Getting a fresh install ready so I can try one final time to get it properly and consistently working for myself with a couple different tweaks + tips I've seen I know it can, there's just something bungling it in the background as I play

>Be me >Hate OneDrive >Uninstall OneDrive as the first action I take upon installing Windows >That was years ago >Be today >Oblivion Remaster is eating my life and I love it >Microsoft is angry with me for uninstalling OneDrive and hiding their pop-ups >They reinstall OneDrive through Windows Update >My 10 hour save of Oblivion Remaster is gone Fuck this. I'm going to either Linux or Playstation. How does the PS5 Pro run Oblivion? Is it at least upscaled 4K at stable 60 FPS?

We won

Disintegrating enemy weapons doesn't work properly. Instead of dropping broken weapons, enemies lose the ability to attack.

>>1252935 >playing the nublivion You lost

>>1252935 Nice. >>1253057 Also true. Also, did they fix conjuration? And does Mannimarco's new design look cool?

I see anyone playing on master difficulty using a one-handed sword + shield. Is everything else that much worse?

>>1253068 Blunt gives you a weak shield upon heavy attacking. Blade gives your enemy weakness upon power attacking. It's really just a choice between being more tanky VS killing faster.

They keep trying to say all the original gamebyro systems are there and still working but I'm absolutely confident they are not. In the original game I never once walked into a room and saw every single character spawn out of the same corner all at once, knocking props everywhere as they all scrambled to find their intended positions. And the NPCs just freeze up entire after saying rumors to each other instead of walking away and obeying their normal schedule. There's a very real possibility that radiant AI might have been gutted entirely.

>>1253174 >radiant AI might have been gutted entirely Oh gods no. What am I suppossed to do when John Oblivion doesn't eat his carrots at 9pm?

i found the console key on AZERTY keyboards, it's the bottom left key near "Maj" ,it's the > < key, the one with the two arrows going in the opposite directions.

What did they mean by this?

also conjuration seems to be the play early game in Master difficulty, the basic skeleton can rekt the enemy in like two or three hits and bring the aggro on him.

>>1253274 after the horse balls in R2D2, Todd added the horse pussy in Oblivion. next, the horse dick in TES 6, we are progressing slowly but surely towards radiant AI having horse mating scripts in the wild.

>>1253245 Well if it's they case of them not eating then you couldn't assassinate that one dude stealthfully with the poisoned apple, which would be a pretty huge issue if your characters built for an assassin

>>1253294 *It's the*

>>1253276 That was the way things were in original Oblivion as well. The difficulty slider made your personal damage lower and the mob health/damage higher. Summons were counted as mobs. Effectively, a summon will perform the same across all difficulties because they scale the same way the enemies do. I question the point of playing on higher difficulties at that point, but you do you.

>>1252930 Shouldn't have uninstalled OneDrive, silly anon. Next you will tell me you accidentally uninstalled Cortana. How could you be so careless? Don't worry I will put it back on. Oh, and I saw someone put a malware on your computer, called "Grub', don't worry I removed it for you, now your computer will start Windows much faster. Don't need to thank me, all I ask is for you to never leave me.

So what's the verdict on the remaster? Is it worth the asking price or just more of the same with a new coat of paint?

>>1252935 kino

>>1253316 I would unironically be more attached to Windows if they added an AI anime girl to talk to. As it is, I'm looking for alternatives because of Onedrive.

>>1253276 Poisons, summons and making enemies fight each other with illusion spells are uneffected by difficulty.

>>1253320 This is unironically my GOTY 2025. Completely worth t to me, but it's completely determined by your attachment to Oblivion as a title.

>>1253328 Sorry, best we can do is either a paperclip or a dog.

>>1253320 it's more than a coat of paint, people talk about the poor performances but you just need to lower the settings and possibly use DLSS and you're good to go, lowering most settings doesn't even lower the quality that much. people always forget how poorly the OG game runs, and personally i have more performances on the remaster with an I5 13600K + RTX 3070 + Samsung 990 Pro 2TB SSD + a 3440x1440p monitor than i ever did on 1080p lmao. i use a mix of high/medium/low settings with DLSS on quality and i run at 60+ FPS outdoors.

>>1252930 Deserved for playing this garbage instead of modding the original.

>>1253245 You do realize those systems were the only thing that gave these games their niche and level of success, right? You're going to seriously disregard the biggest reason I'd ever even touch a Bethesda game over countless other games that satisfy that same niche. You're fucking retarded.

>>1253356 Running the game on a system with an i 7 11700kf and RTX 4080. Everything on Ultra, Lumen Hardware off, Lumen software High. DLSS Quality. Locked 60 FPS.

>>1252930 How can a person be so bad at computers? Seriously consider jumping in front of a train, retard.

>>1253462 Should mention I have a 4K monitor.

>>1253471 next time just mention the resolution you run the game in instead

>>1253476 Yeah, but if I do that people will say that running DLSS isn't running 4K native. If I say I have a 4K monitor while running DLSS, it's understood that it's upscaled.

>>1253496 What are you so afraid of? What happened to you?

>>1253514 Half-chan /v/ happened to me, anon. Half-chan /v/ happened.

>>1253548 don't go back when it eventually comes back, none of you have to go back

>>1253320 It might be worth the price fully optimized. I can tolerate the Unreal frankenstein's monster of an engine if it was half the size and didn't run like frozen shit on everything but the absolute newest hardware.

>>1253567 I might not, if I'm being honest. The hack showed me that other outlets exist, and with how botted half-chan was, I kinda don't see the point of returning. I'll poke my head in to see if they make changes. I know that for a fact. I don't think I'll stay there, though. This place is less botted and more social.

>>1253597 This place had far more traffic during the beginning of gamergate, it was great for years.

>>1252570 My computer can't run the remake, but I pirated the GoG version just to try it for the first time, seeming that the game became popular now. I try for a vanilla playthrough, went straight for main quest objectives, but one of the add-ons was close to the main objective, and it basicly gave me a free castle (Battlehorn) for "killing" a few maraduers, most of whom wiped off each other with spells and arrows, and by the castle man at arms (one of those died though). It's kind of retarded, or the game have extremely low value for real estate. Also havent seen any oblivion gate (know of the existence of those from Skyrim), is there a quest trigger before those start appearing, and is there any point to delay with that (without too much spoilers)?

>>1253631 >is there a quest trigger before those start appearing Do the main quest. The trigger is one of the early main quests. You'll know when.

>>1252930 get a console retard, you're in over your head

>>1253631 First, if you're running a character with swords (Blade skill) you should go back and search Battleborn Castle. There's a candle on the wall that you can activate to open the basement area and there's a secret sword there. Second, yeah. Oblivion gates don't start showing up until after you get through Kvatch (Main Quest)

>>1253646 I found my save. It was in the non-OneDrive documents folder. When OneDrive reinstalled, it changed the symlink to the OneDrive folder, which wiped the Steam Cloud save. I have it. I just don't want to have to make physical backups.

>>1253316 At least you'll go down with me October this year, cunt

>>1253328 You can ask Copilot to address you in a tsundere manner, though sometimes you might need to butter it up a bit before the lobotomy stops making it think that's unhelpful and unprofessional.

>>1253274 When will there be a centaur girls mod?

>>1253721 I have ChatGPT Plus, so I can just load it up if I want to actually talk to an AI. Right now I'm using it to draw broken ass images of My spouse's character hugging my Orc.

>>1253338 Ok, but can it be a *sexy* paperclip?

>>1253067 >And does Mannimarco's new design look cool? He does look like a legendary necromancer now, yes.

What will come first? A proper non-Reshade color correction mod. Or sex?

>>1253779 Lover's Lab is already hard at work porting the old mods now that we know old mods can get ported to the Remaster.

>>1253787 It's really strange how the game doesn't support mods, but it does support mods under the hood.

>>1253787 ???? How would that work? I mean, the sex mods for oblivion were meant to look "good" on the original gamebryo models, they want to slap old gamebryo models onto UE5? Uh? I'm very confused.

>version 0.4 on the pause screen ???

>>1253811 I feel like I should generate terabytes of sloppa of Lifts-Her-Tail There's not enough porn of her

>https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/659 She fucks Nords btw

>>1253811 >Nezumi

>>1252570 >body types >people still bought the slop there's no redeeming. modern gaming is fucked

>>1254123 >bought

>>1254207 sorry, boughtered

>>1254057 >>1254082 Nice, too bad khajiit are furries and nighteye sucks Need this for bretons

>>1253320 Imagine a game from 2006 running worse than the sequel that came out in 2011 kek

is there a patch yet to fix this awful ghosting?

