The vgchartz ranking game--The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

[sc94597]

8.5(without mods it would be a 7)

Pros

1 There is tons of content. I've spend 100s of hours in this game. With mods it reaches even more.

2 Customization Even though morrowind did it much better, I enjoyed getting things just right.

3 MODS!!! With mods the game is awesome. I have OOO and MMM which basically fixed the problems I had with combat and the amount of enemies. You also have natural environment mods which make the environments less bland and Quest mods where you play quests other people made.

Cons

1 The main story dragged on way too long. It was repetitive as well. So it didn't really push you.

2 Combat was way too bland. The level system was broken. Enemies were either too easy or too hard depending on what settings you had it on. Nothing in between.( I fixed it with the OOO mod)

3 Enemies were way to bland, and you rarely found anything good to kill. Way too many goblins and ogres(be more creative.) They also rarely showed up, and when they did it was a wolf. I fixed this with the MMM mod though. Which btw is the best mod to be released for the game. Only thing to compete with it is probably OOO.

4 Environments used over way to much. I don't want dozens of temples, caves and gates. I want more variety. There was also way too much forest and mountain. Where is the beaches? Valleys? etc?

5 Other small gripes I didn't mention. Maybe something like the merchant system(which I fixed as well.)
