They didn't fix shit that the unofficial patch fixed years ago. Like actual broken things just stayed broken... I did the main story mission in Kvatch and the NPC you followed into battle after you clear the oblivion gate got stuck in a courtyard. I looked up the issue and apparently it is a bug from the original game that the unofficial patch fixed... They know fixes exist, they just spent literally 0 time implementing them knowing "we" will do it for free...

I was told jank was left in specifically because that's a huge part of Oblivion in the first place.

Part of me appreciates it. Also it's just using the same code from the original game, so I guess they wouldn't want to fuck with it too much. Duct tape and voodoo, after all.

Haha that happened to me. Maybe we'll get a patch for some of the stuff that actually breaks the game. I love some of the quirks they left in though, like the voice acting screwups.
