The AI In Oblivion could use a lot of Work, More Specifically with Guards and Important Citizens. Like, If you kill someone without a guard noticing he'll check the body and say "Looks like threre's a Killer on the loose" and just walk away. Or if a dead body is near you (not necessarily one you killed) Guards will still check it but they won't ask you questions, or anyone else for that matter. Guards should Question someone (Especially me, because i look suspicious) for being around a dead body. Now, onto "Important Citizens" By that i mean Essential Characters. True, They are Essential to the game, but don't you think they could simply be overpowered? I mean Martin is the bloody emperor and he does hardly any damage at any point in the game, yet he never dies. Its very Unrealistic but would affect gameplay seriously. Finally, Counts and Countesses (Who are also Essential for the most part) Should NOT be essential, no matter what quest they are involved in, Neither should Guard Captains. Counts and Countesses serve no real purpose in the game besides supposedly "running a kingdom" yet i've never seen many pheasants inside they're castles. Realistically, pheasants should come in on a daily basis and request resources such as More food or More gold, typical pheasant requests (As far as i know) I mean really, they get paid what? 1 Gold for the work they do? I'm of no Royalty, or Rich blood and i have almost 9 million gold. I'm glad someone posted this Topic because Oblivion is seriously Unrealistic (It's a great game of course, but several AI Problems and whatnot)
