Good channel to help with installing these mods.

>>16098013

nice aggro, faggot.

orcs rule.

>>16097929

You can't fix Oblivion.

>>16098041

Oblivion has enough rpg elements left over to be fixable.

Strange list OP, I don't see all the sex mods

>>16098081

Believe or not, some people here actually like to play video games, not beat their dick all day

Oblivion armor looks really dumb, If it weren't for that I'd give it a try.

>>16098087

That's strange, what value is there in a bethesda game other than to beat your dick to abominations labeled "SEXY GIRL CONNOR"

>>16098074

Yes.

Make a fem orc and rape the male breton population. Steal all the shotas from the towns of oblivion and send them back covered in your fem orc juices. Dominate your male companions into submissive boy toys.

>>16098087

Are you even posting on the same board?

>>16098259

I do, but I suck at making even a decent thread. Plus sometimes I play a game that just isn't that good and isn't worth more then a couple hours at best.

>>16098312

>OP I'd recommend XPUpdate or whatever it is as well. I want to replay it now.

I usually just powerlevel and find easy ways to level a major skill, anon. There's a daedric shrine where you can continuously whack worshippers to level combat skills. I don't rely on it, but when leveling is a bietch that needs to grind – I do it.

Besides, I don't want anymore mods. I actually ended up taking two mods out after playing a bit longer. SM Combat and Knock Enemies Unconscious. My game still is riddled with CTDs from time to time. I try to use less mods to prevent crashing anyways. Those two mods proved undesirable after a small playtime.

haha reddit gaming

you forgot the best mod

>>16098517

Oscure's Oblivion Overhaul.

If you want to avoid crashing, make sure nothing is running in background and not to alt tab while in-game.

>>16099825

Bump because you're an autist.

>>16100115

Nigga, you stupid.

>>16098025

>>16098074

But the best races in Oblivion are Redgaurd and Argonian anyway so why pick Orc at all?

>>16100574

Argonians were only good in morrowind, and before. Red guards were always "we wuz sword singers and sheeit."

>>16100574

That's an odd way to say Bretons. Fucking 50% magic resist and +50 magicka

>>16100869

Argonians have Water Breathing Poison Immunity and 75% Disease resistance

Redgaurds only have 75% Disease and Poison resistance but make up for it by having the best starting stats in game

>+10 Strength

>+10 Endurance

<-10 Intelligence

<-10 Willpower

<-10 Personality

>+5 Light Armor

>+5 Heavy Armor

>+5 Mercantile

>+10 Blade

>+10 Blunt

>+10 Athletics

Also they have the Adrenaline Rush Power which I will let speak for itself

for 60 seconds on Self, once per day:

>Fortify Agility 50 points

>Fortify Endurance 50 points

>Fortify Speed 50 points

>Fortify Strength 50 points

>Fortify Health 25 points

Pick the Warrior birthsign and you;ve bumped yourself up even more but whatever you do don't waste the birthsign on Shadow like I did in my first playthrough

>>16102310

Get Manimarco Revisited

and for the sake of your eyes OCO

>>16102310

OOO and having MMM too makes the game very difficult to play. I recommend variety mods like Alluring Alcohol, Alluring Potions, and Immersive Weapons 2 with an OOO mod patch. You have to replace the ESP. It should also fix a technical problem it has with wyre bash.

The thing about modding this game is you don't want too many mods. Before making this thread, I actually had CTD issues and had to delete a few lighting mods and read up on it. None of the major mods are taken out, but leftover mods I had installed after a dark dungeons to help… like starlight, nighteye, and brighter torches. Those were no longer needed. The game already runs smoother with them gone.

>>16102566

What's so special about Manimarco Revisited? I admit Oblivion Character Overhaul 2 is pretty good and compliments the vanilla design.

>>16102566

If you get the XP mod, Reguards become fucking broken assholes. I started a straight down the line female warrior with a sword focus. I ended up running around at the speed of sound in full ebony bitch slapping everything in one hit. Felt really good turning Dagon into goo by punching his shins like motherfucking Kenshiro.

>>16102584

Manny Markers revisited brings him back to how he was shown in Daggerfall. He's a proper looking Lich king God and he has his strippers back. It also extends his dungeon, beefs his minions and makes his fight virtually impossible unless you know how to expertly counter powerful magicks.

Mod recommendation

>>16102584

>What's so special about Manimarco Revisited

>He doesn't know

it's an actual hard as fuck boss battle with a Lich

>>16102598

>Become

>Implying they weren't already

but I'll give you props for playing a female since they're weaker

>>16102607

They made the most important struggle in the Elder Scrolls such a fucking joke in vanilla Oblivion. I can't believe they thought that a two second "fight" against a weak faggoty high elf was good enough for the God of Undeath itself.

Threadly reminder that if you play a beast race you're a furry. Not surprising knowing the composition of /v/ :^).

