Bestest Oblivion mods?
« on: October 30, 2009, 03:42:16 PM »
Just bought this GotY edition with the expansions, since I've never played it (but heard good things about it).

Anyone got any good mod recommendations?  Seen lots over at http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/ but don't have much idea if they're up to the PPG standard or not.

Cheers.

I find this useful and broadly in line with my likes/dislikes:

Except it doesn't have much in the way of quests, so I supplement it with this:

Unlike BG2 where the game can be enjoyed without mods, I'm afraid this wasn't the same for Oblivion. At the very least you need a mod which deals with the terrible level scaled enemies and loot - Oscuros Oblivion Overhaul and Francescos mod (both on the first list above) are the two best IMHO. Personally I prefer Fran's. There is a mod which combines them both (plus lots of other mods) called FCOM but installation requires a PhD and getting it wrong can screw your game, so I wouldn't bother, particularly for your first playthrough.
