This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This is a bit dishonest. You can clearly see in the screenshot that the sun is low in the sky, thus the darker/somewhat washed out tones. When it's high in the sky, the color really isn't that much different than the original, albeit obviously not as vivid. Whether the vivid/bright color of the original Oblivion is better than the remaster or not is purely subjective; I happen to prefer the newer aesthetic a lot more.
I agree with you, the remaster looks really nice. I dont feel it's washed-out at all. The only thing that freaks me out a little is how every NPC's mouth is a little too wide for their face now. Just a little.
For some reason the games difficulty being lowered dramatically has made me more judge mental of the graphics upgrade. Like they should only upgrade the graphics if they are going to get the gameplay right.
I did fix the difficulty thing with a mod though so its not like its unplayable.