>>1254371 this https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/35 plus switching to the latest dlss version + preset K in nvidia inspector sorta kinda made it better

>>1254439 nice, gotta try that. thanks

Why has no one posted what they look like yet

Probably been asked a ton already, but is it genuinely worth playing? I keep thinking about buying it but it just feels a bit like fomo what with all the hype. I'd be playing on ps5 if I did

>>1254057 >>1254082 We are slowly coming back.

I just wanna know if you guys use dlss sharpening because at 100 the grass looks really weird. It also tanks the fps a bit but that’s not an issue for me. I’ve been tweaking with the setting for a while now and I think I prefer the sharpening being at 0 after all

>>1254563 put it at 50%

Modders are working quick

(reply to previous thread's posts, sowwy) >>1245139 >>1245163 I still don't understand how two engines at once are supposed to be running, or that Unreal is a "graphical wrapper" around Gamebryo. My first instinct is that they ported the OBScript interpreter into Unreal and maybe various definition files (items, NPCs) are also parsed directly - that would make more sense to me and would seem both like a good alternative to converting every script/config/text data into something else (which would be a custom format anyway) AND it would be easy for outside people to conflate that with "oh it's really two engines at once".

god im hungry

>>1254703 as a noncoomer i'd still like a Better Bodies. there's zero notion of tits in this remaster and every female has those tiny manboob mounds that modern audiences love.

>best melee race is redguard >can only get them to look like a jeet at most now Anyone managed to make a good looking redguard yet? Or are folk just playing what they like?

seems someone finally ported a mod with a new building and new interior cells, now someone needs to modify existing NPCs and add new NPCs and new NPCs with new dialog and quests https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/640

Which era was the best?

There are times when it looks generally very high end. In certain caves, in the Oblivion gates, or nighttime vistas in the northern area. Those will just look very good to most players, even if it's just normal features of UE5 being used.

>>1255017 with r.fog 0 it generally looks pretty good, but it makes water reflections wonky

>>1254978 Damn, we're getting the interregnum in real life ???

>>1255029 Francis may have been the reason this franchise was stalling for a decade. Let's wait and find out.

My Imperial City House... now with lumens... home...

>>1254542 Still find it funny that Nezumi made folk thirsty for pic related. Also surprised no one ever modded her to look better. The orcs had the absolute worst hairstyles jesus.

>>1255091 absolutely harambe

WHENS THE FUCKING PERFORMANCE FIX PATCH

>>1255028 >turn off Lumen >game now runs at a solid 60fps >looks like Dark Souls 2 global illumination now though

>>1255091 It was a different time, anon. People forget what life was like before SFM hit and everyone had a model rip of every simi-attractive character from every new video game release within hours. Pic related was what we were masturbating to back then. Dark times.

look at him

>>1255131 he's a big guy

This game is insanely foggy

>>1255126 I still remember the first big mod I played was this weird dungeon/questline where you had to fight through this massive chapel style dungeon filled with pretty anime girls, and it was barely translated and you were trying to get to some “white wing” little anime girl. I did the whole thing in the berserk armor. Oblivion really shaped a lot of my tastes now that I think about it….

>>1255144 Four arms

>>1254918 Yeah I agree, we need Better Bodies and an overhaul for character and NPC heads/faces, mostly Khajiits and Argonians plus some elf NPCs. Basically the same shit you needed for the 2006 original, kek.

the lake rumare ring quest is still bugged

It took a good few hours for it to "click", but I'm having a very good time now at level 15. ReShades are practically essential because default lighting is kinda ass May install a mod to change difficulty of Expert mode - Adept is too easy and Expert is too tanky Gonna complete Mage's Guild and a few Daedric Artifact quests tonight i think Anyone know a good method of hiding the HUD for screenshots?

>>1254538 I'd say yeah since I've been having fun, but do you like Bethesda games/OG Oblivion?

>>1255210 SOVL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GZmae8kuu8 oh no

>>1255236 The Ayleid reshade sucks, it's too blue.

>>1255159 I feel like a mod that tweaks the fog to be much more subdued would work better than just flat out disabling it. Some aerial perspective is good, the original had it too, but the remaster looks like permanent England or dreamy haze.

>>1255236 I can't fucking stand Reshade and I hate that using it as a crutch is normal for so many people. It never works. I don't understand how people tolerate it. You can do the same thing by jacking the hue and saturation on your monitor but you get better framerates from that. It looks good in the ONE scene you set it up for and everywhere else it will look off. Go in the sewers and take a screenshot. I want a proper color correction mod.

>>1255261 LOW ENERGY AS FUCK, IT'S OVER

I feel like this is the only game I'll make an exception to using frame generation with since it's slow paced enough for me not to notice all the bad things about FG

well after about 15 hours i'm turning the difficulty down. I like enemies being tankier but I am so sick of being one-shot by some spell or arrow fired at me from a distance. It was fun for a while, I suppose.

>>1255262 Well I like it, so checkmate. They did an update that's less blue and looks a bit better in interiors >>1255271 Does ReShade fuck with frames? Havent noticed any hits but I only played for like an hour before putting it on. Personally I prefer reshade over sticking with the dry-ass color tone of vanilla - though a color correction mod is definitely ideal

>>1255210 Works on my machine (I spent an hour looking for those SHIT fish)

how do you see spell required skill lvl? how do you unequip/unsummon bound weapon to grind conj faster?

>>1255271 >I want a proper color correction mod. same, i refuse to use reshade, it's just ass

>>1255338 You see a warning if you are trying to craft a spell that you can't cast yet. Note that the game is retarded and will fail to do this if you have multiple effects on the same spell. Spell exp now scales with mana cost, you no longer need to powerlevel by spamming weak shit. You also level up from all skills, so feel free to restart with a more sane class choice if you where planning to summon storm astronachs at level 1. The the game still has a wait function, take wild guess how it interacts with a conjure dagger spell.

>>1254563 In most game sI use it at 66% but at this one I like it better at lower levels. Try 30-40%.

is it now 64 bit instead of 32?

>>1253647 They definitely show up before Kvatch or even Weynon Priory. Unfortunately.

>>1255240 Yeah I've always had a soft spot for Oblivion, from what I gather though it seems pretty true to the original, whereas there was a lot of criticism for remasters such as Demon Souls or SotC. My main concern was how similar it is to remasters such as those but I've not seen people complain nearly as much as those remasters

>>1255528 It's oblivion with better graphics and more sensible leveling, by which i mean leveling your skills and attributes, level scaling is just as silly as it was in the original. Melee also feels much better with the added hit reactions.

Do I want to give Microsoft and Todd my money, which they totally deserve in this day and age for all of the things they do that definitely don't piss me off constantly, or get the new Frog RPG Claire Obscure Expedition 33 or whatever its called?

>>1255236 >Anyone know a good method of hiding the HUD for screenshots? I use Unreal Engine Unlocker. Basically a photomode mod with freecam, hud hider and a bunch of other features. Also works as a surrogate reshade since reshade gives me insane mouse drag/stutters/whateverthefuck.

Anyone know which DLSS preset to use? K is giving me horrible ghosting.

sleeping on the water?

>>1255668 Which one does the game use by default? I think it has great image stability but it’s so shimmery.

>>1255660 Doesn't the creator jew you for 6 bucks for this thing? Got a free link?

>>1255668 >>1255684 thats UE5's dogshit lumen raytracing. Played STALKER 2? It looks exactly the same.

>>1255704 kemono party for patreon stuff nigga

>>1253631 >mfw reaching master rank in restoration Time to return to frostcrag, craft myself a couple fortify spells and ascend to godhood

>>1255668 nvm, restarting the game seems to have fixed it, guess it was because I fucked with the settings. K is definitely the way to go.

people reported that when you changed the graphical settings, you need to restart the game or it will lag a lot. so apply recommended settings and restart.

>>1255593 Great fuck it that's my night sorted

>engine optimization ini mod >item level scaling >no lumen any other mods?

>>1255895 ive heard you should change stuff in the main menu because shit lags and bugs out ingame

>>1255895 All settings or RT settings? RT switches not working in unreal games is hardly unheard of.

