Yeah it looks good without mods. I’ve never modded oblivion because I never felt a need to.



Nah, I got yo dad for that, son.


The openness of it. I can play as I want and go where I want. I’ve played Skyrim since its release and never have finished the main story. It’s not the main attraction. There’s so much lore carried through the games since the 90s , it’s endless.




It still holds up for a 20 year old game


Oblivion the original. Not the remaster





The game is a an amazing romHack, and well done. And if the flags bother you that much…well you’re an emotional child.


I think people just want someone to blame. It’s as stupid as blaming a scummy car salesman because you bought a car you can’t afford. You let yourself be talked into it. You let somebody sell you something. They didn’t take the money from your pocket. Maybe I just don’t understand because I didn’t grow in the privilege to have money to waste on digital shit in digital crates. And if my parents did (they didn’t) they would’ve never ever given me access to their banking. Thats foolish.

It’s like people who expect things to be censored because they’re too lazy to monitor their children or learn router and dns level blocking. Or for gods sake, don’t give you child a smart phone.


After they start and get addicted. You’re not ill when you start . Unless you have something else going on not related. You have full power not to start. Just play the game, kill the other guy, have fun with your team. Thats all you need to do in any game. Thats all I’ve ever done in a game like CS. I don’t even notice all the other stuff. I play the game.


I don’t really care. Idiots are easily parted with their money. Thats their fault. I’ve played CS for decades and never paid for a chest or whatever. Never had an interest.


I’ll just keep playing sims 2, the greatest sims. And all the old mod sites are still up and I can hoard thousands of clothes mods. There was a free installer that came with all the dlc that got taken down, but I still have it and it works.


Good thing I don’t pay attention to reviews. Half of them are people whining about things that aren’t a problem for me.


The only one I care about is steam. And the others I know will bend the knee because their policies have already been heading that way, thats why I’m not on them anymore


I just don’t see the appeal.


So I can’t play battlefield without TPM? I hate tech these days. My Ryzen board doesnt have it. Hence why I’m not on windows 11


I like indie games for walking sim and story heavy games only. Outside of that, 99% of indie games feel like some pixel art bs retro rip off roguelike nostalgia cash grab. I hate garbage ware like meatboy, etc.

If AAA studios weren’t so shitty, I feel like half of the indie studios wouldn’t have a chance.


Omg I owned untold legends when I bought my psp at release. I loved that game but my little brother destroyed my psp like a month after I bought it with my first job. I could never remember the game’s name


While I emulate switch too, I have to add that it’s getting harder and harder for me to pirate. So I’ve been stockpiling on switch roms. With certain isps and the current administration , freedom of internet traffic is under threat and isn’t as reliable as it was a year or two ago.

Comcast for example has been going hard. Straight up blocking sites ( have several work arounds but now they’re throttling my vpn traffic to 0 kbs/sec no matter what the vpn or what settings I use. And half the vpns I have tried throttle torrent traffic.

So that’s something to look for.



I’ll have to check. I’m running it on Linux via proton, so it might get complicated


Been playing it on PC. Performs better at 1440p that 1080p for reasons I don’t understand



Dude this is amazing. I’d love to do this myself



I have the i7 in it. Oblivion plays about as well as it did at release. lol like I’m not pushing it maxed and graphics mods are out


Fiddling with settings is ok, but I don’t have time to spend trying to get a game to work. Like i game on Linux and 90% of games just work for me. A few years ago they didn’t and I stuck to windows for gaming. I have no time to figure out why sound doesn’t work in Skyrim lol.

But it works now



I’m currently running it at 1600x900p large texture, far distance, anti aliasing at 4x., if I drop to 720p, I get a solid 60fps. I’m still tweaking it so I haven’t gotten just right yet.

But I’m surprised at this laptops performance since I got it off an eBay business auction and not for gaming. Lego Harry Potter ran well as well as life is strange and left 4 dead. ETS2 was everything at low at 1080p if I remember correctly



I don’t see how this is different from any other company. Xbox has forever done the same. I’m pretty sure Sony has too


I know this is going to sound like copium, but I love having to fiddle with settings to get original Oblivion running on my 2019 X1 Carbon. It gives me this nostalgia feeling of where I first ran oblivion on PC on my Dell E310 with a Pentium 4 single core and GeForce 6200LE I pencil modded. I’m having to run out at 720p and 4x AF, but it feels like Xbox 360 to me and I love

It’s like we’re returning to the early 00s lol. I used to rock a 450w psu in my 750ti build. :( granted I use a 650w today but my rx580 SND Ryzen 5 1500x is getting dated when it comes to new releases.

This is the first year I really don’t meeet requirements. Don’t know what to do with this market lol


Still the best engineered bang for your Buck/power draw card ever created in my eyes. Power draw of a lightbulb and I put it side by side with my freinds Xbox one at release and beat its performance.

I wish companies stayed on that track.


I love how my boy 750ti is in there. My first real gpu and my favorite because it was a time when NVIDIA was showing interest in getting the most bang out of lower power draw. That went out the window




I think it supports DirectX 12 at least I never considered it. Honestly I have to look that up.
