Oblivion Remastered Fans Desperately Trying—and Failing—to Save the Emperor
Before the unveiling of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim in 2011, Uriel Septim was a recurring character throughout the series, dating all the way back to the PC launch of The Elder Scrolls: Arena in 1994. As a steadfast guardian of Tamriel’s provinces, this emperor finds himself in peril right from the get-go in Oblivion: Remastered. Slipping away from assassins through a hidden passage in your prison cell, he manages to escape, offering a lucky break that even players who hadn’t delved into the story of the first three games could appreciate.
