Today's game is some more of the oblivion remaster. I did some more of the Mage's guild quest today and the specific quest took me a to a ruin. I have very vivid memories of this specific dungeon because of the puzzle from a few years ago when i did a brief playthrough with a friend. It was very tedious having to open the inventory and find the book again. Luckily i found out i could quick bind a book which made this a lot faster. It did take me a while though to realize i had to cast a spell on the Central Pillar and not the crystals. And i did it all for a Elven Helmet that the mage's guild wants for some reason. Not even a Magic one. Just a plain old Helmet.

I'm not usually a fan of these ruins, or dungeons in general. But damn does the remaster makes these dungeons look pretty. The blue light beams and shadows are a gorgeous effect.

There was also a quest before this which had me meant the count of the area. Dude came outside to meet me and he's a vampire, and i have to say i'm a big fan of the Vampire designs in the Remake. He has a very corpse like design which i like. His lips and mouth being blue are my favorite part. I've heard on players it sadly just makes their face look lethargic which is a little disappointing but it is cool to see the NPCs get a cool design. I accidentally left the poor guy idle in conversation while i answered a call for a bit. He was probably worried the sun was going to rise before we finished talking.

The count's castle had this painting up of an painting in the old oblivion style which i think is kind of neat. I stopped to look at it for a bit. I can't figure out who it's supposed to be but I like to imagine that old Oblivion is a stylized art style in the remaster's world. It's a fun thought. Maybe if the game existed it'd be kind of like that movie about Vincent van Gogh called Loving Vincent?
