Oblivion Remastered v1.2 gets a Beta with lots of fixes and optimisations

The difficulty settings should help a ton with people getting too bored about halfway through. That's where you start to steamroll combat in anything but the highest setting, but the highest setting just becomes a slog. So hopefully these new changes can help with that.

Just whatever you do, stay away from the weapon enchanting table ... it breaks the game and renders all combat nonexistant, like it doesn't even exist. So if you do start enchanting weapons, the game just turns into a walking sim / questing / narrative game.

oh man, are you going to force me to go through and trim/cull/reorder my wishlist? Yes I think that's a great idea!

okay, after quite a bit of time, I'm back. Removed a bunch of stuff that either no longer looked interesting or hasn't had any updates in forever (like years time). Here's my wishlist (in no order) (I wish there were an easier way to list/link to this?):

Since MW is in my top10 of all time, it always makes me happy to see this project keep chugging along. It's like going home to your grandmothers house in the summer when I fire it up.

Just want to give a HUGE recommendation to Norco. For any fans of the genre, you should try this one out. So wonderful. Also the soundtrack alone is worth streaming.

Fedora Linux devs discuss dropping 32-bit packages - potentially bad news for Steam gamers

Hmmmmm, I've been trying to keep calm on this topic, but this sentence by Fabio just rubs me the wrong way:

"I expected this to be the case, and was prepared to move the proposed implementation of the Change to a later release."

Soooooo. This was all a show? They (he?) knew it would be shot down just like the whole ubuntu shitshow years ago and they (he?) did it anyway?

Hmmmmmm. I don't think I like that one bit.

^ uhhhhh I don't think so. Are you just not logged in? Because as a logged in user, there is super horny stuff EVERYWHERE just as it's always been on NM.

All you have to do is click on "popular" on the home page, and bam, titties. Same as it's ever been.

Side note: wtf is going on with stellar blade. Wow. It's like horny-mod-apalooza over there. LOL.
