Hey everyone! I’m in my 40s and I never got the chance to play Oblivion when it first came out due to various reasons. Recently, I watched some playthroughs by Vinny Vinesauce, and it really sparked my interest. My PC isn’t the best, but I think I can manage to run it. Any suggestions or tips for a newcomer?

Grab it on Steam! If it runs poorly, you can always refund it. It’s a decent way to test it out without committing, especially with an older title.
If your PC struggles, consider using GeForce Now, provided your internet is up to scratch. But honestly, it’s an old game, so your system should likely handle it just fine!
True, it shouldn’t be an issue; it can run on pretty basic setups.
Pro tip: to level up efficiently, focus on your major skills. Don’t spread yourself too thin; if you can, pick skills you will actually use! You’ll see progress much faster this way. It’s a bit different than how Morrowind worked, so keep that in mind!
I thought the minor skills system was only in Morrowind, but good to know for Oblivion!
Just dive in and enjoy! A lot of people fell in love with Oblivion by just experiencing it without any expectations. That’s the best way to figure out what you like about the game!
I started Oblivion after playing Skyrim too, and it’s such a unique experience! The two games have their differences, but both are amazing in their own ways. Have you played Skyrim before?
I’ve played a bit of Skyrim but didn’t finish it. Oblivion looks like a great game for me to invest some time into!
Yeah, that’s true! My old laptop ran it well enough, so I think you’ll be fine.
