... I don't know how to tell if my version of Oblivion is already patched or not, ...
You have to look at the lower left part of the main menu, version is shown there.

OMG OMG OMG, Exactly the same thing happened to me!
IMO this, toegether with other incidents like the two bandits fighting each other because no one else is around (ElfAngie), means that the Oblivion AI is commonly underrated by players.

I don't know if this is funny, but I remember one time, trying to steal something to Leyawiin's Countess for a TG quest, a guard discovered me and shout "Alarm!".
I immediately launched my Invisibility spell and was trying to escape, but I turned one second to look back and I saw: the Count, the guard, the Countess and her maid in a brawl trying to kill each other. :whistling:
The countess was hammering his husband, who was fisting the guard who was cutting the maid ! Wow !

Mentioning only one is impossible, I would say at least two:
- The secret of Monkey Island
- Doom

I admit I did not read all the 31 (!) pages back, so many of them could have been said before:
- for sure better, longer, varied main quest.
- Guilds with competition among them. Say, if you become Master of the FightersG, you can not advance more than a certain point in the Thieves'. Resigning (once only) from boss position could be added.
- More Guilds would be nice, for sure.
- real specializations: today an Orc with Warrior birthsign, with all magic skills as minor, specialized in Combat, can become a 100int, 100willpower, Destructive Magic Master, it will just take more time.
- More varied dungeons !!!
- the "named" weapons/armors should be better than the normal ones, and more difficult to obtain. Daedric quests are a walk in the park.
- if they do not want to give up on the levelling feature (I hope), at least do it better: I never saw a complete orcish or dwarven set, because the window for them to show up was too short. Now I swim in a pool full of Daedric and Glass armor pieces.
- Realism options : need to sleep/eat when activated.
- 500x mudcrabs than in Oblivion: my character loves mudcrab sushi !
-
I hated Clannfears when I was low level and travelling in Oblivion realm.
Now that main quest is over and my PC is very strong, Will o' wisp's for sure: almost all hard enemies have a weakness, they don't.
In my opinion, atronachs of all types are quite weak enemies.
As for Xivilai, I find them easy and funny to kill. I just go melee and spit lightning at them and watch them die.

There are so many negatives in this post..
However, most of you idiots posting the negatives are the ones spending your entire life in the Oblivion world meaning you really like it. However, you are upset because some things in the game get your panties in a ruffle..
-Where would the Oblivion crybabies be without Oblivion?
-Those that can come up with so many bugs obviously like the game enough to play it long enough to find the bugs...
-If you cannot tolerate the "flaws" in the game, design your own game and "be happy now".
Cheers!
The post is named: 500 things you have learned in Oblivion. This is why you are seeing what you call "negatives".
You can be sure that no one will post something like "apples are red and lattuces are green" or "wolves live in the forest" or "people who possess a home sleep there", because it is so in the real world, so you've not learned none of them in Oblivion.
And, for sure, people reading and writing in this forums have spent their real world money to buy the game (I hope so, at least. I did.), and as you said, played it long enough to find such bugs/strange thing, so for sure they like it very much.
Bye!

342. You can spend your lifetime without sleeping once
343. None of the blacksmiths actually works. (Even in quite old games they were working and stopped as soon as you talk to them...)
344. All bandits do use light armor and blunt weapons. All marauders do use heavy armor and blade weapons. This means I play as a marauder.
345. There is a plenty of flora, but not a single fruit tree, but a lot of fruit is spread across Cyrodiil: apples, pears, oranges...
346. There are ingredients which come from nowhere: ironwood nut, Gingko leaf...
347. Even if you are Master Alchemist, you are not able to create a potion with immediate effect, only and always with effects over time.
348. Endurance does not play a part in determining how much weight you can carry. Only strength do.
349. Strength does not play a part in determining how good you are to draw a bow.
350. Nirnroot is similar to mar1juana ?!?
351. Bandit / marauders armors are much better than Jauffre one. (in fact, he died during Bruma siege... I was very sorry for that when I came out)
352. The siege machine coming out of the Great Gate is similar to a centipede. What would the Daedra
like to do with that ? And how it happens that no matter how long (short) does it take to you to
close the Great Gate, it will always blow up outside of it ?
353. Vampires do not feed, they behave the same as every other bandit / marauder.
354. Very few people travel among cities (I know there is a mod to fix that).
355. No one prays or put flowers at graves, except during a Daedric quest (Molag Bal, if I well remember)
356. In IC there is a ton of fly amanita along the streets, but still IC's alchemic vendors try to
sell their caps ! Hey, I'm not THAT stupid !
357. Potions and poisons you create, even when they are much better than the ones in store, have much less base value.
358. A silver dagger weights 5 and is 40 gold worth, while an urn weights 2 and is 5 gold worth. I am running home and melt all of my silverware into daggers and swords !
359. Glass is used to make only armors. Not a single drinking glass / bottle / window in all Cyrodiil.
360. It is good to put a candle upon wood furnitures, so I don't understand why my wife gets angry with me when I try to do that.
361. It is normal to leave meat, fruit and vegetables for months in the plates on the table, so even
here I don't understand why my wife gets angry with me when I try to do that.
362. In Cyrodiil they do not cook meat.
363. I cannot wear more than two rings at a time, even if I have ten fingers.
364. Musical instruments do not exist in Cyrodiil, but bards do, even if I have never seen one of
them. What they are supposed to play ? Piano, trumpet, harp, electrical guitar, drums, lids ?
365. Earrings do not exist in Cyrodiil.
366. I cannot put up two different gloves, or boots. I want the pleasure to wear one black and one blue sock !
367. Boars are much rarer than minotaurs.
What are you saying ? Should I stop ? Ok, will do.

Also, try taking a look at Deadly Reflex , it does something similar to what you're asking, giving also the chance, during the fight, to cut-off your opponent's head !
If I well remember, it also adds mounted combat, casting and trampling, the possibility to split your whole opponent in two, or cursh his head, in a similar fashion to decapitation.
I downloaded it, but not yet tried.
Requires OBSE.

First what I like about TESNexus : speed, navigation easiness, look.
But, as always, there is room for improvement:
- The comments lists are a bit bugged, especially on the top, where they seem to interfere with the menu. I use 1024x768 res.
- When downloading >2Mb, the download window does not always appear, and sometimes the file gets opened in the archive management program. This is no good, because if I close the window, the temporary file will disappear from my HD, and I will have to d/l again ! I am using IE6.
- From Mod Comments page, I cannot find any <Back to Mod> button, I think it would be useful.
I want to remark that I find the site very enjoyable !

Funny Oblivion Incidents

Fighters Guild Spoiler
When I performed the quest "The Master's Son" everything went good and I came back Chorrol by Fast Travel. Then I turned around, I gave a look at the beloved son of Vilena Donton, just to assure he was by my side, and he was only in undies, shield and gloves.
After a short moment of shock, I realised that after the hard fight, he finally felt at home and put himself comfortable :biggrin:
Spoiler end
Another one was the first time as a vampire: my first chosen meal was the neck of a Dark Brother. The message said: "What would you like to do with this innocent citizen ? Feed / Speak". INNOCENT CITIZEN ?!? A paid assassin ?!?
