Oops, was so intense on playing, I misspelled "Oblivion"
Graphics are pretty intense, but adjustable for older
cards.  If you played Morrowind, it's by the same people.
Part of The Elder Scrolls.
They also have the expansion pack "Shivering Isles"
Skills build the more you use them.  And about anyone
can also cast some magic.
I'm playing a character that's a thief, birthsign "thief".
You can sneak, steal, etc.  But if you get caught, you
go to jail.
People have gone nuts making mods.  Some good, some.....
well not so good.   Right now, the main site with the mods
is down.  Has been for about 5 days.  This is the news and
information place for the game:
http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Main_Page

For mods (the one that's down right now)
http://www.tessource.net/files/
Really good mods: Thievery in the Imperial City, The Lost Spires,
Zealots of the Nine.  Plus a boat load of smaller ones.
There are mods to make the guards in each city different,
cheat mods, portable homes, clothing, weapons, races, some
to enhance the scenery,....just about anything you can think of.
Oh, there's even a mod "Thief's arsenal" that had to be done
by a Thief player/FM maker.  The salesperson is named Basso,
and he has gas and water arrows.
In the game you can, but don't have to, join the thief's guild,
the fighter's guild, or the mage's guild.  Each have quests for
you to do.  Plus there are quests given to you by NPCs.
If you murder a person, you get a visit by the Dark Brotherhood
and can join the assassin's guild.
Horses to ride, things to fight.  More a regular RPG type game,
but I am having fun thieving.
Right now, I'm a bit soured on the FMs of late.  Seems more a
contest to have new textures, monsters, and Tomb Raider type
stuff than Thief with a good story line and action.  So I've put
Thief on the back burner for awhile.....blah, blah,blah....
Anyway, you might want to take a look at the info link.
