I have a maxed out character and expert still makes everything a brick wall. The balancing just truly sucks in Oblivion, especially since everything levels with you. The best thing to do is lean into the jank. Minmax completely and expert will become more fun. This game wasn’t mean to be played seriously, it was made to break.
They write a great deal, show how the game feels, express how they’ve enjoyed the games and if they’d recommend them. I consider these posts one of the more valuable we have here in this community. It’s not just a link and a one-liner, they’re writing and sharing their experiences and creativity. Formatted and so well made.
Its insane to me that you’d think this is shit. What would you prefer be posted here?
The screenshots frustrated me too, because I’ve seen that done before where it’s a daily screenshot and nothing else, feels low-effort and annoying and somehow spammy even if it’s still on topic. Although my approach was to just scroll on, especially since it was just another spam post and not outrage-inducing. If it got truly bothersome I could always click the user and block.
Then I actually clicked one and saw the thoughts. They belong here. Wish there was a simple way for the poster to communicate to people like me, who got tired of seeing low-effort “screenshot a day” stuff and will make assumptions, that their posts are more than those and have actual words and effort with them.
@MyNameIsAtticus needs to change the title to “Daily thoughts: game X, game Y, game Z.” Continually saying “screenshot” each time is misleading and does legitimately sound spammy and annoying. A simple title change would be so much better.
I have actually thought about this! I’ve changed the name a couple times before. Usually I have people asking about it the name change though. I’m considering doing it after I reach a year, I might do it sooner though after seeing someone else now after seeing someone else say the same thing.
Though you can try role play difficulty limitations yourself. Also, that was number one complaint in the remaster survey so its very likely to receive a patch soon.
I haven't played the remaster so I can't guarantee this will work, depending on what has changed, but ironically levelling up more might be the solution you need here. If the level scaling is still as completely fucked as it was in the original, the enemies should get stronger pretty quick. If you only level non-combat stuff they should get to a point that you find appropriate
If we’re adding gaming communities to the sidebar, my list here of gaming genre-specific communities could be helpful.
Can testify to activity of !automationgames and !otomegames as their mod, to !incremental_games as someone with an account there (even if you do not see it from this side, federation issues…), and to !visualnovels, !shmups, !cozygames, and !lifesimulation someone subbed to them. The others might also have activity, including ones I listed as inactive at the time of that post. I sometimes post to the others on the list I am not subbed to if I come across a game in their genre, but I don’t remember off the top of my head.
For some reason, I can’t even appreciate playing in a dept (I play on apprentice). The enemies still take like 20 arrows, and that’s using Daedric gear with an archery level of 60-ish.
I once tried to fight a wisp on adept with my maxed magic skills and it still almost killed me in like 5 seconds.
You could try expert mode but I found it annoying to play without mods. Enemies are really tanky, I think you deal 0.2x damage overall compared to adept or something. Fights weren’t that much more difficult, just longer. You will spam projectiles and run in circles.
Oblivion isn’t that hard of a game imo, I think you should just continue on your playthrough. If you start a new game you’ll still be very powerful around level 20.
0.286x damage done, 3.5x damage taken. Doesn’t scale well at all. It would be nice if it were more granular and they had separate sliders for damage done and damage taken.
If you’re interested in checking out some of the lesser-known gems on PS2, consider giving Dark Cloud and Dark Cloud 2 a try. They’re both completely standalone, so you could skip the first and try the more beloved sequel. The hook for both is that as you explore dungeons, you get blueprints and resources to rebuild the outside world. Honestly? I don’t know if they aged well, but I had a blast when I discovered them about 20 years ago.
Took me a minute… I have to jump through many self made hoops to get new websites through my firewall’s DNS filter and I don’t enable http. It is however on archive. I’m probably the only nerd here with such masochistic network, but whatever. Thanks for the comment. Tycho was a character, that’s for sure.
