To anyone who's decently familiar with Oblivion:

I am new and I like to read up on the game and maximize my ability to understand what I have to do and stuff before I do them.

I read that if I progress the main quest a bit, it could be hard to handle the enemies near the gates at lower levels.

Is that the case and if so, what would be a decent level to go to Kvatch and start to do the gates?🤔

Thanks for any advice anyone can give me.😁

@ppb1701 @beaware.social 😂 We'll have to wait and see. Roman isn't scheduled to show up till early June, possibly after Money in the Bank.

@joe BOOM!😂

BlueSky Decentralized* Social Media

*Kinda decentralized, but not really.😂

@the_spc Absolutely same. That's one of the reasons I don't play World of Warcraft, beyond the absolute necessity to group with other un-social players.

@the_spc I'm sorry, friend.

Maybe there will be a mod or something that can do that eventually.

@the_spc PS. I asked ChatGPT about it and it unfortunately doesn't look hopeful.😬

It's kinda long but here's what it says:

Oblivion Remastered (2025) introduces several accessibility enhancements over the original game; however, it currently lacks comprehensive features specifically designed for blind or low-vision players.

Available Accessibility Features

The remaster includes a range of accessibility options aimed at improving the gaming experience for a broader audience:
• Adjustable Difficulty Settings: Five levels of difficulty to cater to various player preferences.
• Aim Assist: Helps with targeting during combat.
• Audio Customization: Separate volume controls for different sound categories, allowing players to balance audio elements to their liking.
• Field of View (FOV) Sliders: Adjustable for both first-person and third-person perspectives.
• Text and Subtitle Scaling: Options to increase the size of in-game text and subtitles, though some users have noted that the largest settings may still be relatively small on larger screens.
• Full Button Remapping: Supports customization of controls, facilitating the use of accessibility controllers like the PlayStation Access.  

These features enhance the game’s accessibility for players with various needs, including those with partial vision.

Limitations for Blind Players

Despite these improvements, Oblivion Remastered does not currently offer specific features tailored for blind players, such as:
• Screen Reader Support: No integration with screen reading software to narrate on-screen text or menus.
• Text-to-Speech Functionality: Absence of in-game narration for dialogues or descriptive text.
• Audio Navigation Cues: Lack of spatial audio cues to assist with navigation and interaction within the game world. 

These omissions mean that fully blind players may find the game challenging to navigate and play without additional assistance.

Community Feedback

Discussions within the gaming community reflect these limitations. For instance, a visually impaired player expressed concerns about the accessibility options in Oblivion Remastered, highlighting the need for features like UI text scaling and screen reader compatibility. 

Conclusion

While Oblivion Remastered makes strides in accessibility compared to its predecessor, it falls short in providing comprehensive support for blind players. The current features may benefit those with partial vision, but the absence of screen reader support and audio navigation tools limits the game’s accessibility for fully blind individuals. 

@the_spc Makes sense lol.

I can only handle one account at a time. I forget other accounts exist. Lol.

@the_spc I wish I could help.😬

Maybe make a post about it, asking if anyone knows about blindness accessibility options?

If you do, make sure to add hashtags so it can be found easily.

@the_spc Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion has been remastered and released on all major platforms. It's quite amazing!

At least HBO knows how to laugh at themselves I guess. :kek:

@ppb1701 did you watch Raw on Monday?🤔

@ppb1701 @beaware.social Rumor says he's gonna show up on the Raw after SNME, but I don't know if that checks out either if they plan on having the match at SummerSlam.🤔

@ppb1701 Facts. It's annoying as hell. I could see if there's a way to use console commands to change things later on, but obviously that's far from ideal.😫

I kinda hate the fact that I can't respec my character in Oblivion Remastered.

I don't like to look up the most optimized builds, especially as a new player. However, I also don't like to get to the "endgame" just to realize that I could have a way better character if i didn't fuck it up.🤦♂️

Hopefully a mod comes out for respec at some point.😫

@TheLastOfHisName Attack? Nah...I'll do it later.😂

If you do this consistently and it always negatively effects your life, you might have ADHD.😬

@FrenzyBiscuit Yeah but I've been so busy I haven't had time to actually use it yet.🤷♂️

@joe 🤣these are great!

Great work, friend!

@maskedscheduler Ahh...you planned for the Goldberg wildcard.😉
