....So does the remaster suck or not?
Also, why is it 125 gb? that seems retarded
Optimizing files requires talent, skill, and expertise. Those are all things that are anathema to modern game development, which ships off as much shit as possible to literally retarded Jeets in India and anything they can't ship off is usually staffed by trannies and females because they're required to keep up diversity quota numbers.

tl;dr: If it's not a default plugin for Unreal Engine 5 or on Stackexchange (or in 2025, an answer ChatGPT can shit out) don't expect these games to have it.
 
They changed how the enemies behave toward the player, in the remaster. They're so unnecessarily tunnel visioned that you're forced to cheese them in anything that isn't a 1 on 1. It's incredibly obvious when doing the arena, in the 3 on 1 fights. They'll ignore your summons, ignore the boar, clip around them if you push them into a corner, chase you faster than you can move if you attempt to reposition, and hit you with melee attacks mid-sprint with such precision that you'd be forgiven for thinking they can swing while sprinting at the same time.

Game looks both terrible and great, at the same time, but this isn't the Oblivion I grew up playing or revisited a handful of months ago for nostalgia's sake. Can't even hold block while casting spells any more.
So, summoning is basically worthless now? Crazy that they would make everything only target you when having enemy NPCs fight each other was always great for a laugh, or even a way to kite enemies if you were overwhelmed on harder difficulties.
 
I'm not seeing big enough leaps in visual quality to justify requirements getting as high as they are. Are they just incompetent or are they trying to prop up the GPU industry or some shit?
I think it's sort of like the graphical equivalent of overproduction in music. Now I know about as much about sound engineering as I do 3D graphics, so I can't get into the specifics, but when you hear a song that's been overproduced you can just tell. Compare something like The Sound of Silence by Simon and Garfunkel and The Sound of Silence by Disturbed. Asides from the obvious differences there's a very overly-engineered, artificial quality to the Disturbed version, and I think what's going on there is similar to what's going on with Oblivion Remastered.
Another example is the 2011 remaster of Nirvana's Nevermind. In an effort to make the songs sound more clear (I guess?), all of the quiet bits were blown up to be as loud as everything else, making it sound very tinny and low-fidelity.

Bro the UE5 engine "look" is so fucking bad, how can anyone working on the game go "yeah this is fine".
Every UE5 games looks the exact same, same bad global illumination, same bad dithered hair and transparency that looks like ass fuck, same shitty TAA that makes my eyes bleed, same shitty shadows that leave ghost trails, and the fucking god awful plastic faces every UE5 game suffers from.

I fucking HATE UE5
 
I am Starfield's biggest hater so I remember the sandwich model being ridiculed for its triangle count (70k).

I've never checked myself, but I think that's just a 4chan meme, not the real model.

Supposedly, this is the actual sandwich mesh used in Starfield.

Starfield Sandwich Real.webp
 
A) Letting "little" stuff go is exactly why gaming has gotten this bad, because it was never little and they never stop with the "small" stuff. If you haven't realized that progressives always start small and corrupt further from that point, then you frankly are not capable of pattern recognition or haven't paid any attention.
Feculant color-grading is neither a direct nor indirect cause of troonery. Progressive/nepotistic hiring practices, perhaps, but I'd say that troonery is downstream from hiring jeets, queers, and crystal hippie bitches to make your game.
B) Progressive rot is always an indication of much deeper and profound problems,
Yes. I know. That's my point. Often the classical conditioning pattern-recognition never delves deeper than the surface level, it's just "NO SEX? TIME TO CHIMP OUT ABOUT IT". That is why I am aggrieved.
Sorry for the late response also, got distracted there.

I can not believe how devoid of standards and self respect gamers are. A trashy, downgrade remaster of a 20 year old game is sold for full price and retards trip over each other not only to buy it, but to defend it from all criticisms to speak of. Frankly, gamers deserve the industry they have created
Oh 1000% they do. You know how many people I know personally who swore they would never buy Fallout 76 because it was a giant fuck you to Fallout fans who went out and bought the game? Same with Cyberpunk and countless other mediocre games. They will complain about games endlessly then hand their money over to the people making them while STILL complaining.
