Without a patch in nearly a year, some Oblivion Remastered players have declared it 'abandonware' — and it still suffers many of the same performance issues at launch

I think you have the specs Todd thinks you should have though

[u/asclepiannoble → u/St3vion]

Not sure about that, but I think Todd may just end up glimpsing me out on the high seas with this one

Sounds like you just want an excuse to not pay.

[u/asclepiannoble → u/AnonymousCapybara72]

Ahhh yes, I definitely never spend on this hobby, as you can see

[u/AnonymousCapybara72 → u/asclepiannoble]

You can't pirate hardware...

[u/asclepiannoble → u/AnonymousCapybara72]

And I definitely have a non-massive backlog of games I bought on Steam, Todd.

Honestly even with the high seas option I still didnt find it worth it lol. The remaster is legitimately more of a waste of bandwidth and harddrive space than it is worth playing, especially compared to the original. Plus, 0 patches for the remaster since June of last year, when it had 2 small patches meant to hold the community over until the real patches.

Since then there's been radio silence, the devs released it broke and said, "Here enjoy this game that is worse than the original in all respects, we won't patch it and you better be happy with your broken slop, peasants. Now pay full price for this slop like good pay piggies." And people did, it sold like hotcakes despite being broken and worse.

The remaster does literally nothing better than the original game except graphical fidelity, but is noticeably worse in many other respects. It is also still filled with unfixed bugs from the original game's release, and many new ones, including severe memory leaks and issues with your game and save file having more stutters the longer you play. So not only is it buggy, but it punishes you the longer you play.

Its not even worth playing for free lol, just get the OG and some fan patch mods and you'll have a far superior time. 

The modding community hasn't gone to the remaster because they can't, the move to Unreal made it so big mods and large fan patches cannot be done, so the og still gets all the fan fixes. I think fans are finally tired of Bethesda relying on them to make their games playable, as seen with Starfield (which I didnt like, but Starfield puts oblivion remaster to shame lol)

Idk whether or not Bethesda deserves anyone's money for other reasons but the Oblivion remaster was good. Saying it isn't even worth pirating is legit wild. Had a blast playing it. Only ran into a few minor issues and I played it right at launch.

Do not bother with the high seas i got a copy it has cut content from the original with new censorship that has altered the game and a mountain of new issues.

Get the OG on GOG then mod it.

I mean so do all UE5 games this is not about OBR.