BEHOLD! my first mod. UE5 modding is hell

>>1256197 It's beautiful

>>1255980 Faster horses

>>1256343 does this fix performance? if not i dont give a fuck

4chan is back btw

>>1256400 Captcha just died lmao

>>1256400 will jannies ban people for trying to discuss games instead of posting gacha goon images though? why bother then, TOTAL TRANNYJANNIE DEATH.

any mods that can help me get constant 60fps? Currently running all on low and getting 20-25fps pic related is my laptop appreciate the help

>>1256400 Thank god - and stay out

nah i'll stay and browse both sites :))

>>1256495 kek what gpu? >512Mb play the OG

4chan is gone

>>1256495 >>1256912 so there's still a chance?

>>1256495 >>1256986 idk but try pic related

>>1255980 >Better Reticle: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/164 >Less Ugly Black Infoboxes: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/222 >No Vignettes: https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/177 Very minor, but imo they add a lot to visual clarity.

>>1254371 This has to be something in UE5 itself. I have DLSS and Frame Gen off and I'm still getting it.

>>1256495 >>1256986 Play the original game. The following mods are needed: >Fixes the leveling system https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/49134 >Fixes faces https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/44676 >Adds controller support https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/48577 >Needed for those three mods to work https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/37952 https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/43752 https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/32200 https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/49568 I recommend you use the "Vanilla Style" version of Northern UI.

>>1257257 do you have one that doesn't limit the game to 32-bit? if not, i guess i'll pirate the unreal slopgine version then, no sex mod kind of sucks but it's better than crashing after a few hours playing.

Is there something wrong with durability? I'm having gear breaking from fighting a single enemy here.

>>1257314 You have an AMD GPU Just load up Linux and play the original through Proton-GE. You won't crash. Ever.

>>1257321 Armorer is a VERY needed skill early-game. As you level your armor skill (Light or Heavy) your gear will start breaking slower.

>>1257366 It's intentional? I basically need to repair my entire kit after each enemy.

The vendors gold balance doesn't go down when I sell them stuff. Is this a bug or did they change this? I don't mind just curious

>>1257406 That's normal

>>1257393 What difficulty are you playing on? >>1257406 That's normal. Vender gold is static and only controls the max price they can buy items at. With a high enough mercantile skill you can "Invest" money into their shop to make it go up. Late game items will easily murder the base 500g shop sell max once you get into spell crafting/enchanting/late-game alchemy where you can make potions from single ingredients.

>>1257473 I haven't touched difficulty, so just whatever normal is.

>>1257516 You'd be on adept, then. Are you still using the "Rusty" gear from the tutorial area?

Although the way he runs makes it seem like he's running like Naruto, the third-person animations are better than the originals.

>>1257521 Nope, set of iron/steel

>>1257550 The dagger animations have me wanting to scrap my Orc Two-Handed Warrior character and play an assassin Argonian.

>>1257553 They shouldn't be breaking THAT fast. Are you only hitting them once with a repair hammer when you repair them? It takes multiple hits to fill the durability bar.

>>1257257 i alreasdy have the OG Oblivion though so no mods can help atm?

>>1257582 I am fixing them to 100% and they are getting shattered in the next combat.

>>1257597 No. It's far too early for performance mods like SMIM and Insignificant Object Remover to exist for the new game.

>>1257632 That shouldn't be happening unless your armor skill is at like 5 or less.

>>1252930 >updating windows You get what you deserve, retard. I bet you're on Win11 too.

>>1257642 Alright well fuck me, I guess. I downloaded a mod that triples the amount of repair hammers on the loot tables maybe that'll be enough.

>>1253320 It's Oblivion, but with a UE5 coat of paint. It depends entirely on your nostalgia for Oblivion and you feelings about UE5. I have no nostalgia for Oblivion and dislike UE5 because of its poor performance and tendency toward the generic "UE5 stock asset" aesthetic, so I personally consider it a novelty that's not worth the full price. Just pirate it.

>>1257550 The first-person dagger animation is nice (I haven't used daggers yet), but I find it weird that the animations for movement are outclassed by fucking Skyrim mods.

>Mod that claims to disable telemetry >There's no mention of telemetry anywhere in the remaster, except for the mod page itself >Comments are completely disabled "due to controversy" I don't trust this.

>>1257879 A Singapore studio was responsible for this remaster. The Singapores can't into animation. Pic very much related.

>>1257931 There's a mention of telemetry in the EULA, but we're currently assuming that this is simply because they copied and pasted the unchanged software licenses for the software used to port this thing.

>>1257550 Half of those animations are ripped from ESO, lmao.

>>1258016 the color palette is ripped from ESO too. fuck zenimax.

>>1254123 People with triple digit IQs don't base their purchase decision on culture war faggotry. Feel free to make a viral youtube video screaming about the sex choice in your basement. >>1255271 The right way to use reshade is to inject SMAA into old games that only support absolute irredeemable dogshit FXAA and effects like debanding into games with bad banding. Too many people use lit like they did sweetfx back in the day: making visual vomit with saturation and tint changes. >>1257406 Oblivion did a really weird experiment with vendor inventories. They have infinite money, but will only spend up to that limit per transaction when buying from you. You can tell how well that experiment went by them going back to a standard system with the very next game.

>>1258046 >old games that only support Nope. There are better solutions for that too like downsampling or Magpie.

>>1258031 Looking at it again. The lighting also seems the same.

>>1255261 there's already a mod to switch his voice back lol

hey guys. so, shame on me, but i haven't played the original oblivion yet, i was thinking about finally starting a playthrough and the remaster came out, so for the ones that already played it, how is it? does it lack the soul of the original or would you say its a good enough replacement for someone that never played the og?

>>1258119 If you have a machine capable of running it, play the remaster. It's like playing the original pre-modded to an acceptable degree. Even if you have to buy the damn thing on a console, play the remaster.

>>1258119 It has all the same jank soul as the original.

>>1252570 I couldn't initially run this on my 10 year old PC, it even says I don't have enough logic cores (6 is the requirement, I have a quad core) when I start the game. But with Lumens hard disabled and FSR3 hard enabled in Engine.ini, with the "optimized" Engine.ini as the base, I get like 55-60 frames outside and 100~ inside and that's on High settings no less. >>1252867 see above

>>1258119 the remaster is better because they got rid of some of the annoying engine bugs the OG game had, and it's obviously better in term of graphics and even gameplay. but it's Unreal 5 so you can't have a potato GPU.

>>1258227 they also did a fucky wucky with the physics, you can't keep stabbing corpses anymore, you can pick them up and flail around but part of the fun was overkilling a orc because he two shotted you 4 quickloads ago.

Could the remake Morrowind in the exact same way as this?

>>1258290 maybe yes maybe no stay tuned.

>>1258290 I highly doubt they'll bother. Morrowind would get a full-re imagining instead with cut-down dialogue, completely different UI, and hampered magic mechanics. Games like Oblivion and Fallout 3 are probably a lot easier to take this layered remaster/remake approach with since they were already predominantly designed for console audiences in comparison. The closest you'll get is downloading openmw and dumping a bunch of mods on top that smooth out combat, animations, and character models.

don't use Vortex to manage your Oblivion Remastered mods yet, because Vortex changes the plugin.txt order to alphabetically so you'll always crash on launch, to fix this (if you're crashing) there's a button on the "load order" page of vortex and hit the top button on the yellow banner "reset plugins file" and it will repair it back to default.

Do you think the mechanics are better than the original?

>>1258606 they're 99% the same as in the original

i have to like force myself not to do alchemy persuasion or spells or itll over level me and ill be facing glass/dwarf armor bandits in under a few hours hope they fix that shit for the next scrolls game, non combat skills affecting enemy levels is stupid

>>1258685 Level scaling is stupid full stop. Why even have levels at all if you're going to go down that path?

>>1252867 >>1258226 Just got back here to update, I got it working by doing basically the same thing but also messing with the vram settings

>>1258907 Now im auto walking into the cell corner, having an auto clicker go so I can leave with 100 sneak and 100 restoration

>>1258919 lmao enjoy fucking up your stats due to oblivion's retarded level up system

>>1258929 You know you choose when and how much you level up, right

>>1258130 >>1258172 >>1258227 appreciate it bros, will go for the remaster then

I just want to know ONE thing: did they fix the leveling system? I won't bother with this if they didn't

4chan is quintessentially dead btw, you can't even shitpost anymore

>>1259029 there's nothing wrong with the old leveling system, unless you are retarded and can't count up to ten.

