I still don't trust you there. I just knew the horse armor joke. I don't know if it was something if I was so young and naive and video games were very different back then. Yeah. I think maybe I kind of associated this with WoW to a degree. Not that I thought it was WoW, but I put it in that class of PC gamer. I'm like, I'm never going to play that. That's not who I am or whatever.

But I never, ever played this. So I am very interested. I'm downloading Oblivion at my desk right now on the Xbox and, of course, on my ROG Ally X so I can take it anywhere with me with the power of Xbox.

Man, I wish past me wasn't an idiot. I read EGM and IGN and GameSpot religiously. I don't know why I was skipping articles about Oblivion or whatever, where I was just like, oh, this doesn't sound like me. Maybe I didn't know an RPG at the time was a different thing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's great. But you, of course, were a big Oblivion fan.

Yeah, that's the hope, right? Reading from the Xbox Wire, of course, they have a much deeper dive on this, but what I appreciate for them pulling out here is this.

I think that brings in our first super chat of what I imagine is going to be a long topic one. It comes from BF who says, calling this quote unquote remaster is underselling it. This is more than just upscaling graphics and bumping up to frame rate. Why not call it a remake? Snowbike Mike.

basically SGF-style presentation, what you'd expect, where it is the devs talking about this and them talking to Bethesda Game Studios, talking to Virtuos about what this means to them and what they've done and yada, yada, yada.
