People think Oblivion is hard because they don't enchant their gear and don't level up necessary skills. Having Major Skills you actually use is good because then the skill level is appropriately high for the encounters you're facing, generally speaking, among other benefits.
Just go for the default normal. All the difficulty does it make enemies sponges or not. It doesn't really change anything and the scaling in Oblivion is already pretty bad. Difficulty also affects the amount of damage you take.

Oblivion is more difficult than Skyrim generally, and particularly at higher levels. One of the most notable ways in which it's more difficult, and again most notably at higher levels, is that it requires more skill from the player.
Unlike other RPGs, Oblivion is much easier at low character levels, as new levels only increase your Attributes. You get more Health, Magicka, Fatigue and Strength, Agility, etc. Therefore, you can increase your (minor) skills without increasing your level.
Outdoor areas inside Oblivion gates give me zero problems and I find them easy. I find the leveling system to be somewhat of a chore. Of course not even close to being as bad as say Final Fantasy...