The mod author said he was working on a new version and to not use this one but he said that years ago. I haven't encountered any bugs with it myself in any of the playthroughs I used it but if you're worried the alternative is

>Battlehorn Castle Upgraded

I don't use it because it's a bit much and over the top for me

>Frostcrag Reborn De-Isolated

Massive Overhauls

>FCOM

takes a long time to get everything for it but there are a few ways to do it there's even one installer version out there that does it for you but I think it requires you not to have other mods before you do it

>Maskar's Oblivion Overhaul

Hard to find mods

>Bladesong

I don't know what's up with it's author he put it up then took it down for years then suddenly put it back up for a while then hid it again. I will say this though, still the best companion mod for Oblivion

Mods I've heard are good but haven't tried myself

>Oblivion Scaling Unclusterfucked

>>16102607

Female orcs aren't that much weaker. It's 5 less willpower. It must make up since they don't lose 10 less intelligence.

Post your builds

–Class Name–

–Birthsign–

Anyone but Shadow

>>16106116

Better starting attributes but the Redgaurds have the advantage on both racial bonus resistances and starting skill bonus since Orcs don't even have a bonus to blade and the best weapons in game are swords and on top of that Berserk drains Agility while Adrenaline Rush is a straight up buff

>>16102632

For anons that have not played oblivion understand "2 second fight" is no exaggeration. The entire story line hypes this guy up, and when I fought him I attacked with my lightning staff killing manimarco in two hits. The entire fight lasted two seconds.

I still want a good list of porn mods.

>>16097929

Oblivion XP

Skyrim is the best TES game

Thats how bad Tod franchise is

>>16106364

>Sexdarkness/Sexlivion

>LAPF

It's a requirement for the next mod

>Lovers Situations

there's a voiced version if you want it edits the vanilla voices to fit it's dialogue

>>16106517

Skyrim is very reductionist compared to Oblivion. You don't even get a hand-to-hand combat skill. You could make the case that Oblivion is the middle ground between Morrowind and Skyrim. Also, a lot of people say they prefer the dark and bleak atmosphere of Skyrim. I prefer the fairy tale and bright climate of Oblivion.

>>16106818

> You could make the case that Oblivion is the middle ground between Morrowind and Skyrim

If Skyrim is 100 and Morrowind is 0 then Oblivion is 75.

>>16106979

>The empire you spent 4 games saving, uniting or otherwise improving is tattered ruins on the edge of collapse

>What you did in the third game has fucked the entire nation of Morrowind over

>Aldmeri dominion forms wars against the empire and forces them to sign a treaty where they ban the worship of Tiber Septim whose armor helped you save the empire last time

>The empire is left with only three nations after Hammerfell left when the Dominion tried to collect it in th treaty

>One of those nations is in a Civil War to secede/

>The entire City of Markarth and it's questlines

>Thieves Guild is no longer a bunch of ebin Robin Hoods just scumbag criminals with zero attempts to justify their actions

>Mages Guild fell completely out of favor splitting the study of magic into two new institutions bickering over political power

>Companions the warrior guild of skyrim the home of the nords a race of warriors are barred from the nord after life due to a curse

it's under several layers of dull and bland but it's there

>>16107053

Don't get me started I posted my massive autistic screed on how Skyrim should've been/could be in the TES 8 thread a while back

>>16107061

6*

>>16107074

–NEW GAME START–

>Slave inside a cell in the basement of a house in Whiterun

>Character Creation is instant like in Oblivion

>Movement is granted right after character creation (again like in Oblivion)

>You hear noise coming from outside the cell Guards breaking in to the house and arresting your owner and freeing you

>One Guard is an asshole and makes a racist comment about whichever race you pick (if you're a fellow nord he calls you a weak excuse of one)

>The other Guard shuts him up then helps you out and explains the situation to you

>You are broke

>The City is in massive upheaval (haves and have nots, Jarls Decision to stay out of the war is very costly large amounts of Guards are conscripted peasants unable to afford taxes)

>Neither of these two support any side

>Because you have no money you can't afford to stay at the inn but seem physically capable (and they're desperate enough to accept anyone) you can follow them and join the Whiterun Guards

>Joining the Whiterun Guard acts as both the Tutorial and The Start of the Main Quest

>(The Whiterun Guard quests don't need to be new they can be repackaged Whiterun Quests like beating Mikeal One of the Quests will be The Golden Claw)

>Whiterun is a much larger City in this version with Cloud district alone being the size of the vanilla City

>You are not allowed into the Cloud District at the start of the Game (The Companions hall is in the Wind District)

>After doing a couple of Quests and advancing in Rank with the Guards you will be summoned by The Jarl

>The Jarl tells you that something has decimated one of his watchtowers and he's heard reports of a Dragon in his hold

>At first he sent a Guard to investigate who traced the sightings down to the inside of a cave

>The Jarl first sent a contingent of Guards in then when they didn't report back he hired the Companions

>He still hasn't heard back from them so he's sending the player to check on them

>The Player will see several corpses strewn around explaining why there are so few Companions in game

>When The Player enters the cave the entrance will collapse behind him

>The Dragon will be easier than later ones since it can't fly in the cave

>The Player will absorb it's soul as in the base game but there won't be any witnesses

