Imho old wizardry games were the best RPGs. Oblivion is an action RPG for me, it is not a real hardcore RPG. Personally I really missed the good old RPG games, I havent seen a decent RPG in the last 2 years.

Really? I personally don't think this comes close to being an action RPG. Maybe if you constantly went from dungeon to dungeon. The amount of time I am actually swining a sword is minimal compared to the total time in game.
I enjoyed Pools of Radience..I don't remember exactly when that came out. A lot of people liked Gothic II, though I never played it. It definatley feels like the old school party based RPG games have taken a back seat to hack and slash game play. The decision of bioware to go the route they did with Neverwinter nights really bummed me out. Fortunatley I played the whole thing via LAN with a buddy so it eased the pain. The reason I enjoyed PoR so much, was the absolute scarcity of that style of RPG. And buggy rushed games normally make me upset, but it didn't bother me at all while I was playing POR.
What level are you guys right now for those who have the game? And what mods do you currently have installed?
I just downloaded a new dungeon that is supposed to be pretty sweet, called the Forgotten tomb.

Other notables:
1. 2 new weapon and Armor mods. One mods the Imperial Armor to be on par with Daedric. The other adds a new armor type and weapon type. Basically the blade equipment that has the same stats as ebony.
2. Alchemy mod that chages the name of the Potions to the first effect. Ie: Restore Health + Restore Fatigue would be called Restore effect. The end effect is that all your potions are grouped together instead of being scattered all over.
3. BTMod - Basically changes every interface screen. I think I described it in an earlier post. Makes life much easier.
4. Increased Animal drops - Spend a whole bunch of time tracking down a deer and find 1 piece of meat sucks. This alters all animal loot.
5. Wizard Hovel haven't checked this out yet.
6. Worthless Crap Mod - Adds a nominal value to all items that were previously 0 gold.
Looking for more if you guys have any suggestions.
