Seriously needed this, I’ve not been excited about playing a game in a while now. 15 minutes in and loving it so far. Oblivion may not be the best game, but it was one of the first open world RPG games I ever played and holds a special place in my heart for that.

    As a Skyrim-first Elder Scrolls who only played and beat Oblivion for the first time this year, I feel happy for you Oblivion fans. This remaster was long overdue.

    I’ll never forget my dad didnt wanna buy it cause it was M rated and the dude at best buy was like “I’ve played it, besides a little blood theres nothing.” Man did I stare at the mermaid statue for a good 30 minutes just admiring that Best Buy employee’s thankless finesse.

      For what it’s worth, the devs who worked on this remake talked about their personal experiences with the original game in the 20 min reveal on youtube. Probably good to mention this is not made by Bethesda. Some of them mentioned putting over 10000 hours in the original game. They also talked about what a privilege it was to work on the game. To me, it sounds like they had plenty of passion for it. But there’s nothing wrong with you holding out for Skyblivion if you’d rather play that. Respect for you at least having a measured take on it.

    I remember Oblivion too well to replay vanilla right now. I’ll probably try it out a decade from now modded out the wahzoo.
