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

[–] Tattorack@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

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 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.

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!

[–] Montagge@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 week ago

Funny enough the deluxe edition includes horse armor lol

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

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.

As much as I like Skyrim, I don’t think there’s a general consensus that the earlier games were better written.

Personally, until I played Phantom Liberty, the Shivering Isles was the best expansion I had ever played for any game. I’ll leave it to you to discover, if you get the game, but allow me to say it is delightful and different and a ton of fun.

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.

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

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’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.

All I get from these links is "Sign in to confirm your age"

lolno

Right, I see that, and I also see the piped.video link. I don't think I understand the point you are trying to make? Can you clarify?

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Ask your parents to turn off parental controls? Idk.

[–] piefood@feddit.online 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

My point is that, if you are going to send me advertisements, at least make them easy for me to see. WTF would I jump through hoops to see an ad?

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee -1 points 1 week ago

What are you talking about? Use an adblocker, dummy. Lol
