Eurogamer writes: "History repeats itself with this week's brand-new remaster - and it's perhaps one of the worst-running games I've ever tested for Digital Foundry."

Thankfully playing on pro isn't quite as bad tbh. Curious to see how it compares.

1nsomniac371d ago

They’re releasing this on the Switch 2… I genuinely wonder how that’s going to turn out?..

--Onilink--370d ago

Well, on PC it can significantly scale down (to the some pretty extreme levels that look quite bad tbh haha), so the scalability is probably there, now the just need to get the stuttering issues fixed before then

mkis007370d ago

the stuttering is cpu dependent though...how is switch 2 going to cope?

--Onilink--370d ago

I wouldn’t really says its been confirmed that the stuttering is “CPU dependent”, as most stutters, the lower the CPU the worse it will be, but that doesn’t mean that the stutters are happening because the game is CPU bound at those points.

Not really much to be done until the game gets patched more to see what we might be able to expect from a Switch 2 port

New airline warning, next year: If passengers have got Oblivion Remastered installed on their Switch 2s, please refrain from playing during the flight's tenure. There have been reports of Switch 2 exploding whilst playing that game.

isarai371d ago

I was enjoying it, but im gonna shelf it while i catch up on my backlog and see what gets patched in the meantime. Hopefully better optimized and maybe a classic color filter by then 🤞

As long as that archaic engine is still in play, this issue won't be resolved for Bethesda's games

Best Remaster of 2025

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "A lot of video game enthusiasts complain about remasters, but I think they're missing the forest for the trees. The video game industry sees thousands upon thousands of games released each and every year; who cares if a handful are remasters of old games? If anything, they're a net positive. They shine a spotlight on underplayed games of yesteryear or bring old classics to the attention of a brand new generation. That's certainly the case with this year's shortlist, which includes a graphical overhaul of the legendary action-RPG The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion; an expanded remaster of fan-favorite Final Fantasy Tactics; a return visit to 1930s Tokyo in Raidou Remastered; and a second chance at stardom for one of the very finest WiiU games, Xenoblade Chronicles X."

If they put the full game on disc, or at least most of it I'd have gotten it, I'm tired of their bullshit practices.

Skipped Indiana and Doom the Dark Ages day one for the same reason.

QuantumMechanic202d ago (Edited 202d ago )

Similarly, I'm not buying any physical release that doesn't have a playable build on the medium.

darthv72202d ago

amazon just dropped off my PS5 copy.

SimpleSlave201d ago

Nice! Enjoy your new coaster. 👍

andy85201d ago

Long as we can still sell it afterwards ill take it on physicals as long as they exist

isarai201d ago

Was gonna say i hope it has all the patches in there but i don't even think they released a single update since release, it's still a bit if a mess 🫤

S2Killinit201d ago

I HOPE THE ADMINS SEE THIS AS I DONT KNOW HOW ELSE TO REACH OUT. IM NO LONGER ABLE TO CHECK MY MESSAGES. WHEN I CLICK ON THE LITTLE RED CIRCLE IT JUST KEEPS SPINNING INDEFINITELY. IVE NOTICED THAT RECENTLY THERE ARE LESS COMMENTS IN THE COMMENT SECTION AND I SUSPECT IT IS DUE TO PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE. CAN SOMEONE INVESTIGATE?

neutralgamer1992201d ago

Same been going on for a while now

S2Killinit201d ago

If it continues people will leave the site. I hope they are working on fixing it.

-Foxtrot201d ago

Really surprised they haven’t addressed it on a blog post or something about what’s going on.

It would take like 5 minutes

gold_drake201d ago (Edited 201d ago )

chris has addressed it in a response to someone a week ago or so.

its due to some people having alot of comments or posts on their profile or its due to older accounts and its somehow messing up the thing for those people.

its been an issue for me for a while now too.

but there was no official statement or something.

Christopher201d ago

1. https://n4g.com/tickets/ is in the footer for contact/feedback at any time.
2. It's a known issue that we are aware of and have reported.
3. This affects older accounts with a lot of comments the most.
4. Thank you.

RaidenBlack201d ago

Also submission breaks ... the submission, lol

MetroidFREAK21201d ago

As a Game Key Disc... not a proper physical, so I don't care
