Oh boy, where do I begin? I had a mouth full of chips, not rocks, but here goes nothing. You ever think about the stuff modders dream up? Take this newer (as in remastered) version of Oblivion, now featuring… edible rocks. Yeah, you can be the Hero of Kvatch, save the empire, do the brave thing, and then, munch on some gemstones for dessert. Why? Good question.
Okay, so, yelling at your phone or computer in public places… been there, done that — especially when reminiscing about Morrowind. That game was like diving down a rabbit hole of quirky mechanics Bethesda tossed at us. Like spears — who doesn’t love a good spear? Or those vague navigational hints that feel like asking a local for directions and getting a shrug in response.
Anyway, let’s chat about this ‘Edible Gems’ thing. Sounds like a mod brought to us by someone who found a tin labeled “do strange things” and went wild. You play this game wandering Cyrodiil, collecting rocks, but not in a boring way. More like, “Let’s ride bikes and pretend these pebbles are snacks” kinda vibe.
Here’s the kicker — these rocks aren’t just any old earth bits. They double as alchemy ingredients. Imagine chomping on a gold nugget and getting a taste that’s part silky, part shocking, with a sprinkle of temporary wisdom. I mean, call Sheogorath, get Jamie Oliver on the line, cause that’s gourmet stuff.
Picture this: starter of pearls, then madness ore with sapphire sprinkles, and finish with — here’s the twist — a bear pelt for dessert. Nutritional, right? And the mod’s not about to ruin lore — these tasty treats keep true to Morrowind’s alchemy scene.
Now, a little aside — flawless gem values are here to stay. You’re getting top-notch minerals, baby. Sure, you could sell them, but where’s the fun in that? It’s like being in a real-life RPG where choices are, well, a bit nonsensical but still, consequences and such, you know?
Oh, before I forget, brush the dirt off your spoon before digging in. And, if you’re curious, we’ve had some neat chats with Oblivion Remastered modders. They’re stretching the boundaries, breaking walls, doing all kinds of cool stuff. Go check it out, while I finish my chips.
