"Oblivion Remastered Players Advise Newcomers: Complete Kvatch Quest Early to Avoid Nightmare Difficulty"

With the release of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, Bethesda's beloved open-world RPG has once again captured the hearts of millions of players. As fans reunite to share their excitement, they're also extending a helping hand to newcomers who may have missed out on the original experience two decades ago.

Bethesda has clarified that Oblivion Remastered is a remaster, not a remake, which means it retains many of the original game's quirks, including its controversial level scaling system. This system, which the game's original designer has recently admitted was a "mistake," remains intact in the remastered version. In Oblivion, the level of your character directly influences the quality of loot you find and the strength of the enemies you encounter.

This feature has led seasoned players to offer specific advice to those new to the game, particularly regarding Castle Kvatch. The level scaling system means that visiting certain areas, like Castle Kvatch, at different stages of your character's development can significantly impact your gameplay experience.
