Recommended Quest Mods

[ArchNihil]

Hey there !

 

I'd like to know which Quest Mods you'd recommend. I plan on using Better Cities and Unique Landscapes and I'd want to have as little conflicts as possible with those two.

 

Which are the best ? Might be voiced or not, I do not care. Lore-friendly as much as possible.

 

If you feel like telling me about your non-conflicting favorite House Mods, I'm in too. I looked at a Dwemer Skyship mod which looked great. Anyone tried that one ?

 

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

 

Arch.

The Lost Spires is absolutely great.

 

"Thieves Arsenal" and "Thievery in the imperial city" are two good selections for rogue types.

 

Blackwood Company is great too!

Quest mods:

Integration: The Stranded Light, Blood and Mud, and Malevolent are my personal favorites. Integration requires the Race Rebalancing Project and L.A.M.E. to work. However, both of those mods alone are outstanding.

 

As far as housing mods go, I use Shadowcrest Vineyard and The Biotic. I've never used the Skyship so I really don't know much about it.

Not for too much longer. :)

 

Integration: The Stranded Light. 80+ quests 60-100+ hour playtime, several great storylines, extremely fleshed out characters, unique and interesting quest/gameplay structure with choices and consequences, multiple solutions, skill checks, riddles, think-outside-the-box-situations, and much more.

If you want any further help I suggest you tell us about yourself; what you like and what you're looking for... Here's some questions to get you started:

 

Have you played Oblivion already?

What sort of things interest you?

What type of Character do you usually play? (good/evil, theif/mage, roleplayer/random-no-story-hack-and-slasher?)

Are there specific types of mods you think would interest you? (Quests, graphic mods, gameplay mods, overhauls, etc.)

When did you leave?

What did you not like about Oblivion? What did Oblivion not have or need more of?

Male or female character?

Oblivion quest list

Recent quest mods that look good, but I haven't really been able to try (for the past year my computer access has been stunted a great degree):

 

Dark brotherhood renewed (I was able to try this one, it's pretty decent)

northern front

golden crest

Nehrim

Claudia's little Secret (I have played this one... it's one of the better, and slightly more believable "sex quest mods")

Gweden Brothel (Theabove mod reminded me of this one, basically a business style mod where you recruit actual prostitutes for the vanilla location... I've played this one, it's decent.)

Thanks all for the suggestions !

 

I'll definately go with Integration, RTT, Tears Of The Fiend and Malevolent for the time being.

 

Adding Quest Mods later won't lead to CTDs and nasty stuff like that, right ?

[JCP768]

Most quest mods can be added whenever, shouldn't cause any CTDs or anything.

Lore-compatible (well, pretty close) - you could try Claudia's Little secret if you like "Adult" mods (and it is, explicitly so)
