Warning: Spoilers for Oblivion’s Thieves Guild questline lie forward.
Maintain on, let me clarify earlier than you haul me again to that cell reverse Valen Dreth. Bethesda’s asking Oblivion Remastered gamers for enter on stuff they’d wish to see improved concerning the sport, with a entire Discord channel devoted to this handy moaning.
Overlook 99% of it, although, there’s one bug I’ve encountered to this point that I reckon wants fixing earlier than anything, as a result of if I hadn’t been in a position to get a basic trick from the unique to work, it might need locked me out of ending one of many sport’s greatest faction questlines.
So, you listening – or studying, to be lingustically exact – Bethesda? Proper, right here we go. I am taking part in Oblivion Remastered and dealing my manner via the Thieves Guild questline, you realize, cos I am cool so I’ve prioritised that and the Darkish Brotherhood over these nerds on the Mages and Fighters Guilds.
I get halfway via a quest in Leyawiin known as ‘Ahdarji’s Heirloom’, which duties me with stealing a hoop from Countess Alessia Caro. She places it in a jewellery field in her quarters when she goes to sleep, so all I’ve gotta do is sneak in there via a secret passage, simple peasy. Besides, once I get there, the ring is not within the field.
The ring hasn’t spawned, although the Countess could be very a lot asleep within the mattress I’ve needed to shuffle round to get to it. It is a basic Oblivion bug from 2006 repeating within the remaster, and one of many ones which may have some penalties past providing you with fun, until yow will discover a manner round it.
Fortunately, a fast google reveals I am not the primary individual to run into this within the remaster – loads of individuals have, they usually’ve handily examined a few of the basic tips individuals used to drag to resolve this concern within the OG Oblivion. Naturally, as a result of it is only a contemporary paintjob for a janky outdated automotive that appears fairly comparable underneath the hood, the primary ones work simply tremendous within the remaster.
So, after depositing some beer within the field, shifting digicam views, making a handbook save, reloading it, and ready in-game 24 hours (not essentially in that order), I handle to get the ring to spawn. I am glad, as a result of the opposite choice was the can of worms that may be attempting to bodily block a Rely who’ll name the guards if he spots me from sleeping on the best hand facet of the mattress.
Please, Bethesda. I am begging you, repair this. Go away all of the humorous stuff, and eliminate the issues that trigger you a minor coronary heart assault cos you may not get to put on the horny Grey Cowl of Nocturnal.
