Can't play the game. Just like Nightengale before it, it seems like Intel Arc cards still have issues supporting DX12 on Linux.

Game won't launch because it complains DX12 is unsupported.

That's unfortunate. Hopefully a driver update comes around soon

Likewise, but I seem to be having major issues with Unreal Engine games in general. UE5 games tend to complain about lack of DX12, and UE4 games run very poorly.

Meanwhile I'm getting pretty good performance on Cyberpunk 2077 with nearly all the settings maxed out.

I am pretty disconnected from this videogame series, is Oblivion now the best looking game from Bethesda? (It should be as it is the most recent game I suppose) Would you recommend it over Skyrim graphical and gaming/story wise? Would a new Skyrim remastered game with these assets would be near the horizon? lol.

Decisions, decisions: get this for my ps5, or wait until my pc build is done. Prob the latter, just need a couple more things and I've waited this long, what's another couple weeks.

Honestly, taking into account how important modding is for the TES serie, I'd say it's better to aim PC for this one.

Sweet, never played it and have it in my backlog, so a remaster helps :)

Oblivion, when last met you introduced horse armor! Now you return to look upon the ruined game landscape that you have brought! I loved you like a brother, Oblivion! You were the Chosen One!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Funny enough the deluxe edition includes horse armor lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (9 children)

Looking at Steam it looks like they locked the expansions behind the deluxe edition?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Nope, the old DLC is available in the base game. The Deluxe edition adds some new armor (and yes, new horse armor) but isn’t necessary to access the old DLC.

I got it, and despite the performance issues everyone is talking about, the game is a wonderful trip down nostalgia lane. And unlike the original, they fixed a lot of the annoyances like the clunky UI.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I’m pretty curious about this. I tried Oblivion a few years ago having never played it before and it just felt too clunky for me to want to play much past the tutorial. Which is a shame because I’ve heard there’s a lot of cool stuff in the game I didn’t get to see.

If this makes things feel better to play and is a good all around remaster, maybe I’ll pick it up and give it another go.
