Oblivion Remastered: Do Kvatch Quest Early, Warn Veterans

by Samuel May 14,2025

With the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda's beloved open-world RPG is once again captivating millions of players. As fans celebrate this revival, they're eager to share their wisdom with those who might have missed out on the original experience two decades ago.

It's important to note that Oblivion Remastered is a remaster, not a remake. As such, many of the original game's quirks remain intact. One such quirk, often cited as a frustration, is the game's level scaling system. This system, which the game's original designer recently labeled a "mistake," has been retained in the remastered version. It means that the loot you acquire is directly tied to your character's level at the time of acquisition. Similarly, the enemies you encounter will scale according to your level.

This aspect of the game has prompted seasoned Oblivion players to offer fresh advice to newcomers, particularly focusing on Castle Kvatch.
