This game is pretty much dead on arrival

Everyone is busy buying and playing the shadowdropped Oblivion remastered lol both paid & gamepass and I'm sure there's a huge playerbase overlap

RIP

Who wants to play a twenty year old game that's being shovelled out for £50 by a greedy dev? Better to play something new for less money tbo.

It's been a decade Bethesda has released nothing but mediocre games at best yet normies rush for their newest slop. It's simply beyond my comprehension.

It's like they all collectively forgot how much of a mid-shortcoming starfield was.


Oblivion was far from the best Elder Scrolls anyway and was such a dip in quality over the previous games, so I don't understand the nostalgia either.

Man why is steam full of those trolls? Nope, just nope. Oh my another unfunny Bethesda game.

Valve doesn't give a ♥♥♥♥ about the "community" side of their ecosystem and probably profit off of the points farming somehow.

Nintendo is the big bad right now, even though half of the outright is based on false information, so Bethesda gets to be the good guy "because $50 remastered game good".

They changed very little about the glaring issues the original game had, specifically with regards to the scaling of enemy & player power. Weapon attacks still hit like wet noodles after the enemies scale up to a certain point.

Some of us remember OG Oblivion unmodded, your option was to either swing a 2h weapon 40 or 50 times to drop an enemy, even when you had max weapon skill with the top weapon you could craft, or be a mage with custom created destruction magic who throws up 3-4 buffs, then proceeds to 1-2 shot everything.

And Bethesda refuses to offer mod support.

Rave reviews so far, significantly improved graphics, and the game was already originally good. Seems like it's going to do well. Not that there's going to be a significant overlap between these two games. I've already purchased both tho

It's so over 🤭

I been excited for this game Expedition 33 since i saw the first trailer. No remaster of an old 2009 game is gonna make me miss this game. I also am not in the habit of paying more for an old game remastered than a nice new one like Expedition 33, so the remaster of Oblivion can certainly wait until the price is low, which will no doubt be around the time i finish this game. So not really even a choice for me because this game is my most anticipated game this year so far.

If a 2025 game can't prevail over a (full priced) re-release of a 2006 game it deserves to bomb.

Already played Oblivion, already played Skyblivion, no reason to play it the remastered on launch.
