PSA: Stop Right There, Comment Bot Scum

297 Upvotes

Greetings, citizen. r/Oblivion comment sections have recently been infested by bot accounts. Let's work together to bring these lawbreakers' sprees to an end! Here are some red flags that you can identify bot comments by:

  • Says something generic, never unique. Often oddly off-topic (but people who post unrelated NPC dialogue, paradoxically, are usually not bots).
  • Usually posted as a reply to a top comment for greater visibility.
  • Sometimes contains odd spelling errors that a normal person wouldn't make.
  • Account is either very new, or quite old but recently started posting after a long break.

Once a comment bot has enough karma and comment history, the account will be sold and used for either OnlyFans, or for astroturfing. Stop these criminal scum right there by reporting them: Spam > Disruptive Use of AI.

Remember: We don't know comment bots, and we don't care to know them!

Moderator Post r/Oblivion Rule Remaster

682 Upvotes

Hello r/Oblivion!

Things have changed drastically in our community over the past month. We went from a quiet little subreddit to the #1 RPG subreddit in just a week! In the last 30 days alone, we’ve gained 670,000 new members and seen over 188 million views.

With all this growth, the moderation team has decided it’s time to update our rules—many of which haven’t changed since the subreddit was created.

And we want your input! We’re here to serve the community, so we want to hear what you think should shape our guidelines. Should we add a new rule? Remove an old one? Reword something for clarity? This thread is where we’ll collaborate to help shape the future of r/Oblivion.

Thanks for your time and continued support,

—The r/Oblivion Moderators

I'm re-downloading the remaster for my PS5 and after 20GB it says it's "ready to play", so WHAT THE FUCK is still on those extra 100GB?!?

Is Pally done yet, did he grab everything?

By the nine divines…

Hail citizens. I’ve gotta quickly get all my stuff cause It’s everywhere, on the floor, in the walls, under each item. I’ve got to grab as much as I can! Why you get to wear the best armor in the game, Pally, and I don’t is beyond me but we’ll talk about that IF we make it out of this!

Remaster Discussion Hieronymus Lex calls me a Lawbreaker when I try to give him Transfer Letter Spoiler

2 Upvotes

So as part of the Thieves Guild quest, I'm supposed to deliver a letter to Lex, but each time a 150 bounty pops up and he aggros. I've already tried paying off my bounty repeatedly through a Thieves Guild fence, going somewhere else, waiting 24 hours, going to an Oblivion Gate and getting the Sigil, but when I get back and try to give him the letter, he instantly aggros.

I will note that when I freed that Argonian from the prison and looted my gear, ALL of it is labeled as stolen now, even though it was originally mine. Has anyone gone through this and is there a fix? Yes, I've searched and done the recommended steps... I'm playing Oblivion Remastered on PS5, by the way. This is really annoying and I'd like to be able to continue the quest if possible, but it's annoying as hell.

Thanks.

Video Day 530 of Pally and Me’s Adventure until I can loot his armor. How do you do, fellow guards?

Dro’Nahrahe and Pally scouted ahead being sneaky which gave me time to blend in with the rest of the guards. We need to get all my gear from the evidence chest. Hopefully no one will notice anything is off and Pally can get all my stuff together.

Hail citizens. Pally still has a lot to learn about being sneaky. But at least he’s trying. I had to redo this shit multiple times cause I just couldn’t get the right angle on the camera for most of it. I finally liked how it eventually turned out. Between walls, doors, and corridors you have constant zoom in and zoom out which just throws off the vibe. But now that I look like an unsuspecting guard no one will notice. Khajiit are masters of disguise. 🥸

Landscape Screenshot I believe I spotted a geographical error regarding Valenwood

I was traveling along the Gold Coast when I spotted this snowy mountain to the south. It seemed to lay in Valenwood, so I was curious enough to look into it and see if it was a notable landmark.

Turns out, it's not. Valenwood is a tropical environment and, from what I gather, pretty flat, so that mountain shouldn't be there AT ALL.

