>imagining an Oblivion without level scaling


OOO is nice, but the world and everything is still designed around leveling scaling. Literally the worst """"""""feature""""""""" ever designed.

It is the best game in the elder scrolls series by far, vanilla oblivion>modded morrowind

You don't like new enemies or challenging gameplay?

>>342476697
Dungeons were pretty good. Magic was still good and had like 12 summon options for conjuration. Weapon and armor durability still a thing. Skills were still a real thing.

As someone who loves Elder Scrolls and Fallout, what games can i get what will give me a similar experience? I hear good things about witcher 3, but you cant customize your character and it probably wont have the comfy crafting and loot that ES does. Also, is Divinity a good buy?

Nothing gives the same kind of experience as modern Fallouts and TES. That's why they sell so well.

Crafting and Alchemy are pretty good in Witcher.

How about those shitty Oblivion gates quests? Those were fucking shit, and so was the game as a whole.

Skyrim had 0 good quests. Oblivion had at least 10.

Why is skyrim so shitty?
>>
>>342483343

This is why you either blaze through the main quest to close the gates as soon as possible or don't start it until you're nearly at the end of the game.
>>
>>342483343
I always felt like the Oblivion gates get too much shit. I mean, they're garbage, but every Bethesda game has a terrible main quest and imo the Oblivion gates were an above average element of ESIV's main questline compared to all of Bethesda's other games. Going to a different plane of existence and seeing unique enemies was pretty sweet even if it quickly got repetitive.

Actually, that is what makes me like Oblivion more than other TES game. The "new enemies per level" doesn't change all the enemies in the game, you will still find a lot of fools that die from one single blow.

In Skyrim oh higher difficult, and even in Morrowind, the game is just challenging on the beginning. After some levels and with a good skill distribution, it loses ALL the difficult. Morrowind on level 20 you can literally enter in any city that is guarded by Imperials and kill everyone in there.

Oblivion is different, is fun even after a lot of character evolution. That is why I expended 500+ hours on it, while i got tired of Skyrim in 50. When you arrive level 50 in Skyrim you become a god on earth, literally nothing kills you even on legendary mode.

There's literally only 3 dungeon designs. If you go through a gate more than a couple of times you'll be playing the same level over and over.

I'm getting the urges to play Oblivion, but I'm afraid that if I install it and get the mods working I'll only play a few hours and uninstall it.
>>
>>342484971
I sort of agree and I'm a big fat Oblivion dickrider, but level scaling *is* indisputably retarded no matter how you slice it.

RPGs are supposed to have a sense of progression. Yes, eventually you should feel like god on earth able to wipe out anything. That's when you reroll a new character. The problem with Skyrim is that a single character can be a master of everything and be god on earth with so little time in the game, which is why it's such shit and boring to play without a boatload of difficulty enhancing mods.

In an ideal rpg, rerolling actually has a point so that when you eventually become a literal god with one build you want to run a new one. That's where the replayability comes from. Not from having a single character and the game just leveling up with you constantly.

>>342485506
Yeah, like I said, they're repetitive as fuck. But when you compare it with other Bethesda main quests, Oblivion gates really aren't all bad. Of course that isn't high praise, Bethesda's main quests are consistently shit.

>>342485690
I do this all of the time because I mod too much and it isn't nostalgic anymore. I'm currently running only a few mods to make characters less ugly and the game more like a proper rpg and it's much easier to stick with it now. Over-modding is definitely a thing imo. After a certain point it just stops feeling like Oblivion and it's not fun anymore.
>>
>>342476697
Sword combat and magic suck a giant dick but overall it is extremely comfy with the environments and such.

True. I remember having beat the entire game, having not even realized weapon forging was a thing. My friend then showed me how weapon forging is the biggest factor in how you can get even more OP faster. Was shocked.

Why am I seeing people use a dozen quote marks on a single word more and more lately?

Is this a new meme?

>>342477078
Oblivion Scaling Unclustered is for you - it's the best mod I've experienced handling the level scaling.
>>
Chocolate elves mod was the reason i started playing this game.
>>
>>342488619
The enemies were unique to Oblivion gates. The gates themselves (map layout, objectives) were repetitive.

Follow?

Oblivion is the best Elder scrolls.

Doesn't that quest involve you going into a dungeon?

>>342488639
well youd have to understand what the quotation marks mean and having alot of them is just to emphasize said meaning.

The Oblivion gates are pretty fun if you just blaze through them. Don't even gotta fight anything, just potions and parkour.
