Raiden Enters Oblivion

One of the latest mods featured on the Oblivion Files features a tribute to Metal Gear Solid IV. AlexScorpion’s Adamantium Battlesuit is the featured armor pictured above. Yes it’s inspired by Raiden’s armor in MGS4, as it confirms in the description. By the way for the Bethesda Blog Devs that spotted it; this is a cool mod but your conclusion on the inspiration for the piece was a bit off. Wolverine’s adamantium skeletal makeup and claws are internal, not body armor. You were closer with your first guess of MGS2.
Other featured mods are the “featured home” mod from newcomer Arron_Dominion who contributed the Solsthiem Abandoned Shack and the “featured spell” from Trollf is Unnatural Aura. This spell mod contains two new spells, Unnatural Aura and Unnatural Perception. They aren’t strictly useful, but they are sweet:
“There’s the ‘Unnatural Aura’ Spell, which lets you put several different effects(Shaders) on your character, from the fog that comes off a Zombie, to the electricity from a shock spell, to the eerie glow of a ghost. The second spell, ‘Unnatural Perception’ allows to to put these same effects on Non Player Characters and creatures.”

what’s the point of such an armor in such a game ??
@maxime: What’s the point of any mod for any game? It’s a way to personalize our experience in the game. I see this armor as a huge jar of awesomeness with a hint of garlic. This really is an awesome mod and if I was playing Oblivion on the PC, I’d definitely download it
Shucks, I was hoping it was Raiden from Mortal Kombat.
@Dan: Wasn’t his name spelled “Rayden”? I could be wrong
I fucking love Raiden
Dude I love MGS, Oblivion, and Raiden! Except in MGS2 when you get naked and you do cartwheels…
I do naked cartwheels all the time, I don’t drive to work.
