Looking at Steam it looks like they locked the expansions behind the deluxe edition?

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 19 points 3 days ago

Every publication I've read says the DLCs are all included in the base game. Deluxe adds new cosmetics, OST, and an art book.

This is what it says for the deluxe edition on the PS Store:

"Upgrade* from the digital base game to The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Deluxe Edition* to receive:

  • Unique digital Akatosh and Mehrunes Dagon Armors, Weapons, and Horse Armor Sets

  • Digital Artbook and Soundtrack App

*Base game required, sold separately"

Soundtrack App

Bruh...

Wow, they literally added more horse armor lol

Nope, the old DLC is available in the base game. The Deluxe edition adds some new armor (and yes, new horse armor) but isn’t necessary to access the old DLC.

~~Yep, they did…it’s pretty shitty.~~

~~Though it’s only $10 upgrade, whether you choose now or later. But still, for a 19 year old game, come on man.~~

Apparently I was reading this wrong.

Here’s the poster from Steam

Thanks for the correction. I was reading the poster on Steam incorrectly, it seems.

So all the stuff on the left is in the base purchase but all the stuff on the right is the extras in the deluxe

It's poorly done, possibly to trick people into thinking they have to get the Deluxe version to get the expansions.
