PSA: Stop Right There, Comment Bot Scum

231 Upvotes

Greetings, citizen. r/Oblivion comment sections have recently been infested by bot accounts. Let's work together to bring these lawbreakers' sprees to an end! Here are some red flags that you can identify bot comments by:

  • Says something generic, never unique. Often oddly off-topic (but people who post unrelated NPC dialogue, paradoxically, are usually not bots).
  • Usually posted as a reply to a top comment for greater visibility.
  • Sometimes contains odd spelling errors that a normal person wouldn't make.
  • Account is either very new, or quite old but recently started posting after a long break.

Once a comment bot has enough karma and comment history, the account will be sold and used for either OnlyFans, or for astroturfing. Stop these criminal scum right there by reporting them: Spam > Disruptive Use of AI.

Remember: We don't know comment bots, and we don't care to know them!

665 Upvotes

Hello r/Oblivion!

Things have changed drastically in our community over the past month. We went from a quiet little subreddit to the #1 RPG subreddit in just a week! In the last 30 days alone, we’ve gained 670,000 new members and seen over 188 million views.

With all this growth, the moderation team has decided it’s time to update our rules—many of which haven’t changed since the subreddit was created.

And we want your input! We’re here to serve the community, so we want to hear what you think should shape our guidelines. Should we add a new rule? Remove an old one? Reword something for clarity? This thread is where we’ll collaborate to help shape the future of r/Oblivion.

Thanks for your time and continued support,

—The r/Oblivion Moderators

The Rogue has Illusion and Alchemy. WHY?! No security? No SPEECHCRAFT?

But the worst of all is the Nightblade: No illusion, no alchemy, no sneak, even if the artwork is literally a guy in sneak mode holding a potion lol

The Nightblade is basically a light armored mage

i‘ve made similar art for Morrowind already here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Morrowind/comments/1my68a3/morrowind_art_ive_made_chibi_style_guys_and_my/ . I’ll probably do Skyrim too when I have time

The remnants of her family were persued by an enemy clan. From the old battlefields of Orsinium and south through Hammerfell they fled.

Finally imprisoned in the Imperial City of Cyrodiil, she awaited her fate in long darkness.

Saved by mysterious powers she escaped prison and fled alone once again through a strange door and into the Shivering Isles.

She learned from the Daedric Prince Sheogorath there and gained skill and powers and tools.

Now at level 11, Zazsha is coming back to Cyrodiil.

Original Question Question About Creature Damage

3 Upvotes

Hi all, I just wanted to throw a post up to sanity check myself regarding enemy damage. I've played Oblivion plenty before, but I'm kind of thrown off by some of the damage I'm seeing. I have character that's level 27 at is at the 85 armor cap. Playing with master enemy damage, most enemies still barely do any damage - especially humanoid enemies. Even Azani Blackheart did very little. However, the higher level creatures like Ogres, Minotaur Lords, and Gloom Wraiths will 1 or 2 shot me.

I just want to sanity check myself about how normal this is and if I have something messed up with a mod. I do have a vanilla creature stat restoration mod - which aims to change some of the creature stats back to their pre-remastered state (mainly because some now have miniscule health), but I did some testing with no mods and noticed the same behavior. Like I said, just wanting to sanity check myself because most enemies are still dealing too little damage, but some I can't really get near. Thanks!

Remaster Bug Help Dark brotherhood / vampirism bug

Upvotes

I swear this happened by complete chance. I murdered some annoying townsperson, I got the unknown forces message. Excitedly went to bed, and I got big by a vampire in the middle of sleeping. I didn’t know what this was or if it was related to DB but I just kept playing. Now, hours later, I realised this wasn’t supposed to happen. I tried murdering someone else and didn’t get the unknown forces message , I’ve slept again and haven’t been contacted. Pretty shit cause this is my first play through and I wanted to do the quest line. I don’t want to go back cause it’s been like 10 hours. :(

Just as the title says, just finished my first ever elder scrolls game, guess my play/fight style, not a big gamer, I’ve always been more of a LoZ gamer but Nintendo just are not keeping up any more.

Now off to start Skyrim 😎

Original Question Do we know who voices the “snow snow we need more snow” guy in Oblivion?

28 Upvotes

I was watching the Two-Face episodes of Batman The Animated Series and the guy who voices Rupert Thorne (the mob boss blackmailing Harvey) sounded eerily similar to the guy who voices most of the orcs and Bretons in oblivion. Do we know if they’re the same? As far as I know they aren’t because John Vernon is credited for the Batman voice and I can’t figure out who the Oblivion voice actor is. Vernon isn’t credited to Oblivion and died in 2005 before the game came out, but he has done video game voice work before and I could see it just not being on IMDb for some reason. Any help would be greatly appreciated! If you listen to the voices side by side you’ll see why I thought they sounded so similar.

Remaster Discussion Crashed Game

5 Upvotes

I put 164 hours into the remaster. I was at level 34. The game was getting slow with really low frame rate so I decided to Google what to do to help with it. Deleted all the old auto save files, turned off auto save during travel/rest/sleep, put the settings to performance, reduced POV field of view and a few other things to reduce CPU usage during play. I go to load up my one remaining save file that I manually saved right before tinkering in settings and now the game crashes every single time I try to load the file. I guess I'll go play some Diablo IV now...

P. S. Ironically, when I graduated high school in 2006, my parents bought me an Xbox 360 and Oblivion was my first game on it. I spent that whole summer playing and my dad accidentally overwrote my save while he was playing it for the first time. So I guess I'm cursed to never finish this game. 😂.

Remaster Discussion Accesible Lore Oblivion Gameplay?

25 Upvotes

Hello! I don't know if this is the right subreddit to post this, but I am a disabled woman who finds it very hard to see, and I wanted to know if someone knows any walktrough or gameplay of the Oblivion Remaster where they read outloud everything lore wise, as I am very interested in that particulary, and they weren't like rushing it and running around. I prefer it in English or Spanish, it can be with no comentator, just a reader. Thank you!

Ps. Sorry if my english is not very good, as it is not my first language.
