I dont know if this is in the works or if anyone else has mentioned this elsewhere, but I think Oblivion really needs a mini-map- WoW, Guild Wars, GTA etc style. The little compass at the bottom of the screen just isnt cutting it. I like to see relational distances as well as direction. It would most likely reside in the top left or right hand corner of the screen. Naturally it would have North, South, East and West coordinates and contain the active quest arrow. It would rotate as you turn your character to face different directions in the world. I'm tired of hitting tab and clicking the map icon everytime i need to calibrate myself (which is quite often given the immersive world around me), and then clicking back and forth between that and my inventory and character screen. The mini map could also be configurable to show nearby points of interests/towns, as well any custom blips.
