Oblivion Remasterd Deluxe Edition is reminding us all of the fall of gaming.

All of the original DLC, including the infamous horse armour, is included in the base game. The Deluxe edition adds OST, art book, and some new armours, weapons, and horse gear that are new to the remaster.

So I understand correctly that the deluxe edition contains even more horse armour?

Because if, that is absolutely hilarious.

Yes that is correct. You can get a couple of unique armor sets from some new quests, some fancy new weapons, and 2 new sets of horse armor.

Its honestly really fucking funny.

Correct, it does contain exclusive horse armour.

Good to know, but that is EXTREMELY not how the Steam page reads:

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered Deluxe Edition includes:

  • Digital base game

  • New quests for unique digital Akatosh and Mehrunes Dagon Armors, Weapons, and Horse Armor Sets

  • Digital Artbook and Soundtrack App

  • Shivering Isles and Knights of the Nine story expansions

  • Additional downloadable content: Fighter’s Stronghold, Spell Tomes, Vile Lair, Mehrune’s Razor, The Thieves Den, Wizard’s Tower, The Orrery, and Horse Armor Pack

Both the text and the image seem deliberately engineered to equivocate about this, which IMO sucks a lot more than actually selling some horse cosmetics as a ha-ha joke thing.

The Deluxe edition does have all those things. It's just that they are not all unique to the Deluxe edition. It is not unusual in my experience for releases with multiple editions to list everything in that edition, even if lesser editions also contain some of those things.
