How NOT to Play Oblivion!

Micky's impression of Morrowind and Oblivion NPCs is spot on.

[@Blama_]

so true

[@nathanbrute9075]

I feel like Micky's got the perfect "throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks" energy to discover some kinda monumental game breaking glitch. Sometimes I look at inputs done in speed running and wonder how the fuck they thought of that, they're actually channelling Mickgorath's energy.

[@Onychoprion27]

The fun thing about max difficulty in Oblivion is that, thanks to level scaling, you know it'll never get any better. It's Sisyphus the whole way.

[@silentgladiam2096]

One must like BDSM to play oblivion at max difficulty

[@user-pq8pp4pq9o]

@@silentgladiam2096 Just Git gud.

[@okamiyami]

Actually it does get easier once you reach certain levels, some quest items and rare drops like the mundane ring make the game trivial once you start stacking reflect damage and resist magic. Plus most of your damage starts to show when you actually reach level 100 in certain skills

[@M-Z-E-U-J-HB]

You have to use conjuration for an easy start on the hardest difficulty, the skeleton dies easy, but it is scaled like an enemy not like you, so they have 6x more damage. You can always run away while regenerating magicka to spawn a distraction skeleton

Little trick: I noticed you weren't blocking when using your healing spells in the poison room. Blocking while casting spells cancels the spell animation allowing you to cast spells much faster.

Yo, love the Dragon Age reference. They're not as "open" as The Elder Scrolls (except with dialogue and characters) but Dragon Age: Origins is still by far one of the best games ever. If you haven't, and I'll check after writing this, please play it on the channel. Add whatever mods you want. I'd just love to see some DA:O shenanigans.

[@titanjakob1056]

Honestly if they remade it with inquisitions gameplay I would definitely re buy it lol

A game being more open does not make it better.

[@GaybrohamStinkton]

The hard part is that enemies get exponentially stronger, whilst almost nothing you do does anything. When combined with weapons stats being static making questing useless. I'm pretty sure you can do literally 0 damage to enemies. I think one of the DLC might tier up some of the weapons? Wasn't on PS3 though

[@catladydimitrescu]

The only viable method of combat in 100% difficulty Oblivion is Conjuration bc your summons are not affected by the difficulty.

[@ABIGD0G]

its the other way around, they are affected by the difficulty so they do a lot more damage

[@donilock1930]

@@ABIGD0G Well, but enemies are also a lot tankier, so it all negates each other and they do normal damage as a result

[@HeisBeppo]

Conjuration could be a good skill to invest in if you ever subject yourself to this pain again, since your summons don't deal pitiful baby damage like you. Also side note; It is so odd playing with a more compact, modded ui, then watching a video of the vanilla menus, the text looks so much bigger!

[@gandalf8216]

When number of mods >1000, that's when the true RNG begins. One can only do so much with a RNG, but when a system comes together in a stochastic manner, it's one of the few examples of when digital RN becomes close to a true RN.
