Physics in TES 4: Oblivion still amazes fans — gamer sets off a book domino chain and racks up 57,000 upvotes

Bethesda’s games are known for their detailed (if sometimes buggy) physics systems, and Oblivion Remastered is no exception. Recently, Reddit user Muaxh03 showed off the updated RPG’s capabilities with a domino effect made entirely of books.

The gamer spent 6–7 hours carefully spawning and lining up dozens of books. To avoid interruptions, they had to disable all NPCs: “I would lose my mind if there was NPCs walking around,” Muaxh03 wrote.

The post has already racked up over 57,000 upvotes. Users praised both the video and the creator’s patience — it took several tries to get the perfect take.

Interestingly, two years ago Muaxh03 pulled off a similar stunt in Starfield, using sandwiches as dominoes.

As a reminder, Bethesda is currently working on The Elder Scrolls 6, which was first announced back in 2018. So far, fans believe the game will be set in Hammerfell, but there’s still no release date.
