You're welcome :) Nope, haven't tried MOO by itself. And yes it adds new factions, leveled stuff, and the amazing delicious hand placed loot. Also, I don't know about being lvl like 40 in OOO cause I'm still fairly new, but I do believe it does make you a god yes. OOO has some cool questlines (slave trade, skyrim bandits, amazons, among others) and MOO adds notice boards to cities, where you can see what's going on, invasions, houses to sell and such. I can't give you a very detailed inside because as I said previously, I'm still fairly new to it (lvl 5 mage-rogue with a raging cleptomaniac compulsion jesus christ I can't get any progress done because I *need* to go around stealing people's hard earned goodies. BUT HEY, I AM trying to save the world, while they just goof around being morons, so excuse me for believing that I am entitled to some precious loot!) I started using oblivion XP because of your comment and I LOVE IT. It gives me the nostalgia diablo feel that I adore so much! Thank you! Can't say about francesco's though, never tried. But I am quite happy with OOO + MOO + Oblivion XP + Balanced Magic. I'm not a 100% on Balanced Magic yet. It's better than vanilla by far, but no "flashyness" as of yet. But I realize I'm still new and still have the noob spells. Btw, do any of you know when is the earliest I can get access to a Spell making and an enchanting altar? Thank you!

Hi! I had the same doubt recently. So what I did was starting with OOO by itself to try it out. In my experience: it didn't make me OP, but it turned me into a little girl lost in the woods during satanic chants. You DO get better loot (if you can open the containers), and I found it pretty balanced to be honest. After a while, I was able to finish some starter dungeons (Vilverin, Sideways cave, Fatback cave, some forts) but my melee-only character was not being rewarding enough. So I read on some forums that OOO makes Mages kick some sweet ass, and decided to try it. After that, I installed MOO and began using both (MOO + OOO) together, and It's been great so far! I also use the Realistic Leveling mod just to change things a little. And also Balanced Magic. MOO doesn't conflict with OOO. OOO makes the game harder, not only leveled to your character, and more, much more diverse. Also many factions and such like better bandits, amazons, more monster groups and others. It's cool because you won't own everything at lvl 1 anymore, and forget the "min is max" rule, you NEED your atribute points. If you use Realistic Leveling, then nevermind, but if you don't, I suggest you use the "always +5" mod, that always gives you +5 points in atributes you've leveled up through your skills. I also suggest using the Scout mod, so you can see the enemie's levels, HP, Mana and Fatigue bars. It's much easier to know if you can possibly handle a situation if you can see these numbers. But I suppose it can be fairly un-immersive aswell. Either way, both mods work great together! At least in my personal opinion. Let us know what you've chosen!!
