Carry Weight
In Skyrim there is a steed stone that keeps your armor from counting against your carry weight. Is there anything like this in Oblivion or some way to increase my carry weight? I found a nice set of light armor but it takes up all but 10 of my carry weight so now I cannot pick up anything off the NPC's I kill to sell for gold. Guess I am suppose to run around naked so I can pick up stuff to sell? :)

If you are talking about the Brusef Amelion's armor set, that set weighs more than any other light armor in the game. It is not really that great of armor especially with that weight.

There is enchanted equipment you can obtain with Feather that makes everything in your inventory weigh less, while also increasing how much you can carry. There are also Feather spells you can use with high enough Alteration skill.

If you are far enough in the main quest, the best thing you can do is close some Oblivion gates to obtain sigil stones that you can use to enchant any armor with Feather. Just save your game before touching the sigil stone and reload the save until you get a sigil stone with Feather. The strength of the sigil stone enchantment depends on your level. At level 17 you can enchant armor with 125 feather.

When you reach certain levels in armor skill the weight of your armor is reduced. With 100 skill in Heavy armor and 75 in Light armor the pieces you have equipped are weightless.

I have had over 500 hours in 2 weeks before.

If you leave a game minimized while playing another game all games count towards your 2 week total.

No need to reload the save to before the armor just store the armor somewhere.

You don't really need a House. There are 6 Grain Sacks in the Imperial City Market District. The Grain Sacks with the open tops only. There are 3 on each side near the shops.

Those 6 grain sacks are non respawning containers and are 100% safe for permanent storage. They provide plenty of storage for a long time so you don't really need a house right away.

You can find more of these grain sacks in some of the Guilds as well so you can store items in several cities without ever having to own a home.

My first priority is to save enough money for the Gauntlets of Gluttony that you can buy from the merchant in Bruma. They add 15 strength but lower your HP a little. 15 strength is very useful for increasing your damage and your carry limit. They are extremely durable too.

Well I did the reload but no biggie. Wow so I can store in those sacks then? esh... :) These are the ones in the square outside the shops? Okay good to know. Now I can go steal tons of merchandise all night and put it in there to take to my fence in the morning. ;) I even joined the Dark Brotherhood thinking I would get a bed and chest but no, I have nothing in there. Thanks for all of your help!!

Yeah the open topped Grain Sacks are in the Market District next to all the crates and barrels inbetween the shops on both sides. They usually have corn, wheat grain, or flour inside.

Good to know. I figured since they had items in them, it wasn't safe. Thanks again!