>>1258935 oh shit they fixed the level up system? i honestly thought this game was just a copy paste with grafix

>>1259043 >warn instead of a ban they are trying to be sneaky really hard it's cute. if it's not gacha safe horny shit it gets warn/B&

>>1259062 Anon, I must have over 2000 hours in Oblivion, half of them vanilla, and I'm tired of pretending the level system is okay.

>>1259062 it was crap

>>1259067 That's always been the case They fixed a lot of the issue by letting you always have 12 points to apply between up to 3 skills, but you can still get fucked pretty bad if you are choosing poorly

>>1259029 They made it so that you're free to allocate points into whatever stats you want increased regardless of what skills you used to level up at the cost of getting less stats compared to what you'd get with efficient leveling in the original

>>1259067 Okay I'm retarded, should have read the thread

>>1259094 Does that mean that you can now quickly level luck?

>>1259094 They also fixed endurance so it recalculates you max HP on level up instead of punishing you for leveling it late.

>>1259114 No they gimped luck specifically.

>>1259114 luck costs 4 points so no

>>1259122 >>1259127 So the thief birth sign is the best now since it gives you 10 luck

>>1259043 cant seem to post there getting bad gateway for captcha :(

wtf that spell kek

24 fps at this very specific spot in Kvatch on maxed out settings on 2k, no upscaler or framegen. I COULD turn down my settings but fuck you Todd, I didn't even have these issues with Starfield which has the same recommended specs. Worst I ever had in that was 55 FPS.

>>1259203 If we are min-maxing on raw stats, sure, but luck has always been kind of a tough thing to analyze, each point of luck is roughly 0.4 points to all your skills, so the thief basically gives you +4 to all skills. But individual points of a skill don't matter as much as the thresholds for the ranks and luck doesn't help there. Also that's assuming they didn't fuck with the damage calculation at all, which they could easily have shuffled some numbers around. Atronarch is probably the actual best because you can always fortify your luck later.

why do nudevs think this garbage is acceptable? also look at these terrible hitboxes lmao, they're way worse than the original

>>1259074 >>1259081 >take paper >take pencil >write 3 columns named 1,2,3 >assign attribute you want to rise to number >draw a line every time a skill under an attribute you want to rise levels up >at 30 lines level up Considering that you can buy training, that your favourite attributes are under skills you use, and that there's an excess of skills so you can splurge, there's literally no effort required to keep a loose track of leveling. Even a toddler can push strenght to 100 pretty soon if he makes a character that wields a sword. The only attribute you need to rush is endurance. Anything else reaches level 100 passively. To stuggle with it you need to be braindead. It's impossible not to max out your build's attributes passively. Unless you do something retarded like making a build around skills you do not intend to use, which might very well be the case since there's retards going around saying "you should level your character backwards for level scaling!". I play permadeath. I play these games at their hardest. A lot of oldfags that talk about these games have no clue of what the fuck they are talking about. Disregard gamefaq and other assorted bullshit, those threads are filled with morons that failed to understand the game and yet believe that they know what the fuck they are talking about. They don't and throughout the years they did huge disservices to new players that wanted to try the games.

>>1259260 you keep uploading like 6 mb images and 10 mb videos like this site isnt slow af and watching that shit will take 10 minutes to load

>>1259333 I use dice myself to keep track of how much of a skill tied to a specific stat I've increased

>>1259333 The old system was an annoying hassle. A cooler way to fix it would've been to let us keep unused bonuses including ones that get wasted because you can't get more than +5. What we ended up getting is pretty good too. I also love that they bothered to fix leveling magic and barter.

>>1259203 ehh i'd argue probably one of the magika boosters or The Lord. I'm not sure if there is a level cap, but for the most part attribute oosters seem replaceable by leveling up once or twice. The ones that provide greater powers are kinda bad. Lord provides a passive 15 armor rating and magic shield.

>>1252930 >They reinstall OneDrive through Windows Update Sounds like a you problem. I installed Tiny11 last year, updated via WU once, disabled it and haven't had a problem with anything ever since at all.

>>1259431 It's annoying only if you go OCD on it. You don't need to get +5 at every level. There's an excess of skills under any attributes, you are still going to reach 100, only slower. The only exception is endurance, you need to rise that to 100 as soon as possible. That was clearly an oversight, endurance should work like intelligence.

>>1259333 >>1259470 It's still annoying tedium. I'm glad it is gone.

>>1259470 you do if you remember the level scaling also applies to enemies

Is it worth getting any mods besides the engine tweak? Or should I wait a bit?

>IT'S OUT <IT'S OUT >IT'S OUT <IT'S OUT https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/706

>>1255261 There's no way this is true. It's just a falseflag isn't it? Just a lil bit of trolling, right?

>>1252570 >suddenly the game isn't letting me quicksave or quickload anymore >lets me save but no message >new save isn't listed >new save IS in folder Ah yes it truly wouldn't be a bethesda game without some script error eating your savedata. I'm going back to oldblivion, fuck this shit.

>>1255980 The 1st and the 3rd are 2 different copies of the same file. If you downloaded Lumen Begone and replaced your engine.ini with its own then you lose all the tweaks from the 1st one. Make sure to download the Lumen Begone Ultimate Engine Tweaks Bundle specifically, which is the engine.ini with the optimizations + the 2 prefs that Lumen Begone flips.

>>1259799 >>new save isn't listed >>new save IS in folder this makes no sense programming-wise

>>1255131 Interesting model, but all the grass is getting in the way of a proper view.

>>1259873 Two engines duct-taped together, please understand. I'm guessing that gamebryo happily writes out the save but whatever they did to index and group saves by character is broken shit since that wasn't originally a thing in oblivion.

>>1259536 Yeah cause the perk based system in skyrim is so much better! they just had to butcher enchanting, alchemy, all of magic and even longblade and blunt just so they could justify the skill trees! Wow, what an improvement! You are clearly not made for rpgs, stick to call of doodie. Fucking fallout 4 fan in the chat, taking the side of the dumbing down that turned bethesda games into trash. Muh no tedium though, counting up to ten too hard for the babby

>>1259560 level scaling becomes a problem if you power level and lack the gear to match your level. And it's not an "issue" related to the attribute system or its leveling method, skyrim works exactly the same. It's not the game or the system, it's you who fail to understand that taking a level 58 briarhearth head on with a steel sword and a leather armor isn't the right move. You lack the fundamental understanding of rpgs. Play something else, don't demand a solid system to be scrapped or be dumbed down just because you are too fucking retarded to understand it.

I'm gonna play the original with graphical mods and an enemy scaling fix and the remaster back to back.

>>1260383 The mods for the original has gotten pretty advance nowadays. There even stuff to add new skill like unarmored and enchanting.

>>1260270 so I"m a thief picking locks and sneaking and selling stuff to merchants and speechcraftingmax and suddenly I go outside and tere's bandits in daedric armor

>>1260270 >don't focus on combat >get fucked by Xivilai and Spider Daedra cool, cool

>>1260553 Yes, exactly that. Unmodded Oblivion is something like a Buddhist allegory for enlightenment, where the more you level up and the harder you struggle, the weaker you become.

>>1260167 Oblivion was the game that turned the series into dumbed down trash. You just have stockholm syndrome for its dogshit mechanics because you played it when you were 10.

>>1260609 The biggest drop in the series was Daggerfall > Morrowind though

>>1260641 Daggerfall was full of procedurally generated slop with such early 3D game technical limitations as >you can look >or you can attack >not both The only good thing that came out of it was the lore books, and all of those got copy-pasted into Morrowind anyways.

>>1260607 I don't think that was the intention behind the level-up messages, but it does fit perfectly.

>>1259267 Genius play by Todd to make people see how much better Creation Engine is

>>1260680 levelling up in TES is some sort of metatextual ascension to legitimate divinity

>>1260836 every religion or spirituality that has a version of hell will send you there for playing video games

>>1252930 Even with OD (full from day one so it doesn't fuck up my shit) OR has its files in a non-OD folder automatically. At least for me. >>1253320 I genuinely love it. My only complaint other than the size and graphical fuckery is lacking body sliders. Preferably the ones in FO4, but even Skyrim's is better than nothing. >>1253338 How the fuck am I actually nostalgic for them? >>1256495 >512mb vram HAHAHAHAHAAH no chance. The Remaster will not run for you >t. 4GB VRAM, still get a under-requirement warning (6GB)

>>1255166 I played that too as one of the first mods I played, couldn't find it again.

