Zapata935 Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 I have tried to argue this point over and over again on this site! I have just upgraded my PC and installed Oscuros Oblivion overhaul. I happily read through the read me, I will have to run away from my enemies more often. This is my exact point, why would anyone with the starting stats of a sedated librarian take on a James Bond challenge! I can't seem to get it thro to anyone else! It just does not fit!

Hickory Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Not every enemy is 007 sized. The overhaul does one thing very well: it makes the player 'think' before going into battle. That's part of the whole point of OOO. If you have argued your point 'over and over again', and think it 'does not fit', why did you install it again when you upgraded? It's a serious question... I'm curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm too old to play this game, my back creaks and my spine wracks when trying to kill someone! I would rather take them to the local inn and buy them a pint, given that I have the killing capacity of a flea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to be a mind thinking magician who wants to avoid conflict, so be it, if you want to be a pacifist and avoid everything so be it. But to start out as a useless no-hoper who dies everywhere he goes, I just don't get that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I *think* I see what you are saying, but my question still remains: if that's what you think of OOO, why install it? Of course, Oblivion (OOO or not) lets you play as you see fit -- you can sit inside inns for the whole game if you wish, but you're likely to run out of cash in the first couple of days, if not before. Not to mention that the patrons are not much on small talk, and the landlords don't to 'tabs'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came out of the sewers crossed to Vilverin, got wiped out there, went to the Roxey and the Cave above, got wiped out in seconds there! Hell whats the point of going in anywhere. I get the feeling this is just a joke from "I beat this game before you did clowns' Apart from that what is the point as you just tgm to get past the even more ridiculous odds anyway! OOO does not add anything but nonsense to the game, it just encourages players to cheat back at a game that cheats on you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, sometimes there is just no answer (read no point) to an argument, and I fear that is true here and now. :facepalm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rennn Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) If you don't like the mod, don't install it. End of story...If other people didn't like it OOO wouldn't be so widely endorsed. I use mods to bump the difficulty like that because I like feeling like a weak mortal for the first several days. Running, climbing, hiding, and traps are legitimate strategies that many people enjoy more than a frontal assault.

Zapata935 Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 I would like to apologise to you both above, for my cynical and unfair criticism of what is actually a great mod! I guess I had become too used to winning all combat in the many times I have seen the dragon rise in the temple of the one. I think that says it all. The vanilla game is too easy, and your right to question why did I install OOO, if it is pissing you off! I do love the extra's that OOO gives and have therefore decided to play it out as it was meant. I'm sorry I came to the forums to bark like a junkyard dog at my frustration. I will climb a mountain and scream from the top, from now on. Thanks for taking the time to calm a junkyard dog! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
