Oblivion Patch Causing Issues

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the hiccups-in-tamriel dept.

The much anticipated patch for Oblivion is here, but it has come at a cost. 1up reports on complaints from users about lockups, lagging, and some curious technical problems. From the article: "Even though the patch cleans up a number of glitches quests, many are still upset because it doesn't solve their existing issues. If you've already run into and experienced a glitch quest, there's a good chance the patch will do nothing to fix it; the patch can't fix contaminated saves. Consequently, Bethesda employees have been recommending fans start new characters if they want to experience these quests."

    Is it wrong to be attracted to a topless, female, Orc barbarian who is trying to kill me?
    No, the height of Western Civilization (as shown by Europe) is to make things as nice as possible for those trying to kill you.
    Maybe you should ask the root causes that force the Orc to hate you.
    Maybe more social welfare would help?
    While we can not blame the rape victim, we can certainly blame the murder victim. Especially if the murder victim is non-Orc and male.

    I ment that second like to be as a joke. I realize most people on slashdot (Aka the ones with mod points) don't get jokes and sarcasm like everyone else in the world (aka people without modpoints).
