Oblivion Remastered troubleshooting
The exception code you are getting appears to indicate some code is trying to execute something very low level (e.g. direct device access) when it isn't allowed.
This isn't a widespread issue, so it seems reasonable to assume that it is specific to your machine.
My guesses are:
Corrupt game files, try deleting the user data for the game. Not sure where that lives.
Corrupt install but I think you've addressed that.
Corrupt windows, a scan disk check might repair something.
Corrupt drivers:
Fresh install of GPU drivers, using amd's tool or ddu.
Update chipset drivers if there are any.
Disable or uninstall anything that controls additional devices. E.g. led or fan controllers like Armoury crate or MSI afterburner.
Any other app that injects itself into the process. Game overlay, antivirus. Amd adrenaline does this, as can steam and gamebar.

What's the difference between a hostage and a prisoner?

I think the implication was that the prisoners are actually hostages too.

One thing to remember is that the push to Linux is a preemptive act of self preservation, so that will not falter unless they change strategy. Gaben talked years ago about not being beholden to Microsoft to host their platform and seeing the introduction of a Microsoft app store + locked down apps as trouble on the horizon. The fact that Linux is what the community wants is a happy coincidence, companies are not your friends.

How else can you judge what direction they might go in? If you like the projects they worked on in the past does it not make it more likely that you'll like their next project? Effectively we are getting a merger of two of the better publishers that are going independent from more corporate overlords? Maybe I'm being overly optimistic...

Gaming PC for my Hubby. I wanted to surprise him on his 30th birthday but not sure if I picked the correct parts. If you can make it a bit cheaper that would be awesome!

Valve forces price parity with all platforms. So if they have lower charges, that saving cannot be passed on to the customer and so stops price competition.
