This game never get's old.
Somehow I only found out about NorthernUI adding proper controller support earlier this month, despite playing and modding this game since before OBMM and BOSS where a thing. Used to be a Darnified fan but this won me over ๐.
Ooh I will have to check that mod out. I accidentally washed my computer mouse earlier this month so I've been relying on using a trackpad or controller. I only played Oblivion recently, and I tried to stick to the vanilla experience but I didn't like it much. Maybe I will go in with a better build and more mods and enjoy it more this time.
I'd highly recommend the +5 leveling mod, as it's the most near-vanilla way to make the leveling not require you to keep a notebook with which skills you leveled and plan out exactly everything you do to prevent underleveling. You can check the UESP page about leveling if you won't know how it works. But the thing is, going in blind and just playing without thinking and keeping track will likely end up with enemies leveling more than you.
Otherwise I mainly use a shit ton of graphical mods to improve the looks and the unofficial patches. I preffer a near vanilla experience as well, so gameplay mods are minimal in my list.
