2006 is retro right? Inspired by the hype surrounding Oblivion remastered, I decided to give it a try, only to find out that my aging GPU (1080 ti) was only able to muster about 40fps in the early game at 1440p.
Disappointed with this, I decided to install the original GOTY edition that I had on GOG, and I was hooked. Those who know the game know that the leveling system is completely broken and I only discovered this by how weak my character was getting after 40 hours of play
I researched how to counteract this (efficient leveling, they call it) and restarted a couple times to try and fix it myself with no luck. It’s just not fun having to micromanage everything you do to try and not become underpowered.
So, I installed a mod to fix it that allowed me to properly choose my skill ups and had a blast. Excellent game, super immersive, and the movement mechanics are just hilarious. I lost it when the game told me that my acrobatics were now good enough to be able to jump on water.
Love this game.. really tempted to go back to Morrowind now.
