Review - The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "That’s the beauty behind the Oblivion remaster. It is still janky, occasionally ugly, and featuring some inexcusable bugs, but the core game is so good, so damn immersive and entertaining, you will keep on playing it for hours on end. It’s an updated and (ever so slightly) improved way to experience a classic RPG that doesn’t feel like it’s already 19 years old. Grab an axe, improve your charisma stats, completely ignore the plot and the urgency behind the main critical path, and immerse yourself in the land of Cyrodiil. You’ll spend hundreds of hours doing so, probably up until Bethesda finally finishes up developing The Elder Scrolls 6… or another version of Skyrim."

" It doesn’t matter if you’re on High, Low, DLSS, FSR, with a 4080 or a 2070: the framerate will constantly fluctuate from 120fps to 20fps, for no apparent reason."

And the game writer went on to give it an 8...

On ps5 pro it never seemed to go below 30 and only for a few seconds. It's an unreal engine problem. It still not enough for me to put it down. 80 sounds right for what was a goty on first release.

Bethesda is better than ever under Xbox.

Here´s hoping they will transition from Creation Engine to UE5 or UE6 for TES VI and Fallout 5 the same way they did with Oblivion Remastered

andy855d ago

Better than ever? They've released an average game in Starfield and an absolute disaster in Redfall. Now don't get me wrong I love Oblivion but "under Xbox"? they've prettied up a game the actual talent created 20 years old and have since left. Stellar new experiences remain to be seen for that better than ever tag.

Didn´t known that Todd Howard left Bethesda. Besides, bring actual proof that the devs behind Oblivion left, because I think you´re on some lying bullsh!t here. I´ll wait.

Redfall and Starfield were made way before MS bought them.

Would Bethesda still be the same without Creation Engine? I play Bethesda games for their “charm” no need to make them use the same tools as everyone else. You’re right though, they’re on fire atm. Hopefully they deliver another classic with ES6

Also the Skyblivion team invited to Bethesda Studios, now that is a dev I can respect.

Unlike some other studios who are pieces of shit along with Nintendo.

It's definitely closer to a remake as well and for only $50 when they definitely could've charged $70 and still sell very well because of the name. Good on bethesda.

Imagine what RDR2 remaster would do. If the rumors are true about Red Dead and GTA4 remake just buy Take 2 stock now

joab7774d ago (Edited 4d ago )

I love how everyone says Bethesda is back. No. The company that made this game has proven they are AAA status when it comes to remaking games. They deserve 90% of the credit.
Though I’ll give Bethesda credit for allowing it to happen.

I do WISH they had t dropped it at the same f time as Clair Obscura, literally the best new IP in years.

Did they fix the game yet or did the modders already fix it?

Modder turns Oblivion Remastered into a "true" first-person experience with immersive camera tweak

A modder unhappy with how the first-person camera view was implemented in Oblivion Remastered decided to make a better one (with a few bugs).

anast5d ago

Of course they did. Bethesda should do an RPG maker at this point.

MrWood5d ago

True first person is just adding the Unreal Engine VR mod. Runs perfectly!
