Can't play the game. Just like Nightengale before it, it seems like Intel Arc cards still have issues supporting DX12 on Linux.
Game won't launch because it complains DX12 is unsupported.
That's unfortunate. Hopefully a driver update comes around soon
Likewise, but I seem to be having major issues with Unreal Engine games in general. UE5 games tend to complain about lack of DX12, and UE4 games run very poorly.
Meanwhile I'm getting pretty good performance on Cyberpunk 2077 with nearly all the settings maxed out.
I am pretty disconnected from this videogame series, is Oblivion now the best looking game from Bethesda? (It should be as it is the most recent game I suppose) Would you recommend it over Skyrim graphical and gaming/story wise? Would a new Skyrim remastered game with these assets would be near the horizon? lol.
As much as I like Skyrim, I don’t think there’s a general consensus that the earlier games were better written.
Personally, until I played Phantom Liberty, the Shivering Isles was the best expansion I had ever played for any game. I’ll leave it to you to discover, if you get the game, but allow me to say it is delightful and different and a ton of fun.

Decisions, decisions: get this for my ps5, or wait until my pc build is done. Prob the latter, just need a couple more things and I've waited this long, what's another couple weeks.
Honestly, taking into account how important modding is for the TES serie, I'd say it's better to aim PC for this one.

I got it, and despite the performance issues everyone is talking about, the game is a wonderful trip down nostalgia lane. And unlike the original, they fixed a lot of the annoyances like the clunky UI.
Oblivion, when last met you introduced horse armor! Now you return to look upon the ruined game landscape that you have brought! I loved you like a brother, Oblivion! You were the Chosen One!
Funny enough the deluxe edition includes horse armor lol
Looks shit.
Sweet, never played it and have it in my backlog, so a remaster helps :)
I’m pretty curious about this. I tried Oblivion a few years ago having never played it before and it just felt too clunky for me to want to play much past the tutorial. Which is a shame because I’ve heard there’s a lot of cool stuff in the game I didn’t get to see.
If this makes things feel better to play and is a good all around remaster, maybe I’ll pick it up and give it another go.
Oblivion was the first game I ever put 100+ hours into, but every time I've tried to get back into it over the years, it was just too clunky and awkward. Bethesda games always age poorly.
But this remaster is fucking incredible and I very irresponsibly wasted an entire day yesterday playing it. They fixed and polished it so it feels like a modern game again. The only issue I had was poor performance in a lot of areas, like frequent drops down to 40 fps on my powerful PC. I'm hoping a patch will fix that soon.
Admittedly, my opinion is heavily clouded by nostalgia, so temper your expectations in case my comment actually convinces you to buy it. It's a great game, but it's smaller and somewhat clunkier than Skyrim.
