Three mods make Oblivion the peak of its era:

  • Leveled list fix. Any one will do. The base game fumbled it, and everyone knows that, so plenty of people have rebalanced it their own ways.

  • Darnified UI. As with SkyUI: it scrunches things down to where they make sense on a 1080p monitor instead of a 480p television in the next room, and it adds a few sort-by options for loot goblins. There's nothing to be done about the nested tabs because they're fine. Morrowind has its mouse-driven WIMP setup, Oblivion has its 360 blades dashboard, it's fine. They are endgame versions of what shaped their era.

  • Quest message popup removal. You absolutely do not need a modal fucking dialog, ev-er-y single time your journal updates. The little ching! is enough.
