Bethesda remembers it just released an Elder Scrolls game, announces gameplay-focused Oblivion patch

Good news: someone at Bethesda tripped over a discarded game case in the hall and remembered that it released an Elder Scrolls game a month and a half ago. After a lengthy period of silence regarding , Bethesda has poked its head up to announce not one, but two upcoming patches to its redone version of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.

The patches are split into two areas. The first——covers "quests, major bugs and blockers, and quality of life fixes." You know, h25 com สล็อต​ the kind of minor gripes that have been rubbing you the wrong way ever since the game released, like Oblivion Remastered's cunningly hidden local map, the inability to switch off your HUD, and Savlian Matius deciding to spend the rest of his life in the courtyard of Castle Kvatch. It's set for a full release on June 11, but you can opt into the beta in the properties section of Oblivion Remastered in Steam.

The second patch is taking aim at the game's performance issues. I gotta be honest, my time with Oblivion Remastered has been pretty slick on the performance front, but there are definitely a lot of people out there who have been running into stutters and judders as they jaunt about Cyrodiil.

My guess—though Bethesda doesn't say this—is that these problems are proving a little harder for the devs to fix, since the studio doesn't stick a date on this patch, and instead promises to "share more details when we are able."

I have to be honest, the patch notes (which I'll put below in full) for the gameplay-focused update are a little underwhelming. Making games is hard and Oblivion Remastered—as a strange chimera of the original Gamebryo version and UE5—is no doubt a tough thing to work on, but the game has been out for almost two months at this point.

Players have spent that time identifying a whole bunch of areas where Bethesda and Virtuos could make quality-of-life improvements: inventory categories, more shortcut slots, a Goldilocks difficulty between Adept and Expert, deleting old spells, and plenty else besides.

For Bethesda to finally come out after a long radio-silence and address a fraction of people's complaints is a little disappointing. Hey, H25 สล็อต maybe the work is turning out to be real tough. That's fair enough, but if it's the case then the studio should probably communicate that.

But hey, hopefully this is just the first patch of many, and in the not-too-distant future we'll have a version of the game with all the fixes it clearly needs. Until then, well, just stay prepared to spend a lot of time exhaustively scrolling through your inventory.