The one thing i havent noticed anyone suggest for improvement is playing with the oblivion.ini settings. lowering imingrasssize/windmagnitude and stuff like that has noticeably made the game smoother for me

Ok how long do you think untill nornalfags will jump onto the new^tm thing and stop caring about the remaster?

>>1262310 depends on whatever streamers and release schedules do. even schedule 1 is starting to lose traction now so maybe two weeks?

>>1262272 tell me more anon

It seems to me they at least finally fixed the leveling system to what it should have been like this whole entire time. It only took them decades to get it right.

>>1262463 Are you saying I shouldn't avoid leveling past level 5 now?

>>1262463 I'm pretty sure every enemy will still scale and wreck you if you're a thief leveling sneak or speechcraft

Isn't Oblivion the weakest entry in the series? Why didn't they remaster Morrowind if they needed cash?

What exactly is the difference between Drain, Absorb, and Damage on skills and attributes?

>>1262402 iMinGrassSize controls the amount of grass that spawns. in the ini, the higher the number the less. I think the default is 80. I run at 190 and you cant really tell the difference. grasswindmagnitude set to 0.00 will make it so that grass doesnt sway in the wind. lowering shadowmapresolution will give a bit of boost with no real difference Itreeclonesallowed allows more trees to be copy/pasted so theres less unique trees being spawned and simulated Theres a lot of shit in the oblivion.ini that can be turned down that most people wouldnt notice unless grass swaying is something you reaaaaaally need immersion for. A lot of it i dont know or remember exactly what it does. Just following guides from 15 years ago to increase performance. Everyone is stuck on the engine.ini for shit right now when the oblivion.ini is pretty much 1:1 and the same tweaks are still relevant.

>>1262753 Drain is a temporary debuff, it has a set duration, then the stat is returned, Drain health/fatigue/magicka drains Max health/fatigue/magicka. Absorb is like drain, except the stat stolen is also given to the caster. Absorb health deals normal damage and heals the caster. Damage to skills/attributes permanently reduces the stat until it is healed. Its pretty rare to encounter, but also not very useful to use on enemies.

>>1262794 damage health is the best enchantment you can have on a weapon because nothing in the game is immune to it

>>1262794 Damage intelligence and damage willpower poisons are useful against annoying casters

>>1252570 >that pic >argonians again look different from every previous depiction I know it's a rule at this point but can they try to keep the design of the race consistent in more ways then them being "the lizard people"?

>>1262753 >>1262794 Oh yeah, I should also clarify that 'damage' applies the value every second that it is active, while drain and absorb will apply their full value while the spell is active. This is why when you get access to the spell maker, you can make a bootleg Power Word Kill by having a spell drain 100 Health for 1 second. If a character has less then 100 max health, they die instantly. If they have more then 100, the drain effect will wear off almost instantly and they will be back to full. Absorb works like damage when acting on health magicka or fatigue, and like drain when acting on anything else.

>>1262779 Do I have to make that shit read only? I edited those values min and max to zero I am still seeing grass wind sway

Is there a work around for bows randomly not doing arrow damage/1x sneak multi yet?

I've played so much oblivion and other old rpgs recently I was genuinely confused when I was given a quest and there was no directions. How am I gonna find this persons house when you don't give me any instructions to get there? Then I realized there's a bigass compass telling me where to go.

>>1263591 they also added a spell called clairvoyance to guide you.

>>1263591 Meant to say "played so much morrowind" >>1263597 I don't think I've ever seen someone actually use that spell in skyrim. I guess its probably good for people who are completely new to video games

>>1263603 it's the spell for game journalists that can't pass a single dungeon lol

>>1253787 >hard at work i bet they are kkekekeke

You know if the eyes just looked at you when people talk to you that would eliminate like 90% of the weirdness.

>>1263263 I noticed that too, as well as bows not giving the 3x sneak multiplier when over 25 skill Not sure why it isn't being calculated or shown properly

>flame atronachs hover now >despite that they still make footstep sounds god dammit

>>1263861 niggers it's 2025 and i'm not fucking screenshotting, opening in PDN, cropping, then saving it again you will take the snipping tool paste and you will like it

>>1263861 If only google hadn't murdered jpegxl in cold blood.

Even he is affected, that was pretty funny.

>>1252570 I was stuck for a good hour because I had that game-crashing bug that happens in the Plane of Oblivion, where you're entering the exterior from Kvatch or one of the interiors and the game fucks itself over. I couldn't do the thing that fixes it because I'm playing it on Xbox Series X (with Game Pass), and I was guaranteed to crash on the bridge from the tower to the torture chamber, so what I did was sprint-hop while looking at the ground while crossing the bridge and it worked. Also holy shit the game's new graphics actually look nice for a change. Todd should just have Virtuos handle the graphics for their games from now on because they are never going to be able to put so many lovely little details everywhere like the remaster does.

>>1264141 fucking niggers

>>1264535 Maybe in Morrowind, with how Oblivion added in passive magicka regen it made the Atronach's stunted magicka debuff an unbelievably bad tradeoff.

>>1264558 It's a good sign to pick if you're not playing a mage, though.

>>1264558 >stunted magicka debuff That's literally the part that makes it fun and thrilling lol, you actually have to manage your magicka pool instead of spamming speels like a retard

>>1264571 SPEEEEEEEEEEEEEELS

>>1252570 >>1252930 why did they make the argonians so fucking ugly? mods to fix when?

>>1263839 There's already a mod

>>1265566 saw it, absolutely tasteless pic related is how you do it right

>>1265628 I want a mod that replaces the spider daedra with Queelag.

>>1262779 >>1262779 can you please set up a guide on how to do this? also general question. why the fuck can't I use the corpse masher elevator inside the "blood well" lower areas in The Plains of any Oblivion gate??? when i get up the corpse masher the game just auto jumps until I am outside the elevator and on the floor

>the text is still there >but the texture is mirrored god damn it

>>1265628 hot

>>1263609 Honestly its a great little spell. The pathfinding on the glowball is handy when the dungeon loops back on itself.

i wish there was a mod that let you zoom out and in like in skyrim. having a blast with the game though! just added some mods to fix the stutter and make the UI easier on the eyes.

Anybody done any number crunching to find out if the stats are all the same? I cant believe how much better the game feels just from having the players movement speed being so much higher.

>>1254100 she needs to do some remake draws unless they work in the industry on the down low

Is there a mod where npcs wont turn hostile after accidentally hitting them?

>>1263839 >>1265566 >>1265628 Interesting comparison to the Skyrim 4thUnknown mod. Any pictures of the spriggans?

Mod Organizer 2 is still the go mod manager like it was for Skyrim, right?

>>1266710 >the go mod manager like it was for Skyrim, right? always was, it's the best mod manager for anything bethesda related desu.

>>1266710 im manually installing stuff and it just werks

>>1266710 Manual is better if you know what you're doing. I find the VFS to be a nuisance.

>>1266303 the middle mouse button has first person view and two third person views, one more zoomed with the other. and if you man the map, you can access local view (works OUTSIDE dungeons too) by clicking on the small dot near the "+" and "-" icons on the right or you can just mouse scroll minus zoom until you get it.

>>1266462 i don't remember if it's also in Oblivion but what happens if you draw your sword/bow/weapon and then holster it ? in Skyrim the NPC's can forgive you.

>>1266490 >giving it a face NO NO NO NO NO GET THE FUCK OUT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

>>1267384 gooks like doing that shit, they love plastering their plastic gook face shit everywhere.

Heh, they kept casting frenzy as legal. Free excuse to murder anyone.

>>1267025 You can make accidentally angered NPCs calm down by holding block then interacting with them

Were the NPCs always this erratic and fast in the arena? They're actually running behind me sometimes and hitting me outside of my block range. Sometimes I have to whip the camera around mid swing to him them.

>>1267424 The modder's russian.

>>1258046 You're brainless.

>>1267766 is there a difference? i see a gookface i call it gook.

