>enemies scale to your level
Who the fuck thought this godawful mechanic was good? It basically kills any incentive to progress your level. It makes Oblivion even more dogshit than it already is.

i like oblivion despite its giant list of flaws, but the leveling system always bothered me
Anthony Adams
Because most RPG games that don't have enemies scale are shitly balanced so if you play with even the smallest bit of competence the game becomes piss easy after the first five hours (see Witcher 3).
Jack Stewart
>you level up
This mechanic is rarely good, to begin with
Adrian Cook
thats just modern games being shit. But Oblivion is pretty old
Anthony Green
agreed, what is the incentive to become mechanically better if you are guaranteed to be able to press X to win if you play long enough?
Jacob Myers
It wouldn't be that much of a problem if it weren't restricted to bloating numerical values like it's no tomorrow. Imagine if new enemies would also learn new combat manoeuvrers, gain new abilities and maybe start to work together.
But why the fuck would you put so much effort and energy into this if normies eat up whatever you shit out if it's hyped enough anyway?

they're sweet animals but their skin/hair looks gross to me, I try to like all animals equally but if I'm being really honest I think I only small and furry ones are cute like dogs, cats, squirrels so on.

It's good because it makes it so you can't just brainlessly grind the same enemies over and over to become too powerful for your current stage of the game.
Level scaling gives you an incentive to move forward, while non level scaling usually gives you an incentive to stay in place.

the answer to this is actually get good. you can easily kill even high tier enemies on the max difficulty in oblivion if you know what you are doing. this is without any cheap stuff on top of it. you can play the game max difficulty legit and thrive. you guys just suck

I love Oblivion but the scaling was ass. I was an autist that would train skills in The Wizard's Tower, and even if I trained 20 levels of restoration and acrobatics, the enemies would scale on that level increase. This just inflated their HP pools, even when my overall damage did not increase. Therefore leading to you spending 20 extra seconds slapping a Troll with your sword with no added difficulty. By end game on ~expert difficulty, I had a spell that would reduce Endurance and drain health 100 just so I could quickly dispatch HP walls.
Michael Lee
The problem with Oblivion's leveling system and level scaling is that the enemies scale to your numerical level, but that increases when you use your primary skills enough times. If you make your most-used skills primary, then you can level up while all your other skills are under-powered and can't handle any of the enemies because they're level 10 but most of your stats and abilities are still lagging way behind. The best way to design a character is to make your LEAST-used skills, like swimming, your primary skills and then just swimming laps to level up a few times when enemies start being too easy. It's a fucking mess and the worst part of an otherwise-decent game.

If find it the opposite. What's the point if I still take the same amount of time to kill an enemy at lvl.50 with maxed everything that it did at lvl. 1 with shit gear. Keeping everything leveled around you kills progression.

I love how people say they love exploring in games but as it turns out this exploring is limited by either
>being too weak for the mobs there
or
>lacking the item to even go there
or
>waiting for a plot event to open that up
so someone tried to avoid all of the above and it ended up looking like that trash.

Fucking plen. Oblivion is great because you become a god. Then you hunt down and reset for transcendent sigils with shield. Then you collect shield, reflect, and spell absorbtion items and you walk around a god giving people your touch of death and taking no damage.
Morrowind and oblivion were fun because they weren't balanced and they punished mele cucks. Who the shit plays a fantasy and doesn't use magic?

because chinks are subhuman. The building's various floors has a halfwall near the edge like that, so they trained the dog by hopping over the lower floors then brought it up to the higher one.

People who want the game to be difficult for the sake of difficulty and those who do not understand the concept of doing so many things that by the end your character becomes a god.
Because some people cant stand the fact that after lvl 20 game holds no challenge for you (except the word to explore, things to do, quests to do, etc etc and become more powerful).
