With the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, millions of players are diving back into Bethesda's beloved open-world RPG. As fans reunite to share their experiences, they're also extending a helping hand to those who might have missed the game when it first launched two decades ago.
It's important to note that Oblivion Remastered is a remaster, not a remake. Bethesda has emphasized this, indicating that many of the original game's quirks remain intact. One such quirk, often cited as a frustration, is the game's level scaling system.
The original designer of Oblivion recently labeled the level scaling as a "mistake," yet it persists in the remastered version. This system means that the loot you acquire is directly linked to your character's level at the time of acquisition. Additionally, the enemies you encounter will spawn based on your current level.
This aspect of the game has prompted seasoned Oblivion players to offer new advice to newcomers, with much of it focusing on Castle Kvatch.
