"Oblivion Remastered: Do Kvatch Quest Early, Warns Players"

With the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, millions of players are diving back into Bethesda's iconic open-world role-playing game. The game's dedicated community is eager to share their insights, especially for those who may have missed the original experience two decades ago.

Bethesda has clarified that Oblivion Remastered is indeed a remaster, not a remake. As a result, many of the original game's unique characteristics, including its sometimes frustrating design elements, are preserved. One such element is the game's level scaling system, which has been a topic of much discussion and critique.

The original designer of Oblivion has openly referred to the level scaling system as a "mistake," yet it remains intact in the remastered version. This system ties the quality of loot you find to your character's level at the time of acquisition. Additionally, the enemies you encounter will scale to your level, presenting a consistent challenge throughout your journey.

This aspect of the game has prompted seasoned players to offer specific advice to newcomers, particularly focusing on the importance of Castle Kvatch. Engaging with this location early in the game can significantly influence your experience due to the level scaling mechanics.
