16x-less detail.

What a shame! I'd be interested in checking it out if it had been to a high standard. Sounds very shoddy

I thought the series x version was great, and I played 20 or so hours of the pc version on the xbox ally x with no issues at all.

Not really sure what all the issues are on the ps5 version, but it cant really be that bad.

Better off with the 360 version

Hopefully this means they might bother to fix it.

I bought the Remaster and honestly found it pretty boring. If you have memories of playing it 20 years ago, there's a lot for you there, but unless you have that link, I don't know if Oblivion really stands the test of time.

@Runex2121 The game is a mess everywhere. DF literally done a video last month highlighting how broken it is on everything still.

I put a few hours into it on PS5 Pro and it's a stutter fest, i lost interest then uninstalled.

A "mess" is a real stretch for me. Paid £30 for a game that crashed 3-4 times over 200+ hours. I went into it eyes open to save every 10minutes just in case like I do every RPG.

I don't remember any other serious issues as was more invested in having fun on an old game I never fully completed the first time.

@wildcat_kickz The one thing that really stood out to me is how insanely dull some of the quest design is.

Back in the day I thought the NPC AI was borderline revolutionary. But now, having to actually wait days in-game for NPCs to go about their business before you can continue a quest is insane.

Holy *******! The trailer already has framedrops!

The base game from 20 years ago is a broken pile of poorly optimized spaghetti code full of game breaking bugs and glitches that were never addressed, and now we have that slop running inside the worst optimized UE5 container the gaming industry has seen to date.

Oh and it’s not on disc. Normally I’d lash out against not being able to permanently own something, but this is the type of trash that should be taken away from everyone and the drive with the source code on it taken out to the New Mexico desert and added to the landfill where they buried the Atari version of E.T.

@wildcat_kickz I wholeheartedly agree with you. With the combat department lacking for me it was a bit of a slog to see it through to the end. It had its moments but I need to see plenty of footage for Elder Scrolls 6 before I jump in.

As much as their worlds and sandboxes are the main draw Bethesda games, it'd be nice to have some modern combat mechanics to go with it.

The PS5 version will be fixed by Saturday, October 23rd, 2077.

In Todd Howard We Trust!

@wildcat_kickz oh I feel you, man.
What a waste of time..... I always fell for it ....

The trailer looked preeeetty choppy.

For what it's worth, the Switch 2 version of Fallout 4 is close to what I'd call mind-blowing. Having an experience that rich and big running at 60fps on a handheld device is nuts. But it looks like DLSS isn't going to be enough to save Oblivion Remastered.

@wildcat_kickz yeah, having played Skyrim first, Oblivion was a let down

I platinum'd it. It's not that bad.

Virtuos actually has a really strong track record with Switch/2 ports, so ironically this might actually run better than the PS5 and Xbox Series versions.

@Ludacritz

The platinum or the game?

I wanted to play this (if it was in any fit state), but the state they released, and left it in was laughable at best. I wouldn't bother playing it if it were free.

And this version actually has a full physical release....on the most expensive physical format. Wild.

After playing Starfield on PS5, I have no tolerance for Bethesda releasing games in such a bad state. BGS has lost my trust. They can hype up their future polished turds as much as they want, but I've been burned enough. I would say ES6 could be a good redemption story, but their history of awful, janky, crash-ridden releases has taught them that they lack accountability, of which I share in the blame for buying Starfield.

@Runex2121 I have like 60 hours in on the Base PS5. Had some issues at launch with frame rate, but really haven't noticed any major issues after the first few patches.

I generally don't mind performance hiccups though, so maybe I'm oblivious.

@D6rkLordS6t6n this exactly! I won’t be giving them any more of my money on launch until after their games release and I can verify they run and play glitch-free.

I still remember the review

The reason I stopped playing it on ps3 was because a bugged quest left me stuck as a vampire. I will not be checking out the remaster after eveyrthing I've read about it.

I’m convinced that Bethesda doesn’t know how to fix a lot of there bugs and performance issues without breaking by a million other things so they just…don’t. They are truly a ***** developer.

I dont think enough people realize that these are contracted jobs. Maybe its been radio silence because the contract was fulfilled...game ruining bugs be damned. We really dont know any of the fine print between Bugthesda and Virtuous. Not trying to be a cynic but maybe both parties were satisfied and thats that.

Still is wild how the only proper physical release for this game apparently and Indiana Jones is the switch 2 version.

This was the game where I learned the lesson don’t get burned by any more shadow drops, unfortunately.

As expected from Bugthesda but also no sympathy for people who keeps buying their games despite they know Bugthesda history for broken games.

Of course it is. Because Bethesda have absolutely zero idea about quality control and are pretty much the laziest developers out there.

I wonder how many times this was delayed before release

i don't get why they can waste money putting the game on a cartridge, but spending a few cents for have the game full on disc for ps5 users is not possible.

Yeah, I wouldn't pick it up. Because if it does not launch in perfectly stable condition, Bethesda is not going to fix it.
Spoilers: it will not launch in perfectly stable condition.

Can we just say it? Bethesda sucks

I don't know about oblivion, but Skyrim never had a single bug fixes across multiple re-releases. I don't know why people keep buying Bethesda games, specifically those running on the (bug) creation engine.
