You could try expert mode but I found it annoying to play without mods. Enemies are really tanky, I think you deal 0.2x damage overall compared to adept or something. Fights weren't that much more difficult, just longer. You will spam projectiles and run in circles.
Oblivion isn't that hard of a game imo, I think you should just continue on your playthrough. If you start a new game you'll still be very powerful around level 20.
0.286x damage done, 3.5x damage taken. Doesn’t scale well at all. It would be nice if it were more granular and they had separate sliders for damage done and damage taken.
I haven't played the remaster so I can't guarantee this will work, depending on what has changed, but ironically levelling up more might be the solution you need here. If the level scaling is still as completely fucked as it was in the original, the enemies should get stronger pretty quick. If you only level non-combat stuff they should get to a point that you find appropriate
You can't.
Though you can try role play difficulty limitations yourself. Also, that was number one complaint in the remaster survey so its very likely to receive a patch soon.
I have a maxed out character and expert still makes everything a brick wall. The balancing just truly sucks in Oblivion, especially since everything levels with you. The best thing to do is lean into the jank. Minmax completely and expert will become more fun. This game wasn't mean to be played seriously, it was made to break.
For some reason, I can't even appreciate playing in a dept (I play on apprentice). The enemies still take like 20 arrows, and that's using Daedric gear with an archery level of 60-ish.
I once tried to fight a wisp on adept with my maxed magic skills and it still almost killed me in like 5 seconds.
