Just How Many Freaking Gates?

The title says it all. I mean, Is it like 2~3 gates per every city? It's ridiculous!

Well, at first I thought they're something like "Boss-Fight" type of thing that'd take place 3~4 times throughout the game. I was sooooooooooooo wrong.
 
more than 90 individual wilderness games

last i looked

only 7 or 8 gate designs though ... that's 90+ Sigil Stones 😛
[and great gear]

and after you learn to run thru the Lava straight for the Tower Portal .. closing a gate takes 5 minutes total - on average ... you don't have to fight *any* enemies ... just grab the stone
[and go into the light]
:Q
 
I saw a number online somewhere that said around 100 gates.
But you only need to do a couple of them for the main quest.
The rest are for side quests and just plain looting.

Also, up until that magic number, you spawn about two more gates every time you close one.

I forgot about this map. Have been using it for a while and its AWESOME!
Shows everything in the original game, no patches or mods.
 
I really need to play through this game again (and buy Knights of the Nine). I bet it looks a whole lot prettier on my new Athlon64 4000+ and AMD X1950 Pro 512mb versus my old A64 3000 / nvidia 6800GT 256mb.
 
have all the *secrets* been found? ...

the last one i reported to the official forums was 'Quake Ruin' ... about 5 months after the game was released

i doubt there were very few *discoveries* in the last 6 months

and it DOES look a LOT nicer on my x1950p than my x850xt ... although the 6800 class already had HDR you now you also get *extra* with the AA+HDR
 
IIRC, there are an infinite number. Everytime you close one, another pops up somewhere else. I, myself closed about 36 and stopped cause there are essentially 3/4 unique Oblivion Plain maps.
 
*wrong*

there are a *limited number*

they do NOT respawn .. although another gate may open in [almost] the same spot ... if they do, it is a *bug*

i believe it's 7 maps