>The Greybeards won't shout from High Hrothgar yet…

>The Player will return to Balgruuf and be made Thane

>The Player will receive messages from both General Tulius and Jarl Ulfric trying to get your attention and requesting an Audience

>The Greybeards will NOW Shout from High Hrothgar

–Civil War Changes–

>You could now defend Whiterun with either side because your Thaneship matters*

>Balgruuf will be truly neutral, he will take your advice on what side to choose and that will lock you in as supporting either the Empire or the Stormcloacks

>Both Leaders will make it clear that winning Whiterun means winning the War

>As with both Civil War mods (Open CW and CW Overhaul) you'll have a Battle in Either Riften or Markarth depending on which side you chose

>The New Great House Sadras will be allied with Ulfric and have a mushroom tower in Windhelm

>The Grey Quarter will have a Questline to restore the Old Arena in it called The Pit

>It will start out as something Ulfric wants to avoid doing (he wants strong and able warriors to fight for him in the war not risk themselves in the Arena to no benefit)

>The Player will be able to turn Ulfric around on it with a Speechcheck

>If the player fails the Speechcheck they will still be able to open it illegally and convince Ulfric later that…

>The Pit can become a recruitment hub for the Stormcloacks attracting warriors from across Tamriel and previously unconvinced Nords

>The Pit would provide the Stormcloacks with proven and skilled warriors for every soldier from his ranks that tests himself and losses more will succeed and gain valuable experience from it

>The success of the Pit would bring in money to the Grey Quarter bettering race relations between the Nords and Dunmer

note* There will be one scenario where you still attack Whiterun see Daedric Quests Changes

>>16107074

>>16107110

–Pantheon–

>Each of the Major Cities includes/will include a temple to one of the Divines (like in Oblivion)

>The Divines will be from the Nordic Pantheon instead of the Cyrodilic

>Each City will have its Patron Deity and Temple

>Whiterun will have Kyne(areth), Riften will have Mara, Markarth will have Dibella, Windhelm will of course have Talos, Falkreath will have Shor, Winterhold will have Tsun with the rest of the Pantheon falling out of favor

>The Temple in Markarth will receive a massive overhaul to fit Dibella's place in the Nordic pantheon it will now be an art gallery with Paintings on the walls the Priestesses will mock your "Cyrodillic misconceptions" if you ask about their "other services"

>The Temple will not be closed (it was likely closed because the devs didn't want to risk the outrage from fox news like Bioware did)

>This would also explain the ostracization Helga fears if her Faith is discovered she worships the Cyrodilic version of Dibella in The Stormcloack Riften which worships the Nordic Pantheon

>Shors Worshipers have to meet in Secret due to their place in Imperial Territory they are led by the Former Jarl Dengeir (they will publically worship Shor if the City is taken by The Stormcloacks)

>Stuhns Worshipers will still be active as bandits and will be the ones that kidnap your wife from the Hearthfire homesteads

–Daedric Quest Changes–

>"The Whispering Door" Quest won't just be restored it will be expanded

>When the Player goes to the door Mephala will tell them about intrigue in the Jarls Court

>Hrongar is worried his brother won't back the empire and Vignar is worried he will betray the nords for it

>Both men covet the Throne (this quest makes Irelith's Dialogue about being wary of everyone even allies make more sense)

>instead of telling them to open the Door Mephala will instruct the player to "pull on the strings of this web" and herald the Jarls demise

>This Quest can be done both before and after the player meets with the faction they want to choose in the Civil War as well as after the Battle to Defend Whiterun when that side is chosen

>there are five possible scenarios in this quest

>1) Manipulate Vignar into killing Balgruuf and frame Hrongar

>2) Manipulate Hrongar into killing Balgruuf and frame Vignar

>3) Manipulate Vignar and report him

>4) Manipulate Hrongar and report him

>5) Return to the Door after finding out what her influence is doing/fail the speech checks to manipulate and reject her

>In all of these Scenarios the Player as both a former High Ranking Gaurd and Thane will be charged with leading the investigation

>1 and 4 will make Vignar Jarl

>2 and 3 will make Hrongar Jarl

>In 1 and 2 Mephala will retain control over both people and be Most pleased

>In 3 and 4 Mephala will retain control only over the imprisoned one and be appeased

>In 5 Mephala will be outraged and will influence Balgruufs Children to kill him (Like the original concept)

>After 5 the Player will be able to decide the new Jarl as the Third Thane

>If The Player is a Stormcloack and Hrongar is made Jarl then they will need to attack Whiterun like in the Vanilla game

>If the Player has defended the City as a Stormcloack than Hrognar will storm out and move to the Blue Palace

>If the Player has defended the City with the Legion than Vignar will step down as Thane

>Both of the above will alter the Quest and make the original planned ending the only one

–Faction Changes–

>The Questlines for all of the factions will be greatly expanded no longer will the "five quests to become Guildmaster" meme be true! instead things will go back to the Oblivion progression system

>Each Guild will have various ranks for you to advance through (Like The Thieves Guild in the vanilla game)

>>16107074

>>16107110

>>16107111

–Companions–

>Throughout the game there will be this real theme of The Nords losing their way and their culture being in decline

>The Companions being Werewolves will be played up.

