Games

I must admit, it's not "just" a remaster, but they somehow managed to capture the spirit of '06 when this first came out PERFECTLY. Picture this: I was still in college and studying at home when Oblivion was finally released. I had been waiting for it for a long time (to my young mind back then) and I remember it was a perfectly beautiful, sunny day and I was home alone with no obvious way to get to a game store.

So I asked my elderly neighbor if I could borrow her clunker of a car for "an errand" and drove over an hour to the nearest game shop.

From the game itself I mostly remember how drop-dead gorgeous everything seemed - and how terrible my PC's performance was back then, especially in outdoors areas.

Today, I experienced the exact same form of awe, followed by the most gorgeous graphics I could imagine, and... 15 fps outdoors. EXACTLY how things used to be when I was a young man.

Magic. Truly a win for Bethesda (after Starfield). Now all I need is a PC who can actually run the damn thing on high with over 60 FPS.
