In my opinion leveling is too fast and a simple solution would be to either add an exp slider or maybe even have the option to turn off leveling from non major skills. I know mods fix this on pc but console players need a solution too.

Another gripe that could be solved by doing the first thing I mentioned is that it’s way too easy to get 100 in multiple stats which quickly makes any +stat gear worthless in the early/mid game.

Got oblivion for the switch a few days ago. It’s honestly not as bad as people make it out to seem. I like it but it DOES have its problems just like how it does on the other consoles. The hitches aren’t rly bad (for me). They don’t happen too much. and the frames don’t drop that as much. What I DONT like is how things in the world just pop up outta nowhere. Like a tree or bush just spawns in right in front of you. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth. But other than that, it’s not bad. Not saying that the hitches and frame rate dropping aren’t a problem, but it’s just not that bad to me. I’ve been enjoying it. What do yall think ?

Does anyone have any tips tricks or the like sidenote I watched my brother and a friend play the original and I remember this gruff guy in the arena saying YOUR NOT IN YOUR BATTLE RAIMENT and would not letcha fight until you had the full set on also are there executions like in Skyrim

If I ever hear him say fearsome mudcrabs again he’s getting bonked. I’ve been neglecting that out of respect. He even crushed my crustacean! We had a crab for each person and that last one was mine! I was gonna name him Mr. Krabs.

Hail citizens. I was trying to see how I could get some local wildlife to follow us and figured I could do it while getting a swim in. You know, since it’s the only way to get clean! Tried having Pally stay still with me and let the crabs kinda mingle onto the screen. This is what happened instead. I like to let the NPC’s kind of make up their own mind. I have no idea why he went down after the crabs but it’s definitely within his character.

There’s something about Oblivion Remastered that makes it feel grounded (almost like Kingdom Come Deliverance 2), until you start noticing the finer details or end up talking to a lizard person, an orc, an elf, or an invisible gardener. This is without mentioning the creatures you can find in nature.

Games like Fable or Final Fantasy feel much more overtly cartoony and gamey by comparison. Oblivion somehow presents itself like a serious, grounded world, then the ambience and soundtrack kick in and it becomes pure fantasy.

It genuinely just feels like The Lord of the Rings in video game form (super obvious in parts of the main quest). It’s effortlessly immersive.

The Guild said they're under the protection of the Gray Fox so I thought killing them might make him show up...

This was a little while ago when the Oblivion remastered dropped and since I hadn't played before I fell in love immediately. It was a little early on in my playthrough so I didn't have everything down, including combat. I was walking around Blackwood I believe and noticed like three trolls spotted me and knowing I probably couldnt take them at the time I start hauling ass, all through the forests and woods. With the trolls still on my tail I found this little bar shack and thinking I could lose them in there (I was wrong) because I ran inside seeing the patrons in it, and not long after I got in the trolls broke in. I ran upstairs to the lodging rooms and hid, hoping the npcs would gang up on them. All the noises and shouts i knew they were getting slaughtered downstairs. Soon the trolls lost interest and left, I go downstairs and its just alllll bodies. NOT ONE TROLL

I'm having all sorts of trouble getting mods to work. I started off with Vortex, then someone told me that didn't work for Oblivion. Then I was looking at some old threads and they mentioned Oblivion Mod Manager. Then one of them said Mod Organizer 2 was the way to go. Then someone suggested Wyre Bash. I've tried them all and had problems with them all - mods all of a sudden not loading for no apparent reason.

I'm using the Steam version of Oblivion...what am I doing wrong? Which mod manager should I use? Or should I just manually install them all?

I tried the remaster but it runs like shit on my series s so I'm just gonna play the original. Does it include the dlc or do I need to buy it (not too big a problem, only about $17 for the two main dlc's)

Heya ! I felt the sudden urge to replay Oblivion (the OG) (don't think my laptop can handle the remaster) but while I want to have a pretty vanilla experience, I'd love to know if there's a mod that overhauls the insufferable dynamic scaling. So : anyone?

Also if you have mod suggestions for an improved vanilla experience, I'm all ears.

Thanks!

Sometimes it is said that Luck works in round numbers only as it its bonus is only 0.4 of its value -50 and it's not an integer if the value is not round. Does the not round Luck realy have no effect in comparison to the round one? Is 62 Luck has totally the same effect as 60 Luck or will there be some imperceptible increase? I know that Luck is useless anyway, but i need to know if not round Luck works in theory. Would it be better to icrease Personality (which is useless too) by 8 than have +2 Luck but it's not round?

I though the spawn point after using the trapdoor should be right next to the Button to open up the lock room with the boss chest? But I keep spawning in the room behind the wall every time I used the trap door. I've even used the main entrance a few times and use the button a few times already. But once I reset the dungeon and use the trap door. I'm still spawning behind the wall and not next to the button.

I had never played a TES game before and knew nothing about *Oblivion*, but I decided to give it a try. I have a Nitro V15 (with a 3050 GPU), which causes the game's extremely dated engine to crash—on top of the countless quest-breaking bugs I’d heard about. Personally, I *always* prefer playing vanilla, but it seems Bethesda won't let me; knowing about the bugs and crashes—compounded by the fact that the game is old while my laptop is modern—I saw there were mods designed to fix the engine and bugs, like the famous UOP. I installed the UOP along with two or three mods that just fix the engine, plus the 4GB patch. However, after putting over 60 hours into my save, I discovered the UOP wasn't as purist as I thought; I saw people mentioning various unnecessary changes, though I heard it wasn't as extreme as what they did with *Skyrim*. I’m sharing all this to get to the main point and ask the experienced players here: do the UOP's unnecessary changes actually ruin the game experience? I see people saying "vanilla always," but if you have a newer machine, you're going to suffer more than the people who played it back in the day—you end up dealing with incompatibility issues on top of the native bugs and problems.

It would be cool to start a discussion about this topic on this post; I also plan to explore it in other games (since I intend to start playing Fallout: New Vegas and Skyrim).

Hmmm?
