Elder Scrolls Oblivion Remastered FAILED by Ignoring Modern Diversity Standards

[Muhammad Muhammad]

1. CHARACTER CUSTOMIZATION IS STUCK IN 2005
The remaster’s “updated” creator still forces players into binary gender roles and exclusively Eurocentric features. Want a non-binary Khajiit? A Black elf with culturally accurate hairstyles? Too bad. Bethesda’s laziness left Cyrodiil feeling like a medieval Trump rally—no room for anyone but sword-swinging white saviors.

2. CYRODIIL’S “MULTICULTURAL” LORE? ERASED.
TES lore explicitly describes Cyrodiil as a melting pot of Colovian warriors, Nibenese mystics, and marginalized beast races. The remaster? A Disney-fied medieval Europe where Khajiit are “exotic” props and Argonians are silent laborers. The Nibenay Basin’s East Asian-inspired culture? Gone. Bethesda sanitized the lore to placate fans who think “diversity” means adding one (1) Black guard in the Imperial City.

3. QUEER REPRESENTATION? MODDERS STILL HAVE TO DO BETHEsDA’S JOB
The Fighter’s Guild is still led by the same cishet white dude. The Mages Guild? A straight man’s ivory tower. The Adoring Fan’s pansexual energy from lore? Erased. Meanwhile, NexusMods’ “LGBTQ+ Restoration Patch” hit 100K downloads in a week because Bethesda couldn’t be bothered to acknowledge queer people exist.

4. SALES FLOPPED – AND BETHEsDA KNOWS WHY
500K copies sold in the first month (vs. Skyrim AE’s 2M).

Metacritic User Score: 5.8/10, with “tone-deaf” and “dated” as top tags.

It's simple - it's a remaster of old games. Even Remake will not take stuff like that. Base idea is simple - make new version, for new hardwer but still same game without big lore/NPC/custamization change. Big stem is type A nad B. It's good like it is. Stuff like U say can be in new one but not in remaster.

If you look at what they said this is the most promised thing they promised it over 271 times!

As I'm sure you know points 1 2 and 3 (whether true or not) are just a commentary on the original game and would need a remake to change.

Point 4 is just flat out wrong. The metacritic score is 82% Critic and 7.5/10 User, and of course the steam user score is also 82% to further demonstrate people are loving this game.

We also know that there have been at least 4 million players, how many of those were on Gamepass we don't know but clearly by any metric the game is a massive success.
