Elder Scrolls IV: Forgot to Remake Paid Horse Armor DLC again
Blog Andrew Joseph 23 Apr , 2025 0

In 2006, Bethesda was at a high point in the success of the Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. To get fans back to Cyrodiil, developers started releasing small paid DLC packages for the game. The company hardly knew the company was caught in controversy when its first DLC backpack in April: Horse Armor.
Even if you weren't following the game at the time, you might have heard of the controversy about horse armor. Although DLC certainly has front armor, Oblivion's Horse armor bag (This cost 200 Microsoft points on 360 markets, which was about $2.50 at the time) This really caused a sensation as the armor was essentially useless.
Now, in 2025, cosmetic upgrades like this are common, making Bethesda a little cheeky when it launches Elder Scrolls IV: Forgot to remake Once again, the player is charged an additional fee for horse armor. As part of the remake and shadow drop of today’s unveiling, we learn that the Forgotten restoration will include both the basic and the deluxe version. Pay an extra $10 on the base game price, Deluxe Edition buyers will get new missions for unique armor, extra weapon options, digital art books and soundtrack apps…yes, again. To be precise, two groups.
For the most part, fans seem to be stride forward. We are from an era when cosmetic DLCs like Horse Armour are a shocking thing, and we will be paying for pure cosmetic upgrades at this point, which is shocking. Mat Piscatella, an analyst at Circana In Brusky pointed outVideo game consumers in the United States spent more than $10 billion on digital add-ons for PC and console video game in 2024.
In fact, most people just find Bethesda interesting It seems very comfortable In what was once a huge scandal.

Honestly, I have to respect it. New players don't know this, but again mentioning Horse Armor as a paid DLC, a subtle mention of their solo ruining the industry by selling it for the first time. I kneel down, Todd. https://t.co/bgwbwl3vyx

Forgot to remake not only has horse armor, but also mods already. A few mods enter popular websites Nexus mods Just a few hours after forgetting, although most of these are small customization options.
