I don't know any other things yet but that it's going to be similar to The Elder Scrolls IV - Oblivion (but way smaller)... Here's what I've got for now:  It's supposed to be a piece of street and there will be also water in the sand area in future...  I'm going to make small village there and after I have some basic things, I'm gonna start working with a player model...

Not to be to blunt but 'The Elder Scrolls IV - Oblivion.' can i assume you a one man team, to make a game of that size would take ages ,and from what you have it looks like it will take a very long time .
I would advise rethinking this...

Ok, you didnt mention smaller in the first post, maybe when i see some screens of something more than just some rectangular models

way to go, taking all hope out of a newbie without not even reading his first post. i say go for it. try it. limit yourself to one town or whatever, just do it. skip all the graphics shaders and whatever, just go for the code of it. after you coded a working copy, try yoruself with the graphics. but dont be disapointed if it wont work out the way you want

Wow! What negativity. You just skim and see "Oblivion" and then a simple level screen shot and you qrite, "You will fail. You won't finish. And my favorite, exactly what you just said."
My best advice, don't listen to negative people like this. I know this because I am one of these people and I find it best not to listen to myself.
Oh, and Oblivion isn't the only deep real time RPG out there. Have you ever heard of Sword of Vermilion? It is a 16 bit Sega Genesis game but all the battles are real time it is very simple in comparison to Oblivion. My other advice is perhaps making an updated version in the style of this game, add more elements of Oblivion to it. Replace the overhead view with a first person cam. Perhaps copy the simple spells.
I own both games and they do have a lot in common yet one is very simple and the other is extremely complex. I have no doubt you could do something in between. Best of luck to ya.

yeah thats right! You guys see "Oblivion" and take it for a huge game, but he said it was going to be way smaller!
