El_Double: TES 4: Oblivion
[...] Of course, I played the game on Xbox so I couldn't mod it, many people have said that the mods save the game. Don't know about that, but this game can never achieve the fantastic atmosphere that Morrowind has.
xa_chan: Believe me, it does ! The modding community on Oblivion is just amazing ! The thing is that, once you started to mod your Oblivion on PC, it's hard to stop. ;) Plus the fact that you sometimes have to run into annoying bugs and incompatibilities... But it's worth the effort! I actually can't play "vanilla" Oblivion anymore, modding it really underlines how bland and empty the original game was...
Actually, I never had the chance to try Morrowind "in-depth" but that mistake will soon be corrected... once i'll have finished Dragon Age Origins ! ;)
Morrowind is definitely the kind of game that you'll just HAVE TO try "in-depth" to get into it. But once it sucks you in, there's really no way out so only try it if you have enough time! That's what it made for me at least.
I'm gonna buy a new PC soon and then I can run Oblivion as well, guess I'll have to give it another try and install some mods. Recommend you'll do the same with MW, after you've first finished the game at least once. There are some wonderful mods available and more are being made all the time. The various graphical enhancement mods are worth checking out if you're bothered by the old graphics, but I figure it won't be a problem for a GOG user. :)
