Oblivion Remastered revisited: profound problems have yet to be addressed

Digital Foundry: "Returning to Oblivion Remastered for a second round of console testing brings a great many issues to light. This isn't a PS5 versus Xbox issue; all are affected by hitching, crashes, bugs, major sub-60fps drops, and an uneven 30fps line on quality mode. The chance to revisit with a focus on PS5 consoles only underlines the scale of its issues across a breadth of platforms - and the pressing need for a patch to resolve these profound issues."

It also has a quick save bug that's corrupting save data and the camera breaks the longer you play and eventually crashes when loading a save

Definitely taking a break. I haven't had any major problems yet but the more horror stories I read the more I'm reminded of my ordeal on the PS3 with FO3. Not trying to relive those moments. 😆

But it is still 10/10 right? because muh Bethesda and muh Fantasy.

anast30d ago (Edited 30d ago )

I was right. This stuff should have been included in the initial reviews. Everyone giving this game a 10 out the gate only to turn around a month later and show everyone the actual product. This stuff is sleazy to the bone.

you weren't. You said it was bad, no depth and that bethesda has no talent. All proven wrong with this game. The spellcrafting alone has more depth and customization than all your favourite plastic box makers games from this gen combined.

anast29d ago

Hello Micheal. Go through my history. I said those things a long with it being a fundamentally bad game. None of it was proven wrong either.

Microsoft and Bethesda 'quality control'. Embarrassing.

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

andy8520d 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.

"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."

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.

Abear2120d ago (Edited 20d ago )

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

PRIMORDUS21d ago

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.

Goodguy0120d ago

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.

Abear2120d ago (Edited 20d ago )

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

joab77720d ago (Edited 20d 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?
