime. This is my favorite type of lockpicking in any game

[pixiewixiechu]

when it's gonna work, the pin sticks before it falls. the sound it makes is slightly different as well.

[otterpop]

Lock picking is always so unreal

I can pick, scrape, bump, override or cut out most locks

This is why I should be on a developer team

[vincentender]

I hated skyrims lockpicking initially, now I find it mildly annoying. For some reason doing it this way is fun for me.

[jakeekaj]

Once you’re level 10 you can start a quest to get the unbreakable lock pick

[REDNUR]

I loved Oblivion lock picking. For one it felt like a real challenge and actually took timing and patience.

[Naruzakun]

i wonder what thelockpickinglawer would do...

[wormwood_knight]

As a child my mom would have me pick locks for her cause she was a mage class. Now losing a single pick to a very hard lock disappoints me.

[gamerwhovian]

Ngl I love oblivion’s lockpicking system, it’s a fun challenge

[PsychoYandere]

There’s a trick to it.
The lockpicking becomes easy when you look for the fast tumbler fall animation. Every fast tumbler fall is followed by a slow tumbler fall animation. Lock it in place for the slow tumbler fall.

Struggling in Oblivion with lockpicking...

I am the only one that never had problems with that?

[gamergodofjustice]

I completely forgot what oblivion lock picking looked like

[Full_Throttle_Axolotl]

For anyone actually struggling with this, don't just try to lock the pins every single time you push them, they'll either go up fast or slow, if it goes fast let it fall back down until it goes slow, then lock it, beyond that it's just practice to get the rhythm down and you're peachy
