been finishing up the dark brotherhood quests. Everytime I replay this game or fallout 3 I find something new. I`m probably going to go the whole way and try to visit every cave and pickpocket every character. >>725276276
What`d you choose as your default skills?
>>725278398
I chose dunmer this time around, choose whatever you've least played as I guess.

>>725278605
in oblivion i always play argonian idk why maybe a high elf for a change?

>>725278745
Depends on the direction that you're going. Match combat and magic skills to the overall ability of your character. Argonian is fairly balanced but somewhat of a noob race since they have disease resistance and underwater breathing. High elf could be fun since it's predominantly magic based, though I think they have a weakness to magic which is shit when you're actually in oblivion.

Bosmer master race stealth archer whose also a thief, but only steals from arseholes.

>>725279294
yeah i always played as argonian for specifically the disease resistance and the water breathing because i hated vampirism when i was 7

>>725279418

fucking hell, I'm literally doing this now.
>>725279507
Vampirism is a pain the ass at earlier levels. My first time playing through the game I caught it at level 2 and I dropped the game for a while. You can avoid it by being careful or by generally being stealthy. Keep some cure disease potions on you in case,

>>725276086
What're your thoughts on the skyrim updated graphics oblivion mod?

>>725277572
considering this game doesn't really end, any progress is good.

>>725281945
I love all the guilds in oblivion, especially the mages guild. Gathering the recomendations and such, it feels so real, like its more than ''ohh you can cast this spell than everyone can, welcome'' which is in skkyrim.

Where I'm from we don't trust people that don't give it a yearly playthrough

I know the thieves guild has a lot of foreshadow in the dialogue, and the writers may be a bit cliche but overall the questlines are great.

It was quirky and sometimes silly things would happen, like I've seen half a town go mental just because an NPC stole some bread and got slaughtered by guards for it, but personally I loved that stuff. It made the game more unpredictable, felt more alive.

Nothing ever happens in skyrim outside of scripted radiant events.

>>725282761
I don't care for graphics. That's just icing on cake.

And in regards to Skyrim, that icing is covering a cake made of garbage.

>>725276086
>implying I have one
>implying based Morrowind isn't the far superior installment in the series

>>725283060
yeah I enjoy the randomness and glitches of oblivion. Skyrim had a lot of content but was generally uninteresting, even the glitches were boring and unhelpful.

>>725283065

>>725283154

>>725283345
I thought they did a fantastic job of creating Skyrim's geography (the western part - I think the Reach - was my favorite region) but the characters and quests just weren't memorable at all.

>>725283426
That's mainly it, other than dark brother hood quests there really wasn't much interesting quests to the game. They had a sparse map and had a lot of stuff to explore, but in general the game was pretty boring.

>>725278605
>Imperials hail from the province of oblivion

Nigga just went full retarded. I'm not sure how you could even mess this up by accident...

I played Oblivion last year, to completion, but I don't think I'll play it again. I was playing Morrowind late 2015/early 2016, but I uninstalled and reinstalled, trying to fix some mods. However, the uninstall fucked up, so I can't properly install it anymore. I can't be asked to fix that and reinstall it, even though I think Morrowind is the best Elder Scrolls game.

>>725283665
how the fuck did you not realize that entire list was a joke. Every fucking character is suited to be a stealth archer.

I actually booted up oblivion again today because I didn't know about Uriel Septim's alternate dialog rignt before he dies, and I wanted to see if I could get him to do it.

I'm not sure what I'm going to do for this play through. My friends and I used to do this play through type called invisible play through, where we'd put invisibility enchantments on all our armor and jewellery and go through the whole game undetected. It generates some good laughs.

Maybe this play through will be a pacifism play through. Or maybe I'll do a genocide play through and kill everyone who is killable.

>>725290199
Wasn't aware that was a thing. Something new learned today.

>>725290381
I've done that for fun most of the time, but I"m not sure the extended dialogue is really a thing. But the game is so convoluted and glitchy that it might be true. I'll check around.

>>725292828

>>725292954
Yes, absolutely. You should add some mods for your first playthrough. They will only really fix the game, not add new stuff to it or drastically change it.
I will post the guide if I can find it.

>>725292954
Morrowind is crash prone at times and it is based on a dice roll chance system for any action, I like that, I love the lore and large world. Modded it is even larger and graphically more impressive.

Try it, or watch a let's play on it. SorcererDave has a series on his channel dedicated to Morrowind.

>>725293668
The lack of a mini map/radar alone means it is the best in the series by far. After Morrowind then it became more and more about ZOMG GRAPHICS and less about an actual RPG.

>>725292954
If you like exploring and finding a lot of cool shit and not having a quest hold your hand and point you to everything interesting, then yes. If you want to RP an efficient courier who goes from A to B try Skyrim or Oblivion, to a lesser extent. OR any of the modern fallouts for that matter.

>>725293997
Agreed completely!

That being said, I wish it could be remade exactly the same but on a 64bit engine with expansion mods built in and superior 4k graphics.

>>725276086
Why would I play shit yearly, anon?

>>725292923
>But then again I don't really bother with mods.

So you've never played any fallout or elder scrolls game then? You should, they are neat.

>>725292583

I'll give it a try in the future. I guess the modders add an unusual element to bethesdas original dddesign.

>>725293997
I may get scolded for saying this, but "breath of the wild" feels similar to Morrowind in many ways, and I rank it on the same level as Morrowind.

Agreed, with indiana jones, OP but varied spells (such as locking fucking doors) an all. It's pretty perfect as is, and mods make it so. Just look at the wildlife in Morrowind vs. skyrim. Check out the wiki and do a side by side. Morrowind is diverse and inventive. Skyrim has a handful of well known ones that pretty much show up everywhere. And fuck that perk system. Want to be a better archer? Better level up your ability to swing an axe for perk points. 'cause that makes sense.

Get a part time job and save up about 500.00, then build a PC.

Super easy.

>>725294671
Oh. Shit. Well on the bright side PCs that can handle them are cheap af now.

I have got to try it. They need a PC version.

It saddens me that games don't do it anymore. But people want something quick that rewards them every 5s. Immersion can suck a dick, apparently.

Just fine, up until the Oblivion gates. That's about when I stop playing.

>>725294820
All I really need is a graphics card and some memory. Anyway easier said than done, the main thing I want is porn mods.

>>725295027
Kek.

>>725294787
Yes! You and I are on a similar wavelength.

The perk system especially is garbage, and the fact that your actions don't have any significant consequence in the world at large.

am i the only one who pref oblivion over skyrim? I never finished skyrim shit is boring

>>725294889
Mmggh! RIGHT!!?

Exactly what I said too.

Nintendo would make even more money and gain a larger fanbase too.

I still enjoy playing oblivion more than skyrim, but skyrims dark brother hood quests are still fun to play, plus the idea of repeatable quests worked more for skyrim than oblivion.

help

You need a PSU, a case, a mobo, CPU too, but you can still buy those for cheap.

About 500.00 will build a decent rig.

Any mod you want is there for the taking at that point /b/ro, there are some freaky mods out there too.

Pretty much Anything you can imagine has been made...

Here is the Morrowind Guide: paste(removethis)bin(.)com/7gF2VLaf
There's a lot to it, so I recommend using only the first few sections, like: Install the game, Patch Plugins, Official Bethesda Plugins
You'd be fine with just that, but you could add more if you wanted to. Check out the User Interface section

Won't let me post the fucking link

>>725294889
People are working on an unofficial PC version...

Like porting without permission.

Almost every other title is available for the PC too through emulators.
