Oblivion Remastered Messes Up A Good Joke
Briefly

The remastering of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion has overlooked a small yet poignant detail: the sign for Lelles' Quality Merchandise in Anvil no longer shows its humorous spelling error. Originally, the shop misspelled the word 'merchandise,' with a misplaced 'h' visibly correcting the mistake. This detail contributed to the persona of Norbert Lelles, the shop's owner, and was referenced by NPCs throughout the game. Although the remaster aims to preserve the original’s charm and jank, community feedback has indicated the need for further improvements, with no patches yet implemented post-release.
Remastering a game the size of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is no small task, so it's probably not surprising that some small details get lost in the process.
The sign for Lelles' Quality Merchandise in Anvil no longer sports its signature hasty spelling correction, losing a beloved joke from the original.
While the error is incredibly minor, it plays a significant role in establishing the character of store owner Norbert Lelles, as noted by NPCs.
Bethesda has engaged with the community for suggestions to improve Oblivion Remastered, although no post-release patches have been released yet.
