With the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda's iconic open-world role-playing game has attracted millions of players, old and new alike. As fans reunite to share their experiences, they're eager to offer tips to those who might have missed the original game's magic two decades ago.
It's important to note that Oblivion Remastered is a remaster, not a remake, as emphasized by Bethesda. This means the game retains many of its original design elements, including the controversial level scaling system. This system, which the game's original designer recently labeled a "mistake," remains in the remastered version. It adjusts the quality of loot and the strength of enemies based on your character's level at the time of encounter.
The level scaling system, particularly how it affects enemy difficulty, has reignited discussions among Oblivion veterans. They're now offering guidance to newcomers, focusing on strategies centered around Castle Kvatch.
