Oblivion Fans Demand Remastered Patch

Eager Oblivion Remastered players continue waiting for crucial updates a month post-launch. Discover what improvements fans urgently request and why console users face greater challenges.

Oblivion Remastered Still Awaits Essential Fixes

Community Awaits Developer Response

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered has remained unpatched for over a month, leaving players frustrated with Bethesda's silence. On Reddit, fans have compiled extensive lists of desired fixes and improvements while expressing concerns about the current state.

While Bethesda released an initial hotfix three days post-launch, this update ironically introduced new problems by removing upscaling options. Though a subsequent patch addressed this, players report the solution requires inconvenient workarounds to enable proper scaling.

Beyond these issues, players desperately await solutions for persistent bugs. The notorious Kvatch soft-lock remains unaddressed, preventing quest progression without community-developed workarounds. Despite the lack of communication, fans retain hope that Bethesda will soon deliver meaningful updates containing improvements like inventory organization tools and better controller shortcuts.

Console Players Face Additional Challenges

While all platforms need attention, console users report especially severe performance degradation. PlayStation and Xbox versions appear to suffer from memory management problems causing escalating glitches and frame rate drops during extended play sessions.

Bethesda recently established an Oblivion suggestions channel on their official Discord, encouraging players to submit feedback. However, the team has yet to comment on when fixes might arrive for these pressing technical concerns.

Historic Paralysis Spell Goes Viral

In a bizarre discovery, one player documented being paralyzed for 66 in-game years (2,097,762,304 seconds). Reddit user Vaverka humorously noted this exceeds Emperor Uriel Septim's reign duration from Elder Scrolls lore.

While players clamor to reproduce this effect, Vaverka hasn't shared methods yet. The discovery underscores how players continue uncovering both intentional mechanics and unintended bugs in this remastered classic.

As the community celebrates the game's legacy while enduring its technical flaws, players hope Bethesda will release meaningful fixes. With any luck, solutions will arrive before Vaverka's character recovers mobility in the 21st century.

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is currently available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (via Xbox Game Pass), and PC. For the latest updates, check our ongoing coverage below!
