“Experience ‘Oblivion Remastered’ in VR on PC with This New Mod”

Hey, so, like, guess what just happened in the gaming world? The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion got a whole facelift. Yep, a remaster. It’s like they slapped on a new coat of paint and spruced it up for us on PC and consoles. And wouldn’t you know it, VR folks are already poking and prodding at it. Typical, right?

So, they moved Oblivion to Unreal Engine 5. It’s kinda like swapping out square wheels for round ones — everything just rolls better. Textures are slick, characters are less blocky, and the lighting? Wow, it’s pretty spot on now. Modders are probably rubbing their hands together like, “Oh boy, what can we mess with now?” Thanks to a mod, ‘Praydog’s UEVR’, they actually can.

Now, if you’re into the nitty-gritty, UEVR’s packing some serious features: 6DOF head movement, full 3D — the whole shebang. But, and it’s a big but, you gotta tinker a bit. Like, good luck if you think it’s plug-and-play. I stumbled upon this YouTube dude, ‘LunchAndVR’. He’s deep into it, tweaking all those settings to make the game, well, cooperate.

Oh! Almost forgot, there’s a gameplay video floating around, showing LunchAndVR’s early mods. It’s like watching someone wrestle hardware until it gives in. Those early tests? Pretty optimistic. He’s fighting rats and zombies in a dungeon and it’s all dynamic lighting and whatnot. Indoors, it runs like a dream, but once you step outside? Ehhh… bit of a slog.

And about that setup — you’ll need a powerhouse of a computer. The video shows it running on medium graphics with DLSS, using a Quest 3 headset, and this beastly system: Nvidia RTX 4090, Intel Core i9-13900 CPU, and 64GB RAM. If your rig isn’t up to snuff, might wanna sit this one out.

Not gonna lie, things aren’t fully sorted with VR yet. But, adventurous types can dive in with Praydog’s UEVR mod. Maybe borrow a few test profiles from LunchAndVR — he’s got a 6DOF one by someone named ‘Keyser’ and a 3DOF by ‘Pande4360’. Both should help PvE folks not crash their VR systems when they turn their heads too fast.

So, bottom line? You’re gonna need the original Oblivion Remastered. Works whether you got it through Steam or Xbox’s PC Game Pass. Go on, gear up, and dive in. Just maybe pack some patience and, I dunno, track down a dragon while you’re at it.
