One of my all time favorite games. For the Steam Deck, just select the "airloaf's Oblivion Bindings" for your layout from Community Layouts and you are good to go. Runs great on the Steam Deck.

its a nightmare to make this game stable. but its SUPER modable so you can alter it in any way you want like a sandbox. i recommend your learn the modding tools they are easy and you can make a lot of fun stuff for roleplay etc. and despite the goofiness it can be an engaging story, deep lore and great questlines. if you're unconfortable with the modding and fixing and all that nonsese, and you own skyrim special edition i suggest you buy it just so you can get skyblivion this year (LATE 2025). its a remake of oblivion made by modders in the skyrim se engine (with unique updated assets/worldmap/EVERYTHING) and the full game will be required to isntall it

If you're new to this title: Oblivion isn't a game that you play. Oblivion is a game that you conquer. Yes, the graphics and mechanics haven't aged well. Yes, the dialogue is often hilariously unhinged. And yes, the game is ripe with bugs and quest breaking sequences that induce a paranoid amount of saving. But its' defects can also be broken in your favor. THAT realization is when the game grips you: What can you get away with? What cheese tactics, what exploits, or what innocuous and obscure thing (like picking up and dropping a paintbrush from your inventory... this is not a joke) can you leverage to your adventure— and how far can you leverage it? And there's so much to be adventured: every nook and cranny or every dungeon, achieve and ace every quest, grind every attribute and skill to max, collect every unique item, and then, after a 100+ hours... lament that it's over. Which brings us to those who are returning to this title: You know as well as I that this game has near to no replay value. Everything Oblivion has to offer can be experienced in a single playthrough, and the narrative has little to no variation (nor any substantial dialogue or narrative choices for those hopping for more RP in their RPG like the CRPGs that predated it). It can be a hell of a ride, but with a story you can only fully revel in once, as a fresh player. Otherwise you're only left to recall the insatiable desire to see and do everything until the memory of your previous experience is restored, which quickly dulls the experience. However, on a personal note, I will add: that one thing I recalled was that this was one of the few games that truly made me feel as though I were fighting an endless army of demons; running, jumping, and cutting through one Oblivion gate after another... And I felt it still, even years after its' initial release. May it make you feel such heartiness as well.

I don't care what anyone says. The npcs felt alive then and they do now. Folks just got unrealistic standards of dialogue and visuals. All I'm saying is, I think there are plenty of people on the internet that are less functional humans than the npcs from Oblivion, I'll tell ya what.

The Elder Scrolls IV follows the journey of Lucien Lachance and his new recruit as they try to bring the sworn enemy of the Morag Tongue, the Dark Brotherhood, back to its former glory. They do whatever is necessary, including assassinating, waging open war, attending parties, deceiving, and much more. Only to find out in the end that the harder you strive to slay your enemies, the faster you'll deliver your people right into their hands." In addition, you have to assist a guy named Martin in finding an amulet.