"The Companions are nearly five thousand years old. this matter of the beastblood has only troubled us for a few hundred"

>It will be explained that during the Oblivion Crisis when all of Skyrim(and the rest of Tamriel)was under siege the Glemoril Witches came to them with an offer

>The Companions would be imbued with the power to fight this threat (Lycanthropy) but in exchange the souls of the Circle would be Hircines

>The Companions of the Oblivion Era Accepted this Pact but it still haunts the faction to this day

>The new dialogue will make it clear just how tragic this is.

>The Circle the paragons of the Nords held up as shinning exemplars of everything an honorable nord should be to enter Sovngarde the eternal rest of the nords are barred from it.

>Making the younger recruits hopes for advancement all the more tragic "This group… this family… this band… this is the best thing I've ever been a part of. The oldest fighting group in Skyrim, and nothing but glory from Ysgramor's day to our own. To be counted in that line is a bit of immortality. Even if I never see Sovngarde, I'll have that much."

>The introduction to the companions might change slightly to massivly depending on how far along the player is in the Main Quest ("I've never even heard of this outsider"- None "I think I've seen him doing the rounds"-Starting Gaurd Quests "S/He's… The Thane"-Dragon's Den "S/He's… The Dragonborn"-The Way of The Voice "By Shor it's Ysmir him/herself!")

>The last three reactions skip the first quest although you are still given the second quest

>A Radiant Brawl quest to test your restraint with Vilkas accompanying you(after what happened with Uthgerd they're very cautious)

>Proving Honor happens differently you will no longer get trapped and be treated to a cutscene where an obscure order unable to afford armor better than fur, know a secret kept from the entire country, attack Farkas on the judgment that wolf armor is for werewolves(Silver Hand may or may not be cut entirely)

>The Secret will be known by the Library of Julianos who are helping the Circle look for a cure but it will be kept from the other Junior members and the Jarl

>Dustman's Cairn will be like other Dungeons perhaps with a Unique Spider Boss (to explain why Farkas develops a fear of them)

>Keeping with the extended questlines the means of advancement here will be Collecting the fragments of Wuuthrad the Player will be able to track their progression not just by being given new ranks but also by looking at Wuuthrads mantle and seeing it become more and more complete

>There will be no raid on the Companions where a group of bandit tier enemies somehow make it past the walls and guards to breach the Companions hall in the Clouds district NEXT TO THE JARLS PALACE

>Instead Kodlak will have turned into a werewolf by his curse and started a rampage while you were gone forcing the other members of the Circle to cut him down

>They keep the secret by telling the other Companions that Kodlak was the first slain by the beast

>The Circle takes the body (to the underforge presumably but the details don't matter) make/wait for it to revert then give Kodlaks body to the Priests for his Funeral

>The Funeral scene happens the same way as the vanilla game

>The Final Quest is the same however now the final promotion will feel earned due to the longer more involved Questline giving a real sense of progression

>>16107074

>>16107110

>>16107111

>>16107114

–The School of Julianos/The Collage of Winterhold–

>Each City will have its own School of Julianos (similar to how each city in Oblivion had its own chapter of the mages guild) and like in oblivion they will each specialize in a School of Magic

>Taverns and Inns will no longer refer you to the Collage when you ask to be taught magic instead they'll point you to the School

>The School will tell you about the collage but will also warn you not to bother going until you have a recommendation from each one otherwise you won't be allowed in

>Unlike Oblivion recommendations aren't written letters instead Each Head Teacher will cast a Spell on you after you've met their personal requirment

>Faralda will no longer be standing on the bridge (The Professor of Destruction has better things to do than wait for you to start a questline!)

>The Collage will have an enchantment on the gate* and the bridge itself might test you

>The Enchantment will respond to the various spells mentioned earlier if they are not detected the player will hear a voice telling them that they must complete the Scholars Path under Julianos otherwise the gate will open

note* it will be possible to Cheat and enter anyway which would be considered legitimate as Mage must be cunning as well as intelligent and the ability to sidestep Bureaucracy and get what you want regardless is a valued trait among both your peers and superiors

>Due to the expansion The Collage is no longer the place to START studying Magic rather it is where the bright and gifted take their talents to the next level the player is still given a tour of the premises upon entry but they will not take a class so remedial that it will teach them a basic ward after

>Most of the Court Wizards are Graduates from the Collage

>Mages outside of the Academic system are ostracized and are treated as untrustworthy if not with outright hostility and disdain (Think Falion in Morthal)

>In Contrast Mages IN the Academic system are highly respected with radiant dialogue like "You're quite the handsome/beautiful young scholar"

>Each School will have its own specialization

>Whiterun will have Restoration, Windhelm will have Destruction, Markarth will have Conjuration, Riften will have Illusion and Solitude will have Alteration

>The Largest Questline change inside the collage itself will happen when returning from "The Staff of Magus" The "Magus field" will now Cover the whole City and Entering it will be like entering other instances (dungeons and interiors)

>Inside the Field the player will enter Old Winterhold during the Great Collapse showing that it was caused by The Eye going out of control in the future (your present)

>Entering The Collage leaves you unsure if you're back in the present or sill in the past only you and Arcano are in the room

>After defeating Arcano an Arcane explosion happens leading you to a loading screen You wake up with the Entire Staff celebrating your Victory the Psijic Order arrive you have the option to ask "Was the destruction of Winterhold due to the Eye?" and reassure you that you are blameless they've aided you to mitigate the damage.

