"As seems befitting of its origins as a Bethesda-developed game, Oblivion Remastered is plagued by bugs and crashes on PC, especially following its 1.2 update which has ticked off enough players to see its Recent Reviews status on Steam sink to the dreaded pale orange "Mixed" designation. Recent reviews cite quizzical issues with performance across the board, crashes, unfair difficulty scaling, and frustration with Unreal Engine 5, a sentiment only becoming more and more common."
""I stopped counting the crashes," reads one review taking aim at crashes encountered whenever trying to sleep or skip time in the game. "I really want to recommend this game," starts another, "but I can't due to technical issues and performance." The same review cites the "few and far in between" patches the game has received, and the recent 1.2 update certainly hasn't helped."
Oblivion Remastered launched with fan excitement but now exhibits numerous technical problems on PC. The 1.2 update introduced or exacerbated crashes, inconsistent framerate, and stuttering tied to Unreal Engine 5. Steam recent reviews have shifted to 'Mixed' as players report crashes when sleeping, GPU crash dump errors, and performance instability even with mods. Longstanding bugs from the 2006 original persist in the remaster. Players also complain about unfair difficulty scaling and infrequent patches. The combination of modern engine issues and legacy bugs has created widespread frustration among the player base.
