Imagine working for over a decade to port oblivion to the skyrim engine and then it drops in a much newer engine out of nowhere.

It's going to be shit like modding Cloud's buster sword into the game. In OG Oblivion, I had shitloads of new towns and quests modded in to really fill out the emptier parts of the map, tons of new enemy types, way more active roads, shitloads of extra quests, whores who would suck you off on command, etc. I doubt anything near that scope is going to be possible. Or technically possible eventually, but the number of people who can do it without tools will be extremely limited. It's going to be more like the mod scene for FF7 Remake or Cyberpunk than OG Oblivion.

Edit:there’s already a script extender on nexus

Perhaps I should rescind that "I lost the Gen" claim

Pro tip: save before you leave the sewers and then you edit your character when you want without redoing the tutorial

I’ll give this a shot at some point a while from now if they’ve fixed the enemy level scaling. After playing the Game of the Generation (Kingdom Come Deliverance 2) not sure I have that appetite for another open world game this year.

Just finished Kingdom Come 2 (which was great) so going to play this next.

Did you play KCD2 yet?

I don't have a current gen console or a gaming rig. My plan was to get something when TES6 comes out. Maybe even skip this console gen entirely.

This release is tempting me. This might screw up my plans to just wait a few more years for TES6.

Think they'll release this for Switch 2?

My PS4 backlog is big enough, other than this game I have no desire for a PS5.

and morrowind is much better than this

1. Face-ripping crypto short-squeeze

2. Oblivion Remastered

3. And the chef's kiss, going to the steam forums for said game and seeing based alphas out protesting "Body Type 1 & 2" in full fucking force critical mass with intensity I've never seen for any other game, reminding me that the tide has turned and righteousness is ascendant. Praise be to the Lord on high...the king of kings...Jesus Christ.

-On an overclocked 5090, 4K every setting fully maxed with DLAA, it runs in the 50s in the overworld. Framegen bumps that up to 110ish. Dropping down from DLAA to DLSS quality brings it to 150

-Game looks great...like you REMEMBER Oblivion looking (its PC visuals were elite for the time), although not as good as one would think given that it strains a 5090. Only really bad thing is lack of HDR which is mandatory for high-end visuals.

-Combat is nice, feels a lot better than the original without being a large departure...EXCEPT that your health fucking regenerates like you're in a Halo game. That concession to "modern audiences" really pissed me off.

-UI is shit and somehow more console-centric than the original. They would have picked up HUGE goodwill reverting to Morrowind's grid-based inventory. And despite further consolizing the UI, they didn't add a character view where you can drag and drop equipment onto slots.

-I got sad when I went into the imperial city. At first it was amazing to see all the old shops remade, but the streets just feel lifeless and desolate without mods. Doesn't help that I'm midway through a Cyberpunk replay intended to flex the 5090 and knock out Phantom Liberty. I'll probably put this on ice for 6-12 months and hope someone puts out a comprehensive overhaul mod. Vanilla oblivion doesn't hold a candle to this:

I'm playing one difficulty harder than default and it's tuned well. At lvl 1, things like solo goblins and mudcrabs are a threat to kill you, as it should be.

grabbing the bundle allowed me to move my 4090 quickly for more than $2k rather than having it depreciate
