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."

    I found another patch that is causing issues with my Oblivion gaming experience. I installed the Topless Females patch, but now I can't play the game without my pants feeling excessively tight :-( Is it wrong to be attracted to a topless, female, Orc barbarian who is trying to kill me? Oh, and those Khajiit women *froths at the mouth*
