I mean, I have Oblivion, why do I need it again?

Just like they keep trying to sell me Skyrim "Special Edition" or whatever the heck it's called. I already bought it. Long ago. When it first came out. I can still play it just fine. You know, just like Oblivion. And Morrowind. And Daggerfall. And Arena.

I did my first Oblivion gate today in the remaster and it was as fun as I remember, but I have to be honest I kept going back and forth mentally today on how much of the full game I am actually going to play. It's no doubt a good remaster (although the almost washed out fields in comparison to the 360 version hits me like a ton of bricks every time I leave a city or cave) of a good game but I'm for sure not going to, or have have the time to play it for a couple hundred hours again, at least not anytime soon.

I will probably close all Oblivion Gates I actually see, do all main guilds and daedric shrines, do the DLC but I dunno' about beyond that. Also, despite what I said before, this combat after a few hours is really not very good, 200 hours of charge attacks and parrying probably aint it. We'll see how much I can integrate spellcasting into the mix I guess, but if you're not sneak attacking and using the bow I feel like you're probably playing yourself.

The fact that Expedition 33 is out in a few hours isn't helping either.
