I agree with this. Also, one of the reasons I really liked the game was because of the quests in the thieve's guild.
For one of the quests I had to go to someone's house in the middle of the city and steal an amulet or something. After what seemed like an hour I trying, I realized I wasn't able to get the amulet through sneaking, so I just grabbed it and ran. I dashed through the city with an ever increasing number of guards chasing me. I managed to get to the city gate without the guards chasing my by using my in-game parkour skills (jumping over things and running on the tops of houses). I went through the door to outside the city, thinking I had escaped the guards, only to my dismay, finding them still chasing me. Luckily, I ended up outside the city right next to a horse stable. I threw open the gate, stole a horse, and rode away to saftey, with the slow guards far behind me.
The reason I liked Oblivion is because of times like this. I love escaping from guards.
