Birds fly, the sun shines, water is wet, and Bethesda games get unofficial patches. There's Morrowind's Patch for Purists, the Yukichigai Patch for New Vegas (an Obsidian game, but Bethesda's engine down to its bones), even a Community Patch for Starfield. This is an immutable law of the universe, and not even wrapping original Oblivion in an Unreal Engine 5 layer makes it any less true.

So I doubt anyone was too surprised when a mod by an author named Arthmoor called the Unofficial Oblivion Remastered Patch – UORP popped up on Nexus Mods just one week after Oblivion Remastered launched on April 22. What might be surprising, if you're not all that wired into the Bethesda mod scene, is how angry that made everyone.

Also, Arthmoor is a cunt and people generally dislike him for how IP-protective he is over his mods, including these garbage patches

I didn't even read the article I'm just familiar with this exact bullshit, Nexus users made a big push like 3 years ago of dumping his ass, basically anything his mods do are done better elsewhere by people who support Cathedral style modding

Is he the one that gets pissed if a secondary mod changes anything in his mod?
