If this gets 1k views ill attempt to beat the main story with this rig. Edit: Thank you for the views and likes! As promised I will attempt to beat this game on this rig, I will play at lower difficulty, I will try to beat it in one sitting. I did explore some of the open world and yea.....its going to be something. ukposts.info/have/v-deo/pqKefG6sn7B-wmg.html it is done.

I can feel my life force slipping away for every loading screen

People forget, this is how it used to be back in the day. We loved every moment of it. Because it was even worse before that!

This is how pc games are meant to be played. Not max settings on the newest hsrdware, but barely getting by on an outdated rig

This needs to be a speedrun category

This is how Skyrim runs on my laptop.

I fast forwarded 2 minutes to get into gameplay and was staring at a frozen frame thinking "damn, that's really slow". Then I decided to skip some more to see at least another frame I realized the video was paused.

Some random fool told me once nobody should play games on notebooks, he doesn't know how true gamers are: if the machine runs, it is supposed to be played.

Fascinated by how there are simply no shadows whatsoever

my mom used that desktop background on our home pc when I was a child in the early 2000's. she died almost 2 years and this reminded me of her :(

the fact that this game even runs and doesnt just die immediately due to a memory exception or something like that is astonishing in itself.

This is like content aimed directly at me. this is exactly my type of thing

Oh my goodness this brought me back! I had an old 2004 hand-me-down windows XP machine when Oblivion came out, and I remember having to install a program to force the graphics lower to optimize fps. It looked exactly like this with that completely flat lighting! I had forgotten about that, thanks for uploading this.

This is what playing Skyrim on PS3 felt like.

it plays flawlessly for a 2006 title, even with potatoe settings

This exact experience is what taught me that computers had different parts that needed to be upgraded

Eastern europe 2000 kids will probably cry for a bit. (As i do)

good god it looks perfect!

I swear to god i thouth my internet was just lagging after 10 seconds

这让我想起了我的童年，尽管它不完美，但浪漫的回忆往往比现在更让人向往。

This is pretty close to my first experience with Oblivion. My laptop was so bad in 2007 that I had to install Oldblivion to make it work. That was when Oblivion’s graphics were state of the art

i played with a huge intergraded graphics laptop back in the day. MEMORIES!

No joke, I have that wallpaper on my desktop right now. God, I wish I was on a beach now… playing Oblivion, obviously.

omg i had that exact background on my pc back in the mid 2000s. i believe it was from a set of wallpapers that came with windows xp

Many, many years ago, I was so determined to play Oblivion on my home PC that I downloaded something called "Oldblivion" that forced the game to look just like this. It was the only way the game would run at all. Those were the days!

That beautiful texture pop-in.

This looks so crunchy, I love it.

The ps3 port of Oblivion ran on 256mb of ram though.

Ah the potato is potatoing. I love it so much, the way the rooms load and unload right in front of you. it's gorgeous. It doesn't even look like the shaders are even attempting to load lmao

Honestly something about Oblivion makes more sense on the lowest possible settings

This is the way you're supposed to play the game. Todd Howard shed a single tear in heaven.

You always knew you were in for a bad time when the opening credits lagged 😅🎉

Reminds me of Half Life 2 with full bright turned on.

Watching at 240p for maximum authenticity

the true oblivion experience 💘 i miss it

I have never in my life seen Oblivion run like this, but It resonates with me on a spiritual level. Reminds me of trying to get Skyrim running on an old eMachine I had as a preteen, all the janky workarounds - but you worked with what you had. Good times.

you just know this whole rig catches fire as soon as he makes it outside

Reminds me of when me and my mam tried modding Oblivion back in 2008 and my Laptop could hardly even run this or World of Warcraft, but I never even cared because... well, it was Oblivion.

ah, just like by brother used to play. The caves were all lit and the world ground textrues were square limited, no blending transition

This takes me back

I remember there was a modded version called "Oldblivion" for lower specs, I had a bad computer so that was how I first played the game

As soon as the game starts I thought "Holy shit, it actually runs at a stable 60 framera-" Then you turned around.

This was my Oblivion experience back in the day. I didn't mind it as a kid.

