An Oblivion modder has now made it possible for players to order themselves an actual pizza to be delivered to them directly. Generally considered to be one of the best Elder Scrolls games around, this teenage Bethesda RPG may look pretty primitive when compared to the current gaming era, but it's still a fan favorite, featuring some stunning visuals for its time, and some notable voice acting from the likes of Sir Patrick Stewart and Sean Bean. Perhaps what's helped keep the game in good favor all these years is the number of ways to tinker with the format.
Games like Skryim have a wealth of weird and wonderful mods made by the fans. Such examples include turning guards into chicken, giving the player a staff that produces sweet rolls, or the creepy one that converts the giant spiders into an eerie-looking Spider-Man. Oblivion is no different to such weirdness, and while a lot of mods seek to make improvements to the vanilla experience, either visually or by adding custom content that extends the game's lifespan, there are those people in the community who want to inject something a little different.
That's exactly what modder Nikies42 has done with their mod "Pizzablivion". As spotted by PCGamer, this user has managed to create a way to order a Domino's pizza through Oblivion. With a bit of tinkering, players can utilize a new character, who goes by Pizza Black and is situated outside Weye just west of the Imperial City, to have a real pizza delivered to their door. The option will appear to ask for the usual, which in this case will be 12-inch thin crust, 8 garlic bread twists, and a 20 oz bottle of Fuze Lemon Tea, totaling $28.23 including tax and delivery. It is important that players do edit the .py file and type in the correct delivery details beforehand. The modder also encourages anyone who can code to alter the order if they know how.
This is also not the first food-based mod that's come out for an Elder Scrolls game. Earlier this year, someone created a burger joint for Skyrim called Burger Jarl. This establishment is situated near the fishing site Broken Fang Cave, and the menu consists of cheeseburgers, milkshakes, a cola alternative, nuggets, and a Big Jarl, which appears to be a larger version of the cheeseburger.
With Nikies42's mod, it's possible to order real-life food instead, which is something that's quite unique. With Oblivion containing one of the most memorable step-out moments in a Bethesda release, it certainly has an air of immersion. But nothing says "immersive" like being able to place an order for actual food from the game itself.
The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion is currently available on PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