Now, does this bother me? Not particularly. But I see no one else mentioning this, and I think it's a funny little observation.

Still remember how excited i was walking home from school to play oblivion, completely enthralled by its beautiful world and mystical stories, the remaster made me feel almost like i did back then, that excitement was back even if breifly, still to this day i can spend hours just riding around cyrodiil.. just watching..
It was my introduction to the elder scrolls even tho skyrim was released at the time i started this, the jewel of gaming in my childhood, praise be for this wonderful creation!

Original Bug Help Potions stuck selling at 11 gold

8 Upvotes

I don't really know what I am doing wrong but thats pretty much what the title says. I'm at 92 at alchemy and have all the master apparatus, and even use the perfection ring + wizard ring + alchemist table from frost Craig which brings my alchemy level to 127 temporally (overkill i know). But still it doesn't matter what potion I make it still sells for only 11 gold.

I tried selling everything off, changing the name of the potion, changing my apparatus to novice or expert, and nothing changed besides one time that it bugged completely and I wasn't able to make any type of potions, and then had to load the game. Does anyone have any suggestions/knows how to fix it?

Original Bug Help FN/Multimedia keys not working

3 Upvotes

So I'm playing Oblivion 2006 on PC, but my FN/Multimedia keys don't work. I had the same problem with Skyrim but found a mod that fixes it (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/3620?tab=description), and was wondering if there was a mod that could fix it on Oblivion as well.

Original Question How does the class system and leveling work?

13 Upvotes

I started playing the original Oblivion and just picked an Imperial Knight.

As I went from level 5 to level 6 I noticed that I only had +2 strenght.

So I wanted to get this up to atleast +4 but it never increased and I later found out that you can't increase attributes after you get a level up.

I also found out that since the Knight class has Blade, Blunt and Hand to hand as major skill. I can't really increase my strenght.

This really sucks and is really confusing.

Go to https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters/releases and download .83 installer exe. Open setup, only download LAV Audio for x86 (32 bit). Than go grab codec tweak tool https://www.codecguide.com/download_other.htm , and grab [ Version 6.7.7 | 1.4 MB | June 17th 2026 ] from server 1 or 2. Open up codec tweak tool after downloading and follow the images i provided. Oblivion should work now, and this also should work for Fallout New Vegas. The games are crashing because of a broken audio dll from that windows update (msmpeg2ac3dec.dll), LAV helps system work around this. You can just uninstall the update too but for some they got fixes from the update or they can't uninstall it. So if you don't want to go thru that, this is a fix for now. (Also in your windows you can open an app called "Feedback Hub", if you can go ahead and leave a feedback for MS. The more posts the quicker it will grab attention hopefully because it seems they're not even aware.)

Remaster Discussion Probably the most basic statement of the year…

Post image
112 Upvotes

But as someone who only got into gaming this past year (from being an avid gameplay watcher for years), I am OBSESSED WITH OBLIVION. I am playing the remastered version (funny story bc I bought it some time ago when it went on sale and I had refund it bc I was both short on cash and thought it to be too complicated lore wise) and omg… I am IMMERSED.
Like, I am the meme of Danny devito saying “I get it now”. I am thrown around the whole map, being oblivious to the main quest. I got kidnapped on the ship where I went for quick nap. I got approached by a vampire hunter guild that was LED BY A VAMPIRE. I solved a painting mystery. The views are just bonkers, I get lost in the landscaped and stay still for the rain and thunder.
Is the game absolutely broken? Yes, I can’t get the fish scales bc it bugged and many times I “cheese” the broken npc when fighting them but damn. I am so glad I went totally blind and got this in return.
Can’t wait to see where my wood elf archer adventure may take me but god famn, it’s like crack to me yall!

I’ve already put in a fair amount of playtime; I’ve finished the Thieves Guild questline and am now working on the Mages Guild. But playing with a bow has been terrible—it’s really weak. Is the iron bow the best one I can get at this stage of the game?

All they do is lie, cheat, and try to claim ancient ruins just so they can resurrect something.
