I recently spent an afternoon getting the original Oblivion to work optimally on Steam Deck. Despite being “playable” out of the box, it’s kinda not: the vanilla PC version of Oblivion lacks gamepad support, meaning gamepad glyphs aren’t present. While the Steam Deck’s community controller layouts tab is a godsend for situations like this, it…
Six months after the massive “teraleak” that unleashed literally decades of Pokémon art, design documents, and other development material upon the world, Nintendo is trying to force Discord to give up the identity of the person behind it.

The great circle has finally closed. Way back in 2016 I was given a task: find the ugliest NPC in The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. Today I’m setting out to do it again in Newblivion, or as it’s bafflingly and officially called, Oblivion Remastered. As Tyler wrote last week, he was a bit apprehensive about…
