Are you sure it wasn't the Romans in 27BC who were to blame?

I usually went Arena first in the OG oblivion, leveled up my character as much as possible (as perfect as possible) and then started doing quests. It was a nice controlled environment to level combat skills in. I was high level but never encountered any major problems at that point. I mean sure.. if i only focused on blade (and maxed it to 100) and suddenly started using bow and arrow (which is at 15 or 20) then i'd have a bad time but thats how Morrowind did it too. Arguably even worse in Morrowind lol, god i hated that you could miss swings (but at the time i guess a lot of RPG's worked that way). But if i went into the world immediately and just started doing quests i was screwed since its almost impossible to level perfectly in an uncontrolled environment.

What i really like about the remaster is that i can just start doing quests immediately without having to worry about ruining my character. I feel I have much more control of how I want to build my character now, in the original i felt i had to play by a playbook for leveling and when i was high lvl enough i could finally start enjoying the game.

I have a VR headset. Going from 16GB to 64GB was a huge difference in most games

This is why rock paper shotguns sucks ass and I never take their articles seriously.

Bethesda DID fix the leveling system in the remasters. The problem was not the level scaling, it was the fact you had to train every single major skill perfectly or else you would miss out on points and become underpowered compared to the enemies which have leveled with you. So if you leveled wrongly you would have anywhere between 5? To 10 points ti spend and if you did correctly you had more... the remaster fixes this by always giving you the max amounts of points to spend each level you gain.

I can spend an entire paragraph explaining why but this article Probably does it better

Yup, that's why i do most stuff myself. Paint my own house, repair my own plumbing, repair electrical appliances.

Only if I need to have something done completely from scratch I will hire a contractor. And even then most of them are like, yeah maybe next year we'll have a spot.

Is just treat any US and UK news outlet as the Onion these days.

Its pretty idiotic too. What's the point in having a karma system if you're just going to ban anyone who you disagree with.

A dealership (or that's how it works here) is obligated to sell x amount of cars (usually same brand or at least same group). They will just be sent the cars whether they sell them or not. So in a worst case scenario the franchise ends up with shitty cars no one wants and has to dump them on the market for shit prices.

The result is often that cost of maintaining a vehicle at a dealership is through the roof because they don't have a healthy margin on new cars (or even lose money on them).

They also have very idiotic requirements at times to even become a dealer. Although supposedly they have loosened requirements and rules since no one wanted to be a dealership anymore here.

As far as remasters go I think it's pretty good.

Don't expect a 2025 game in terms of mechanics and level design. For it's time Oblivion was a very good game. This is a polished version of the original with updated graphics and somewhat modernised combat and movement. They ironed out a lot of clunky mechanics and bugs too.

As far as remasters go the GTA ones were absolute dogwater just like warcraft 3 remastered. This one is very good and imo comparable with the command and conquer remasters.

I dont think they could have done much more without making the game completely different.

Yeah, even here in Europe most places that sell cars gave up their dealerships.

It's a shitty business model that makes no sense for the owner.

And yet people think Linux (mint) is so hard to use and absolutely no replacement for windows.

Linux: go to app store, click install. Done

Windows: go to app store, click install done.

Literally the same process, only Linux doesn't randomly update your apps and make them crash. My windows installation at work literally had 3 outlook variants at some point (just like you mentioned) and none of them worked.

I literally never was forced to use the terminal in Linux (well I did but not because I had to) and in windows I have to do shitty things in the register to get back functions (like that terrible decision to hide the "refresh" in the context menu).

I genuinely think MS has gone down the enshittification route and I'm not just preaching to the choir. I have every day (sadly have to use it at work) annoyances with windows and Linux just works..

But how else are they going to convince simple minded people that can't do any critical thinking?
