remember morrowind?

scroll lower for the "important part"

morrowind was my first rpg, and it will always be special for that reason. the game was way beyond its time, the problem is technology advances so rapidly that the game was outdated by the time oblivion came around. i got oblivion 2 years late b/c my machine couldnt handle it (same thing with f03 when it came out). well i recently found out that my morrowind disc got fried, despite the absence of scratches. and i really. really. wanted to play it. well i downloaded it through steam only to be semi dissapointed with what i got. its not how i remember it, technically, graphically, and stability wise. technically, it falls way short, when i played it the first time, the scripting was groundbreaking, but now, coming from fonv and skyrim the game falls short. graphically as well, i dont remember the graphics being that bad, but again at the time they werent, and im slowly attempting to remedy that with mods. and as far as stability goes, its the one upside ive found in this endeavor, theres NO lag because my current machine is more than decent, and when the game was released my machine could have out preformed the "gaming" machines at that time. and as i play it, im finding that i never actually went through with the story, i riddled the game with all sorts of mods and played my own way.

 

one of the main things i had to give up when i started oblivion were some of the mods, my favorite being: ravenloft.

 

remember it? imnsho THE best housing mod in morrowind, it didnt have a flashy exterior to compete with the mansions and castles either. does anyone know of a "ravenloft for oblivion"?

As for the 'best' home in Oblivion that is a matter of individual preference

 

My own are - a full useable and working castle that has everything you want or expect in a castle. Plus a few surprises that you won't expect.

Glenvar Castle: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/8235 you will have to work for it though and not just once. There are 2 full quests The first to get and staff the castle, the second to keep it.

 

mansion: Verona House: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/14601

and a bugfix version for if you have Shivering Isles http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/36389

you must be Champion of Cyrodiil to start the extensive quest to get this - not just a mansion, an estate with it's own village larger than any vanilla village in the game. A complete history of the village and a back story that feeds the quest. And some interesting inhabitants in the village - not just the run of the mill NPCs that fill the vanilla game.
