Oblivion Remasterd Let’s Players Take Back Ability To Be Weird In Character Creation
In what is sure to be one of the biggest and most shocking shadow drops ever, Bethesda shocked the gaming world when they brought back 2006’s The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion remastered in Unreal Engine, completely remastered. Players’ jaws hit the floor as they stared, awestruck, over familiar landmarks and the stark contrast in detail compared to the game’s original version.
One of the first things that players will see on their journey is the remastered face of Emperor Uriel Septum as he recognizes the player character in their prison cell, and the character creation screen opens up for the first time. For some players, this has become one of the most fun and comical parts of the game, and they just can’t get enough of it.
Oblivion’s All-Time Great Character Creator Remastered
It is well known that the Elder Scrolls franchise of games has always had excellent character creation. I believe that Bethesda has set the industry standard that I compare other games like Elden Ring to when playing them for the first time. It is also well known that the highly customizable character creation within these games is easily manipulated to create what players affectionately refer to as abominations.
Oblivion Remastered uses a slider feature to allow players to customize various parts of their created character’s face feature by feature. This slider system on its own has always allowed for plenty of entertainment and comedy, as you can alter and vary your character into a range of emotions and looks.
The remastered version of the game also made it easier for players to experiment with wacky skin tone combinations by allowing the players to choose from a color selector. Now, it’s even easier to give your Imperial character bright red skin or make a purple Orc to bash people’s brains in. My first Oblivion Remastered character was a blue Orc personally.
Fans Have Already Broken the Character Creation
If these kinds of hilarious creations are the kind of thing that amuse you and you’re looking for kindred spirits, I would look no further than Reddit and r/OblivionAbominations. This is the number one place on the internet to go to for wacky and hilarious Oblivion Remastered character creations. They also feature tutorials on how you can cause the game’s slider system to break and allow players to achieve unintended levels of absurdity with their designs.
With these discoveries, fans are doing everything from making Star Wars characters inside the game to completely contorting the facial structure of the character into something out of a nightmare. Almost anything you can think of, from misshapen heads to elongated chins that would put a caricature of Jay Leno to shame. For new Oblivion players just trying the game for the first time with the remaster, this is why you save before the sewer gate. Have fun and maybe create some wacky abominations of your own the next time the emperor looks at you in Oblivion Remastered and recognizes you from his dream.
