Where is the new experience?

[DzenRus]

I bought this game. And I started enjoying it until I realized that I've already done all this. Yes, Oblivion is good and even better than Skyrim, but in fact, I've already had this experience. And more than once. Now I'm playing Oblivion, but I keep thinking about all those games that came out recently. And I bought them, but I haven't even started playing them yet. Goodbye, Oblivion, I'll go play other games. I'm too old to chew on the same thing over and over again.

uhh, yea, it's a remaster, not a remake

what'd you expect?

[kdodds]

Have you never played a remaster before?

[Rim Carrey]

Yeah...it's a remaster... Not a remake.. It was literally advertised as the same game, but with better graphics, ui, leveling, and slightly upgraded combat..

I've played Mad Max two times to 100%.
Well once to really 100% and in my recorded playthrough to almost (as there is no Scrap Crew available anymore so you cannot get 100% anyways oO).

Video gaming is about the entertainment and engagement. Some are grindy, but that just adds to the joy if done correctly.

The new level system is definitely less than a grind and was a big relief.
Streamlined, but definitely not dumbed down as Skyrim.



But yeah... Whatever floats your boat.

And yet you own it still, so sounds more like a buyer's remorse problem than anything I need to worry about.

I'm playing this one while a developer sorts out their issues on another game (and they seem to be doing just that, which means I'll have another game to play after this one).

Nothing wrong with going back to a game you enjoyed as I've done it many, many times with many, many games, but if you were expecting something different in a remaster, you misunderstand the word.

It's the same game just with modern graphics. So that's that.

Last time I played this game was back in 2012. I remember a lot about this game as it was very well made but can’t say I remember all the details. So revisiting it after over a decade is fun.

Honestly I just bought it to have an open world rpg to play while I wait for more content for Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.

I want something fresh and exciting! Oh I know! I'll buy Oblivion: Remastered! WTF this JUST like the game from 2006!

I don't understand what you expected. I wonder what the thought process was behind your choice to purchase a remaster only to come to the revelation that yes, indeed it is a remaster.

Remastered. Not Remake.

I'm playing the OG as I need an extra SSD and having an blast but not played Oblivion since Skyrim, but remember I played it lots of time so got bored by the mage guild quest line to get into the university.

Personally if I love a book or a film I can watch it more than once. Turns out that the same goes for video games especially after a 13 year gap between plays.
