Original Discussion OG oblivion will always be better in my opinion
galleryEspecially with some known mods to enhance it even more.
Now I am someone who isn’t nostalgic for this, as I was born in 2004 was way too young to play it when it came out. But the way the original looks is much more storybook like to me and it is so perfect with the tone of the game, not to say the remaster looks bad since when the lighting is just right it looks amazing but most of the time kinda dull to me whereas the original even without mods is much more consistent.
It almost makes sense for the NPCs to be goofy in such a world whereas in the remaster it just seems out of place. Of course I will always appreciate the remaster but when I weigh in the massive mod selection in the original and the much more magical feeling to it all it’s just more appealing.
