It's been over a month since Oblivion Remastered launched, yet players continue waiting for crucial updates. Fans are voicing their wishlist for future patches while console players face particularly urgent performance issues.
Oblivion Remastered Still Lacks Critical Updates
Community Voices Growing Frustration

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered launched over four weeks ago, yet Bethesda remains silent about upcoming fixes. The developer's radio silence has sparked frustration across Reddit, where players are compiling lists of needed improvements.
While Bethesda did release a quick hotfix shortly after launch, this temporary solution created new problems by unexpectedly removing upscaling options. Though later addressed, the fix required awkward workarounds that many found frustrating.

The community has identified numerous lingering issues demanding attention. The infamous Kvatch soft-lock bug continues plaguing players, temporarily fixed only through unofficial workarounds. Despite the growing list of problems, many players remain hopeful Bethesda will break its month-long silence with a significant patch addressing major concerns like inventory management and controller support.
Console Players Face Greater Challenges

While all platforms need updates, console users experience particularly severe performance degradation. Reports confirm PlayStation and Xbox versions develop worsening memory management issues during extended play sessions, causing increasing stutters and glitches in certain world areas.
In a potential olive branch to frustrated fans, Bethesda recently created a dedicated suggestions channel on their Discord server, actively soliciting player feedback for future improvements.
Ultra-Long Curse Becomes Unintended Feature

One player discovered an amusing side effect of Oblivion's magic system - a self-inflicted paralysis lasting an astounding 66 in-game years (over 2 billion seconds). Shared by Reddit user Vaverka, this extreme condition humorously outlasted Emperor Uriel Septim's reign from the game's lore.

As players continue uncovering both intentional mechanics and unintended quirkes, the community hopes Bethesda will address fundamental issues before 66 years pass in-game. With the original title celebrating its 20th anniversary, fans hope the remaster will receive the polish it deserves sooner rather than later.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is currently available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S (including Xbox Game Pass), and PC. For the latest updates on anticipated fixes and improvements, stay tuned to our coverage.