This is better than how I played it on my crappy laptop in 2007

Shadows: *non-existent*

OMG I used to play this game like this on my first laptop, good old days. I didn't care about graphics, I was there for the story and the fun. Now, ten years later, I finally have a decent pc and I can play Oblivion at full but I miss those days haha

this... unlocked... a memory...

Wow. This video is a real gate into my childhood.

Bumping for the algo so you end up doing this

I remember I first played using the “Oldblivion” mod because my old GPU couldn’t run HD graphics, over 15 years ago.

The menus look great!

Reminds me playing oblivion for the first time 15fps to 20fps on a bottom of the barrel slow hard drive on a Pentium 4.

This is exactly the experience I remember having the first time I played this game on my PC at the time.

Wow gaming is evolving at a rapid level. Cannot believe this is ingame!

oh this is beautiful

From Desktop to gameplay in less than 3 minutes and loading screens under 30 seconds? Truly the golden age of gaming

Now ot looks beautiful.

wow, that draw distance XD

All things considered, it looks and runs better than I'd expect.

incredible

bro i just witnessed my childhood the first sight of windows xp and the lagginess its juts oooweee...i miss it but at the same time I'm happy where I am lmaooo

goodness

My Xbox 360 had that exact same audio stuttering with the Bethesda logo. I always wondered what was behind it because it ran the rest of the game very well.

Ngl, this makes me miss windows xp

That 15 ft draw distance

it works

Rocking this game on max settings with gt640 + i5 3570

Yes! My poor ass childhood trying to run AoE III on a discount Compaq. Truly the “uphill both ways in the snow” of our age.

Had this running on an Intel Celeron 733MHz back in the day.

Reading the title alone all I could feel was PAAAAAAIIINN!!!

Playable👍🏻

can it run crytis

Oblivion on gamecube

You can't even open a browser tab nowadays without it using 250mb of ram

I remember using this no-shadows mod on my Pentium E5200 PC without gpu! I would love to go back to Oblivion but its too old though. Can't wait for Skyblivion

I would play the F out of morrowind, daggerfall, quake and thief on that rig. And since I'm an artist too I'd load up open canvas 6. I had a laptop for the longest time when I was a teen and those were p much the only games/art program I could play xD

Damn I wish it looked this good on Xbox back in the day.

IT WILL LOAD... EVENTUALLY

Good old days, man.

i recently made a cool build for windows 2000, Pentium 4 2gz with geforce 6200 GT 256mb with 512mb of ram. runs game pretty solid

Its just missing the sound of the computer struggling to boot it up lol

lets make this happen

does oldschool rs still work for you on XP? i login and it goes to a black screen now

3:07 how did you get that idle pose?

mfs in 2006: THIS IS GROUNDBREAKING, SO LIFELIKE I CAN BARELY TELL THE DIFFERENCE

it's charming

I remember when i first played oblivion i had 256 MB Ram, then upgrade to 768MB and game was a lot better.

ah mat fullbright on and low res oblivion, brings me back thanks

Way different specs, but this reminds me of when my friends managed to get crysis to run on a computer on something that had no business doing so, and it basically looked not much better than this

It played pretty good considering the hardware. First time i tried playing i had to use a mod to nerf the graphics further than the lowest base settings just to get it to run.

Holy shit.... Everest. Nostalgia flood 😂

The struggle is real.

I did at least one full playthrough on settings like this.

looks alright

video card has more ram than mb, nice. is it modded? why theres no shadows and lod is 5 steps? i was playing it backthen on core2duo and integrated graphics, 5-10fps on average, but image was not that bad

1:04 I know this dance

Runs better than Starfield on PC.

First time I played oblivion was in 2007 ish on a 2003 computer like this. Except vram was 256mb. I could only play with EVERYTHING on lowest setting so there was fog everywhere and even then it lagged a bit. I remember ending up in Bravil and thinking what is this? Ugly city, rivers everywhere and fog, never playing this!

I've ran Morrowind on a Pentium 3, and that isn't too smoothly. And while the 8400 GS isn't an amazing card, pairing it with a tiny Celeron is cruel even for that card. And we need to see the outside. I want to know how low the draw distance can be set and how far the framerate can dive

bro , pudo tener el juego abierto junto con el programa para grabar , re genial
