At the risk of feeling like an elderly Rose at the end of Titanic, it’s been a long time since Skyrim came out. The wait for The Elder Scrolls VI has been even longer. I was just 11 years old when I saw a copy of the game on PS3 and was enamored enough with the cover art to give it a try. Now, 15 years later, I’m 26 and still waiting. However, as someone who never got to play the original, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is at least giving me my Bethesda fix for the time being. And you can join me in Cyrodiil, as the game has hit its lowest price yet on PC.
Imprisoned in a cell and seemingly destined to rot, your luck changes when Emperor Uriel Septim VII arrives with his guards and uses the secret exit hidden in your jail. As luck would have it, you’ve been pardoned—lucky you. Not so lucky is the fact that the Emperor’s sons have been killed, and the assassins are after him, too. Now you’re tagging along with death chomping at your heels. Fortunately, you’re not dying today. I can’t say the same for Uriel, who gifts you the Amulet of Kings before shuffling off this mortal coil. With your freedom secured and the Emperor dead, the world seems more open than ever. That is, until the Daedra invade Tamriel.
