One final way in which The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered improves upon the original is by adding more sound effects, haptic feedback, and visual effects to each flight. These blood splatters, controller vibrations, and metal-clinging sounds are a small touch, but make everything feel all the more lively.

Bethesda said in a message on X that the goal of this remaster was to present the original “as you remember it playing it, but seen through today’s technology.” By looking at all of these improvements, it’s clear Bethesda did just that. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered still feels a lot like the original; it just looks and plays a lot more like a modern game now.
