Summary
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered has a TrueGG Rating of 52.9%: the positive share among 2,547 reviews written in the last 180 days by players with 10+ hours. That is 22.3 points below Steam's overall 75.1%, so players who really play the current version are harsher than the headline number suggests (all time: 77.8%).
Reviews written under 2 hours make up 10% of the total, with 59% positive. The early hours do not split opinion much.
In the last 180 days, reviews at 2–5h are 34% positive versus 65% at 100–200h: the more people play, the more they like it.
Negative reviews most often mention crashes and bugs, performance (more than at launch), and updates and the developers. Positive reviews praise how fun it feels.
Among Japanese-language reviews, the TrueGG Rating is 72.0%, 19.2 points above all languages.
Re-weighting reviews by trust signals (playtime, length, how the game was obtained) barely changes the rating (73.9% adjusted), so Steam's number is not noticeably distorted by key giveaways or throwaway reviews.
All figures come from Steam's public review counts, and topics are counted with our published dictionary (no AI). Data as of 2026-10-19.