>>1258790 this. the only thing that could be argued to require dynamic scaling is quest related enemies. you want quests to be challenging, yet doable, so when you start the quest it should scale the enemies within that quest. yes, this can be cheesed by starting a bunch of quests, then leveling a lot, then actually doing the quests overleveled. but so what, if a player feels like he needs that kind of advantage let him have it. it's like setting the difficulty to Easy with more steps. not a real problem. in the game world there should be (non-quest) entities that far outlevel you and those that you already shit on at the start. there should be some stable hierarchy to the world's NPCs. you should be genuinely worried about going to some places earlier in the game, and you should feel really powerful in the late game. Oblivion and Skyrim's scaling completely rob you of any payoff to the RPG progression mechanics. even a Diablo / Titan Quest game lets you go back to early content with your late game character and stomp, right? why the fuck does Todd think his games don't need a feeling of genuine power increase? so much about them is set up to be a power fantasy, it feels totally out of place that the enemies always level up with the player.

>>1268397 I think the scaling of oblivion is a bit overrated. Monsters don't scale as strongly as people think, and I think most of the perception actually comes from the difficulty slider and the really weird way low level enemy health scaling works. Right out of the gate Oblivion, even without endurance as a major stat, the player is a fucking tank, with a minimum of 60 health if you make your character as weak as possible. the average NPC is dealing single digit damage, and rocking a meager 20-40 hp on the high end. the natural reaction is to crank the difficulty up, and (assuming the scaling is the same as Skyrim) fucking the natural level curve because now your taking 2x-3x damage and dealing 1/4x damage. once you get above level 5 you start encountering enemies with health more on par with the player. suddenly you hit a brick wall because the difficulty slider is a lazy damage modifier.

>>1252570 gremlin-looking ass

any sexy argonian mods yet?

>level up strength to 100 >notice it's at 85 in the menu >figure it got damaged from a daedra, whatever >take one potion of restore strength >up to 90 strength >take another potion >still at 90 consider myself miffed. I'll just make a spell when I play tomorrow and hope that fixes it. Or use the console >>1269136 I dunno, in my experience I usually felt like I got outpaced by enemies around level 15. I think the bigger issue is enemy scaling factored in with the way leveling worked in original oblivion, which could cause you to fuck yourself over if you didn't know how it worked.

Is there a decent difficulty mod for that sweet spot between adept and expert?

Okay, one Bonus DLC quest down, quest was garbage, armor looks good. I can always ask for a new set so I wonder if it scales. Useful to have on standby when I inevitably forget a quest steals all my stuff and I don't feel like reloading.

>>1270817 aside from that, Stutter fix did nothing futzed around with settings for a bit, then stopped being a moron and updated my drivers. Now I can throw everything on ultra and it seems to just work. So, yeah, don't forget to check those.

>>1270663 Tried a cure disease?

I am somehow beyond the concept of locks now, nothing can stop me, not even key-required locks

Using the difficulty slider mod, but melee damage is still really weak. What am I missing here?

>>1270817 There's a mod to make all rewards scale.

>>1270817 i don't think there's any quests that steals all your stuffs in the game.

>>1270897 grab the skeleton key and spam the auto-lock key, it won't break because it's a special key and you'll get levels fast.

by the way for newcomers : you can get free repair hammers if you search in random crates and barrels in the imperial city (there's a bunch in the market district. and Jensine is the easiest merchant to hagle with (there's an option for that if you didn't know) but she only has 600 gold, so that means she can trade objects up to 600 gold max and beyond that the gold value is lost. so i'd suggest you sell to Rohssan instead if you have high value objects because she can trade up to 1200 gold. and the only way to raise that cap is to lvl merchantile and invest money in their shops.

>>1270817 >he bought the dlc armors

>>1271059 and it's fucking pointless because you level crazy fast

>>1264571 But the spells are balanced such that you're meant to be spamming them just like a normal attack, they're not broken even when they cost a lot of mana (the single advantage that atronach confers you, extra total mana). In fact, a spell costing more mana is usually counter productive because of the scaling cost of mana related to magnitude (M^1.28 is not linear, but luckily not expontential), you'd always be spending your mana better by just casting multiple times a smaller spell instead of a single big one. The fun factors doesn't compensate the weakness it confers at all, which just sours the fun entirely. If you want a game that treats mana as an actual resource and rewards you for using it and regenerating it, try Outward. Or just play an alchemist poisoner in Oblivion, but enjoy wasting 5 hours running between hotspots to get poisons, and another 5 hours clicking stuff to actually make the poisons.

hey, i noticed the enemy corpses now appear on the local map, at least it does in the oblivion gates, and you can even see what type of enemy it is by the look of the corpse icon !

>>1272211 Your right, but at the same time, you can just put magicka potions and welkyend stones in the hotwheel and dump your entire magicka reserve into the most powerful spell you can cast. especially since you can raise this limit by casting things like fortify magicka, Don't get caught up in magicka efficiancy debates. It isn't gasoline.

>>1270862 Yeah, no luck. Nothing showing in my Active Effects tab either For now my stopgap solution was to just use "player.setav strength 110" in the console to offset the stat damage. I'll fix it properly later, I'm lazy

>>1273858 did you try praying at an altar (it restores everything) otherwise do you use an equipement that raises STR or carry weight and repair it if it's broken.

>>1273858 yeah i've checked and wisps as well as some dremora can you weapons that debuff you permanently until you pray at a chapel/altar to raise it back.

I don't know you and i don't care to know you i don't know you and i don't care to know you.

oh yeah, we gaming now

>>1271750 you don't get it, it doesn't check for if the object is locked or not when I interact with it there is no minigame

>>1274480 lol, nice. great sentence mixing.

>>1274580 she can put a hole in your pants (literally)

>>1268397 Hard agree. Enemy scaling is the single worst thing about Oblivion and the number one reason why I never went back to it despite countless hours on Skyrim and Morrowind. Fake difficulty aside it is completely immersion breaking to have bandits equipped with Daedric gear, when in Morrowind you had to scour the game world and/or defeat one of the most powerful (and main quest essential) NPCs in the game to acquire it. Skyrim's approach wasn't brilliant but they did improve it slightly where different areas would be assigned different zones where a range of equipment could appear. Still massively better than the godawful system in Oblivion though.

>>1274731 [doom]He said no onion in his Restore Fatigue Potion[doom]

>>1274989 KILL ME

>>1274916 Level scaling is ok as long as it doesn't apply to literally everything. Some spawns need to stay at low level and there need to be at least some spawns that are high level from the beginning. No level scaling what so ever would result in you overleveling most of the content, which would be rather dull, but the optimal solution is not to have everything be your level at all times.

>>1274989 [doom] >>1275034 this. the combat didn't age well and level scaling just turns it into whacking bandits a hundred times. i wanted them to mostly leave it alone but that's the one thing i wouldn't have been upset about them changing. It's what ruined fo76 too, they can't seem to dial it in

This missing tails thing kinda irks me I hope they patch that shit.

>>1275620 Has anyone actually confirmed that the NPC scaling hasn't changed? There has already been plenty of examples of the numbers on weapons and stats being shuffled around. I wouldn't be surprised if they fooled around with the calculations some.

>>1252930 The downside of gnu/linux is deploying mods. I got oldrim to work but could never get newrim to load right.

>>1275034 I think that's why I love New Vegas and Skyrim so much. Certain enemies are always terrifying-- cazadores and dragons in particular, though in Skyrim the type of dragon depends on if they're actually a worthy battle. Named ones are always hard from what I remember.

>>1275933 I'm doing basic ass get in the mage guild quest and random ass bandits are all geared in ebony. Nothing's changed.

>>1275933 I don't have numbers to back it up but anecdotally it feels exactly the same. Worse even now that we're not in 2007 and it's more noticeable

>>1276209 Im going to wait for numbers because honestly i looked at the og damage formulas and crunched the numbers and it didnt add up. Like most monsters dont actually scale. The spawning level change but a dire wolf is always a direwolf. The only ones that scale infinitely are top level like goblin bosses. Npc scaling is a bit different but because of hidden modifiers should drop off pretty hard at around level 5. Im not saying the bad scaling is a collective hallucination. They shouldnt have hyped up ebony as a mysterious super metal if it was going to be handed out like candy in the mid/late game. But the player anecdotes dont match my experiance and the numbers dont mesh to me.

Where do I buy the remake? I heard not to get it on steam but where then?

>>1276526 cs.rin.ru and i think dodi has a repack uploaded. one human to another, don't buy it, the VPN subscription it costs to torrent is more worth it and also cheaper. If you're gonna buy it, it's on gamepass and you'll get more than just the one game. Not shilling though, don't give them your money dude.