>The Questline is complete however you are not made Archmage.

>Like the Thieves Guild Advancement within the faction after a Certain point (Entering the Collage) will not be based on the Questline rather other objectives

>The Player will only be able to become Archmage After completing ALL of the Master Ritual Quests thus truly earning the rank of Archmage

>>16107119

You were warned

>>16107119

You want to see more autism like this? Look up this guy called Zakharon. He made up to at least 30 hours going over an ideal Oblivion and Skyrim game. Was really interesting to hear his ideas on what would make for interesting quests, factions and worldbuilding. His biggest point is putting the Divines at the forefront by having huge temples and entire cities devoted to their chosen Divine. He even brings out the Imperial Cult as the major religion in the Empire instead of the Nine. I think the series is called "If Skyrim/Oblivion was good."

>>16107124

So I don't get why this is TES6 and not just TES5 again

>>16107133

That was his Skyrim. He was saying that he posted it in the TES VI thread.

>>16107137

What? No I didn't. I did not realize that someone else brought him up.

>>16107027

The setting isn't even that awful, it's how none of your choices in the game matter since the game is so lazily made. Everything being degraded and the world turning shittier while the (((Aldmeri))) subverts every other culture and society is fine, but you can't do anything about it. You can't do anything to change the world in a meaningful way for better or worse.

And the same could be said for other TES games, but those games never gave me the illusion of choice.

So which version of the TES IV engine has the most fun game after modding the shit out of it? Is there a modpack+game I can download/pirate since I have never bothered/playeda TES IV game before since they are all shit by default so I heard. I don't want to mess with modding it myself because fuck that timesink for a shit game.

>>16107142

I'm fully aware of that

see my autistic screed above.

the reason I'd change it that way is that both the quests in Dragonsreach would massively impact the game. The Civil War would be decided on the first change and the status of Whiterun on the second.

>>16107148

You must have me mistaken for someone else. I didn't even post in the last thread. I just remember I watched that guys series after reading the autism wall that anon posted. I think some of his opinions are faggoty but overall his ideas on Elder Scrolls are interesting if only for a "different perspective" piece.

When I say TES IV I mean a game by bethesida for role playing like skyrim.

>>16107152

>>16107160

Depends on how much Roleplaying matters to you.

from a sheer gameplay perspective Skyrim is the best my personal favorite mod for it is SkyRe but my favorite Magic mod is Ordinator so I'm stuck between deciding to play a full mage or a warrior/thief hybrid

>>16107116

>>16107119

Oh I forgot my changes to Dragonborn

–Dragonborn Changes–

>A day or two after Dragonslayer the >Greybeards will shout "YSMIR" prompting a quest there

>Upon arrival you will find a large number of >Dragon Cultists laying siege on High Hrothgar

>After defeating them Areingar will tell you that they are bowing to a new Dragonborn in Solstheim

>The new Dragon Cult is digging up the Dragon Mounds to create Skeletal Dragons

>The Dragon Cult will be destroying the All-Maker Stones

>The All-Maker Stones are keeping Miraak sealed within his temple and containing his influence

I would've made it so if you didn't have the Dragonborn DLC Dragons would stop being hostile after you complete the main quest recognizing you as the supreme Dov like how the blight storms stop after beating Morrowinds main quest.

Obviously the same would happen after beating Dragonborn

>>16097929

Fuck, I pirated this shit forever ago and haven't played it yet. The whole idea was to mod it, maybe I should just give it a go.

Thanks for giving me something to do OP.

>>16107186

Be sure to have the DLC too. I think the mods require it.

>>16107186

Mod recommendation list here >>16102885

>>16107185

Nah, more like Dragonborn should have been about both the original concept also going around gathering former Alduin loyalists to have a huge dragon battle between your dragons and miraak's.

>>16107193

>the original concept

what do you mean by that?

>>16107201

Keep it solstheim, keep the dumbmer suffering and keep miraak being trapped in hermamora's realm.

>>16107207

<dumbmer

Which N'wah let the property on the computer?

>>16107207

Yeah I never said don't do that

You do remember how it starts is the Dragon Cultists attacking you right?

So I'm suggesting they attack the Greybeards instead in a big battle and as extra incentive Miraak will keep sending Souless Skeletal Dragons after you until you sail to Solethsiem

>>16107228

I think the DLC should start after you defeat alduin. Since it would explain why exactly now he appears, as its because of the power vacuum.

