The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Fans Surprised After Discovering New Content After Years of Playing

Oblivion has given longtime fans a chance to uncover fresh content after years of playing the Bethesda RPG. However, the remaster mostly enhances the game technically and adds just a few new quests for new gear, but these new quests can only be accessed if you buy the Deluxe Edition of the game. Essentially, this updated version is the same game that was launched in 2006 on PC and Xbox 360. Despite this, Oblivion is packed with content, some of which is easy to overlook unless you explore every hidden corner. Consequently, many dedicated Oblivion players were unaware of the Adventurer aspect until they learned about it through The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

In a Reddit post, one Elder Scrolls enthusiast mentioned that they’ve been replaying Oblivion at least once a year since 2013, but it wasn’t until the recent remaster that they came across an NPC adventurer for the first time while playing. The title of the post reads: “After playing this game annually since 2013, I’ve just met the NPC adventurer for the very first time.

The article includes a video (you can find it below) showing the gameplay moment when the player meets the Adventurer in a dungeon clean-up. It’s worth mentioning that this interaction isn’t something fresh or unexpected; it has been recognized since the initial game launch. However, the high engagement of the post – making it one of the most popular on the Oblivion subreddit – indicates that many players were unaware of the existence of this non-player character (NPC). In addition, some believed there was only a single instance of this character, and they were taken aback to learn there are multiple Adventurers in the game.

I’ve been playing since 2007, and as far as I know, the only adventurer I’m familiar with is the Orc Adventurer who shows up in different armor levels across Cyrodiil. Is this a new one?

For those new to the storyline, characters known as “Explorers” have been dispatched at the behest of Gortwog, with a mission to discover hidden riches and elevate the prestige of Orsinium. Regardless of their background, they will consistently be two levels below the players, and can take on roles as warriors, spellswords, or battlemages.

When adventurers cross paths with players, they come off as amicable. Nevertheless, these adventurers tend to plunder the locations they’re in quite frequently, making it essential to eliminate them if one desires the valuable loot they leave behind.

Continuing our tradition, don’t hesitate to share your thoughts below. By the way, did you know that there’s a remaster of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion coming up? For more details, check it out here.