>>1276604 I don't have a VPN right now but I'm totally fine with pirating I just don't have an active VPN right now so thanks What about mods? I heard Nexus is gay and banned a body type mod but there were 2 other alternative mod sites I forgot the name of that are better.

>>1276648 They backpedaled and reuploaded it because people were spamming the site with reposts when people caught wind. Honestly man, I can have up to 5 devices on my VPN sub and I could just give you the key, it's mullvad so it's just a number u can log in with. I'll set up a forwarding email to send it if u want. For mods, nexus is decent apart from anything political. For that stuff go to degmods or basedmods. Not as plug and play as nexus though.

Does anyone know what could be causing this noise effect on the stairs in this video? I've tried turning DLSS on and off, setting AA to each option, and Lumen Hardware On/Off. It persists regardless.

>>1276740 Your videos don't have sound at all.

>>1276773 It's visual noise, not audio.

>>1276729 Nvm I got a friend to let me borrow their login for a minute. Seriously appreciate the offer though. Not going back to 4chan because the people here are just better. Again, really grateful for the info, not gonna pay for it Can I run the game on a 3060 ti laptop card?

>>1276783 There's a mod that helps with stutters, I'll try to find it. I'm on a 3080 and with the mod I haven't had the issues that people talk about. I can't speak on what your card will do but I'd think it'd be playable. Might have to play with settings a bit though, when you're outside in the main map even people with top of the line shit are struggling at times

>>1276740 Nevermind I fixed it by deleting Engine.ini.

>>1276783 https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/35 i think this is the one I'm running but I'm kinda sloshed and I can't remember the thumbnail. Good luck man, halfchan only exists as a filter. It's closer to how things used to be here

>>1276783 >>1276916 Thanks a ton bro, downloading from dodi rn. This chan is much better wish I had checked it out when it initially came up after the death of the original 8ch. My dl speed is atrocious so it might take a while but I'm excited to revisit good vidya and mod it up I hope there's a lot of good mods. Goodnight bro, bless you

>>1276995 take care man people will still call you a nigger here though too haha. have a good night man, glad I could stop todd from getting your 80 dollars

>>1277048 good I like saying nigger. It's much better with actual humans instead of kikejeet bots. Goodnight bro I'm gonna have a drink and hope it takes less than 4 days to download lol

>crashes related to the game being an old piece of shit are gone >replaced by random Unreal Engine crashes Oh yeah, we're fucking back

Surprised there hasn't been an update yet, but that's Bethesda for ya.

If you were actually a trans, why would you want to identify in game as living mockery mystery meat 1 or 2, wouldn't you want to play a character representing the sex you wish you were?

>>1277077 bottoms up man if your speeds are super slow switch to a server closer to you. and bind your client to the VPN if you're worried about getting a letter

>>1264739 It's an evolution of technology. This is more-so how they're suppose to look, a lot more like Morrowind where they all had pre-set head meshes. Oblivion was the first time they had face molding tech, Skyrim improved upon it by making the head mesh much more like Morrowind, and finally with technology as good as it is now it's was possible for Oblivion R to have the most detailed head meshes yet. Maybe in the next game we'll even have multiple head meshes to choose from, widening the range of their looks.

>>1277255 I'd suspect that people with diagnosable GID (like 0.02% of the population) probably don't care by and large, with the people who tend to make the most stink being "gender queer" types who went all in on the tranny fashion trend and now require constant validation for their fucked up decisions or else have to face the reality that they've done nothing but self-implode their life at every conceivable opportunity they had to turn it around, leaving themselves permanently scarred, sterilized, twisted mockeries of nature. It is the ultimate sunk-cost fallacy. Some of them find meaning in the bullshit "fight" for some civil rights victory, some of the seek validation from society, some of them seeking a new identity to escape some past trauma or to predate on others from a protected position of victimhood, and some of them soothe their despair by corrupting and converting others - but all of them are hanging by a thread above an existential void and looking for something, anything, to reassure them that they did actually make the right choice all along. Else there's nothing left for them but to tie that thread into a noose and hang themselves. They don't really want to be a woman or a man, and have no interest in finishing the transition if such a thing were even possible. They want to be "transgender" - always a grotesque twisted gender goblin - because that gives them some form of identity and purpose in a pill without the pain and effort of developing their own or the dread of being just another inconsequential and disposable face in the crowd of billions. It really says something when even the faggots who unleased the AIDS epidemic on the world are wanting to distance themselves from trannies, because it makes them look bad by association.

>>1277336 We need sleek, shimmering, supple argonian babes nice tail ends

So what's the verdict on this, worth playing? My first Beth game was Fallout 3, I never went back to play Oblivion, I assume I'll enjoy it as I enjoyed Skyrim and its older Bethesda right so it should be more RPG like right?

>>1277926 I'm not entirely sure right. The games you mentioned are very different right. So it could go either way right. Just pirate it right.

>>1277926 I will play it myself soon but the consensus I've seen is that it's literally the same game with unreal graphics, which is what people wanted because it preserves the jank of the original engine There's framerate issues apparently but besides that it's definitely worth it if you pirate it like I am lol

I hope I'm good to go on a laptop 3060ti, I can play Elden Ring at close to max with 60 frames so hopefully it's similar

>playing oblivion remaster >fucking with lighting settings because global lighting is ugly and i want a solution >computer randomly shut off mid-class customization when making a new save >confused >reboot immediately >internal temp is 163f / 73c ohhhh oh FUCK

My in-game calendar seems to have skipped ahead a little bit...

>>1252570 Oh yeah, all my fellow goypass users. There's a nexus mod that reenables upscaling.

>>1278173 uhhh that's not good lol I idle at around 40-43c

>>1278202 That was the first time it's ever done that, but my idle temp is usually 47c when I'm not running something. The fans are fine, but it probably doesn't like being flat against a solid surface.

What's the most accepted stutter-stopping plugin everyone is using?

>>1278219 I'm using a laptop that I haven't dusted in ages on a cooling pad, I should probably blow it out with compressed air before I play

>>1252570 Call me when they have enough Argonian sex mods

>>1278231 Yeah, probably. When I played the remaster it didn't give me a problem until today. I've never had that problem with another game, either.

so is there a mod with proper first person yet? I want to see my legs when i look down.

>>1278234 A bit worrying. might just be the dust, hopefully Now I'm worried too

>>1278233 Why would you even want to have sex with an Argonian from the Remaster? Morrowind or Skyrim's Argonians I can understand... maybe even Daggerfalls. But Oblivion Remaster? They look like unused extras from that old Dinosaurs TV show.

>>1278289 >implying you wouldn't the daughter

https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/157 https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/567?tab=posts Which one citizen?

>>1278368 neither, you level too fucking fast level 20 takes no time to get to and by and can already get the best non-unique weapon in the game >>1277336 the only real issue is the snouts being fucking massive, i saw a singular argonian NPC with a tiny one and she looked fantastic also fun fact: fire atronachs instantly die when submerged in water now

>>1278368 Is that Mr. Negro from Leave The World Behind, the international jewry movie about planes falling out of the sky in 2025?

Man I need to crack open my legion 5 pro and clean it the fuck out and maybe replace the thermal paste if guys computers are blowing up from the remaster

>>1278412 post 2020 hardware is just fucking embarrassing my components are between 10 and 15 years old and i've had no issues outside of two crashes in 35 hours of playing

>>1252570 I'm honestly still baffled by the fact that no one seems to care about the remaster completely ditching the "paintery" aesthetic original game had and went to full realism. I thought that would be a huge difference between the original and remaster that people will immediately notice constantly talk about. Whether positively or negatively.

>>1278504 Because the og aesthetic didn't age well, had this been a game like bioshock, their would have been outrage

>>1278423 I have no idea if I actually need to bother with it or not I haven't cleaned my shit with compressed air in years and it's still fine but I should probably give it a scan I need a proper PC build, cheap and powerful as possible, no AI chips

>>1278504 grifters who never touched or heard of oblivion immediately started screeching REEEEEEEEEE THIS IS DIFFERENT HOLY WOKEROOSKI TRANNIES RUINED ANOTHER CLASSIC (((that i totally played and didnt find out about through youtube shorts))) though OR is super fucking faithful to the original and addresses a ton of shortcomings it had

>>1278557 >addresses a ton of shortcomings it had No it doesn't, they put a little band-aid on leveling (that still doesn't address unique items being fucked over if you get them too early) and that's it

>>1278562 yeah nah shut the fuck up nigger you have no idea what you're talking about

>>1278562 >>1278563 I will judge how faithful it is and how good or bad it is Right off the bat hyper realistic graphics with original oblivion jank is weird and unfitting but also funny, so fitting as far as the painty aesthetic I'm sure that can be modded back in

>>1278575 so you haven't even played it why the fuck am i even wasting my time with you?