>>16107245

Even Azura does more for Men and Mer than Talos or any of those faggot Aedra. Imperial empire? More like Imperi-Altmer.

>>16107278

>Trying to make the good Men of Tamriel forget that it was the Aedra and their pact with the Dragonborn that kept the marble jaws of Oblivion Closed

>Trying to make the good Men of Tamriel forget that when the Dragonborn slipped in lighting the Dragonfires Akatosh himself manifested to make Dagon fuck off and sealed Mundus from Oblivion again

Talos help me Elf I will not tolerate this God-Hating heresy

>>16100891

It's not even fun broken like morrowind, it's just annoying broken and everything looks like shit.

>>16107303

Yeah, and it only took them long enough for half of Tamriel to burn to the ground before finding the time to seal it off. And now where is Talos' empire? A shadow of its former glory, and at barely the age of a young Telvanni wizard.

By Oblivion, the Argonians were a better help than the Dragonborn's empire. Had we all kept them as a slave army we'd have no need for the Aedra to "save" us.

>>16102607

That vanilla manimarco fight was so underhwelming. I remember being a kid and thinking "wait, this dude is supposed to be a legend, for like hundreds of years and that's all he had?". Then later I found out later that he is technically a god as well.

Also keep in mind this doesn't happen in Morrowind so it doesn't happen at all, because no game in this series ever came out afterward and nothing can change my mind about that.

>>16102566

Redguards are boring as shit, and I say that as someone who likes to play the out-of-the-box Warrior class. Straight combat stat/skill bonuses across the board, win-button racial power, and autistic magic hating lore. The only interesting thing you can do with them are sneaky, light armoured melee types like scouts and rogues, which makes me feel like I'm railroaded into playing TeSA: Redguard.

>>16098087

Wait, you're telling me that "video games" isn't a code word for furiously masturbating? Then what did we do at the last meetup!?

>>16108682

Just don't get too many mods. Oblivion modding is prone to crashing. The less mods, the better. Get the mods most essential to you and trim it. Get patches and stuff to help the game actually function. Make a batched patch. So on…

>>16109156

Kill La Kill was great, eat a dick /a/utist.

>OBSE not working when using the tester.

I wonder if its the pirated version I have. Weird. Anyone else ever have similar issues?

>>16109976

OBSE just doesn't work with Mod Organizer 2 there's a workaround to make it work with one but by default it doesn't work

>>16109976

Hmm.

Now its crashing when I try to launch obse_loader from the oblivion folder. I tried running it in compatibility mode.

Fuck man I just wanted to play videogames.

>>16110094

are you using Oblivion Mod Manager? if so just start the game normally and OBSE will just run with it

>>16100062

Mein Neger!

>>16110122

But the checker says it isnt running. I might just say fuck it and roll with it.

>>16110239

if you use Mods that need OBSE that'l fuck you way worse so make sure your loadout doesn't have any

>>16098259

HABEEB IT

>>16110257

God dammit. I don't want to give todd money, I don't know what the issue is.

>>16110342

Alright, the obse says it isnt failing when I look at the log so something else is making it crash just after it launches. When I launch from the mod organizer it works fine. Maybe I'll just install some mods and see what breaks or not.

>>16110398

if it's crashing at launch that's either no OBSE or some type of mod conflict usually the former

>>16110428

Lets see. Deleted the folder in mygames, ran the obse loader and it started. Ok. Ran the launcher through mod organizer with alternate start on and obse test plugin. Says it cannot detect OBSE. Go back and try to run the OBSE loader again, crashes.

I feel like I am fucking something up but I don't know what.

>>16110506

Some Mods have dependencies if your using nexus each mod will tell you if it requires anything in its requirement section

>>16110521

I'm done for tonight. Maybe its the mod organizer I'm using who knows. I can get it to work until I start using that. I'll fuck with it tomorrow.

>>16110556

Oblivion Mod Manager is decent enough. If your pirated it, then maybe it's that. I'm pretty sure there's a tutorial on Youtube that knows better, or a resource on Nexus Mods.

Is there away to remove Argonians and Kajjit from the game? Aside from the obvious that is

>>16111840

I listened to the man with the anime backround and that worked. I should have done that from the start. It works, time to get some mods.

Alright, I downloaded most from

>>16102885

I don't know about FCOM though. Any other big mods like that?

>>16113663

I just said right under it Maskars Oblivion Overhaul

have fun

>>16111851

You'd have to go in and manually change the race of each argonian/khajiit and also change the character generator to never generate them ever. I don't know why you would do that though because destroying property is always fun. You would also miss my favorite joke in the game. "Why do Khajiit lick their butts? To get the taste of khajiit cooking out of their mouths."

So whats the difference between OOO and MOO? They are both overhauls, is one better than another?

>>16114278

They can work with each other I've only used OOO with the rest of FCOM so I've forgotten what it specifically added but I can tell you MOO adds things like Bounty Boards both add enemy NPC factions that have their won "questlines" Nothing voiced for OOO (didn't make it far in my MOO run to check) but it does pay out in unique gear.

