    Repairing: Boring, Tedious, or Immersive?

    We’ve all had those moments. You’re out exploring the land, when suddenly a Cliff Racer or Wolf jumps out and ambushes you! You draw your trusty blade, but wait! You forgot to repair it, so after a single hit, it brakes. But never fret! You&rs...

    Starting a Bard's Tale Bard in Oblivion - seeking advice

    I recently have began playing The Bard's Tale, and I like it.
    I have even thought about a Bard in Skyrim - but that's too obvious (Solitude has the Bard's College, after all.)
     
    But I also have TES: OblIVion on my PS3 -and I thought, "Perfect!&nbs...

    Oblivion Revisited!

    So, after maybe 5 years or so, I’ve started playing Oblivion again. I think it was the favorite quest discussion in the 25th anniversary topic that rekindled my interest, not sure. But! I’m playing again, and it really is nuts how much better the storylin...

    Best Mods And Mod Organizer For A Morrowind Noob?

    I've played Skyrim for nearly 1000 hours on PC alone and probably over 50k on my PS3 before that but now I want to play Morrowind and I'm wondering what mods I should use and how I should install them.

    Oblivion Character Build: The Dark Mage

    Disclaimer: If you are not interested in ridicoulously OP builds, stop reading now.
    Disclaimer 2: This is literally just a build there is little to no RP aspect.
    Oblivion is, without a doubt, the best Elder Scrolls game, at least in my opinion. I still ...

    Event Build: The Huntsman

    The Hunter is kind of a weird build that obviously came from my subconscious desire to combine Medium Armour and Spears even if it isn’t the most logical character in the end. The Hunter is basically half Legionnaire and half Hunter, a weird mix of ...

    Going back the older games

    So, I popped in Oblivion for the first time in two-ish years and WOW. I forgot how early PS3/360 the graphics and whatnot were. Granted, I never really played with TOO many mods when I played Oblivion, but dang, potato heads abound

    Morrowind: Is Unarmoured a Viable Skill?

    Unarmoured's always been a tricky Skill for me in Morrowind. It's got a few benefits, but it's also got some pretty hefty disadvantages (Such as the lower AR). I've only used it once or twice in the past, and found it noticably more difficult without the ...

    Why You Should Play the Classics

    Greetings all,
    Now, you may have noticed that we aren't the most active of groups, and that's partially on us, but that's also partially due to the lack of people on this site that play the older games in the Elder Scrolls series. So, in a pretty overt gr...
