I suspect "body types" is some of the basic bitch ESG credit requirements.
If that’s the case you’ll be able to show us a policy document from an investor showing that this is a requirement.

The weird this about ESG stuff is it was never meant to be this retarded. It was meant to be don’t destroy the environment, don’t grope your female employees, don’t embezzle fund.

What’s happened is a bunch of women in HR went on a course, misheard half of it, don’t understand the rest, then set about ruining companies with what they thought it meant.

Then a bunch of angry old bearded incels who don’t understand business decided to grift off it.

This made the HR women double down.

The incels grifted harder.

Then we get a perfect circle which was ruining companies prior to Trump saying all this shit was dumb and the US government wasn’t backing it anymore.
 
I never saw these people seething to this extent over body type A/B or 1/2 in games like Elden Ring and Palworld.
For Elden Ring, I would actually assume that this is a choice consciously made by the developer, not for inclusion reasons, which makes it not as offensive in my opinion. Like theres tons of gay little fag games on steam that are clearly made by troons for troons, and those having this kind of stuff in it doesn't upset me, because the game is made for this specific type of niche persons. Something similar would go for Elden Ring, I say this because Demon Souls, all the way back in 2009, had gender represented as a slider, way before any of this DEI or inclusion shit really started to get off the ground.

However in this remake, obviously it is done for brownie points with a certain type of people, which is why I will be installing the mod.
 
Just started playing it and while everything about the game's presentation is ass, I will say some good things: At least the console gives you information about commands, and the devs did something Bethesda could never be bothered to do: Add an FOV slider. Running on a potato using a 1050TI on low settings. Haven't left the tutorial, but it never dips below 50 frames.
It will dip once you exit the sewers and enter the Market District. Also, check your resolution scale, because it's on 50%. Bumping it to 100 will tank you to below 30.
 
I'm enjoying some of the atmosphere enhancement, different leveling system, better combat, and new voices. Overall I'm happy but I expected more.

Here are some critiques I have of Oblivion Remastered so far:

This game made me glad I bought a newer PC this year. My 6 year old desktop can only run it on low settings, while my new laptop runs it great on high.

• A few bugs. I'm a high elf and sometimes my height randomly changes to being short. I've only had 2 crashes so far after playing 12 hours.

• Small tid-bit, but the words "male and female" being replaced by "type 1 and type 2" is annoying and I wish the industry would stop doing this.

• The developers should have included a body slider, especially for muscles and fat. I find it ridiculous there is no bulge or boob slider. The male characters in their underwear look like Ken doll nullos, in the original they didn't. Albeit you won't usually see that but still. Some characters look a little too weird, but most of them are okay. More hairstyles would have been nice.

• They should have *carefully* added a few extra NPCs, houses to populated areas, more farms, or legion occupied forts. I would love to have visited the Gold Coast Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary from ESO in Oblivion. I have yet to play the deluxe edition quests that are new.

• Daedric Shrines, Kynareth shrine, and Strange Door should have been given encampments to make it seem like people actually live or congregate there.

• Beds are way too tiny looking.

• Kvatch should be able to be rebuilt overtime.

• Sutch should have been included.

• Some characters should have kept their old voice actor due to exceptional delivery, but the new ones are acceptable replacements at least.

I'm hoping modders can figure out how to monkey code and possibly port whatever mods possible that can enhance the game a bit more.
 
It's equally petty as people frothing at the mouth over it. You see it once on character creation. Never again. There is no face sculptor unlike in Skyrim.
Oblivion is unique in that it has a quest that does change depending on your characters sex. The Siren's Deception, has you targeting an all female bandit gang and If you chose male you will get one of them approaching you to rob you whereas if you are female they will approach you asking if you want to join their gang instead. I just think it's stupid adding it at all, Trump won.
 
Haven't left the tutorial, but it never dips below 50 frames.
That did last long. Hitting 30s still in tutorial and the resolution scaling is driving me nuts. Everything turns into mud periodically.
Edit: Turned off anti aliasing and the frames go back to a consistent 50s for now.
 
I played Oblivion for the first time last year, and then tried to play Morrowind. Oblivion is an old game, but I can play it, finish it, just fine. Morrowind I spent some 10 hours going around the world and still having no clue where I need to go to continue (start?) my main quest.
As someone not involved in the franchise, Oblivion did not need a remake, it is perfectly accessible, with a sane(r) UI. Morrowind feels like a game from another century in comparison.

The soul stuff is just nostalgia and stuff. Also, if all I see in here is real, there is a bunch of slop in the new game.
It's very humble of you to admit that you need your tardwrangler to hold your hand to get from point A to B.

And like I said a few minutes ago, the Nord woman at the Flowing Bowl won't say "YOU ARE A BODY TYPE 1, AND I AM A BODY TYPE 2 WITH A CERTAIN DESIRE". Jesus Rollerblading CHRIST.
They refer to you as a MALE. Dar-Ma calls you HANDSOME if you're a male. NOTHING in the game is affected as a consequence of the character creation LABEL CHANGE. It's like that picture of a headstone wrapped in a tranny cloth with the real name still clearly visible underneath.

Writings been on the wall a LONG fucking time. I want to say it started around what, 2014???? slowly, but got worse and worse

But more importantly, why do you think games would be consistently JUST FINE for a fucking decade or so, and then SUDDENLY develop a very specific flavor of retardation?

Do you think the retarded shit around starfield, dustborn, veilguard, concord, and games SUDDENLY using not even "gender" but "body-type", just happened randomly because a few TDS HR ladies???

Thats a LOT harder for me to believe than some special interests trying to coerce media to be made extremely gay via the threat of funding being pulled. Big game studios know what the fuck is up, and they do shit for money. Thinking otherwise is ridiculous, and I'm tired of the assumption that people are retarded is being a routine defense of subversive behavior.

Then why does it need to be changed in the first place? The answer of just ignore it, it's so small is exactly the same reason why it didn't need to be changed in the first place. I just pointed out that oblivion used your character's sex as an RPG element that's changes how the game plays. If its not a big deal as you say then why change it at all in the first place.

There is the whole "origins" thing. Where stat changes that were originally tied to sex are now reskinned as backgrounds.
The best part about body type 1/2 being included in a video game is when retards start going into conniptions because someone didn't like it and decided to mod it out. That being said, it's embarrassing to shit and piss yourself in return. Laugh and the world laughs with you. Weep, and I'm gonna call you a faggot.

If it's such a small meaningless detail why are you making such a big fucking deal out of it? Two can play that game. :smug:
After giving it some thought, I'm glad you can't customize the body much. No vitiligo, no fucking surgery scars.

Huh, okay, I didn't even realize that, I automatically chose the male one and thought it was just roleplaying flavor and changed nothing, because my starting stats were identical to those in the original game. 🤔 The text said nothing about sex, either.

Not really as it does have an impact on the game as both sexes have different attribute distribution, women would start with higher personality or willpower and males would start with higher strength or endurance depending on what race you pick. If I was responsible for remastering Oblivion I wouldn't change it in the first place but I wasn't and it was changed. Why?

This is a bunch of retards in corporate yes and-ing themselves into utter retardation. Nature is starting to heal though. I find it hard to believe it was an actual plan and it's just lemmings following a retard off a cliff because no one was brave enough to say "no."

On a side, I bloody love your avatar and it makes me smile everytime I see it. I read all of your posts in the voice of the kid shouting "FAGGOT", so I love reading them as they give a a good giggle whatever the subject.