OOO fixes the vanilla problem of bandits with insane gear (so does Unclusterfucked but that came years later) OOO drastically changes the level scalling and that's why it is/was so loved it fixed the games biggest problem while MOO is designed to work with it and can be slotted in to almost any loadout since it was built for max compatiblity including like I said a Loadout with OOO. MOO removes waiting and makes you have to sleep instead if you want time to pass among other changes but it's mostly focused on encounters and has a faction system

BOC

>>16114349

>unclusterfucked

From a quick look is this just OOO but more modern?

>>16114349

Alright, so I can use both. I don't know if I like some of the monsters the monster mod adds, they look out of place. I got most of the ones suggested and and looking through >>16114349 list.

Going to try to not go balls to the walls yet but I want something new.

>>16114437

It's one part of OOO.

Vanilla Combat Enhanced is another part.

like the last O suggests it's an Overhaul so it did many things if you only want some parts of what it did but not others then you can dig around to find mods like the two I said above.

I just found out recently that OOO has a new version by a new author I THINK it still works with FCOM but some of it's addons (the creature one and Shivering Isles) explicitly state that they don't but the Equipment add on does.

>>16114439

The Vampirism mod I stated above changes that playstyle drastically

Most of the changes FCOM adds are Enemy and Equipment based if you want to feel the gameplay change MOO does that in certain ways, it adds lock bashing , the ability to play dead and I already mentioned that it removed the ability to wait so you can't heal from it and have to sleep to make time pass.

MOO also adds Mimics and makes Zombies keep coming back from the dead (looting their brains them keeps them down)

>>16114278

OOO makes the world "realistic" so to speak. It is for people who want bandits to be TOUGH when you first start off. You are basically a whimp in the beginning and you're an ordinary scrub like anyone else in the world. Then you advance. It's more appealing to roleplayers who want to understand the difficulty of their world and be a part of it.

>>16100297

<here's a build I made

>Needing help with a "build" on a single player proto-skyrim game designed for brain dead console kids.

The game is designed so that you basically can't lose.

>>16106979

Are you for real? Skyrim is fucking grim. Did you not pay attention at all? Just because the game is easy as shit doesn't mean the setting and story isn't horror material. Just off the top of my head:

>main quest is about a dragon that's devouring the souls of every nord that dies

>you can't actually stop this from happening, you can only delay it

>devoured souls are gone, they don't come back even when you "defeat" Alduin

>every faction except the College and the Stormcloaks/Imperials is actually a Daedric cult

>seriously, the Fighter's Guild stand-in is a fucking front for a Hircine cult

>the Thieve's Guild is actually a cult of Nocturnal, you have to sell your soul to complete the questline

>the Dark Brotherhood is the Dark Brotherhood, once you join, guards whisper "hail Sithis"

>Markarth in general is some pizza-gate tier bullshit, with guard disappearing people, haunted houses, the forsworn, and a fucking Namira cannibal cult

>the entire province is sitting on top of the Falmer, a subterranean civilisation of people-snatchers that wouldn't be out of place in a Lovecraft novel

I could honestly go on, Skyrim is almost ridiculously dark, but the mechanics of the game don't reinforce this in any way, or do justice to the setting.

Oh yeah, what are the de uggoification mods to make people not look like they have downs?

Oblivion Character Overhaul

>>16119937

>>16118531

Tutorial here.

>>16120240

I don't know who created those abominations but that artist should be fired when a modder can improve it in his spare time.

>>16120410

It is usually the other way around. People think the original Oblivion faces are abominations.

Honestly, if you spend enough time in character creation fleshing out the face, you can make anything look good in Oblivion.

>>16120440

you miss read his post he was saying the originals were shit and that Bethesda should be embarrassed a modder can do better in their spare time than an actual paid character designer.

Though to be fair OCO came out years after Skyrim and was just made for better hardware it's not like other NPC mods it needs another mod just to add the functionality to allow it to work

I remember adjusting the face of the Orc Male in character creation to maximize the size of his teeth and his jaw, which made him look very monster-like.

>>16121948

You can make so many goofy faces in Oblivion character creator.

>>16120240

Oh yea one last question. I see a bunch of texture packs but I don't want anything to jaring. Any ones that are good?

>>16123497

Alluring Potions and Alluring Alcohol spice things up. There are good armor and sign texture packs. I don't really care about "muh graphics". I value gameplay more than graphics.

>>16116593

You know what's really funny? How much straight-up TES porn there is on YouTube.

>Guards are a finite resource, right?

if they were they'd have names you've fucked yourself I'm afraid

I stopped playing Oblivion+Lovers when Skyrim came out, because I can't stand the uncanny valley faces.

Unfortunately, Oblivion has a better world and Lovers has more content than Skyrim+SexLab.

Now I'm tired of both because of how inconsequential my sexing/whoring/raping spree are.

Nobody gives a shit if I fuck a countess/jarl, cuck them, whore out their daughters.