>>1278579 I'm not who you replied to nigger

>>1277926 if you could enjoy fo3 with all its jank you'll be able to enjoy this one. It sucks (good) >>1277967 faggot

>>1278563 It's just not the same without the ugly models. Also this lip sync tech shit is cringe yo.

>>1278562 Don't forget how they added passive health regen too. Every change they made was to make an already easy game even easier. Fuck sprinting too.

>>1277926 Fallout 3 is also going to be remastered, it was leak in the court documents.

>>1278562 they fixed some of the core engine bugs, like random crashes for no reason, ultra-lags near the grass near Anvil, CPU power is better allocated now (instead of forcing everything on a single core), enemies don't have super speed anymore to dodge your arrows/spells. and i'm forgetting lots of other things, so yeah i'm thinking the remaster did fix lots of things.

by the way, the skooma limit has been increased for max 9 to way beyond that, so it gives situations like this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9lMlTS1MK0

>>1278931 >fingolian_soldier_max_pervitin dot jjiff

>>1279091 exactly

>>1278931 based devs that love fun

Apparently a lot of casuals who never played another TES are going around screaming "SKYRIM WAS A DOWNGRADE???" lmao

>>1279397 I've only seen two of these in my travels, I'm unable to confirm how common it is.

>>1279514 >Skyrim is a downgrade No fucking shit, I hate casuals so fucking much, Morrowind magic system would blow their minds. Goddamn cattle.

>>1279514 A fucking decade plus of shitting on every TES that wasn't Skyrim (without playing them of course); "old", "outdated", "janky". Then they actually fucking play the games and see those who criticized Skyrim weren't being contrarian. A decade plus.

I'm still confused as to what are the EXACT level scaling changes from the original Oblivion to the Remastered. I've been playing and it's not exaclty the same but bandit and some NPC gear still scales. The mercenaries and their gear at Roxey's Inn still scale like the original like 1:1

>>1279514 So if they remade Morrowind but with Unreal Engine 5 tier assets and lighting, they would claim that it's the best TES game ever?

>>1279571 Devs would have to correct some critical flaws for roleplaying's sake and world representation, but yes normalfags would suck its dick.

>>1264739 >>1277336 >>1278399 Yeah they fucked up by making the snouts huge, both Argonians and Khajiits look like they got stung by a bee. If you try to reduce the snouts in character creator they look 1000 times better and not uncanny anymore. I think mods will vary from a complete overhaul of them or just a simple fixed snout reduction (plus removing the "beard" female cats have) like I said.

>>1279397 Yeah, there are a lot of normalfags finally agreeing that what stopped then from touching the game was the fact that it was old looking and that's it. (Note that the UI barely changed at all from back then, if at all. It's still the same shit, and in some aspects it's worse, so it's genuinely just the graphics that stopped people from playing the game). Honestly? Fuck normalfags. They're to blame for literally everything wrong with the industry. If shitty games never had a market, they would never have become the industry majority. Fucking oblivion is getting glazed when it's such a shitty game to boot. I fucking hate remasters and remakes, but they might genuinely be the only way we introduce normalfags to actual, decent game design. Fucking hell.

>>1279514 >contrarians don't play games they criticize in other news, niggers steal, pajeets rape anything that moves and kikes suck baby penises >>1278896 xivilai are also glass cannons now, they hit like a truck (warhammer variants) but go down in like 4 charged swings, in general anything looks "fleshy" dies super fast dremora are an absolute nightmare to kill, especially the lower caste ones because they can also carry shields >>1279757 >a lot of normalfags finally agreeing that what stopped then from touching the game was the fact that it was old looking and that's it the same normalfags are now doing a switcheroo and yelling WTF THIS IS FUCKING UNREALSLOP WHERE IS ALL THE SOVL I SUDDENLY HATE ADVANCED GRAFICKS???

Nice view https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/733 good mod for removing the cataract out of your eyes

I can't believe the game is just blatantly lizard shaming me. 2005 was a different time.

>>1279952 >poojeta trying to trashtalk a farm equipment peak irony, HOHOHO.

>>1279571 it would need to have a better combat system for mana regeneration and a way better melee system (removing the "miss" for example, because it makes no sense in a 3D RPG) and they would need to voice all the NPC's as well and remove redundant and unecessary texts as well as fix some quests that tell you to go to A even though the actual location is B.

>>1279952 wait a minute why isn't she affected by that detect life spell

>>1279571 >>1280005 and they'd also need to remake the dungeon interiors because they're really sad to look at and travel into. so Morrowind would be more like a remake than a remaster or it wouldn't sell. and obviously they'd have to fix max view distance and loadings outdoors.

>>1279571 Everyone is really underselling how much of a difference the remaster is. The cleaned up movement is really good. A key part of a good open world game is making basic movement around the world fun. The changes are simple, but very effective.

>>1280005 If they remove hit chance they'd probably end up replacing with it a % damage bonus like future games. I wish they'd sidestep the balance issues that'd cause and go for a system more like Gothic, where skill gives you better and more wieldy weapon animations, but that's probably too optimistic.

is there a console command to make enemies target me first instead of my follower it's really fucking annoying

>>1280230 Targeting is based on disposition which is determined by personality. Wreck your personality stat and enemies should target you.

>>1280029 Detect Life is bugged as fuck and looks like pure ass, it's barely visible.

That being said, elven armor actually looks pretty good now, it looked like one of those plastic costumes you buy at chinese shops for carnival in the OG oblivion

>>1280262 it's at 30 and the follower is an atronach

>>1278504 I've seen some youtube comments that criticize it, but that's about it. It has made me realize that most people actually like Unreal Engine graphics.

>just learned that potions with the same name, effect and magnitude get their weight from the FIRST TIME that potion was made >first flat restore HP potions i made were from daedra hearts >almost turned 50 mushrooms into 100 potions all weighing 2 each

>>1254439 >"Don't worry anon, you just need a mod and a hotfix to wield a shield without getting unrepentant eye cancer" Why the fuck do you even bother?

>>1280335 Drain personality 21 points on self should do the trick.

>>1280467 fair, i can offset everything by just making a custom charm 100 for 2 sec on touch spell

>>1279514 I've been seeing this a lot. It is genuinely fucking sad.

Lovely "">:(((( fucking stuck""

>>1280698 wisps are able to debuff the player character permanently unless you pray at a chapel, maybe he debuffed all your strength or something ?

>>1280728 you can use fortify stats to counter wisp attribute damage until you get to a chapel.

>>1252570 illiterate or busy call it

who here hate the DLC Order Helmet and shoulder pads?

>>1280804 The order ones look fine to me. Havent done the daedric ones yet. I wish the order quest had been fleshed out a bit differently. Give me paladins of order i can order around as expendable npcs. Setting up a knight outpost somewhere. Its not like slapping in a new minifaction is that complicated. Doesnt even hurt the lore since anybody can slap together a knightly order that dies out in a few years. Its a real shame, but probably nobody is going to flesh it out more because it feels like a thing that would have existed.

>>1280873 Definitely could have made you go to 2-3 more locations like after killing the Lich you have to go into the time wound and kill some Aeylids in the past that set the whole thing up in the first place trying to escape Pelinal's wrath. Would allow us to see Aeylid ruins not as ruins. Like the time wound reaches out side of the ruins so when you return it's brand new full of Aeylids that use Weyland Stones so they spam magic. Frankly a missed opportunity

>>1252570 >>1252930 >>1264739 >>1277336 >>1278399 >>1279614 >>1280781 Anyhow to prove what I was saying, I reduced their snouts and giga-jawlines along with making their skulls more reptile-like and this is the result, immediately better. They over-corrected and made both argonians and khajiit too snouty and heavy. But it can be fixed even further with mods.

>>1280781 God liggers are ugly in this game.

>>1281056 yeah that's miles better, what the fuck was bethesda thinking
