The long-awaited release of Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered has finally arrived, capturing the attention of over 120,000 players on Steam within just a few hours. The excitement surrounding this remastered classic from Bethesda has ignited a surge of creativity in the gaming community, particularly in the character creation aspects, where players are eager to build the most grotesque monsters imaginable.
This remaster includes all the downloadable content from the original version, though it currently lacks mod support. However, this absence may change in the future as the community continues to engage with the game.
As a first-party Xbox title, Oblivion Remastered is also available directly through Xbox Game Pass, making it accessible to even more players. The character creator in Oblivion has a long-standing reputation for allowing users to design bizarre and hideous avatars.
Historically, western RPGs have been playgrounds for these creative endeavors, with players often attempting to craft the ugliest characters possible. Bethesda’s games, including Fallout 4, have been particularly popular for this kind of creativity, and Oblivion is no exception.
Since its launch, players have already displayed some truly horrifying creations. For example, a user called DeadAimDino666 shared a character with an unusually wide face and unsettling teeth, while another player named DeCarn showcased a blue-skinned character with a similarly odd appearance.
These posts are garnering significant attention, with fans predicting a revival for the OblivionAbominations subreddit, which has over 13,000 members dedicated to appreciating these monstrous designs. As interest in Oblivion Remastered continues to grow, particularly with the inclusion of the original game’s DLC, many hope for the addition of mod support in the future.
In the meantime, the gaming community is thrilled to explore the creative possibilities and share their horrendous creature designs across various platforms.
