Well, I'm contemplating taking up Oblivion again after salvaging my modded installation from a crashed disc... Think my last saves are from around 2010 or something if not 08-09. Trying to remember how tings works, a lot have changed, my install was based on OBMM which I guess is superseeded by NMM, my gaming-experience is buildt around OOO (only reason I played Oblivion past the first few levels), and OLD Wrye-tools. From back when Wrye did them himself. Rebuilding the install will take some time I think, right now I am modding Skyrim for a first playtrough but tbh so far nothing beats OOO-Oblivion. I believe Bethesta actually hired Sotobrastos/Oscuro? At least that was what I heard back then. I am writing now not bothering to google, but I think the OOO-thread and OOO-spoilers thread was on this forum too? Gotta find those again. I am sad to see Dev-Akm being gone and his website too, last time I chatted with him I asked for a quest in OOO and that's around the time they decided to not just finish Sotobrastos work but actually add more stuff. Around the time of 1.34 I believe. The work those guys put in for free was amazing. If not for them I would not have stuck with Oblivion. Stupid gamesas is messing so with searching for stuff... As far as the QOTD goes, it's kinda a trick question because of mods: As my char is a primarily melee char with some sick sneak gear (chamelon) I prefer the fighters guild BECAUSE with OOO AND Companion Share and Recruit. I can use them like a real guild-master, IIRC they all had ebony-gear when I quit playing, with good weapons (enchanted, ebony/daedric) I believe I gave Modryn Oreyn a full Daedric set :smile: CSR worked well for me, I stuck with a stable version and the only crashes I had was with auto-loot after fights where followers would trigger actions at the same time. So I sat it to manual. Don't know if that was ever fixed. I don't use them much, usually it's easier to just solo, but I did plan to pull them out for the conclusion of the main story-line. Role-playing like a pro and hurling the might of the fighters-guild in the face of the hounds of Oblivion. Never finished the main-story, the OOO-quests were too good (most of them at least). In short: I hated vanilla Oblivion, when the initial ooo and aaa was over and I realized the world level'ed with me I started googling, found OOO and Francesco's, read up on them. Decided which one I liked, went for OOO with it's place-centric approach. And never looked back. I looked at FCOM but decided OOO was enough. I miss Oblivion, but life, work, crashed disks and lazy-ness got the better of me. I WILL continue that playtrough... EDIT: BTW that post count of mine is wrong. Idk why it says 5 posts. Posts in OOO spoilers alone - should be in the 20's at least. Maybe they are too old?