It feels as if I'm the one who's being raped/cucked out of my time.

Now I'm just waiting for the big mods to come out.

Right now I'm waiting for Vicn to finish GLENMORIL + translators translating the whole mod.

That shit is just as banally written as Skyrim's Amorous Adventures.

I'm done with TES porn I suppose, since TES6 is going to be shittier than Skyrim.

I've perfected my waifu character, and now she can finally experience the world as a legit adventurer instead of being a cock-hungry slut.

>>16107027

Oblivion's network of thieves with no definitive headquarters was still more believable than some fabled sewer hideout den of thieves that guards didn't just raid and burn the fuck down.

Morrowind the design philosophy of a walking sim

>>16161458

Skyrim is trash.

>>16161682

>taking starting stats into account in anyway

The only benefit is the extra starting endurance and that becomes moot when you have 500hp and can heal that in 5 seconds. I'd rather be immune to magickal attacks using only one ring slot and use the remaining equipment slots for other things.

No.

>>16165497

I will grant you the combat system and the side quests. I do like the spell failure better than the level cap in Oblivion however.

>>16165508

and i'll concede Oblivions level scaling was horrid. what really pissed me off about the spell failure in Morrowind was the double dice roll.

if you want to immerse me in casting arcane destruction from the difficult to understand aether than fine make me roll to cast it fits in with the rest of the (hated) system but you can't take that back and say "also it's normal/weak enough that the rest of the usual rules of attack still apply" commit to one normal enough to be evaded or complex enough to fail/backfire I think Archery had a similar problem but I forget (Never did an archery build in any of the games)

>elder scrolls

>mods

https://exhentai.org/g/1369204/fba25a5ff5/

>>16165530

Its not as if the Oblivion or Skyrim combat systems were any better, not hitting something because of low skill and hitting something with an axe and doing no damage because of low skill and just as bad.

>>16165545

I honestly prefer the latter to the former. Like I said the counter intuitive element of it really bugs me.

When you have what is designed like an Action RPG function on the rules of a turn based RPG it just doesn't work, I can accept that failure/lack of results in both system is my fault for under leveling a skill but there is something frustrating about having so much of the process rely on Player skill rather than Character skill but having failure/success entirely dependent on character skill.

I'm much more capable of accepting/understanding misses in say KOTOR because that's mostly auto aim there's a separation of Player and Character I'm not asked to aim and get in to position so it's "fair" that I don't get the benefits of doing that

Morrowinds system feels like it was designed by the type of person to try to teach a fish to climb trees.

On the outset for both it seems the same "bad skill points bad results" but the change in delivery "Your arm/technique is too weak to do any real damge" vs "even though YOU lined up everything the character skill is too weak so it phases through" matters a lot to some people me included

I also like how we went from shitposting at each other to having a nice cordial conversation about the games and their mechanics this what makes /v/ worthwhile

>>16165591

>>16165545

I like how Kenshi handled visually resolving a stat-based, computer-handled combat. Combat is entirely stat based (although a crafty player could move out of a fight in the middle of an emey's attack to juke it out), and hits are determined by the attack formula of the aggressor coming higher than the defense formula of the defender. If the hit is successful, the enemy is hit as normal. But if the defense roll is higher, then the defender either plays a blocking animation to defend against the enemy or dodges out of the way. Everything is handled in calculations but matches up visually in the fight. You don't suffer from either some hardcore "MLG" player with a level 1 character who has the strength, stamina, and agility of an anorexic crippled geriatric unrealistically killing a veteran soldier kitted out in the best armor his faction has, but you also don't have every weapon in the world being magically enchanted with a dephasing spell that only goes off when the user is weaker than the opponent and harmlessly passes through his foe.

>>16165591

I never really understood this view regarding Morrowind, because it isn't difficult (for the player) to land a hit. You just have to walk up and swing, most enemies aren't dodging around or anything. Not that I'm defending Morrowind's combat. As >>16165626 pointed out it lacks tactile feedback or "crunch." It also falls into the same "Spam best attack, heal when needed" trap as many JRPGs.

>>16166394

The sad thing is the character creator looks better

>>16166375

it's not about difficulty per say it's about how much of the process you do vs how much is automated if aim is "manual" for lack of a better description a hit should be guaranteed, like I said the damage doesn't matter and can/should be based on skill (also both games have varied attack types for melee weapons) but if on the other hand it's an auto targeting system then it's only fair that you can miss

in spite of lock on because of not having in perception or whatever.

Also I feel I should point out >>16165626

Kenshi is isometric while TES is first/third person so there's different expectations for the mechanics from the start

>>16167481

>The sad thing is the character creator looks better

You can make beautiful things with TES IV Oblivion character creator. It takes time, but with all the sliders… it is possible.

>>16165530

I'm pretty sure spells have a 100% chance of hitting if you cast it.

>>16183444

They do auto-hit, so long as the actual, manually aimed projectile hits. There is a chance that your casting fails however, based on your skill level as well as attributes and current fatigue.
