"GF!: I love single player, but one of my biggest hopes is for the ability to join up with a friend and play the quests together, fight alongside another person cooperatively - even if it's just one person. It's probably not going to happen, but could we maybe see this happen in, say, an expansion to Oblivion, or maybe in Elder Scrolls V?

GC: You won’t see any multiplayer functionality in Oblivion. As I mentioned, we’re focused on providing the ultimate single-player experience. Doing a multiplayer component opens up a whole new host of technical and design issues and would seriously detract from the single-player experience. We’d rather focus 100 percent of our efforts on doing a fantastic single player game"
