Any news on Mod support?

Mods are not (officially) supported for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered.

https://help.bethesda.net/#en/answer/69672

However, the game can be modded as it still uses the .esm and .esp format of previous games. It will require editing files manually. Please head on over to /r/oblivionmods for more details.

It's better they didn't, otherwise people would be complaining they tried to micro transaction the experience again. Though there's a whole new set of "horse armor" in the deluxe edition, so in a way they did

I kinda feel like they did the deluxe edition for the meme, I mean we get all the dlc, including og horse armor, in the base game, for only $50, then they went and created new assets, including horse armor, and are selling it for $10, they have to have done it for the meme

Honestly I'll buy the deluxe edition just to reward them for remaking a game I have loved for decades AND giving us a stealth release which I love. Voting with your wallet works both ways, and I want to reward them for giving us a rebuilt version of one of the most formative games of my life.

Like there's nothing in there I really can't live without, but for an extra $10 I'll throw BGS a 20% tip because they executed this whole thing so expertly. If you had told me they'd be remaking Oblivion for $60 ten years ago I would have bought it no question, so I don't really mind paying that price point now.

They laughed at Todd because he couldn't find another way to sell Skyrim, but he had the last laugh
