The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion® Game of the Year Edition Reviews

it can be fustrating with some of the old game jank but once u get paced it its an amazing game id recomend to anyone if its on sale

Runs absolutely horrible on PC. Graphics are fine. Unresolved sound popping issues which can only be circumvented by running a silent MP3 file in a media player on loop. No controller integration. Issues with hotkey mapping where the hotkey window will become stuck on the GUI/HUD if a controller is activated or deactivated. Just move on from this legend of a game. I was really looking forward to some nostalgia and when I crossed the threshold the whole house was in disarray. Just don't pick this up at all. Refunding.

5/10 - Mediocre. Despite its story, poor optimization, lackluster combat, and an empty world make it hard to enjoy. — I'll be honest—I really tried to like this game. I played it both modded and unmodded, but no matter what, it just couldn't hold my interest. While I don’t doubt the story is captivating, too many elements broke my immersion. The engine is completely unoptimized, leading to excessive pop-in, low-quality textures, and poor draw distances. Ironically, I think Morrowind looks better in many ways. The combat feels clunky and unresponsive, and navigating the menus constantly disrupts the flow of gameplay. The world itself feels lifeless, with little to encounter besides the occasional wolf or bandit. Maybe I'm ranting, but I just can't get into it. At this point, I’m setting it aside and waiting for either the rumored remake or Skyblivion, both of which seem far more promising.

This game crashes so much it's virtually unplayable. How the hell is this happening? And no, my laptop is a gaming one so i KNOW the hardware is not the issue. I have to save every two minutes because I know it's going to crash. Has anyone found anything to help with this?

my fave out of all the elder scrolls games and my gateway to the franchise. i've been playing it for years and it's still as charming. it has its flaws but they can turn out pretty funny.

Still an excellent game. beautiful world to walk in. You can own things like castles and decorate them. the little details and storylines are great.

Im just here reading comments, hoping you young guys got the inside scoop on the remake. i'm 38 years old and it kinda feels like this game and ES6 may be the last games i enjoy. Not sure yet if that's from me aging or the quality of games with good story telling has gone down the crapper. Prolly both.. Sure hope they put this out soon!

My favorite in the franchise. It simply is one of the best RPGs of its time. Even to this day it's still a wonderful game to enjoy with hundreds of hours of questing and exploration; not including the DLCs.

Best game ever. Never get tired of playing. Character choices and creation are fun.

[h1] Oblivion Unreal Engine 5 remake is coming! [/h1] This game aged like a fine wine! 18 years later and I still find it beautiful. It's like looking at an old painting! Gameplay is still fun af, great story with pretty enjoyable side quests. Combat is janky but that's part of the retro charm. Sure the leveling system sucks in this game, possibly the worst thing I'd ever seen in an RPG, but it's nothing a mod can't fix lol This game is definitely one of the GOAT. Super excited for the remake!
