New races, new races for oblivion Options

[ectomorpheus]

I have used several of the races mods in morrowind, and hope that perhaps some of these will find there way into oblivion, or even some new ones.

Oh yeah, new races. The hardest thing would be to balance them. Bethesda had a long time to balance their races, yet it still felt a bit unbalanced from time to time. (I tend to just bash down anyone who isn't an Orc, Nord or Redguard in just a few seconds, worse with Adrenaline rush.)
That shows how hard balancing is.

About half races, I've been messing with this sci-fi/fantasy setting of mine for a few years and there is a race running around there who look like a mix between woodelves (size and pointy ears, but they've got very pale skin) and Argonians (horns and those fish-like fins on the top of their head)

I would try to mod them in if I could (which I can't), but really they are unbalanced. If they were in Tamriel, they would outslash a Redguard with a sword and outcast a High Elf with magic.


What I'm trying to say? I hope that everyone who makes a race mod will spend a few minutes thinking about balancing, unless the race is meant to be uber.

Oh, good luck too anyone who wants to give race mods a try.
